Ok ok I have formulated a pokemon team for Madelyne. I wanted to give her a full 6 pokemon, I haven’t stuck to one particular type for her but they do all have distinct vibe
Mimikyu (Ghost/Fairy). Listen, it dresses up like Pikachu because it wants to be loved, I think Maddie would take one look at this weird little thing and put it in her pocket
Houndoom (Fire/Dark) but specifically Mega Houndoom. Look it up and tell me it’s not absolutely sick. It’s very Limbo/Inferno vibes
Bannette (Ghost). It’s a pokemon that manifests from a doll that’s angry it was thrown away, I think Maddie can empathise
Type: Null (Normal)- it was created as a failed experiment and wears a helmet that restrains if, but if you earn it’s trust it evolves into Silvally, which is free of the mask. Again, I think Maddie would empathise and be able to evolve it
Noivern (Dragon/Flying). I wanted to give her a pokemon she could fly with because she was a pilot, and Noivern also sort of works as a nod to the Bamf Dragon that the alternate Goblin Queen had. Also it’s one of my favourites so
Delphox (Fire/Psychic). She needed at least one psychic type, she is a telepath after all, and Delphox is also very much witch vibes, which works with Maddie being a sorceress. Delphox is also a final evolution starter pokemon (my favourite starter actually, i don’t care that people think it’s weird and ugly ok I love it), so Maddie could have picked it up pre-Inferno and kept it with her. I really like the shiny, so maybe shiny Delphox, but also Maddie does like yellow, idk
I didn’t give her Mewtwo bc I wanted to stay away from legendaries, and also Mewtwo is basically a person and I don’t think Madelyne would ever force it to be on her team. Rest assured they’re chill though, they hang out
Is this team balanced? No, not really, but Silvally can change types with specific items, so she can at least cover some of her bases. I went more for vibes than actual viability. Did I give her three of my favourite pokemon? Yes, mind your business.
