The Best Pokémon in Real Life

People have been fantasizing about having Pokémon for over 25 years, but if you were ACTUALLY offered Pokémon in real life, who would you choose? Needless to say, some choices are going to be better than others. In this video I go over the best Pokémon to have in real life.

[@riqua27]

Hand down Audino is easily the best pokemon to have in real life. If you watch in the anime Audino are often use to help out the house chore. And in one episode Audino help Nurse Joy cook as well. Not to mention she can heal you simply by singing. Considering the region this pokemon came from. It can help out a lot on cutting that health care bill.

[@shepskydad]

Audino almost got the spot over Blissey. The benefit of those ears can't be understated. I forgot about the house chores though 😭

[@itsgonnabeanaurfromme]

Seems like a maid would do the trick

[@generalwd40]

Concerning Meowth, and payday each level of Meowth give 5 pokedollar by level of Meowth, do a level 100 Meowth will give 500 pokedollars by payday attack with an amulet coin and happy hour attack will give 2 000 pokedollars by attack, and you can use 32 payday attack with 3 pp plus so 64 000 pokedollars by day if you divide that by 125 for an exchange rate with euro, so 512 euro/day with 1 Meowth lv. 100 and with that make conversion with your type of money of your country. Exchange rate is 1 canadian dollars = 108,34 Yen (I'm à Canadian) So 64 000 Yen × 365 day/year = 23 360 000 Yen/ Year or 215 657,31 Canadian dollars a year and doing the 32 payday attack each day for all 365 day of the year (max 4 minute each day so approximatively 1440 minutes so 168 hours so exactly 1 week (24 hours/day) but put in a year so doing that much money for the equivalent of 4 week of 42 hours of work or 1 week with nothing but work separated in 52 weeks ! I don't know for you but even with the raise of the price recently, doing 215 657,31$ each year by playing with my cat (Meowth) 4 minutes a day, each day, no problem I will do it with pleasure that cat will be treated like a king.

[@Smiddyack]

Blissey and chancey are useful too

[@riqua27]

@@Smiddyack not at the level of Audino. They have a stubby arm so they won't be as usefull on the house chore like Audino. They are also pretty big. Which means they would take a lot of space and the maintenance care might be a chore in itself. While Audino on the other hand is as tall as 12 y o.

[@Akatesinomura]

"May I offer you an egg in these trying times" - Blissey

[@christiandevey3898]

I think I would go with Meowth over goldengo because it’s a bit less weird having a cat versus a little man

[@shepskydad]

Are we ignoring the egg monster?

[@jumpcare]

Its out very favorite man

[@soradowty9187]

I was thinking Self-Defense for the last pick, then realized Dragonite has that covered. And since you chose my personal favorite in Espeon, I cannot think of any better list. Great job!

[@shepskydad]

I see you have good taste 👀

[@shadowthief6471]

Espeon is my favorite eeveelution as well

[@Violet-f1n]

​@@shepskydad Good taste indeed.

[@sunflorence-59]

Definitely Arcanine! It's my favourite Pokemon, a loyal, loving companion and a good option for travel.

[@jezierskioliwier2212]

Normal or hisuian?

[@shepskydad]

@@jezierskioliwier2212 Hisuian would probably hurt to ride lol

[@louiepikmin3184]

Amazing list! For the last one, I'd definitely pick torchic and never evolve it. I know it's a fire type but I doubt it could realostically do much harm. I'm pretty sure there's also pokedex entries about its body being warm and many people use them in the winter to stay warm, so yeah.

[@m1dn1ghtqt]

The Torchic line is my favorite

[@Zero-c5v]

@@m1dn1ghtqt Yes but you life expectancy would be way less

[@Ilikesceptile11]

One of its entries literally directly orders you to hug it

[@rosstastic5213]

Hope you don't mind if I share some of my picks! Cryoganol may seem like an odd first pick, but it's always been one of my favorites. As someone who lives in a hot place, an Ice type with access to moves such as Snowscape could be handy to help with the weather. Plants are usually high maintenance, but this is easily circumvented by my next pick, Sudowoodo. I find myself often wanting to try and get into gardening, but never have the time nor energy to take care of plants and make them look nice. The goofy rock fella could help me with that! I often find myself having trouble when falling asleep and may be a bit of an insomniac. Malamar would make for a great third choice, with its dex entry stating it has the strongest hypnotic power of all Pokemon. To ride around, my 4th choice would be Wyrdeer. Stantler is said to be able to create illusions, which would most likely be enhanced with its evolution, and is said to be able to erect invisible barriers. Wyrdeer would not only be a way to get around, but a method of self defense should push come to shove. Comfey may seem like a more meager pick compared to everything else so far, but it serves as a way to heal should I or anyone else get injured. Its ability Triage means that healing moves go first, so it can help rejuvenate me fast if needed. Mudkip. I like Mudkip.

