Pokemon Superlatives

The Pokemon Superlatives are a group of Pokemon Explorers that appear in Pokemon: Unlimited. They are a part of the Pokemon World Government's "assets", and are used by them to keep the "unruly" Pokemon Explorers in line. They were mentioned in Chapter 24: The Meeting, which took place elsewhere on the discussion of Happy and Rippler's "appearance" in the world. Despite serving alongside the Military, they are highly disliked by them. Said to be based on the Type Unity Law that pushed the equal demand for all Pokemon types, this system created by the Pokemon World Government compromises of the 18 types, which serve as a way to maintain world stability. Each Pokemon chosen represents a type, serving under them for the Government's way for equality. The 18 types are Normal, Grass, Fire, Water, Bug, Electric, Ground, Poison, Psychic, Rock, Ice, Fighting, Flying, Dark, Ghost, Dragon, Steel, and Fairy.

## Purpose

The purpose of the Pokemon Superlatives is to maintain world stability for all types, according to the Pokemon World Government. They reflect on a Pokemon's type, serving as an example of how they are supposed to be represented. Despite this, members of the organization have shady dealings, and will be overlooked by the Pokemon World Government until their crimes are brought to light. If such a thing were to come, the individual is removed and replaced by another one to fill the position, which depends on what the Pokemon World Government has at their disposal. Anyone can apply, which can even involve the Military, but must swear allegiance to the Pokemon World Government.

## Trivia

* The Pokemon Superlatives were an inspiration by the Shichibukai (Seven Warlords) from One Piece.
	+ Despite this, the Pokemon Superlatives have an origin relating to Pokemon types being represented.

* The way how the Pokemon Superlatives system is set up is similar to the Council of 18. The only difference is that the Council of 18 were compromised of 18 royal Pokemon coming together to make a better world at the time after Arceus's death, while the Pokemon Superlatives are only meant to represent a type that reflects themselves and maintain world stability.
* Despite being created by the Pokemon World Government, the Superlatives do not actually swear allegiance to them, only using them as ways to gain power in the world.
	+ Ironically, the Pokemon World Government dislikes them due to the fact that most of the members are Explorers. It is also known that they use them to conquer foreign islands in the guise of "bringing salvation".
* Out of all the Superlative members, Smeargasbeard and Buck are the only two that are not Explorers. While Smeargasbeard had connections with the Military, he worked among the Superlatives as a way to keep the image looking good. Buck on the other hand was recruited as part of being Wingpin's "spy", only for the Pokemon World Government to figure out his background, which led him to being outed from the position.
