Image of tier 'Platonic Round': Spheal. Caption: The platonic ideal of roundness. Effortlessly embodies every quality of what it is, to be RoundALT
Image of tier 'Round Nepotism': Rowlet, Togedemaru, Alolan Sandshrew, Sandshrew. Caption: They are Round, and I like them more than everybody elseALT
Image of tier 'Round': 30~ different pokemon. Caption: Objectively, it is undeniable that these are spheres and therefore RoundALT
Image of tier 'also Round': 26 different pokemon. Caption: Although with some pause for consideration, these too, are spheres and therefore Round ALT

Image of tier 'Disqualified': Geodude + Alolan, Graveller + Alolan, Golem, Forretress, Bronzor, Qwilfish, Quilladin, Glalie, Trapinch, Cacnea. Caption: 1-6. Spherical, but nary a curve in sight, simply too rigid. 7. Easily mistaken for Round, what we have here is in fact a Circle. 8. Spherical, but the spines, just too many. 9. A technical distinction, but this perverse fellow should actually be filed under 'Inflation'. 10. Round in form, but not in spirit. He has merely stumbled upon Roundness, and lacks true understanding. 11. Arguably over half the body mass is Round, but it doesn't quite make the cut. 12. Oh, he's trying his best, alas the spines, the principles must be upheld. But, if he snuck in while my back was turned, I would not protest. ALT

I asked my girlfriend what she considers a Round pokemon to be and she sent me this.
