The Mane Six and their Pokemon Starters. · 4:08pm Apr 21st, 2017
So in between writing for "Daughter of Magic" and my newer idea, "The Swan Pony," I was watching the new Pokemon Sun and Moon anime and I remembered the Pokemon/MLP fics I read. So with Sun & Moon out, I wondered what Pokemon Starters would the Mane Six get. Here are my thoughts and why.
Twilight Sparkle…Rowlet: Because Twilight is a bookworm with a pet owl. Not to mention Athena, the Greek Goddess of Wisdom, has an owl as her symbolic animal. Need I say more?
Rarity…Popplio: Popplio's final evolution, Primarina, was the deciding factor. Rarity would want a beautiful and elegant Pokemon for her starter. Though she could've gotten away with Snivy.
Rainbow Dash…Litten: Tough girl Rainbow Dash with a wrestler-like Incineroar. Need I say more on this?
Applejack…Treeko: I figured a Treeko's ability to climb up walls would be helpful on Sweet Apple Acres.
Pinkie Pie…Chimchar: A playful Pokemon for a fun-loving Party Pony.
Fluttershy…Froakie: To be honest, Fluttershy was the toughest of them all. It was difficult to find a Pokemon that fit her personality. I chose Froakie because he and his evolved forms would be the strong, silent types. Fluttershy's guardian ninja.
What are your thoughts and ideas on what Starter Pokemon the Mane Six should get? Any ideas for Spike and Starlight Glimmer? Think I should make a fic based on this?
