Team Virgo

the Trainer: This one took a lot of thought and effort to conjure, since he's the embodiment of a sign that's entirely female, especially in symbolism. Plus, this time around, it's not his hair that contains the symbolism, but rather the accessories he wears: he has pretty boy earrings and he wears his Mega Stone on a ring, and both accessories tend to be more acceptable on a girl. As a replacement, his hair is just well-combed, as that's apparently what the perfectionist Virgoan male will do. His "Nathan Drake" scarf is actually my interpretation of a possible male counterpart to the virgin's veil, which Virgo represents. I looked up many decent "down-to-earth, but ready to go" outfits for the trainer (as that was the hardest part to create), and while looking up clothes "for the club"(lol no), this one ended up tickling my fancy, as the leather jacket and brown wingtip shoes are very earthy colors, perfect for this next earth sign. The Net Ball he's holding is a nod to a story based on the Roman god Mercury (Hermes is Greek mythology), which is the god associated with Virgo: After Vulcan casted a net at Venus and Mars out of jealousy for their relationship, Mercury later stole the net to catch a nymph he greatly admired. Lastly, since this trainer's name is a Spanish name, I gave him a Latino look to fit.

Shiny Lilligant, the VirginFeels weird using that word...Anyway, Gardevoir was actually a close candidate for the symbol, but since she has a Mega, Lilly took this spot. I think she fits much better than Gardevoir tbh, since she's all things girly: flowery, proper, ladylike, and gentle.

Dewott, the hardworker. I tend to think of Dewott as a Pokemon that works tirelessly to perfect his scalchop skills. Plus, one of his Dex entries says that each Dewott has a distinct fighting style when wielding their scalchops, which only perpetuates the thought that they're hardworkers for me.

Bagon, the overdemanding. This Pokemon is always seen on mountaintops trying to take flight, but can never succeed in their lifelong dream. And of course, as one of my friends so eloquently put it, he demands to fly :P

Mega Gardevoir, the critical. As much as I can't stand this Pokemon, she's very much a part of this team. Virgoans are actually more self-critical than they are critical, and Gardevoir personifies this with the way she valiantly and willingly puts her life at risk to protect her trainer.

Flareon, the warmheartedThis Pokemon has a flame sac that gives it a fire breath of around 3600F, and it's also the fluffiest of all the Eeveelutions. Of course, this one's a more literal take on the warmhearted trait, but it was better for a Fire type to take this slot :XD:

Haunter, the witty. Whenever it shows up in the anime, it is portrayed as a comedic character. On that note, his immediate example of wittiness is when he quickly made Sabrina laugh with his jokes. Witty people are quick thinkers when it comes to humor, so Haunter is a good fit. Plus, Mercury is also associated with commerce and trade, which is fits with Haunter's status as a Pokemon that requires trading to evolve.

I'm a Pisces and for it could you use a shiny Magikarp for the team shiny? It would mean a lot to me
