I'm trying to come up with a team consisting of Pokemon that could be construed as racial stereotypes. There's a few obvious ones but I'm struggling to make a team of six without any crossover--that is to say, no using the same race twice. The first four are fairly obvious:
Blacks: Jynx is the obvious answer but I'm consdering Rillaboom instead.
Jews: Hypno or Probopass, leaning Hypno
Mexicans: Ludicolo or Hawlucha, leaning Ludicolo. Perhaps even Scrafty?
Americans: I think Slaking would work better than Snorlax. Purrugly is worth considering as well.
Now, the last two are a bit of a challenge, just because some of the other options I've come up with don't feel quite as... striking, I guess is the word? I could do Hitmonlee or Emboar for Asians and Camerupt for Arabs, maybe that ugly elephant thing from Sw/Sh for Indians. None of them really strike my fancy.
What do you guys think? Any I might have overlooked?
