A post for @the-ravenclaw-werewolf ! I hope you like it!
I simply love her mass crossover fic, and it is one that has become something of an inspiration for me in terms of âWatching the seriesâ fics. I havenât started yet but I have a couple ideas in mind.
One of the things I love doing is giving anime characters pokemon teams and, to show my love for the story, I will be giving pokemon teams to each of the members of the 40!
Some guidelines, while I will do my best, some characters will likely have less than 6 pokemon, mainly due to lack of familiarity with some of the characters. Any Pokemon I pick will not only represent something for the character, but they are Pokemon I can actually picture them having if they were Pokemon trainers.
Right now, I have teams for four characters picked out, and if it gets positive reception, I will do more!
Now, without further ado, letâs get this started withâŠ.
1) Killua Zoldyck from Hunter x Hunter
His partner and ace is Pawmot. Not only is it an electric type, but it is also a healer with its signature move, Revivalâs blessing, showcasing Killuaâs innate, kind nature. Sylveon is here for similar reasons, and I made it shiny to represent Alluka in his life, who is canonically transfemale.
Absol is a PokĂ©mon that is often misunderstood, just like Killua, and also can represent his past as an assassin. It doesnât hurt that Absol has cat-like features and a similar color scheme to Killua.
Slurpuff is here due to Killuaâs love of Chocorobos. I can totally see these two chowing down on some, lol.
Gholdengo may seem like an odd choice but Killua is often associated with his skateboard and Gholdengo is a surfer. Plus, I can see Killua being one of the few patient and determined enough to gather all 999 Gimmighoul coins to evolve his.
Finally, Manectric is totally a Killua pokemon. He also loves dogs and there was a bit of cut content of Killua once having a puppy when he was younger. Sadly, he ended up having to kill it because of his parents.
Mega Manectric is the thunderbolt pokemon and would be the perfect pokemon to be able to keep up with him in Godspeed.
2) Emma from Promised Neverland
Whenever I think of Emma, the first pokemon that comes to mind is Scorbunny. Athletic and fiery, I think it and Emma would be instant friends upon meeting and would help Emma survive her ordeals. It would be a Cinderace by the end of the manga.
Pikachu is also a Pokemon I can see with Emma. A fast, forest dweller and mascot, and it serves as nice common with Killua, who has a Pawmot (aka an evolved Pikachu clone).
Emma screams âdog personâ and being the Badass Normal, she deserves a badass, normal dog pokemon. Stoutland would be not only a tracker but also a guard for the younger kids.
Gardevoir represents Emmaâs unwavering kindness and empathy. I can see Emma raising it from a Ralts and fostering her with all the kindness in her heart. Gardevoir and Emma also have a tendency to be self sacrificial.
Grimmsnarl may seem like an odd choice, but just because Emma is a kind and compassionate girl doesnât mean she doesnât have a dark side. Grimmsnarl, being a dark and fairy type, is the perfect pokemon to represent both aspects of Emmaâs character.
Finally, Lanturn. To be honest, I just think Lanturn fits Emma to a T, with both of them having a playful nature and serving as the heart of their teams.
Granbull is Cielâs starter pokemon, and one that represents who he was before the incident and even who he is now. Ciel is a complicated character and both he and Granbull can be scary, but there is a softer side to them.
Dusknoir and Banette represent Ciel now. Dusknoir has one eye like Ciel, and is something of a grim reaper of the pokemon world, making it similar to Sebastian. Banette not only is a ghost pokemon known for its vengeful nature but itâs a toy, or rather a doll.
Larvitar just has bit Ciel vibes. It may evolve one day but I think it staying a Larvitar would be symbolic of Ciel as he is now. Cubone would have been another good choice but I think Larvitar fits better.
Finally, Hisuian Zorua and Plusle represent things that are spoilers but if you know, then you know. I will say that Plusle also connects Ciel with Killua and Emma.
This team was terribly easy. Serperior and Seviper are here because of Nagisaâs association with snakes.
Weavile represents Nagisaâs talent for assassination and it is also a small and frail powerhouse.
Espeon is a Pokemon that represents Nagisaâs inner kindness and eventual path towards becoming a teacher. I can see Espeon helping Nagisa rally his troublesome students when he is older.
Roserade is a feminine looking pokemon that can be male, and also can fit on a team for one with a talent for assassination.
Finally, Mawile is a Pokémon that looks outwardly cute but has something terrifying about them. Mawile has their huge jaws and Nagisa has a natural bloodlust. It also has the capacity to mega evolve and become a true menace.
And that is all for today! I hope you all enjoy this. If anyone has suggestions for Pokemon that the others would have on their teams, I am all ears!
