Carmen Deserves Every Hug She Could Get Post-season 4 😞

carmen deserves every hug she could get post-season 4 😞

(found out that yesterday was international hug day— i’m late a day but anywaysss…)

i made pokemon teams for like almost every carmen sandiego character

started making these like a month ago bc i thought it’d be fun. went with no legends, no repeats on one team. teams + my explanations for them under the cut.

carmen’s team:

ampharos

blaziken

quaquaval

thievul

whimsicott

weavile

i’d imagine ampharos was her first pokemon, because… black sheep. blaziken fits the red, plus it and quaquaval remind me of how carmen fights. thievul, whimsicott, and weavile are all because.. thief. also, i tried choosing pokemon from a wide range of regions for her.

player’s team:

porygon2

litten

abra

elgyem

munna

rotom

porygon2 and rotom for hacker reasons. i’d imagine he doesn’t really battle that much, so all are nfe

ivy’s team:

revaroom

unfeasant

herdier

klinklang

magneton

tinkaton

revaroom because cars, unfeasant and herdier are common pokemon in unova, klinklang, magneton, and tinkaton all because of her being a mechanic 👍

zack’s team:

snorlax

orthworm

quagsire

bidoof

deino

tepig

all no thoughts, head empty. most are big eaters as well.

shadowsan’s team

crobat

ninjask

jolteon

drapion

glalie

kartana

all were either chosen for speed or for knowing evasion boosting moves- with the exception of kartana, which i chose because i think it would be fun to give all of the vile faculty one ultra beast. additionally, i thought it’d be fun to do the pokemon villain team thing of “giving them a crobat (or other pokemon that evolves via friendship) to show that they’re not all that evil”

chase’s team:

pyroar

gumshoos

furfrou

talonflame

absol

gogoat

all but gumshoos are available in kalos bc.. french. gumshoos is a detective, so i thought it’d fit him as well. also i think it’s silly to give him an absol and imagine it loses its shit every time he enters a car

julia’s team:

purrloin

runerigus

golett

mismagius

gourgeist

frillish

giving her a near-mono ghost type team wasnt what i thought i’d do, but i actually think it fits with her focus on history. purrloin because i absolutely believe she has a pet cat, runerigus and golett especially to fit in with her interest in history. i also don’t imagine her as being much of a battler.

chief’s team:

liepard

purugly

garchomp

corviknight

greninja

gliscor

went for more intimidating looking pokemon- with the exception of liepard and purugly, which i chose because of her cat. also garchomp always makes me think it’s wearing a suit, which is part of why i gave her one. also all have a sort of blue-purple color scheme going on, which i thought fit with her.

coach brunt’s team:

emboar

conkeldurr

throh

sawk

bewear

buzzwole

wanted to give her a mono fighting type team- all unovan except for bewear and buzzwole. bewear because “mama bear” and hugging :) and buzzwole as her ultra beast because of its massive attack stat

dr. bellum’s team:

reuniclus

beheeyem

tastugiri

alakazam

archeops

xurkitree

wanted to give her some absurdly, comically intelligent pokemon, as well as at least one fossil (and archeops is my fav fossil lol). xurkitree as her ultra beast because high special attack + wanted to throw at least one electric type in there.

countess cleo’s team:

gardevoir

hatterenne

gothitelle

florges (white)

lilligant

pheromosa

me: you better not be serving cunt when i get over there

cleo’s team:

professor maelstrom’s team:

malamar

spiritomb

hypno

sigilyph

starmie

nihelego

wanted to give him a kind of freaky looking, mind alternating weirdo team. nihilego as is ultra beast for that reason, plus bonus jellyfish points

roundabout’s team:

copperajah

boltund

inteleon

dragapult

hatterene

dracovish

wanted to give him a fairly standard galar team.. minus dracovish, which i have to imagine there’s a ton of arguments over the morality of owning in the pokemon world. additionally, inteleon because. spy.

