The MightyThor, Norse God Of Thunder, is one of the most powerful heroes in the Marvel universe. Equipped with incredible strength and immortality like all his Asgardian brethren, Thor's power is augmented even further by his use of Mjolnir, a mystically-enchanted hammer made of Uru which enables him to manipulate the weather and generate lightning blasts.

While unspeakably powerful on his own, Thor is also fundamentally a team player. Aside from often working or battling alongside his fellow Asgardians, he's one of the founders and most consistent members of the Avengers. So, if Thor's world were to somehow collide with the Pokmonuniverse, what team would the God of Thunder assemble? Let's find out.

ManyPokmon trainers, gym leaders, in particular, choose to concentrate on capturing and trainingPokmon of one specific elemental Type, of the 18 that exist in the universe. With Thor, there can be little question that he'd gravitate towards Electric-Types. He is the God of Thunder, after all, with command over lightning, and so he would be naturally comfortable training Pokmon with similar abilities to his own.

He's also likely to appreciate the raw power of the strongest Electric-Type attacks such as Thunder. Now comes the next question: of the numerous Electric-Type Pokmon, which would Thor choose to capture and train for himself?

Zapdos is a Legendary Pokmon, an incredibly rare Pokmon of awesome power. Zapdos is part of the"Legendary Bird" triumvirate introduced in Generation 1alongside Articuno and Moltres; whereas the former two wield Ice and Fire in addition to their innate Flying-Types, Zapdos is a dual Electric/Flying-Type.

Zapdos' typing and Legendary status make it a perfect fit for the God of Thunder'sPokmon team; given Thor is a hero of awesome power whose story originates in myth, then it makes sense that he wouldn't train just any Electric-Type, but one of equal power and stature to himself.

Another Legendary Electric-Type, Raikou was introduced in Generation II ofPokmon as part of another Legendary trio, this one native to the Johto region. Legends say that Raikou and its compatriots, Entei and Suicune, known collectively as the "Legendary Beasts," were trapped in the burning Brass Tower centuries ago and perished, before being reincarnated by the legendaryPokmon Ho-Oh.

With Entei and Suicune being clear counterparts to Moltres and Articuno, Raikou mirrors Zapdos just as well, and so it only makes sense that Raikou would fit just as well on Thor's team alongside its fellow legendary Electric-Type.

Another Pokmon of Legendary status, the Electric/Dragon-Type Zekrom is native to the Unova region, as introduced in Generation V. Legends say that Zekrom and its counterpart Reshiram were one a single dragon shared by two brothers, but conflict between the two split the dragon in half, creating Zekrom, partner to the Hero of Truth, and Reshiram, partner to the Hero of Ideals.

As another Legendary Electric-Type, Zekrom is a perfect fit to join Thor'sPokmon team. Topping it off, the split between brothers central to Zekrom's backstory mirrors Thor's own tumultuous relationship with his adopted brother Loki.

Another Unova-Native Legendary Electric-Type, Thundurus is just as good a fit for Thor's team as Zekrom is. Like the aforementioned Legendary Pokmon, Thundurus isa member of a Legendary trio, this one known as the "Forces of Nature" and also including Landorus and Tornadus. Together the three represent the sky and its symbiotic relationship with the Earth that it covers.

Unlike the Ground/Flying-Type Landorus and pure Flying-Type Tornadus, Thundurus is an Electric/Flying-Type, much like Zapdos, for Thundurus embodies the destructive power of Thunderstorms. Considering Thor is, again, the God of Thunder who wields the power of such storms in battle, he and Thundurus are a match made in the heavens.

Magnezone was introduced in Generation IVas the final in the evolution chain of Magnemite then Magneton. Magnezone may be an Electric-Type, but unlike the others listed up to this point, the Magnet AreaPokmon is not a legendaryPokmon. Rather, it's one that can be commonly found in the wild. However, there is another quality to Magnezone, specifically its typing, that makes it a perfect fit for Thor'sPokmon team.

Magnezone has a dual-typing. In addition to its Electric qualities, it also classified as a Steel-Type. This means that Magnezone is essentially a metal conduit throughwhich the power of electricity can flow. In short, it's very reminiscent of Thor's trademark hammer Mjolnir, forged from the metal Uru. Furthermore, Magnezone has access to physical Steel-Type attacks such as Bullet Punch and Gyro Ball, which reflect Thor's proclivity for using Mjolnir as a purely physical weapon as well.

Manectric, a pure Electric-Type introduced in Generation III alongside its pre-evolution Electrike, earns its place of the Mighty Thor's team not just due to its Electric-typing, but some special qualities it possesses that put it over some of its fellow Electric Pokmon.For one, Manectric has access to Mega-Evolution, a special ability introduced in Generation VI that allows fully-evolved Pokmon to further evolve to a powered-up state if they're in possession of a Mega Stone that can react with their trainer's Key Stone.

Mega Evolution gives Manetric an edge that not allPokmon have, and so would make it an attractive pick to someone as rawly powerful as Thor. Furthermore, Manectric's design is decidedly canine, echoing the appearance of the Fenris Wolf, a figure from Norse mythology and frequent adversary of Marvel's Thor.He would revel at the chance to tame a Pokmon that reminds him of an adversary.
