For the 3H Pokémon AU, I have to ask- Do the Agarthans use snake/dark themed Pokémon (since, you know, “slither in dark”) or do they focus on ice/fairy (since those are strong against dragon)?
I will not stand for dark-type or snake slander in my house blog they already have a bad enough reputation thanks to the games and we all know my feelings about the Dark is Evil trope -- snakes as wicked is equally something I frown on.
(by which I mean to say that I don't think it's really fair to code Those Who Slither with dark types or snakes specifically -- because Those Who Slither isn't their name for themselves, it's what Hubert chose to name them and what the protagonists in 3H take to calling them, in turn: technically they're Agarthans, which is probably how they would refer to themselves. also I love snakes, they're adorable, the Twisted don't deserve them)
Dark, Fairy, and arguably even Dragons (demonic beast analogues) would probably be the best fits for them. High-ranking members probably have things like Grimmsnarl (Death Knight), Mimikyu (Kronya), Glalie (Solon), Hatterene (Cornelia), Druddigon (Thales); meanwhile, rank and file members probably have lots of Spritzee and Aromatisse (because plague masks are a key feature on their mages).
