>>34977047>ArbokI caught a snake when i was really young and took care of him for a while before my parents told me it 'ran away'. The real life equivalent of Ekans.
>GengarWhen i was young I used to play hide and seek with the moon by waiting for it to go behind clouds and then hiding somewhere in the shadows so the moonlight didnt touch me. Shadow pokemon.
>Banette >Garbodor My dad would get used things for me as a kid as we were hella poor and he would also go dumpster diving on occasion. Shuppet and Trubbish.
>Shedinja I used to collect cicada shells as a young kid. They blew my mind.
>Butterfree When i was a kid I would bring catapillars in to my room and put them in an aquarium and raise them. Id come home from 3rd grade tp butterflies in my room and let them go out the window.
Whenever I think of what Pokemon I'd have IRL i try to base it off my actual life best I can.
