Y'know what? I'd be down for a Pokemon game set in a region based on the US Deep South.

Instead of team rocket it's the KKK.
That coon well fed as fuck!
Raccoon for sure. Sure possums are cute, but raccoons are smart and adorable and mischievous
I think I’ve made my choice 
That's just most of North America.
No possums in my area, never seen one any where near. We have raccoons in small numbers. And skunk in small numbers too. Maybe swap for squirrels and you would be closer to the US.
It depends on what party of the country you're in, really. I've got all 3 where I'm at.
In my neck of the woods you swap out the possum for a badger
Coons have hands just sayin
Yeah, beats covering your balls with peanut butter
RACOON ROLL ATTACK!
Ok, why?
Furry goofball lol.
This made me unfathomably happy
I would name that raccoon Samus
He’s gotta go. He’s gotta go fast.

Skunk. He can only do his move about seven times in a row, but it's Super Effective on basically everything but owls.
Owls don’t mind skunk spray?
Birds pretty much universally have little or no sense of smell. Owls are one of the few predators that actually go for skunks.
Correct!
Great Horned Owls will also eat porcupines.
No smallish creature is safe. Foxes, turkeys, bats, fish, scorpions, snakes, other owls. You name it and it's around owl size or smaller, an owls will eat it.
Skunk spray isn't great for their eyes though. Here is an owl in with skunk sprayed eyes.
It can cause irritation or ulceration, and then animals will rub at their eyes, potentially causing further physical damage.
I wouldn't call turkeys smallish, they're certainly larger than owls. At least the ones running the Twin Cities streets like gangs, they're the size of freaking ponies.
The toms get much bigger than owls. The young ones and small hens are sometimes doable for a Great Horn. The owl. Should weigh in around 3.5 pounds and small adult turkey hens are around 5 pounds. The owl will often just take the head.
Owls are also sometimes just that crazy.
Oh I don't doubt it!
Why would you spray skunk in that poor owls eyes
He looked at me funny after I told him not to.
Thankfully I've only been in the building once so far when a skunk decided to blast us. The skunk baby was usually sweet and easygoing, but he sprayed 3 or 4 times in the clinic in a week.
It turned out the one pair of gloves (the orange ones) would freak it out and it would blast whomever was going to grab it. At least it was so small it barely had any booty juice, but skunk smell indoors is no joke. 🤢
Ugh, why am I a badger main?
snakeophobia?
I choose Stinkachu!
Raccoons are smart and have thumbs. I have to go with this guy 🦝 👍
Possums eat spiders. So there's that.
They're also very resistant to rabies so that's a plus they ever bite someone.
Raccoon isn’t getting enough love.
There’s a raccoon who’s obsessed with my barbecue, so maybe I can tame him
Ive been trying to convince my friends its the obvious choice, its got the tankiness of the possum and bonuses to crime

Skunk.
I will get banned from animal fighting immediately, however, I will also get the people there sprayed, making them incredibly easy to identify and catch.
Yeah, that's right. I'm a mole.
Possum all day.
“Possum plays dead. It’s not very effective.”
“Possum takes critical damage “

Tough call between raccoon and possum but I gotta go with my boi possum.
A friend of mine actually has a skunk as a pet.
Cute little critters.
Raccoon no doubt. The theft stat is OP
So our options are:
- powerful but not afraid to lash out at you.
- strong secondary abilities but you will stink forever.
- terrible stats but will not hurt you.
Ya know, I don't think we should be doing animal pit fights with local wildlife, or at all maybe.