[@shepskydad]

All really good choices! I love the utility for both Cryoganol and Malamar. Also Sudowoodo tending to the plants makes my heart happy :)

[@Snqwy]

I love your videos, your channel is really underrated

[@VCV95]

I'd agree on most of them! My favorite would have other uses though. As a spooder making electric webbing, Galvantula could help repair wiring, make electric clothes, maybe even help charge electronics! Just gotta feed them

[@shepskydad]

Ooooooh I love the Galvantula utility!

[@theghostofjeffgoldblumdail9613]

Fantastic list, you even put on some stuff I never thought. I had my own list of what Pokemon would be best in real life and it's actually changed because of this video. Here's my current list. 1. Blissey, same reasons as you, the happiness eggs and healing beat out Sylveon which was my 1st pick for this category because it's basically a dog with a built in leash that cures your depression when you go out for walks. 2. Miraidon, I know your video had no legendaries, but I think Miraidon is the perfect ride Pokemon, because it was literally designed to be the perfect ride Pokemon. It can traverse land, sea and sky and serve as self-defense. Only downside is that it can go underwater but how often does the average person go deep sea diving? Plus, if you think about it, Miraidon is a legendary in name only, it's not special, it's just a really strong robot Cyclizar, these things are all over the place in the future. 3. Appletun, I will never have to buy apple pie ever again. 4. Absol, I'm from Puerto Rico, we get a lot of hurricanes, nuff said. 5. Rotom, same reason as you, my whole house is now automated. 6. Gholdengo would be good for money, but since Blissey eggs sell well, I got that covered, so I just wanted this last slot to be a Pokemon I can walk around with on my shoulder like Ash does with his Pikachu, though I'm not picking Pikachu because I don't want to get electrocuted every single day. Cyndaquil is my favorite small Pokemon but I don’t want my hair to catch on fire when he sneezes so I'm gonna pick another of my favorites. There's a lot of really good choices out there (almost all of them starters) but I think I'm gonna pick Froakie, super agile so I don't have to worry about him falling off, and if he does he can get back up super easily, plus I'd imagine the gummy frubbles on his neck are very comfy, it's be like wearing a neck pillow all the time. Shoutouts to Treecko and Cincinno though, Treecko has got the agility but no fluff, Cincinno has lots of fluff but lacks the ninja-like agility. Also, apparently chinchillas are super high-maintenance pets so that alone made me not want Cincinno.

[@Zenala]

For me Absol is a go-to simply because it's my favorite and I do think its ability to predict disasters would be very handy

[@shepskydad]

It hurt me a bit to leave him off the team. ABSOLutely an underappreciated pick.

[@M4x_P0w3r]

Just 6 Ditto. Why pick one when you can pick any of them?

[@christiandevey3898]

In this scenario you are the only person with Pokémon, so the only Pokémon they could transform into are Ditto

[@youtubestudiosucks978]

​@@christiandevey3898 ditto can transform into other animals, especially people so you could get your favourite cornstar at anytime you want

[@yasinshehata]

@@christiandevey3898Ditto can look at a picture and transform into what it sees

[@luminosviper]

If you show it a photograph it transforms into photograph not the person in photograph

[@thegodofdonuts2428]

Or zorua

[@TheBookOfCameron]

The reason for picking Rotom is exactly what I had in mind to ! Even if we were dropped in the Pokémon world it’s a perfect Pokémon for traveling, AND on top of that it doesn’t need to eat. Which will save u money in terms of taking care of it

[@WatchVidsMakeLists]

I can't BELIEVE you didn't use the gif of Danny Devito saying "can I offer you an egg in these trying times?" for the Blissey bit

[@Jarack25]

I agree with mostly everything except for the money stuff and I have different reasons for a similar team. - Zoroark: Someone to talk to. (They could talk through their Illusions or they can use telepathy) - Dragonite: fast travel isn't the only thing it's good for, since it's a gentle giant you'd get big dragon hugs any time you're sad, combine that with a Blissey's eggs and you have an instant cure for depression. - Gardevoir: It's the EMBRACE Pokemon. Anyone would have a garde IRL if it meant having a magical alien knight for a protector! - Rotom: Electricity loss and lack of internet access will never be a problem again. - Blissey: Better than the US healthcare system. - Oshawott: My favorite pokemon and a perfect travel companion!

