Closest In-Game Pokemon
(as seen in title)
What are your three closest mons between all of your games?
I had this fun thought a while back so I thought I'd make a thread about it. My original thought was "if you lost all your games and could only keep three of your mons (and a 6IV Ditto for breeding), which would they be?" But that question is just a downer, so I rephrased it. I would like to clarify that this is not overall favorite Pokemon species, but individual mons you own in specific save files. Generally mons you have personal/humorous backstories with. There's also probably better words to use than "close", but I'm just rolling with it.(as seen in title)
What are your three closest mons between all of your games?
Close mons can include stuff like:
- First starter
- First Legendary
- First Shiny
- Any of the above just not your first
- Mon you used in a wacky/special playthrough
- Nuzlocke MVP
- Competitive battling MVP
- Gift from friend
- Other
Here are mine, and if this is confusing they can also be seen as examples. I admittedly don't have three, but it's not like it's a strict requirement or anything.

Ocean the Samurott (M)
Quirky Nature, Somewhat of a clown
With White being my first game, this Oshawott was my first starter. As you can see, I was quite creative with nicknames. Also, similar to a lot of first-time players, it was by far my highest level throughout the game. By the closing credits, Ocean was lvl 70 and would become my first lvl 100. What's also a fun detail is that I find it being quirky and somewhat of a clown to be somewhat similar to myself. Overall, I find Samurott to be okay design wise, but to this day Dewott remains to be one of my fav mons. Just your classic first starter stuff.

GENGAR the Gengar (F)
Naive Nature, often dozes off
I used this mon in my first playthrough of Platinum. It wasn't the most "ordinary" playthroughs though, since I had gotten the same used and the player had only just reached Eterna Forrest. Oh yeah also they had a Ho-oh, Moltres, and Zapdos on their team for some reason, and no starter (they had Piplup and Prinplup regiester in the dex tho). I caught this Gastly in Eterna Forrest, not sure if it was my first encounter or anything, but it eventually became my "starter". Bcuz lvl 50 legendaries at 1 badge will only listen to you so much. It was a Haunter for most of the playthrough, but is now a Gengar sitting in my White save file alongside Ocean. Gengar has come to be another of my favorite mons, and I even main it in Unite. While this Gengar didn't have a nickname, I often name my Gastlys/Haunters/Gengars Toni, after the name my trainer had in that Platinum save file.
Since I'm not sure what I'd put in third, I thought I'd just give some shout outs!
- Weavile, White: Got this Sneasel to mid 70s before finding out you needed to hold an item to evolve
- Altaria, White: It was a random mon I caught early postgame, ended up being my second lvl 100
- Zekrom, White: First legendary
- Shiny Lunatone, White: My first shiny ever and I accidentally KOed it, but recently reclaimed after ~3 months of hunting
Them all being from my White save file is somewhat coincidental, although it being my first game probably contributes.
End of example.
So yeah, post your closest mons between all your games and why you love them so!
