* MonsAsCharacterization: Each of the lead character's main partner serves as a vehicle for their development across the series.
** Ash Ketchum's very first partner, Pikachu, started out the series stubborn and disobedient, much like Ash was when he first began his journey. Over time, Pikachu would mellow out and become not just Ash's most loyal partner, but his most powerful one, as the two simultaneously grew to become [[spoiler:the strongest team in the entire Pokémon world.]] Likewise, each of his [[TheAce aces]] from the various series--Charizard, Sceptile, Infernape, Greninja, and Lucario--all started out as [[BloodKnight battle-hungry]] Pokémon who were eager to get stronger in the same way that Ash wanted to, and wind up growing strong enough to power through against tough opponents most folks would have trouble with.
** Misty's entire team consists entirely of Water Types, as they're her personal favorites on account of [[MakingASplash her love]] [[WaterIsWomanly for all things]] oceanic. Of note is her Gyrados, whom was once a Magikarp she had performed in an underwater ballet with while she was dressed as a mermaid. However, it was once very short-tempered and prone to violence, much like she was during her early travels with Ash, but she was able to mellow it out like she did, and the two have grown powerfully strong.
** Brock's first partner was an Onix, and both he and it were introduced in the series as exceptionally powerful. After joining Ash, both got hit with TheWorfEffect and were the subject of constant defeats, but once both had been PutOnABus, they managed to make a spectacular comeback and demolished all in their path. It helped that Onix had since evolved into a Steelix, and gained Mega-Evolution, in the same way that Brock had evolved from wanting to be a breeder to becoming a doctor instead. Some of his other Mons, like Marshtomp and Ludicolo, picked up on his girl-crazy habits, but others like his Geodude are often OutOfFocus like he tended to be in comparison to the rest of the group.
** May's Torchic was very much like her--a ButtMonkey that was under-confident in his own abilities and constantly getting slapped around. As the two grew together, Torchic evolved into a more skilled and confident Combusken before it ended its run as an all-powerful Blaziken, similar to how May was able to [[TookALevelInBadass grow even more powerful and confident]] herself. The same case could be made of her Squirtle, although it was much more of a crybaby than May.
** Dawn's team consists entirely of "cute" Pokémon (excepting Mamoswine), including her SignatureMon, Piplup, befitting that they're all performers by nature and place a heavy emphasis on being well-presented. What's especially of note is that none of them have changed since ''Diamond and Pearl'' ended, even by the time of ''Journeys'', similar to how Dawn has remained a StaticCharacter (unlike the rest of Ash's companions, who have had some evolutions since last seen).
** Iris's partner is an Axew that acts a lot like her--he's very fond of Pikachu, he calls Ash a "kid" (even though he's still a baby himself), he wants to get stronger and evolve, and he tends to fumble through a lot of silly situations. By the time of ''Journeys'', [[spoiler:he had evolved into a Haxorus, growing just as strong as Iris, who had become the Champion of Unova.]]
** Cilan's partner is a Pansage that shares his flamboyance and his green color, though it, along with his Crustle and Stunfisk, are OutOfFocus like their owner in terms of CharacterDevelopment between the Unovan Group.
** Serena's Sylveon was once a shy Eevee, that, like her trainer, was unsure of what path she wanted to take in life and had little confidence in her own abilities. But with some patience, the help of her friends, and the kindness and understanding of the most important person in her life, she would evolve into a much more confident person, similar to Serena.
** Clemont's Bunnelby is the StraightMan to the ComicRelief that is Chespin, as both it and its owner have to temper down the squirrel's tendencies to wander off, get distracted by other Pokémon, or handle Chespin's voracious appetite.
** Bonnie's Dedenne is as equally cheery and fond of cute Pokémon as its owner, though it fortunately doesn't share Bonnie's desire to find her brother a wife.
** Lillie's partner is an Alolan Vulpix named Snowy, whose color of white is the same as its owner. Both are very shy and afraid of Pokémon (in Lillie's case, other Pokémon making contact with her, while Snowy stubbornly brushes off other Pokémon), but the two both overcome their initial fears and are able to better sync with one another to grow stronger.
