If you could assign Pokémon types to superheroes (or supervillains, if you want), what would their types (and abilities and moves if you want to get that creative) be? I'm going to be posting my thoughts on four heroes from Marvel and DC respectively:
Captain America: Normal/Fighting
Ability: Guts
Moves: Take Down, Fling, Brick Break, Protect
Thor: Fairy/Electric
Ability: Sheer Force
Moves: Thunder, Hammer Arm, Meteor Mash, Play Rough
Hulk: Fighting
Ability: Anger Point
Moves: Outrage, Thrash, Rage, Superpower
Iron Man: Steel/Normal
Ability: Download
Moves: Flash Cannon, Techno Blast, Hyper Beam, Discharge
Batman: Dark/Fighting
Ability: Justified
Moves: Fling, Close Combat, Shadow Sneak, Last Resort
Superman: Fighting/Flying
Ability: Huge Power
Moves: Superpower, Fly, Frost Breath, Incinerate
Flash: Normal
Ability: Technician
Moves: Quick Attack, Bullet Punch, Mach Punch, Vacuum Wave
Wonder Woman: Fighting
Ability: Defiant
Moves: Close Combat, Constrict, Detect, Sacred Sword
P.S.
I'm seeing a lot of people assigning the Dragon type to the characters whose main power is super-strength. I hate to break it to you, but that type assignment only really works if the character is reptilian in design. Dragon-types are NOT characterized solely by physical attacks. There are a lot of outliers in the Special Attack stat, like Palkia, Reshiram, and Hydreigon. I know it's your opinion, people, but try to keep in mind that characters like Superman and the Hulk are human in appearance (granted, the Hulk is big and green, but he's still not in any way reptilian), and as such should not really be categorized in the type that consists mainly of reptilian beasts. I'd appreciate it if you put more thought into the typing other than "this fits because it's the main trait of the character." For instance, I gave Captain America the Normal/Fighting type combination because he's a normal person who's been genetically altered to be at the peak of physical fitness.