crackle’s team:

electivire

luxray

jolteon

rotom

raichu

vikavolt

electric monotype team! wanted to also give him pokemon that are more.. animalistic? friendly looking? idk how to describe it

tigress’s team:

liepard

delcatty

incineroar

meowscarada

meowstic

pyroar

kitty cat :) i’d imagine her as having specifically female meowstic and pyroar as well.

le chèvre’s team:

gogoat

garchomp

tyranitar

noivern

lycanroc (midnight form)

salazzle

look i know this one isn’t the best fit but there’s only so many goat pokemon, and i wanted to go the rock climbing route instead, but then i realized that salazzle reminded me of his suit so here we are.

el topo’s team:

excadrill

clodsire

swampert

camerupt

dugtrio

sandslash

excadrill is obvious, and also wanted to give him a mono ground team. also all very friendly cute looking little guys on his team, which i think fits well.

mime bomb’s team:

mr mime

mr rime

zoroark

primarina

drifblim

ditto

mr mime and rime for obvious reasons, zoroark and ditto because of the disguise, primarina and drifblim because i was trying to think of things at a circus. also because i think he’d probably try to use his drifblim to kidnap kids or some shit.

dash haber’s team:

froslass

leavanny

gardevoir

alolan ninetales

vespiquen

milotic

similar to cleo, wanted to give him a slayful team. additionally, all are special attackers (or technically mixed attackers but would be using their special attack i just wanted to try to give him a sa based team lmao)

paper star’s team:

kartana

hatterene

mimikyu

banette

froslass

cacturne

i know i said i’d only give vile faculty ultra beasts but like.. how could i not give her a kartana. the rest are just cute but very fucked up little guys. also she reminds me of a cacturne.

lady dokuso’s team:

venusaur

crobat

arbok

gengar

roserade

toxapex

poison monotype team, obviously

the mechanic’s team:

klinklang

excadrill

coalossal

grapploct

aggron

revaroom

mostly steel types, but also coalossal because of powering things and grapploct because i just. really wanted to give her one. plus extra galar/british points

the driver’s team:

salamence

electrode

noivern

weavile

salazzle

cinccino

focused mainly on speed for her pokemon. also i just think that the idea of her with a cinccino is very cute

neal the eel’s team:

eelektross

ninjask

wugtrio

alolan muk

sandaconda

dragalge

for neal, i chose eelektross for obvious reasons, and the rest either for speed or evasion boosting moves. also i chose alolan muk over regular muk because i think he’d like the colors

otter man’s team:

gumshoos

lucario

froslass

weavile

frosmoth

houndoom

tbh i made his team a while ago and i don’t remember the thought process for anything beside from i thought he looked like a gumshoos and wanted him to have ice types

moose boy’s team:

hariyama

abomasnow

mamoswine

beartic

baxcalibur

galarian darmanitan

all ice types, all big, hard-hitting guys.

spinkick’s team:

hitmonlee

blaziken

scrafty

mienshao

hawlucua

tsareena

all can learn high jump kick lol. plus mostly fighting types. tsareena was chosen even thought it’s not a fighting type because its entire gimmick is kicking things

flytrap’s team:

volcarona

togekiss

decidueye

yanmega

galvantula

greninja

all special attackers! chose galvantula specifically bc it can learn sticky web as well.

the troll’s team:

porygon-z

rotom

metagross

kadabra

umbreon

dedenne

porygon-z and rotom for the same reason as player, but i’d imagine he’d be more willing to use the dubious disk. also, for kadabra, i liked the concept of him not being able to trade with anyone to evolve it lol.

madame goldlove’s team:

gholdengo

azumarill

steelix

aegislash

meowstic

kommo-o

all are shiny- i thought it’d be fun to make her a shiny hunter, specifically for these since all of them are gold shinies.

pls lmk what you think of them or if you have any more ideas or suggestions ^_^