** Mallow's Bounsweet is just as equally sweet as its owner, but it can be just as dangerous when [[BewareTheNiceOnes its pissed off]], especially as it evolves, just as much as Mallow can be. The two are also not very battle experienced compared to the rest of their classmates, and get handily eliminated when the Alolan League comes around.
** Lana and her Popplio are big lovers of the sea, and bound together by a deep desire to explore it. Both are also [[CloudCuckoolander a little odd]] (though the seal is more of a goofball and she has a surprisingly dark side to her).
** Kiawe and his Alolan Marowak are stubborn, hardheaded, and fierce battlers bound in raging fire, and never ones to back down from a challenge.
** Sophocles and his Togedemaru are both round, portly characters with a finesse for electricity and a great deal of excitement for whatever comes their way.
** Goh's Galarian Starters (Cinderace, Inteleon, and Grookey) each represent the character's own personality; Grookey his child-like excitement and curiosity, Cinderace his can-do attitude, and Inteleon his cleverness.
** Chloe and her Eevee both start out the series as being unsure of what they want to do in life, and both take various journeys to find that path, but both decide they're happy just being who they are for now and aren't in any rush to change that.
** Ash Ketchum's very first partner, Pikachu, started out the series stubborn and disobedient, much like Ash was when he first began his journey. Over time, Pikachu would mellow out and become not just Ash's most loyal partner, but his most powerful one, as the two simultaneously grew to become [[spoiler:the strongest team in the entire Pokémon world.]] Likewise, each of his [[TheAce aces]] from the various series--Charizard, Sceptile, Infernape, Greninja, and Lucario--all started out as [[BloodKnight battle-hungry]] Pokémon who were eager to get stronger in the same way that Ash wanted to, and wind up growing strong enough to power through against tough opponents most folks would have trouble with.

* DubPronunciationChange:
** Italian is one of the few languages that keeps the English names for the namesake creatures, but dubs often stumbled with some pronounces and [[InconsistentDub went back and forth with different takes]].
*** Meowth's name has been pronounced "Meh-o" from the beginning until 2009, when it was changed to a more faithful "Meow".
*** Around late 2012, with the release of ''Pokédex 3D Pro'', multiple Italian pronounciations were changed permanently, with the new takes being used in every piece of media (anime, games and so on). Weirdly, this means that a lot of names that were pronounced in correct English have been replaced with more Italian-ish and wrong-sounding ones (such as Wobbuffet being pronounced "Wob-boo-fet", Lugia becoming "Lou-jah" and most bafflingly Glaceon being pronounced "Glace-on", making it [[DubInducedPlotHole sound completely different from the other Eeveelution names]]).
** In [[DuelingDubs one of the Portuguese dubs]], Pikachu's name is kept the same, but the humans say it like "peek-a-shoo" [[InconsistentDub even though Pikachu himself clearly pronounces it like "peek-a-choo"]].
** In the Czech version, Pichu was simply nameless due to the fact that its name [[CleanDubName sounds like their word for "cunt"]]. Later on, however, its name was pronounced like "pic-chu".
** In Japanese, Arceus's name is pronounced "ar-say-us", but in the English version, it is pronounced "ark-ee-us" because the original pronunciation [[CleanDubName sounds too much like "arse"]].
** Doubling over with InconsistentDub in the English version, Regice's name was initially pronounced as "redge-ee-ice" in ''Anime/PokemonLucarioAndTheMysteryOfMew'', but in later appearances it is pronounced "Redge-ice". Oddly enough, Regice still clearly pronounces its own name like "redge-ee-ice".
** In the Japanese dub, Serena's name is pronounced "seh-reh-na", but in the English dub, it is pronounced "suh-reena".
** In the Japanese dub, Lusamine's name is pronounced "loo-sa-mee-neh", but the English dub changed it to "loo-sa-meen".
