Who is the Pokémon Mascot for EACH Type?

The disrespect to Articuno will NOT stand.

I would give Fairy to Florges, it's the embodiment of the most classic Fairy concept: A graceful femenine creature that has a close relationship with nature.

Choosing an animal who can be poisoning instead of Muk, the pestilence personified, is a crime.

True list Fighting: Pinsir Psychic: Psyduck Ghost: Darkrai Water: Lugia Elektric: Porygon Rock: Conkeldurr Poison: Tangela Grass: Florges Fire: Koraidon Flying: Flygon Ground: Garbodor Dragon: Gyarados Ice: Oshawott Bug: Gliscor Steel: Electrode Dark: Arbok Fairy: Celebi Normal: Mankey

This might be peak youtube content bro, love the ai voice.

Greninja: am I a joke to you

I think rock would go for geodude even more that you think as some pokedex entries say about it disguising itself as a regular rock

I think the mascots for each type are: Psychic: Alakazam Normal: Snorlax Bug: Beedrill Water: Blastoise Fire: Charizard Grass: Venusaur Ice: Lapras Electric: Pikachu Dark: Umbreon Rock: Gigalith Flying: Pidgeot Steel: Magnemite Fairy: Sylveon Dragon: Garchomp (Cynthia, enough said) But I agree with you on the rest

Me personaly : Fire : Arcanine Water : Gyarados Grass : Vileplume Poison : Koffing Electric : Pikachu Ground : Hippowdon Psychic : Alakazam Rock : Geodude Normal : Porygon Z Dark : Zoroark Fighting : Machamp Flying : Pidgeot Ghost : Gengar Steel : Steelix Fairy : Florges Ice : Weavile Bug : Catterpie Dragon : Dragonite (Could be Haxourus tho)

"The big daddy of all water pokemon" got me on the floor-!

My own list after much deliberation, excluding Pikachu, Eevee and the Eevolutions, starters, and legendaries, as they're mascots in themselves of both the franchise as a whole and their respective generations. Most are going to be from gens 1-4 since seniority makes them more recognizable and as such more qualified for mascot status, and also typically will go cuter because that makes for better plushies (given mascots would have plushies made of them so best find something that's easy to make merch out of) unless the type is begging for something otherwise: Normal: Munchlax (small, cute, just a little monster who loves food, nothing much about him past that so he's pretty darn normal, and easily plushiable) Grass: Bellossom (decently common given Oddish being in most regional dexes, 100% plant, loves the sun and speaking of is all about weather and status effects) Fire: Rapidash (fast, hard-hitting, exposed flames, and also in most gens, and bonus points for being so reliable when you needed a Fire type in Sinnoh that wasn't Chimchar) Water: Milotic (elegant, tanky, very much a fish, and for bonus points is from the region notorious for having copious amounts of water) Bug: Wurmple (common in most regions and both is a textbook early-game bug and has that really cool split evolution to help it stand out from the others) Flying: Did a lot of thinking on this one and eventually landed on Zubat (was going to go with Hoothoot since it was from my deduction the most common of the Route 1 birds in terms of regional dexes (kinda neck and neck with Pidgey though so give or take), but then I realized that the most recognizable of all Flying types was right in front of me: Zubat. It is everywhere and in spite of it, it is known for being pretty darn strong and needs love to reach its full potential so it has an inspiring story to go along with it) Electric: Ampharos (mostly because of the whole lighthouse quest in Gen 2, but that highlights exactly why I'd pick it: it's all about emanating light and electricity ...I'd pick something faster but I'm surprised at how so many Electric types are actually on the slower side... Honorable mention to Rotom though given its increasing prevalence in the lore) Poison: Weezing (bulky, kinda intimidating, and you take one look at it and you go "oh yeah, that thing is *poison*") Rock: Agreed. Geodude. Ground: Hippowdon (it IS sand, it IS earth, it is a force of nature that carries sandstorms with it wherever it goes, everything about it IS Ground) Fighting: Agreed, Machamp Ice: Alolan Vulpix (the only pokemon here past Gen 4! Ironic given its original Fire typing, and I was contemplating others as well, namely Snorunt and Spheal, but it's so cute and it's so fluffy and snowy and also gets Snow Warning so it's the perfect little snowball) Psychic: Alakazam (the big guy of Psychic types back then and still kinda is now) Dragon: Dragonair (it's so elegant and mystical and super rare and reminiscent of a classic Eastern dragon, and while I could've just gone Dragonite as the final stage, I dunno, Dragonair fits the mysterious and elusive vibes better in my opinion, and also I need to not allow my bias towards Salamence overtake reason) Steel: Aggron (Steelix was a close contender but between the armor, the mega, and the concept of an armored dinosaur, everything about Aggron is, literally and metaphorically, metal) Ghost: Agreed again, Gengar (in fact it basically IS marketed as the quintessential Ghost type by The Pokemon Company themselves) Dark: Sneasel (probably due to the fact it's both one of the first Dark types and also a perfect balance of looking plushieable and like it'd claw your face just for fun, plus it's the signature pokemon of the ever-edgy Silver (which is kinda messed up when you think about it given he straight-up ferretnapped that Sneasel (and unlike the starter, wasn't too little to realize what was happening and just imprint on him and even had a doting trainer that it no doubt remembers beforehand) and forced it to fight for him and we know that he treats his pokemon terribly pre-Lance Hyper Beaming some common decency into him) Fairy: Clefairy (all in the name! Plus like this is a bit of a cheat but it was meant to be the original mascot of Pokemon before Pikachu was cast over it so it's definitely gotta be the mascot of something to make up for that) Now excuse me while I use Skill Swap on a Heatproof Bronzor in hopes it can help me endure the incoming roasts.

