Here is the Straw Hats and their possible Pokémon teams thread that nobody asked for~
In choosing suitable Pokémon, I went for Dex entries, looks and abilities of the Pokémon that corresponded with the members' fighting or personality traits. Sometimes it's just small puns~

I also ignored the Pokémon's base stats, including Legendaries. I solely went on their characteristics and powers when choosing them. If Pokémon had several forms, I picked the one most suitable. I ignored Megas & Gigantamax Pokémon as well.
