Your Character & Pokemon - imayosh - 05-24-2016

With the Sun & Moon hype train getting ready to set off (and run for a year straight with 6 months of lead-up and then all the fun after release), I wanna get into the Pokemon spirit a little early:

What pokemon would be your character's main partner? Would your character have a certain type specialty? And if you wanna get really into it, What kind of trainer would they be? A breeder, coordinator, gym leader? Maybe a member of Team Rocket or Galactic?

--

For myself, Mercury's partner would likely be a Mienshao, with a general emphasis on Fighting types. He's still a wanderer, but living alongside this kind of pokemon would influence him to turn his dancing to a fighting style himself, focusing on melee instead of swordsmanship.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Kilieit - 05-24-2016

Aghurlal's main partner would be an Absol. It'd be a non-combat pokémon, though.

I actually made a team for him a while ago - Flygon, Salamence, Garchomp, Haxorus, Hydreigon, Noibat.

...better hope your opponent doesn't like Fairy types, hon...

I had this idea that he'd be a League hopeful but get knocked out in the semi-finals or something and - as a result of his strong performance - be offered a position as a Dragon-type gymleader, so that's cool.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Momoka - 05-25-2016

Lunelle would have an Umbreon as her main partner. Her entire team would be dark ghost and psychic types, because it fits her completely, with a fire pokemon on the team, though Im not entirely sure which. Maybe Houndoom? Idk.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Eses Fafa - 05-25-2016

Main Partner? Gyrados. She'd've put way too much faith in an otherwise useless Pokemanz and it pays off as a result.

Eses is a follower of Nymeia, and the elemental inclination to that is Water. She'd be a trainer, with the protagonists' level of determination. She would be an ace gambler in Goldenrod Game Corner.
Her team would comprise mainly of Water/Dragon types.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Aaron - 05-25-2016

Aaron's main Pokemon would be a Slaking since they both are lazy bastards who's attitude inhibits how strong they actually are in battle. Also for those that doubt the beauty of Slaking.
  • Outside of Legendary Pokémon and Mega Evolution, Slaking has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon, even surpassing Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon by 70 points.

    Slaking has a huge Movepool, larger-than-life stats, and ONLY has the tier of OU (competitively speaking, I think he should be Uber). Of course, he's held back by Truant, but still, his stats are tied with GROUDON AND KYOGRE, and is 50 stat points away form being tied for BEST stat total in Pokemon.
Get rekt

His type specialty would be Ghost/Dark however, and he'd probably have a only Ghost/Dark types save for his buddy Slaking.

Gengar, Tyranitar, Absol, Claydol, Zoroak, and Sable. He'd be one of the Gym leader types to procrastinate about battling people and because of this denied every offer to join the Elite Four. And when he does get to battling he generally will give up if he doesn't continuously one shot the opponents Pokemon.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Meekwood - 05-25-2016

Karmine would have an Electrode because of it's penchant for explosions.
It's would probably have a stupid name like 'Pookie' or 'Snookums.'
Karmine would probably be one of the random nincompoops that stand around, has no idea about the finer points of pokemon battling, has a team that consists of two Voltorbs and the Electrode, and stands around a route waiting for the main protagonist to steam roll over him for EXP fodder.

"I like robes! They're comfy and easy to wear!"

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Runic - 05-25-2016

Lynea would most certainly have all fighting types, with a Lucario as her main and a Pancham just because it's cute. It would work out well, she likes to hit things, they like to hit things. All of it would be a win win.

She'd probably be a traveling trainer or work at one of the gyms, just not as a leader.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Garza Redwing - 05-28-2016

Garza would be the Normal Type gym leader, with his pokemon of choice being the MIGHTY SNORLAX!

He'd stand proudly atop it's giant belly during battle.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - U'roh Tia - 05-29-2016

Roh would be by and a wandering trainer roaming the land for good battles and a noble crusade to partake. His team would consist of Cat and knight-esqe Pokemon. 

However is main partner would be..

Aegislash

A pokemon so good they had to nerf his butt.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - AekiraSwyfte - 05-30-2016

Oh boy, I was thinking a lot about this lately here we goooo

Aekira's main partner would be a Honchkrow, no doubt. He loves birds ICly so it makes sense to me that he'd be all about the flying-types (They make up about half of his team lmao, type balance isn't his specialty). His team consists of Honchkrow, Noivern, Gyarados, Electrivire, Weavile, and Clefable, and most of his squad has at least one sound-based move.

As to what kind of trainer he'd be, he'd probably be a Pokemon Ranger. Former league hopeful, failed for some reason or another, took a job working with and protecting wild Pokemon because, for the most part, he likes them more than most people. He likes to sing to them, the dweeb

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Zaheela - 05-30-2016

Honestly? Rhea would have a froslass, even though type wise she'd use either Ice or Dark types. For the type of role, I'm not sure.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Spikewerks - 05-30-2016

Zigovali's lineup:

- Maractus (Main partner)
- Roserade
- Solrock
- Honchkrow
- Flygon
- Mismagius

Roserade and Maractus aren't so much meant for serious battling, but more to indulge in Zigovali's love of dance and roses. He caught a Solrock for the obvious sun symbolism. Honchkrow, Flygon, and Mismagius are his powerhouses, while still sharing in his own aesthetics of shady activity, the desert, and magick.

As a Trainer, he's not one to say no to a fight, but he enjoys putting Roserade and Maractus into Contests and similar events.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Parth Makeo - 05-31-2016

I'll just post main pokemon for my characters since there are alot

Arala Makeo: Blaziken
P'rita Kali: Ninjask
Edward Lazipu: Bonzor (shiny)
Xyla Quintessence (Quint): Gardevoir
Wati: Vaporeon
Igni: Flareon
Forta: Glaceon
Gaia: Leafeon

and P'rth: Joltik Army (Yes...multiple ones)

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - WanderingWordsmith - 06-06-2016

Averill's primary partner would be an Aggron.

As far as a team's concerned... can't build a team without reflecting the trainer, so let's take a look:

1) Aggron:  Damn thing claims a mountain and does its thing far removed from people. It's a perfect fit.

2) Skarmory: A bird that regrows its wings once a cycle to full strength. It's a weird... violent... phoenix-thing. I like it.
[Image: 227.png]
3) Mega-Mawile: Normal Mawiles use their charm to lull foes into a false sense of security. Averill tried that once - Mega-Mawile's more his style.
[Image: 303-m.png]
4) Haxorus: Kind when left alone, dangerous when disturbed. If there was ever a reflection for Averill's more human side, it would be here.

5) Tyrantrum: Hubris? Unstoppable rage? Self-destructive over-compensation? I'll stop there.
[Image: 697.png]
6) Tyranitar: All of Tyrantrum, with more realm-shaking strength in the right conditions.

RE: Your Character & Pokemon - Zanther - 06-06-2016

Zanther would probably run with a Bronzong as a main and have several fossil Pokemon with him.
