Scientists say it might be Uranus, because it is basically upside down. They think an asteroid or something hit it, knocking it off its original axial tilt.
Its tilt now is about 98 degrees.
Sometimes Venus is given as the answer, with a tilt of about 177 degrees.
However, it depends on the definitions used. (Sometimes Venus is said to tilt at only about 3 degrees.)

Which planet in your solar system is called The Upside Down planet?
The planet that is called the "Upside Down" planet within our solar system is Venus which has a 177.3 Axial Tilt. Uranus is the planet on its side with about a 97.77 Axial Tilt.
Which planet has the most axial tilt?
Uranus, at 98° axial tilt. Sometimes the answer is given as "Venus" with a tilt of about 177 degrees. It depends how you define "north pole"
What planet looks as if it is lying on its side?
Uranus, with an axial tilt of 97.86 degrees
Which planet has the largest axial tilt?
It's Uranus or Venus. It depends how you define the "north pole" of a planet.
Why does Mars have similar seasons to Earth's?
That's because Mars has an axial tilt which is almost the same as the Earth's. A planet's axial tilt is the most important factor in determining the seasons.
Which planet has no axial tilt?
Mercury. It seems to have an axial tilt of less than one degree.
What planet has the smallest tilt at the axis?
Mercury, with an axial tilt of ~0.01
Which planet has the greatest obliquity?
Obliquityis away of describing aplanet's axial "tilt". The answer is Uranus or Venus, depending on the way the planet's north pole is defined.
Why is one luck to have an axial tilt?
because deep in the crust of the planet, a gas is released which is heavy and is the only gas that sinks, so it forces the planet onto a tilt, which is why it spins on an axial tilt.

Which planet called the tilted planet?
Uranus, because of its (close to) 180 degree axial tilt.
What planet looks as if it is lying on its side?
Uranus, with an axial tilt of 97.86 degrees
Is Uranus the side ways planet?
Yes (its axial tilt is 97 degrees).
Which planet has the largest axial tilt?
