Abstract: We introduce a special class of powerful $p$-groups that we call powerfully nilpotent groups that are finite $p$-groups that possess a central series of a special kind. To these we can attach the notion of a powerful nilpotence class that leads naturally to a classification in terms of an `ancestry tree' and powerful coclass. We show that there are finitely many powerfully nilpotent $p$-groups of each given powerful coclass and develop some general theory for this class of groups. We also determine the growth of powerfully nilpotent groups of exponent $p^2$ and order $p^n$ where $p$ is odd. The number of these is $f(n)=p^{alpha{n}^3+o(n^3)}$ where $alpha=frac9+4sqrt2394$. For the larger class of all powerful groups of exponent $p^2$ and order $p^n$, where $p$ is odd, the number is $p^{frac227n^3+o(n^3)}$. Thus here the class of powerfully nilpotent $p$-groups is large while sparse within the larger class of powerful $p$-groups.