Fun Fact: You remember Brock picking up Diglet? Diglet is living on a rock.

Normal - Eevee Grass - Sceptile Fire - Charizard Water - Milotic Electric - Pikachu (a mascot) Ground - Hippowdon Rock - Gigalith Steel - Melmetal Ice - Regice Flying - Lugia Bug - Heracross Ghost - Gengar Psychic - Gardevoir Fighting - Machamp Dark - Zoroark Poison - Muk Dragon - Salamence Fairy - Sylveon

Here’s my list: (Though keep in mind that these Pokémon can be dual-typed, but the type they’re representing has to be their primary type.) Bug: Caterpie The first Bug type Pokémon in the Pokédex and the first Pokémon to ever be caught by Ash. There’s a lot of history behind this guy. Plus, he’s literally just a caterpillar. What more could you want? Dark: Darkrai This guy’s name literally means “Dark Dark”. Need I say more? Dragon: Druddigon I would do Hydreigon but apparently he’s primary Dark type, but Druddigon is definitely the next best thing. Electric: Jolteon Just like you said. Pikachu is already the mascot for the entire franchise, so I don’t think he should also be the mascot for the Electric type. Zeraora’s also a good pick but I think Jolteon’s better. Fairy: Zacian Fairy types should be elegant and cute/beautiful, but also very powerful. And Zacian fits all of these traits very well. He’s very elegant and he has a sword, so he’s definitely powerful. And also, he’s a dog. And we all know that dogs are fucking adorable. Fighting: Machamp Couldn’t have explained it better myself. Fire: Charizard Nothing embodies the Fire typing more than a badass fire breathing dragon. Flying: Altaria Flying is the only type that I made an exception for about my primary typing rule because there are literally only 10 primary Flying type Pokémon in the entire franchise, and Altaria shouldn’t even be a fucking Dragon type anyway. Ghost: Gengar Again, couldn’t have explained it better myself. Grass: Torterra Having an entire ecosystem on your back basically guarantees that you become the Grass type mascot. Ground: Diglett Once again, couldn’t have explained it better myself. Ice: Eiscue For this type I honestly wasn’t sure, but I chose Eiscue because he’s a penguin with a literal block of Ice on his head. Being honest here though I’m not 100% sure about this. Normal: Rattata He’s just a rat. Can’t get more basic than that. And just because he’s purple doesn’t change the fact that he’s just a rat. Also, Tauros has three tails, and that’s definitely not normal. Poison: Muk He’s literally a pile of toxic chemicals. Psychic: Mew The first mythical Pokémon and the ancestor of all Pokémon. Nothing screams Psychic type more than that. But Deoxys and Alakazam are also really good picks. Rock: Geodude He’s just a floating rock. Steel: Melmetal This guys entire body is just a big, bulky chunk of pure metal. Water: Wailord The big daddy of the ocean. Nothing is more perfect for a Water type mascot.

The one he chose for the dark type name means dark dark. I’m not joking.

I was actually expecting water to be empoleon

I don't see why gamefreak didnt give tsuros rock head. He is fkin bull , all he does is charge at you. He shouldn't be taking recoil

I probably would've given the Poison mascot to Muk. It's literally made out of poison & toxicity.
