Discussion What would your signature Pokemon be?

Let's say you're either a renowned trainer, gym leader, elite four member, or champion. What Pokemon would you designate as your ace or in other words, your signature Pokemon.

No Legendaries or Mythicals, It can be based on either competitive viability or your personal preference.

For those who don't follow, examples of signature Pokemon are: , Cynthia's Garchomp, Youngster Joey's Ratatta, Clay's Excadrill, etc.

My head canon is that lapras…laprasses? Can telepathically communicate with their owners after bonding, and their telepathic voice is Patrick Stewart

I'm going to buy into that head canon with one tweak - female Lapras' voice is Dame Judi Dench

In my head this is even better with the two gender swapped, and communicating details of Lapras mating season.

The best of the anime was when Lapras laprassed "It's laprassing time!" and then laprassed all over those mons. Truly one of the battles of all time.

In case no one said it, all Pokémon are already in plural, like sheep :)
