Not sure I'd have Butterfree and Beedrill on the same team but it could be a cool team battle.

Farfetch'd vs Delibird is cool. Both have some nice extra background stuff to work with.

Corsola is a fucking weird Pokémon. Luvdisc is also really weird. Could work, although I might be short of any real material for Corsola considering how insignificant it is in the lore.

I'm having trouble with deciding my plan of attack with the pseudo-legendaries. I'll get back to you on this.

Hydreigon vs Dodrio is funny. I feel like I'd maybe use Doduo instead of Dodrio for some reason but maybe.

Genesect vs Mewtwo is cool. I'm a fan.

The idea's super interesting but a bit convoluted I think. Legendary vs non-legendary is difficult for me.

Zoroark vs Ditto is a cool idea, but there might be better opponents for both.

Alolan Exeggutor will be used in an off-season, I guarantee that.

Every region has basic bird Pokémon so I ain't sure about doing that. Loads of region royales would seem uninspired honestly.

Emboar vs Grumpig's quite nice, I'll see.

Gogoat vs Miltank is okay. Mareep/Flaaffy might be a better choice against Miltank if I wanna go for Gogoat vs Rhyhorn. Pokémon like Chansey and Snorlax would be good opponents for Miltank too in terms of the infinite HP fuckers.

Celebi vs Dialga is a cool idea for a legendary battle, yeah.

Dunno if names are something I wanna go near.

Electrode vs Amoongus is funny, ye

Not sure about doing Litleo after using Pyroar but I'm certainly up for using Litten. I'm tryna figure what I might do for the release of Sun and Moon.

Clefable vs Wigglytuff seems straightforward enough. Might do it, but I also might look for other good opponents for both. Would kinda rather use Clefairy and Jigglypuff.

Drifblim vs Chandelure is aight I suppose. Could go a little deeper with the connection.

As you said, counterpart battles are iffy. Lunatone and Solrock would work much better as teammates I think (not against Lunaala and Solgaleo though, lmao).

I don't get the connection for Shuckle vs Blissey.

Slaking vs Regigigas is eh because legendary vs non-legendary but perhaps.

Jesus Christ man, I need a lemonade.
