I've been here for all of five minutes so these are probably far but uuuh Sharpedo Dragonair Politoed Samurott Lucario Lopunny ? (type bias. I don't know her)

What Pokemon best fits Kirishimi? @heirsofdiscord

“Is that a Politoed???? Yes! Welcome ta’ the team, Politoed!” 

Sharpedo: Was certainly considered! High speed and attack stats and feared in oceans around the world! She likes to make bonds with her Pokemon and Sharpedo is a bit aggressive for her liking but it would definitely take a spot on her team. They explore oceans together outside of battle. 

Dragonair is also part of her team! After finding a Dratini that she affectionately named Noodle, she is unable to replace the Pokemon on her team. 

Politoed doesn’t need an explanation. Frog. Will also accept Greninja and all other frog type Pokemon 

Samurott! Fierce Pokemon! She would consider putting one on her team, especially if she got to raise it from a baby Oshawott. 

We already discussed a Lucario here so I’ll move on! 

Lopunny is an interesting one. Normal type and far too cute. Kiri would appreciate Lopunny but in her own team would have little synergy. Sorry bunbun. :<