[@shepskydad]

Any team with Oshawott is a great team :)

[@Pizzaguy64]

TRUE

[@vossboss220]

I want an Arcanine and you cannot stop me I will not be convinced otherwise Arcanine is my good Fluffy Boy

[@Aftonsparv90]

I'm gonna share some. Of my choices :3 My first pick is definitely Litten ( it has an everstone so it won't evolve) Ever sense the alola starters got introduced I have always loved Litten plus combined with the fact I have a cat in real life and I've always loved cats is love for have a Litten by my side pluss I can use it's flames to cook My second choice is machamp because its seen that machoke is commonly used for physical labor in the Pokemon world and enjoys it and machamp is basically machoke but better plus it can help me reach things I can't My third choice is definitely miltank I mean it's free milk and with how flavorful and nutritious moomoo milk has been described I'd say it's a good choice My fourth pick is ampharos because it's literally used as a light house and as someone who can't see in the dark that's so useful plus you could theoretically use it as a back up generator in case of a power outage My 5 choice is defiantly tropius because it's been said it gladly shares the fruit that it has on it's chin and also it re grows so free food pluss I'm rather short so it could easily fly with me on it's back My last pick is blissey I mean its obvious it's eggs being packed with vitamins happiness it's literally linked with nurse joy blissey Is a no brainer

[@mudkipmadness7072]

I could never milk my own cow 😭

[@beeboobop9414]

Compatibility is a very important factor to remember.

[@MaeDungan]

extremely good set of answers in the video! i would certainly go with blissey (healing and good vibes are great) and ditto (just a cool little dude and the transform stuff can be useful even if it's not great at it), as well as Eevee for my favorite (it's just too darn cute, and with ditto i could have a bunch of Eevee if i really wanted/needed), and you made good points for goldengho and rotom (tho i might shy away from rotom for the mischief reasons). i personally wouldn't really feel the need for a transport pokemon, tho Dragonite is absolutely an excellent pick for that, so i think i would go for a chikorita instead. it's just so darn cute and even without having any plants around (which i would almost certainly change for its sake) it would be nice to chill with great video, and i like the consideration of the real-life usefulness and obedience of the various pokemon

[@DziuraObokSiura]

I would go with gardevoir, vaporeon, bellsprout, beedrill, lopunny and jynx personally

[@yukiizura]

I love your picks! If I force myself to not just choose the six Pokémon I love the most and think more about helping me irl, I would probably end up with; -Blissey: Same reasons as you. I went with Blissey over Audino for the happiness eggs. -Leavanny: As someone who works with children, friendly Pokémon with a caring nature are key. And it could weave plushies and clothes for them. -Tropius: For travel. I weigh half of what Tropius does, and am smaller, so it can definitely carry me, and I don't care about speed anyway. Plus, fruit! -Absol: Can you imagine how many lives could be saved as a result of this Pokémon? Plus, it's unfairly hated. Absol deserves someone to love it. -Fidough: I love baking, and dogs. Who *doesn't* love baking and dogs? -Gigalith: ...ok i know this doesn't exactly fit in with the rest of the list but it's my favourite. Plus, it's never mentioned to be aggressive despite it's power, and is even said to help humans on construction sites. I dare you to find someone who'll try me with an Absol on one side and a Gigalith on the other.

[@shepskydad]

Fidough + Tropius = Infinite Banana Bread

[@keksidy]

I love baking dogs too

[@yarnicles4616]

Tropius also flies.

[@MousaThe14]

I’d basically become the eevee version of a crazy cat person because I love the Eeveelutions. You can thank Colosseum for that because I’d have to have Umbreon there and Espeon too. Just a house of weird elemental fennec/cat/dog/bunny things. And maybe a midnight Lycanroc if I have the space.

[@kumen5341]

Me personally I dont yhink money-maker would be necessary since its gonna cause inflation so here my team 1. Dragonite The same reason in the video 2. Audino same reason with blissey 3. Rotom Same reason 4. Volcarona Volcatona can give heat like the sun, and it is said that it has replace the sun when cold in ancient time. 5. Ditto For the same reason 6. Liligant Personal favorite, also liligant can learn sleep powder and sunny day, so if i have hard time to sleep or if i want it to be a little sunny i know what to do. Also it learn charm and entertainment

[@jasper8368]

My favourite would be smeargle. He can paint and can use any move I want. I could sell the paintings for a very high price :)

[@Spark-Gold]

I would take Audino over Blissey simply because on top of having Healer, Audino can not only hear your heartbeat but asses your physical condition from it. This means that Audino can tell if something is wrong before it's detectable by other means. Treating disease in its early stages is way more effective than treating them in later stages and will also prevent any further issues from developing. Imagine if you can know a cancer is growing as soon as it starts, that ability is invaluable

