Dobraine Taborwin: He's the rock-solid Cairhienen Rand leaves in charge, so Golem felt appropriate. And because he's looking after the Sun Throne, a fire type felt right, and so... Torkoal.
I stand by giving him two turtle like pokemon.

Elyas Machera: How did I forget to do him? Okay, so I figured Marrowak would be a left over from when he was a warder, and Hisuian Arcanine he picked up after running off to be a wolfbrother. Yes, the two play fetch with the bone.

Breane Taborwin: As a noblewoman, figured she'd have something cute like Azumarill. Breloom came to mind as it's a fighting type, making me think that she was a gift as a Shroomish from Lamgwin, so she treasures it.

Sebban Balwer: Kind of a double joke here, Archeops because Balwer is so old he doesn't have a bird, he has a feathered dinosaur. And as his job is an obfuscation, I think he'd appreciate a Wobbuffet. There's a theory that the blue thing is a decoy and it's tail is the main part

Lamgwin: I usually try to have a little more variety, but Throh and Sawk seem to just fit so perfectly as Lamgwin's backup that I can't not use them.

Basel Gill: I figure a Lickilicky could be useful around an inn's kitchen with that big ol' tongue, and Toxicroak to help Lamgwin out with bouncer work.

Lini: So the idea of ol' Lini having a cute little flower like Cherrim was too good to not use, and I figured she could use Polteageist to literally make her tea, and help with other chores.

Selucia: I assume a Voice of the Blood could use an assistant like Indeedee, female version but with the male's RBF and the idea of her having an attack elephant like Donphan makes me snicker.

Egeanin: Araquanid as it's an aquatic spider, fits with her ship duties, and a Cramorant as a ships captain could use a scouting bird.

Bayle Domon: I feel like he'd have a Floatzel as he spends a lot of time on the water, and a Grapploct as it's also found by water and can help with heavy lifting.

Narishma: I went with the Hisuian Typholsian as it has a lot of power and a sort of mystical air, and Hisuian Goodra as it's a big armored dragon.

Androl: Abra as it's a teleportation specialist, and Grimmsnarl as it's a powerful fairy type and a counter part to Pevara's Hatterene

Pevara: Sneasler as they're accomplished hunters, and Hatterene as it's a strong psychic type and a counterpart to Androl's Grimmsnarl.

Talanvor: A Kleavor to give him something with weapon hands, and Drednaw, as a guardsman needs something to act as a shield.
June 19, 2025 at 3:46 AM
Talmanes: He's Cairhienan, Cairhien = basically France, French bulldog, Granbull. Sawsbuck as a sub in for a respectable charging horse.

Cadsuane: I figured the human-shaped psychic pokemon Gothitelle fit her nicely, and Eelektross... 100% because it's one of Cynthia's signature pokemon, Cynthia is one of the most badass Champions, and love her or hate her Cadsuane is definitely badass.

Lews Therin Telamon: The OG Dragon (kinda) deserves the OG Dragon, Dragonite, and one of the most intimidating Dragons, Salamence.

Jaret Byar: Forretress to use as a personal shield/bomb. Zangoose to act as his metaphorical sword. It looks mean enough for him.

Dain Bornhald: I should probably do a Whitecloak... So for Dain, Bolthund as a loyal dog feels important to Whitecloaks, and Perserker since it's a sword cat and I could see Dain liking a sword cat.

Verrin: Noctowl seemed obvious, given that she actually has an owl. Beheeyem I envision as a something she found in her travels. It startles everyone who sees it, and Verrin has no idea why. They mostly carry books and supplies for her.

Elida: So I thought Purugly for Elida as it's a mostly female pokemon with resting B face. And Mandibuzz because it's an exclusively female pokemon that looks like it'd enjoy eating the leftovers of Logain, Rand, male channelers in general.

Aludra: The pyrotechnics wizard of the series deserves to explosive Pokemon. Magmorter as it's hands are literal cannons, and Electrode, as it's famous for exploding. Yes, we're going to pretend that it's a left over from the AoL too.

Sulin: Figured she should have a fighting type with as close to a spear as I could find, and I think Heracross' horn qualifies. Gliscor as it feels like a desert dwelling apex predator, which Sulin definitely is. Plus it could probably jab like a spear with her tail.
