Other than their pokemon, who does your oc consider to be their best friends?
Elio has quite a few people he would consider his best friends - people he would literally bend over backward for without hesitation should the situation call for it. Among them are:
🔵[Choi Taejin] - his ever-loyal-follower-turned-significant-other.
🟤[Ashe Solur] - his first-ever genuine friend known for his short stature and introversion that beguiles his godly jack-of-all-trades skill set: especially at his (then) age, which only improved significantly over time due to a plethora of external factors and his personal desire to support Elio in any way he could.
🟡[Andrew Faradohm] - Elio's occasional "partner-in-crime" well-known for being a 'happy-go-lucky golden-haired electromaster' and one of Unova's resident Top Rangers: touted by many to be the best in his field - even amongst those in the Martial Arts world.
Despite being part of Elio's inevitable "harem", all of them share a myriad of intimate experiences with Elio - individually, in pairs, or as a trio, often seeing the silver-haired prodigy at his lowest and, in their respective ways, helped him to become a much better version of his previous self.
Wayva and ironus. Grendam and caporei.
For Joltenne that'd be Andreas, Wisp (more like an older brother) as well as @Narutsuart's Libelle & @Khyllax's Norra.
Leilani is also friends with @LudinVibes's Willy.
For Briar, her immediate best friends are naturally Rose and Oleana, they're her ride or dies and the people she talks the most every day. But she also has a couple of more people she considers close to her, like Grimsley, who's a childhood friend of hers (her dad and Grimsley's dad know each other); they kinda fell apart when Grimsley became a member of the Elite Four and Briar moved to Kalos for college, but after some years they started talking again and they became somewhat closer with the years.
Another important friend of hers is Jacq. They were classmates in Lumiose University since they were both studying to become biologists. Jacq means so much to Briar since he helped her with her scientific career, even if he's not aware of this. Not only for the mutual motivation during class, but also after graduating, Jacq was the one who helped Briar go to Paldea for a while to study engineering, that would become crucial to her career in the future. He's also the one who introduced Briar to Oleana, and the story speaks for itself.
Lastly, another character I'd like to add is Colress. I think they would meet in Alola and I like to think they became friends because they're both unhinged enough with their researches to understand each other LOL So that's how they clicked.
Estella kinda doesn't have a best friend. She's got loads of acquaintances, some rivals, people she gets along with, and even love interests now but no one she'd call a best friend :(
For Norrie, Charlie and Ohtli! Those girls are the world to her!
Leticia, Vera, and Belinda all also love Ohtli, not bc she’s their princess but bc they all have been best friends since literally babies 🥹🥹🥹
Nero has a soft spot for Aurora as he sees her as the little sister he always wanted!
Avian burned a lot of bridges as a kid in Sinnoh and after Darkest Day looking to fix things up. As for modern life... Briar's probably the only friend he has in Macro Cosmos. Despite being a wealthy superstar who considers taxation a theft and not subtle about finding his parents hot the two keep each other grounded. as andie once said, every girlboss needs a boyemployee.
Arryn and Stahl married their best friends. Each other.
That's a bit of a layered question for Odd, as he'd have to specify if it was before or after he left his home region
If it was before, then he had five close friends during his high school/college years whom he went through some life changing events with alongside.
It's just that, in the present, two of those five are dead, two others are missing and presumed dead, and the fifth is in a coma she hasn't woken up from in a few years (though Odd has faith she'll pull through)
After leaving his home, in his cafe owning present, he would most likely consider Hope as his best friend
For most of their lives, two of my ocs (Pace and Olivia) have been best friends!! They'd met after Olivia moved to Wedgehurst, and even went on their Gym Challenge together! Though they did have a lil bit of a falling out a few years ago bc of events that happened in their lives, they still care deeply for each other despite not seeing each other much.
Cyril's best friend has always been Astra (Bees' oc whom I adore). They were such close friends that they fell in love and it took Cyril a stupid amount of time to realise that his feelings weren't exactly platonic