[@90kalos1]

Metagross, rotom and Porygon 2 to start with. I work in IT and those three would be immensely helpful (and probably make my job unnecessary lol) Alakazam would also be helpful for problem solving and transportation. Corviknight for flying me around and because I like birds. And a Persian for finding me coins and a cuddly companion I made this list before watching the video

[@KingTwelveSixteen]

Hoopa, to access interdimensional travel. A harvest ability using grass type holding a sitrus berry, to plant the sitrus berry seeds of to get infinite magic healing fruit and reinvent everything about medical care. Gardevoir, for teleporting, healing, and general utility (also they are nice and very loyal). Jirachi, to get a wish. Also they go to sleep afterwards so you don't have to pay for their food. I can't think of any others I can particularly game at the moment, so I guess If I have to get 2 more I get 2 Sprigatitos, because they are cats and also grass-type so they can use the sun to make up for some of their food and would be very social and easy to get along with.

[@subtlewhatssubtle]

Since Furret now gets Tidy Up, this makes it excellent around the house. Can't be bothered to dust? Need to get rid of stuff from the closet or desk? Ask Furret to Tidy Up and it'll collect all the random debris you've accumulated and leave behind a nice clean space. Then you can give your living dust mop a hug for doing a good job, which you can do because Furret is six feet long and probably about half that tall, and therefore excellent for hugs.

[@childofathena9420]

If you want a more dangerous pokemon like garchomp you could start with their lowest evolution to get the idea that you are buddies before reaching their final all powerful form.

[@DSmaster8585]

I would love to have: Sceptile, my favorite starter. Gallade, one of my all time favs, plus would make a great bodyguard. Arcanine, sooo flouffy!! And great for transportation. Gholdengo, Make it Rain baybeee! Metagross, super smart and can float for air transportation. Rotom, little boy can help me with chores, when there are too many to do at once.

[@SoloBat32akaZJG]

About the favorite pokemon part, i have a few things i wanna share. LUCARIO! Like how you mentioned espeon is loyal, so is lucario. Also its not that safe with the aura attack but its cute. And it understand what you say, but i havent seen that much of the anime so i dont know if it can talk. If it can you can see how your friend is doing if theyre close enough and dont feel like talking to them.

[@AndrewSpiller-pm7gj]

Being able to change the weather would be very handy. Any pokemon learn sunny day and drizzle? Castform?

[@larisaerdyneeva4018]

All of the choices are great so far. I'd pick the alternatives, though: money - meowth, travel - fav flying or dragon (not sure yet), health - audino (I just don't like the entire happiny line), transformation - unovan/hisuian zorua/zoroark (zorua def is the safest option), tech - I guess, rotom really is the best tech mon. By the way, I was pleasantly surprised hearing about espeon. That's my number 1 favorite pokemon too! :D My other option is rather simple: just pick all the eeveelutions and/or cat pokemon. If I have to have only 6 pokemon, I'd pick espeon, sylveon, vaporeon, flareon, leafeon and jolteon. Sprigatito line is perfect for partnership/self-defence. Meowscarada can be a great entertainer too.

[@Koffe3BeanzYT]

Nah, for health it should have been Pikachu, he literally revived Ash in the anime.

[@ToxicAtom]

For healing, I think I'd rather have Comfey. You can wear it as a lei, so you never have to worry about not having access to it, and its ability Triage implies it is very quick at what it does. Just make sure you plant a healthy garden beforehand!

[@colindion4611]

Indeedee would be amazing to have in real life. Since they're enssentialy are free servants and babysitters. And you don't even have to feed them since they feed on graditude. Meaning you can feed them by just being grateful to them.

[@Joey15811]

Meowth- Pay day Gholdengo- Make it raid Shinx - Pet Abra - Dragonite Fly (depends is Abra in real work will be able to teleport you where you want to go or last place) Jirachi - Wishes A Small Water Type with Ice Beam - Any will do but as long as its a fun pokemon for summer and ICE Beam good for cooling down.

[@christiandevey3898]

Icebeam might be a bit too powerful, maybe something like icy wind

[@theratraider9357]

Tbh Stoutland would be a good pick. It's a dog, transport, and good for defending yourself!

[@abhisekhdas1502]

9:51 Why not Zorua? Zorua be like - I am better than this pink slimy sludge thing, fr. It can transform it into any thing in this world and can also talk in that voice (if that thing which zorua will transform can talk) he is cute and fluffy and have that petness for me.

