Puzzles: Easiest to Hardest to learn?

Easiest would probably be a 2x2x2.
If you think about it, It's just the corners of a 3x3x3.
On a scale of 1 - 10, I'd rate it 1.

i wouldn't quite call it a 1...if you have never solved a 3x3x3 before, you might not realize that it is just the corners and you can assume all edges and centers are already placed. One might be intimidate by the fact that anytime you turn the cube, you turn 50% of the entire puzzle!
 
Easiest to hardest: (All puzzles that I own)
1x1x1 cube (believe it or not, there are Youtube tutorials on how to solve this cube)
3x6 Whip It (also 5x6 and 6x6 Whip It too)
1x3x3 floppy cube
2x2x2 cube
Missing Link (easy, this puzzle has parity)
Gripple (easy, this puzzle has parity)
Pyraminx
Foam puzzle game (frame to cube and cube to frame)
3x3x3 cube
Megaminx
3x3x3 Void cube (3x3x3 with parity)
4x4x4 cube
5x5x5 cube
6x6x6 cube
7x7x7 cube

No Rubik's Clock? lol
 
Pyraminx is easier too than 2x2x2 O__O I have taught people in how to solve a pyraminx in matter of few minutes... and they had no cubing knowledge

agreed. Pyraminx is one of the more intuitive puzzles. I learned it by myself, and my sister got it the fist time she picked it up as well several people WITHOUT me having to show how to do it.

Agreed. Pyraminx has pretty much 6 movable edges. 2x2 has 4 movable corners. Both make 12 stickers, but the pyraminx can be done much easier intuitively.
 
Easiest : 0x0x0
Easiest that is actually made of some form of matter and is possible to turn: 1x1x2
Hardest: Tony Fishers Rhomball (120 sided)
Hardest that isnt a mod: Dogic or super-square 1
 
Hardest: Tony Fishers Rhomball (120 sided)

I disagree. A petaminx is much harder.

Not really, it just takes longer. I would have to say the square 1 family

A petaminx would be harder because the rhomball solves just like an impossiball.

And a petaminx solves just like a Megaminx. It's just the reduction probably takes a really long time.

So In conclusion,
Petaminx : longer, but not necessarily harder.
Rhomball: Impossiball method ( I think)

So then what is the hardest puzzle?

A petaminx only solves like a megaminx after reduction. A rhomball does not require reduction. Besides, an impossiball is easier than a megaminx.
