Update:Ponémon ScootaRed: Suggest party members! · 11:25pm Aug 28th, 2014
I have started drafting the first chapter(s) for this story and have just realised something, I have not planned out a full team of six for our young trainer Scootaloo. I currently have three chosen, a fire type, a water type and a physic type. So I am going to ask, what three Pokémon should join her on her quest to be the very best? Try to keep it to the original 151 but I will accept pokemon that gain evolutions and baby evelotions in later games. E.g. Scyther can evolve into Scizor and Eevee can evolve into Leafeon and Elekid is Electabuzz's 'baby'/pre- evolution so is also allowed. Also type variation would help.
Try to give a reason why your Pokémon would fit Scootaloo's personality/traits and her general lore, I may ignore the 151 rule if the reasoning is just too perfect not to use that pokemon (I may or may not have broken it myself already...). I may end up not using these suggestions if I find something more suiting her/the story or may ask for suggestions again once I have released some chapters.
Also, I would like to ask, should I have everyone call her Scootared (much to her annoyance) or just leave her name as Scootaloo? I don't know if that would get irritating to the reader or not. (Also would apply to me calling Apple Bloom 'Apple Blue' or not and other characters that can parody their names)
