The Entities and Vessel Pokemon
Thank you @constantlysleepdeprived for helping me proof read this info
The Entities/Fears Are NOT Pokemon
I would first like to make it clear that I am sticking to their canon counterpart in TMA; the Entities are Entities. The Fears are still incomprehensible beings where the word "god" is the closest thing to describing them. The way the Entities would bring upon their apocalypse in this AU is via influencing any legendary or certain mythical pokemon to canonize themselves to existence to enact the world's change. The Rituals in this AU is specifically done to both summon the selected mythical/legendary pokemon and merge them in a way with the patron Fear of the avatars.
Vessel Pokemon
Vessel Pokemon are different to Follower Pokemon, in which one could become the complete vessel to a Fear while the other simply aids in bringing a Ritual to a success and becomes an avatar's party member.
Now keep in mind:
All legendary pokemon can become a vessel
Not all mythical pokemon can become a vessel
Common/non-legendary/non-mythical pokemons, as powerful as they seem, are unable to become the vessels for the Entities due to lacking the ability to fully change the world, which is why legendary or certain mythical pokemons are much more desired.
Some avatars may have weaker mythical pokemons in their teams, but due to the lacking power, they simply act as a much more favorable party member.
Now, how I would consider which mythical to be worthy as a vessel pokemon is via their dex entries, lore, or based on my personal vibes because this is my AU and I would like to choose which mythical would be suitable.
