What Pokemon has the highest IQ?

I’m guessing Alakazam or Metagross.

Just curious. XD

Metagross:

Metagross has four brains in total. Combined, the four brains can breeze through difficult calculationsfaster than a supercomputer.

Pokedex Entry

Alakazam:

Alakazam’s brain continually grows, infinitely multiplying brain cells. This amazing brain gives this Pokémon an astoundingly high IQ of 5,000.It has a thorough memory of everything that has occurred in the world.

Once again,Pokedex Entry.

Now, the question is:

Which one has higher IQ? Which one is cleverer? Which one is smarter?

To answer this, we need to know what IQ means in terms of a supercomputer. How much IQ does a supercomputer have?

According tothis website,

One of the world’s smartest computers took an intelligence test and scored as well as a four-year-old human being.

Further,

The computer basically can name the dots, but can’t connect them.

From here on, it seems simpler. Basically, Metagross can solve equations, but not necessarily understand them, or know them. On the other hand, Alakazam has the ability to know and remember everything in the world. Implying that not only does it know the equation that Metagross solves within seconds, but alsowhy, and the answer, kind of before hand. Also, the Dex entry talks of infinite brain-cell generating capabilities, that, in my opinion, out-trumps Metagross without a doubt.

Also, Metagross can only analyze, meaning it would probably fail the Turing test (keep in mind, however, it does use this in battles, so it is question of whether it is acting them out as simulations, or as actual strategies. If they are merely simulations, then it is not AI, but given that itacts based on the simulations, itmaybe AI). Now, Alakazam, as we know, has Intelligence of its own, and acts based on strategies it creates, as opposed to Metagross, instead of creating simulations, and discarding those that aren’t beneficial.

tl;dr:Metagross solves stuff, Alakazam already knows the answer.

Had to upload this genius from RareCandyTreatment :3

I would go for Metagross because (Not only I like it) It has FOUR brains. Take that Alakazam. Alakazam’s brain only grows but it doesn’t have 4.So say 1000 IQ for each brain he would only be 4000 IQ.

But then Alakazam had has 5000 so it could be him.

So I rekon overall…Alakazam wins

As far as I know, Alakazam is the only Pokemon that has had their IQ stated. Alakazam’s IQ is also probably the highest because it’s IQ is said to be around/over 5,000. We also know Metagross is very smart because it’s Pokedex entries say that it’s four brains are able to calculate difficult problems faster than a supercomputer. It doesn’t tell Metagross’s exact IQ but it tells that it is very smart.Pokemon that also (probably) have a high IQ (Maybe the highest)Lapras: Some of Lapras’s Pokedex entries state that it is highly intelligent and it can understand human speech.>Its high intelligence enables it to understand human speech. It likes to ferry people on its back.

Uxie: Uxie is the being of knowledge, it is most likely very smart.Arceus: Arceus is the god of Pokemon, God knows everything.Mew: The ancestor of all Pokemon must be very smart.Beldum & Metang: The pre-evolutions of Metagross, Metagross is smart so Metang & Beldum are most likely smart.Abra & Kadabra: Same thing with Beldum & Metang, they are the pre evolutions of AlakazamSlowking: Look at dex entries. (Thanks Astro!!)

Hope I helped!Source1Source2Source3Source4and knowledge.

Metagross Ruby entry: METAGROSS has four brains in total. Combined, the four brains can breeze through difficult calculations faster than a supercomputer. This POKéMON can float in the air by tucking in its four legs

Alakazam Red and Blue entry: Its brain can outperform a supercomputer. Its intelligence quotient is said to be 5,000.

Ok so both outperform a Super computer. Intelligent, huh? The highest IQ in the world is 154. So 5000 is a lot. If each Metang’s iq was 500, it couldn’t beat Alakazam.

So there, Alakazam, way to go.

Actually unlike everyone else I have to disagree completely with everone.

Either Uxie or Arceus.

Arceus because its the god of Pokemon and so knows everything and is ‘all knowing’

Uxie is the Pokemon of wisdom and so technically theoretically has the highest IQ.
