>all sorts of animal-like creatures>computer programs with mass (Porygon line)>cyborgs (Genesect)>ancient golems made of dirt and mysterious energy (Golurk)>literal machines (Magearna)>Space virus (Deoxys)>aliens (Ultra Beasts, Beheeyem, arguably Clefairy)>actual ghosts>sentient sludge, toxic gases and garbage (Grimer, Koffing, Trubbish)>all sorts of human-like creatures>Gods>creatures cloned from fossilsAt this point the only rule seems to be that PokéBalls can catch anything that isn't human, in other words Pokémon are all nonhuman sentient beings.