[@EmmyBlubonic]

Tbh, between my two favorite Pokémon (Primarina and Hoops Unbound) one could be an amazing source of entertainment and a great companion, or I could have a genie...which is probably evil. But, eh. If I had to not cause a city being destroyed, id have to go with Primarina

[@crescentsrolls1507]

I'd want my OG torterra, because I love my tree turtle. I'd also want a flying type for fast travel, and I'd probably go with Togakiss since it evolves from friendship (guaranteed to not kill you). Maybe a Lapras for some swimming. Otherwise I'd just want some cute fluffy guys

[@bobbydhopp65]

Here are my picks Money: Gholdengo Transport: Miraidon Tech: Rotom Health: Blissey Gible: Gible Favorite: Meowscarada

[@jmurray1110]

Given your suggestions I will probably steal 3 off you Gholdengo abs blissey werent on my radar but definitely Ditto was already one I’d prefer a corvinight myself so that Then I want something from the meowscarada line because I love cats and this line really suits And then I think a lucario or riolu would be great especially with the aura I really don’t want to expose a rotom to my phone though

[@finnvaneekelen4966]

Nice list. Im personally a bit skeptical on how valid goldengo coins are as currecny (mind you there gold and as such probably valubale but most stores are not gonna take solid gold bars as a from of payment and exchanging them every time you need to buy something could work but it whould get tedious and you also might just lower golds value if you do it to much. Of course blissey already covers this but j doubt it likes seeing its eggs get bought by people rather then handing them out and having the reciever eat them and doing it anyway feels cruel. So what we need is a pokemon that earns money for us consistently and preferably with a smile on its face. The best bet i can think of for this whould be one of the pokemon that performs an art. Primarina for example seems like a good bet. Even outside of the iherent novelty of a a fancy seel singing opera the dex describes its singing voice as beutifull and its act combined with the bubbles it creates are said to leave an audience mesmerised. Primarina also seems to love performing and combine that with the fact its not on fire like skeledirge and better behaved then something like meowscarada it seems like a solid pick. It also comes with the fact that listening to it sing is probably really nice.

[@itsgonnabeanaurfromme]

No way I'll read the rest of this ramble but as for the first one. Having to exchange gold is not a problem. Just a few dozen ounces is more than enough for a long while. You don't exchange them in stores. That's not how gold works.

[@isray89]

My team of six, before watching the video: All base forms so that I can somehow gain their respect and not have kaiju destroying the city. 1) Chikorita - I have a black thumb and would love to actually be able to grow plants. 2) Ditto - Literally limitless uses. 3) Abra - Eventually I'd have a telekinetic supercomputer, plus teleportation. A supercomputer would make my day job much easier (statistician). 4) Magikarp - They're cute, I could sell the offspring, and we could jump into space. Plus, I'd eventually have a WMD for MAD. 5) Happiny - Healing and helpful, plus would make sure the eventual Gyarados doesn't lose control. Eliminates the need for a WMD if I can sneak the eggs into everyone's food... maybe with the help of a teleporting supercomputer... 6) Zigzagoon - It's my favorite, it's adorable, and it can bring me random trinkets.

[@shepskydad]

“Kaiju destroying the city” makes me want an anime about a trainer slowly losing control of their Pokémon as they grow stronger

[@mudkipmadness7072]

I'm just gonna say it: Zoroark would be the best one, at least for me personally. I don't want a pet, I want a companion. Zoroark can understand and even speak English when disguised as a human, and have been shown to be very caring to lonely trainers (myself). I would simply not need the other 5, as I'd be complete without any others... Plus I'd feel a little bad to "own them." But if I had to choose, it'd be- Arcanine, as a cute yet magnificent guard, or mount. Meowth, whom mixes cuteness and money. Altaria, for its fluffiness and soothing nature. Floatzel, a very helpful pokemon. It'd be amazing anywhere near water. Falinks, because 6 little Kirby warriors would be amazing to have. I would likely not show any of them off in public much, but still try to make the most out of them. I'd like to form bonds with each one. Zoroark wouldn't be a "pet" to me, and more of a friend. Its sentience would make it unfair to be a pet.

[@pigeonmama]

I'm still picking Charizard first! I imagine it has some control over its flame, and also it's great transport AND provides warmth which my anemic ass really needs. It's easily in my top 5 pokemon, but I can't keep my first favorite. Munchlax would be wayyyy too expensive to feed.

