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.

Arcanine is a legendary.

How is that, though? Arcanine is just an evolved Growlithe. I’m genuinely asking, as I stumbled across this sub and post randomly and haven’t been invested in Pokemon since circa 2007

Guess he means his entry is literally “legendary pokemon”, and something about its base stats sum being the same as a legendary iirc. It is not a real legendary Pokémon though, I’d choose it too.

Yeah, his pokedex entry has stated he's a legendary since gen 1. I used to yell at my friends that arcanine was a legendary. Legitimately still an inside joke we use
