>>56830561>They can't and won't keep my buddy away from the anime forever. One day it will be back.Dot is the literal go-to choice in regards to Porygon in the very very unlikely case of it popping up again. Liko's main characteristics that are to compliment her narrative and character are firstly Painting, Cooking, closely followed by history (ergo Rakua, Hisui by proxy of Kleavor) or Pokemon who are a glove to her empathic aspects like Hatenna. Narrowing it down under the assumption that aside from Friede who is the obligational Kanto Rep and focusing solely on the latest gens of Pokemon (Galar and Paldea) as available capture candidates minus the Pokemon who are not natively available in Paldea, that narrows it down to a sizeable amount of choices for Liko.
But my personal picks stay Shroodle, Greavard or in the more convential manner, Litleo.