[@Bells-nm8nv]

Ok, what is it that makes aggressive pokemon bad? If they ate loyal to you, they aren't going to go crazy unless you tell them to. My picks would be: Blissey for healing (and money because freelance hospital) Tauros for land transport Dragonite for air transport Rotom for tech needs (also money because he could make a lot of money doing drone shots way up in the air) Machamp so i dont have to do any physical labor and i have a gym buddy And lastly Delibird, its one of my favs and it can supply me presents for holidays

[@dogishappy0]

I see being a trainer IRL very much the same as being a pet owner, and never understood the concept of just putting a pokemon in a box. In Mystery Dungeon, they have their own islands, but IRL you would have to pay to feed these living creatures. Assuming $10-$20 month per 10lbs of weight, Vulpix and Alolan Vulpix at 22lbs each would be very managable from a cost perspective, would help offset my home's utilities just by sleeping on top of my bed sheets (at least I assume an ice type pokemon would cool their immediate surroundings), and they would be able to keep each other company. To be fair though, my prank loving nature would likely mean I would find the pranks of a wild Misdreavus while walking my 2 Vulpix at night endearing enough to want to catch it. A "maid" pokemon to help around the house would be appreciated, but I'm unsure if I'd be able to live with the social stigma attached to having a bipedal pokemon or a ditto.

[@adstheflareon8770]

I would keep the dragonite and blissey for their same purposes, i'd add flareon because its my favorite, and the other 3 would be: Lycanroc (either dusk or day): it would be a loyal pokemon that could play with flareon, he also could run small errands if needed Glaceon/frosslass/cryogonal/ any ice pokemon tbh: i live in a really hot place, so an ice type would be great to cool off Slowbro: what can i say? He's a goofball with psychic powers, it would help out while also being extremely cute This isn't the best team by any means, but it is one i'd like to have

[@shepskydad]

Then it’s the best team for you :)

I think there is only 1 Pokémon that can do it all. Alakazam! I think you overlook the fact that you waves that produce headaches are only stated in Kadabra dex entries. Using in-game logic for teleport, does not make sense as we are supposed to be utilizing the full scope of their abilities. Also, Abra entries state that they teleport to a new location every hour while they sleep for protection. Alakazam can also help transport with telekinesis. Its spoons make anything you eat with it taste amazing! It’s 5000 IQ will help you solve all your problems and it never forgets anything. It’s experienced during its life, allowing it to be your ultimate recall tool. It has the ability to see into the future, and it’s mega form can even predict the future up to someone’s death. It does not have moves that can heal you, however it has moves to prevent or limit injuries and ailments. Such as, safeguard, the screens, and barriers. It also has nifty moves like trick, recycle, and sunny day.

hopefully the Rotom wouldn't possess your fridge (this is a reference to a meme)

[@hola.xdd278]

Ithinked tha Victini Would be a good option since in the pokedex says that with victini you will always win

[@schneemilch908]

I would have: 1. Victini, because of its luck and positive energy. 2. Celebi, mainly because of its influence on plants. 3. Shamin, because it eminates Gratitude and Happiness. 4. This position is unclear. It is a pokemon that would be caring and intelligent enough to push me in the right direction. Gardevoir for example would fit it. 5. Minccino, because it would help me keep my place clean and tidy. 6. A Zorua or ghost Pokemon, because it could be by my side in public without creating a fuss.

[@itsgonnabeanaurfromme]

What's with all these people wanting pokemon that are smarter than themselves?

[@victoryjamz]

my picks and what i would use them for: 1. kantonian persian (it's a cat. i love cats. also you can ride it in lets go eevee) 2. dragonite (yeah you are definitely right about it) 3. slurpuff (for food help. i hungy) 4. blissey (again. you right. also, free antidepressants!) 5. ditto (helping me with work... i can stock shelves twice as fast!) 6. leafeon (another cat! hell yeah! also, doesnt need to eat, can just photosynthesize.)

[@mudkipmadness7072]

Cats really are the best Pokemon. I don't want sentient money, I want a little meow meow :3

[@fruitfruitfederation3932]

6 Maractus, cause there my favorite and they'd fit in well with my real cactus.

[@nolongeraperson]

Alolan Ninetales, Arcanine, Corviknight, Comfey, Blissey, and Espeon.

[@HeavenhoundGiuseppe]

Alright, Eevee first, because honestly who doesn't want an Eevee? I should probably pick between Gardevoir, Delphox, and Meowscarada, they'd all fit the same role of being an intelligent companion and partner. Guess I'll go with Delphox, since fire-type means she'd give the warmest hugs, though I'd like all three. Rotom third, your explanation convinced me, and maybe it could help figure out a Pokémon-English translation device so I could communicate with Delphox properly. For transport, Arcanine. Flying's a hard pass for me. Guess I'll fill the other two with others I'd want just because they're cute and for Eevee to play with. Maybe Fennekin and Sprigatito. Yes I really like those evolution lines. They start cute and end awesome, what's not to like?

