As of today, there are a total of 1,015 different Pokémon meaning 1,496,352,756,653,755 team combinations and that’s if you don’t have more than one of the same creature amongst the six. That number is 1 quadrillion, 496 trillion, 352 billion, 756 million, 653 thousand, 755. Picking the right group can be tricky, whether you’re playing competitively or for fun so if you’re bored of picking the same Pokémon each time, why not spruce things up a bit? Inspired by a Reddit post I saw the other day, I’ve put together some “fantasy teams” based on cartoons and films, updated to include Pokémon from Scarlet and Violet.
