What Pokémon would the characters have?

[Chidamari Sketch]

Basic wikia research shows that she's a dragon with a... well, sunny, bright and optimistic demeanor, is a bright orange-yellow dragon that's part of a tribe/species of dragon adapted to live in the desert but has an ordinary dragon as opposed to having a scorpion-like barb on her tail like her brethren. And she's enough of a sympathetic pacifist that she'd try to reason in any cases there is conflict. I'mma go with... either Shiny Togekiss/Togetic or Shiny Growlithe.
She seems to be unusual for her kind, so I kinda feel that Shinies in general kind of gel with that
Shiny Togetic/kiss because the two mutually share a distaste for conflict and desire peace amongst all, and while the color difference is subtle, Shiny Togekiss/Togetic's coloration leans a bit to yellow.
Shiny Growlithe on the other hand has a more clearer shade of yellow to it, but it also could act as a bit of a foil to Sunny. With Sunny being outgoing and all-loving in nature, but with Growlithe being ultimately friendly but cautious and protective to anything even vaguely suspicious. This last detail is kind of stretching it, but there is loose Dragon associations with Arcanine/Growlithe, as they can be taught a few Dragon type moves and Arcanine has been used by Lance in the Pokemon Stadium games (then again, Pokemon Stadium tends to have team rosters that tend to be unconventional for the characters/trainers in general)

Kino (Kino's Journey)

 

[PurplePopplio]

Inteleon. Both are excellent marksman.

Kirby

 

[EternalPokéFanGirl]

Jigglypuff, it's basically his clone.

Lucy Wilde from Despicable Me 2.

 

[PurplePopplio]

Ninjask

The Cabbage Man from Avatar the Last Airbender

 

[Bulbabrain]

Ninjask

The Cabbage Man from Avatar the Last Airbender

While a lot of people would say Absol, I’d go with Mudsdale. It can pull the cart easily, can serve as a shield for the cart thanks to its ability, and rototiller is good for farmers.

Samus from Metroid

 

[tazmily menace]

Inkay

Franziska von Karma (Ace Attorney)

 

[PurplePopplio]

Weavile

Jon from Garfield

 

[EternalPokéFanGirl]

Shiny Perrserker because for some reason I think Garfield would be exactly that, and Odie would be a Yamper, their body shapes are not the same but they both have the same playful personality.

Fear from Inside Out.

 

[PurplePopplio]

Sobble

Plank from Ed, Edd and Eddy

 

[Ghost Diplocaulus]

Sudowoodo, because it resembles the trees from which Plank was made from, but is actually a Rock-type, so it would keep Plank safe from literally anything that could hurt him

Chihiro from Spirited Away

 

[Galactic_V]

I'll go with Peroream. Idk, all the monsters from that movie looked sort of bizarre, and Peroream is fitting for a young girl imo while not having a "cute" design per say.

Jeff Probst (host of Survivor)

 

[EternalPokéFanGirl]

For some reason I think Braviary would fit him very well.

Hinata Hyuga from Naruto Shippuden.

 

[PurplePopplio]

Lucario

Hulk

 

[Ghost Diplocaulus]

This is gonna be weird, but I'd pair him with a Sylveon because Sylveon is said to release a soothing aura from its feelers to calm opponents, and I think Bruce Banner would appreciate having a Pokemon that can help keep his rage in check or at the very least prevent his Hulk side from getting too out of control.

Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z

 

[PurplePopplio]

Infernape

Clank from Ratchet and Clank

 

[EternalPokéFanGirl]

Magnezone, he's a mechanic after all. Also Klinklang for the same reason, and because it rhymes with his name .

Kari Kamiya from Digimon.

 

[Ghost Diplocaulus]

Meowth (for Gatomon/Tailmon) and Gardevoir (for Angewomon)

Hercules. Any version of him is fine.

 

[EternalPokéFanGirl]

Gallade is the quintessential hero Pokémon, Rapidash and Lucario would also fit him very well.

Videl from Dragon Ball Z.

 

[PurplePopplio]

Primeape

Eustace from Courage the Cowardly Dog

 

[Ghost Diplocaulus]

Cofagrigus, who only sticks by Eustace because he won't return the slab

Zak Saturday from The Secret Saturdays