[@shepskydad]

Thank you for giving Eevee friends :)

[@danielkilworth1076]

My first thought for a bad Pokemon to bring to this world was kyurem. I think I remember it causing constant blizzards, and on top of the environmental shit that could cause, I don't think the hypothermia and frostbite would be worth. But I just realised, it could probably keep the ice caps frozen, so if it's moved there and taken care of by someone, it could potentially be a good thing

[@Green-3c34y65vrbu]

10:58 i would be scared of doing that. like, if Ditto can breed with any pokemon by turning into it.. what if it does it with your dog?! scary..

[@yarnicles4616]

Know what would be even worse? What if it does it with someone elses dog?

[@Green-3c34y65vrbu]

@@yarnicles4616 EXACTLY!

[@yarnicles4616]

@@Green-3c34y65vrbu To be honest, I wouldn't be too worried about that, as most pokemon seem pretty responsive to training, even that coming from a 10 year old kid. But there's still the possibility.

[@Green-3c34y65vrbu]

@@yarnicles4616 a fair point! but it's not like you're asking them to breed in say, scarlet and violet

[@blackdot105]

11:51 Having either a Golisopod, Buzzwole or Mega Beedrill irl could never work out, unfortunately.

[@JulkingII]

My favorite Pokémon is Giratina, but I don't want to get sent to hell... Let's just wait for tomorrow when my new favorite mon is out: Terapagos

[@oliverpedersen4493]

My last pick, would either be Lucario or Zoroark. Either the base zoroark, or hisuian zoroark

[@LalosSaw]

Latios, my favorite pokemon. you can ride it and has psychic powers.

[@Super_Top_Secret_Area]

Man, I would have picked Alakazam, but I wasn't aware of the fact that it could cause migraines just by standing close. With such psychic abilities, you could just have it follow you around and it would read people's minds, stop any projectile thrown at you, etc. but all these benefits wouldn't be worth the constant headaches. It was too good to be true. A healthier alternative would probably be either Slowking or Oranguru. Though they both appear to like their natural habitats a lot, so they could be good choices if you live close to a jungle or body of water. All other choices are spot on, I think. Audino could be an alternative to Blissey, though it has very sensitive hearing. I think having Pokémon could be ok for the most part... Except for the part where the government hunts you down for owning extremely dangerous animals (which would be true no matter where you live). Some people wouldn't be very open to the idea of having a Slowking walking behind you at the supermarket, or a Dragonite flying over people's heads. So, a Pokémon capable of making you and other Pokémon invisible would be ideal. The thing is, those that can do it, can only apply it to themselves.

[@shepskydad]

Alakazam has so much going for it but those headaches would just ruin it all. And yeah, this hypothetical is fun until you immediately become public enemy #1 for possessing mythical creatures.

[@joshwelshman7272]

Ninetails - starts fire when needed without being literally on fire Butterfree - sleep powder would always get to bed on time Goldengo - money Tropjus -flight Blastoise - when it's too hot Blissey - same reason as you

[@shepskydad]

Tropius gives free bananas. Quality pick.

[@mysteriousknight3182]

You missed the opportunity to have Blissey offer you an egg in these trying times like our good lord Danny Devito

[@RavenRedzilla]

6th pick has to be greninja for me with (batell bond frome gen 7)

[@selder_7]

Litten. I get a cute grumpy kitten that grows into a big feisty cat that then grows into the competitive goat? Hell yeah (And if there are no Pokemon to battle, it’ll just Darkest Lariat John Cena at wrestlemania)

[@LeafeonTheCat]

Persian - for money, I love cats Dragonite - for transport and also just being a big friendly guy! Blissey - for health Ditto - a good boi :) Chikorita - yes Chatot - we could make music together, it would be amazing

[@juanalvarado8480]

Chesnaught, Mightyena, Staraptor, Arcanine, Lucario, Audino

[@jumpcare]

I would choose a little goober for my last pokemon because its cute and silly

[@krestus6715]

Vaporeon, Flareon, Espeon, Glaceon, Sylveon, Umbreon. I really like the Eeveelution line. I would take all 8 (9 if you take Eevee as well) to be honest. Jolteon and Leafeon look just a bit less pettable. That's why I leave these two out if I had to

[@bjnazerigaming8302]

vaporeon for water issue... espeon coz psychic can help u doing heavy job water/psychic most important type in real life

[@dungeonpastor]

I'm bringing Deino anyway. Love my little German dragon. By the time he's a Hydreigon, we'll be bros. ❤

[@Cramorant123]

[@wooldooriansokbatus5222]

My 6 IRL mons; Houndoom -> fiery good boi Breloom -> Security Slowking -> Knowledge Xatu -> Teleportation/Flying Tyrantrum -> Who doesn't want a Pet Dino? Porygon -> Remove all Phub from History 😅

[@barkingkade7407]

I DEFINITELY think that I’ll need a Pokémon translator Most of pokemon seems to understand human language, but I do not understand Pokémon language And some Pokémon are able to talk to us, and if they also can speak Pokémon, it will help me understand them I think Zoroark can talk with telepathy, if Zorua can also, it’s DEFINITELY on the team for me

[@Smiddyack]

Great idea

[@diegopinkman4084]

I was about to say that Blissey is a better money getter than Gholdengo or any other coin producing pokemon for its eggs before I saw the 4th slot. So now I have to just say it'd be better to compress those roles into one and free up a slot, since money producing pokemon would just bring inflation, not money.

[@barkingkade7407]

Well You don’t need to make them create billions of dollars Just enough to keep you out of work, or at least help you financially so you could work less

[@Spider8itchy]

Espeon (my favorite pokemon ever and most loyal friend) will protect me!! And it's a cute purple cat, Audino or blissey- i can go around and help people! And they look soft and squishy. Persian! Like you said, money, cute, and you can ride on his back! Arcanine! Cuddly, warm, perfect for snuggles, and you can also ride on him!! Lopunny. One of my favorites ever, super strong, fluffy, and soft!! And finallyyy altaria or dragonite! For the reasons you said. Cute:) and strong

[@Spider8itchy]

I could also see myself switching out lopunny for rotom or hisuian zorua!!

[@captncapri1094]

I wanna participate so I'll make a team too TLDR; Meowth, Corviknight, Audino, Indeedee (M), Espeon, and Leafeon/Sprigatito I'd still choose Meowth over Goldengo because 1. Cat, and 2. Pickup. I think Pickup would be ok for money too since you could sell what they find. My flying type would be from Flygon, Dragapult, then Corviknight. I'd give up Flygon if it couldn't learn not to whip up sandstorms while flying. I assume Dragapult can be solid at will but if it can't or can't control it (don't wanna fall and die) then I'll take Corviknight. I like birds so I'll choose Corviknight over Dragonite here. I'd choose Audino over Chansey/Blissey, I just like it more. For tech I'd rather go with Charjabug. Its dex entry talks about how people like having them for camping trips so it'd probably help be a portable battery for more things. I don't like the idea of rotom messing with me using my electronics. I'd rather have a male Indeedee to help with 'day-to-day' needs (the dex says the female ones are good for babysitting and that wouldn't help me unless I was around kids alot) over a tech pokemon. The pokedex also states that its very loyal. Other pokemon I'd like would be Leafeon (pacifist, the clean air photosythesis), Espeon (same reasons you stated, one of my favorites as well), or Sprigatito (photosythesis might work like Leafeon's and also can make a sweet scent by kneading). There's other pokemon that could be good for some people. Munna could eat nightmares for those plagued with it. Golem would be great on farms since its shell is good fertilizer. Meganium can revive dead plants and has the calming scent thing. Pansage gives out stress relief leaves. No others come to mind so I'll leave this text wall like this.

[@bogdandamaschin9381]

Rule I imposed myself: only moves that are learned by level up. Don't think we have tms or hms irl. Ditto is a good choice because when it transforms, it might result in different dna every time (imperfect). So you could breed your one pokemon into an entire species without any imbreeding side effects. Since I will make pokemon to sell them, and in order to not cause inflation/be arrested for counterfitting, one option should be a pokemon that would sell well: pickachu or eevee. I assume flareon would not be an option, since we don't have firestones, but espeon, umbreon and sylveon are fair game. Rottom was my first pick. However for transportation I would opt for a teleporter, namely Gardevoir, for... reasons... joke asside, it is a friendly carring pokemon, that can serve as defence as well, not to mention research since it can open controled black holes (if they were uncontrolled, the pokemon world would have ended a long time ago). Next spot should be a weather controller, any pokemon with sunny day or rain dance. Priority to rain dance since it can save actual lives in droughts, also make unbearable hot days cooler. That means Dragonite or Goodra.I like Goodra so I choose Goodra. Finally Chancey for the eggs.

[@galactic_cupcake8744]

my 6th pokemon would be Gengar, maybe I can get it to kill me and turn me into a ghost so we can prank people til’ noon

[@amongos581]

i accept all of these, but i'd choose Gardevoir as favourite
