36 Galar Region Pokemon that would be in Bara Manga

Time to do this and jump into the world of Pokemon, but making it all about Pokemon who are Bara-worthy characters. Pokemon that would obviously be featured in a Bara Manga or Bara Game and just be the main lead and “entice” you. Yes, we’re going there. This started as a joke, but I’ll be doing every region starting with the Galar Region from "Sword and Shield". 


The region of Galar, a place inspired by the UK, with its quaint towns, vast landscapes, and industrial areas. “Sword and Shield” is by far one of the best crafted games (story-wise) that I have a bias for in the Pokemon gaming verse. But let's cut to the chase and dive into the fun part - imagining some of these mighty Pokémon as characters straight out of a steamy Bara Manga. And if I forgot anyone fro the Galar Region, please feel free to let us know on X @boysloveuni! 


Who's that Bara Pokemon? It's...




Rillaboom

Rillaboom


Rillaboom, the final form of Grookey, with its massive drum and hulking figure. This big guy could be the brawny, yet gentle-hearted musician in a Bara story, don't you think?




Obstagoon


Obstagoon


With its rebellious streak and punk rock vibes, Obstagoon screams the bad-boy persona. You can almost see it as the tough exterior, soft interior type, right?





Ludicolo


Ludicolo


This happy-go-lucky Pokémon with a penchant for dancing could easily be the life of the party in any Bara setting. Just imagine the fun scenes with Ludicolo cutting loose!



Drednaw

Diggersby


With those big arms, Diggersby could be the hardworking, rugged character with a heart of gold. Definitely a fan of the outdoors!



Mamoswine

Mamoswine


This big, woolly mammoth of a Pokémon would be the strong, silent type. Maybe a bit shy at first but a total teddy bear once you get to know him.



Golurk


Golurk


Imagine Golurk as the mysterious, ancient guardian with stories of old to tell. He's seen things, and now he's looking for someone to share those tales with.



Bewear


Bewear


Bewear's cuddly appearance and crushing strength make it the perfect gentle giant. Who wouldn't want a big hug from this guy?



Abomasnow


Abomasnow


Standing tall and covered in snow, he's the brooding loner from a snowy mountain, perhaps with a secret warm side.




Pangoro

Pangoro


This rough-and-tumble bear with a sense of honor could be the protective older brother or mentor figure in a Bara story.



Seismitoad


Seismitoad


With its commanding presence and booming voice, Seismitoad could be a leader or a strong, silent type, holding down the fort.





Dusclops & Dusknoir


These ghostly figures add a touch of mystery and otherworldliness, maybe as guardians of ancient secrets or as wise, guiding spirits.





Machoke & Machamp


These muscular Pokémon are the epitome of Bara aesthetics. They could be the gym buddies with hearts as big as their biceps.



Oranguru


Oranguru


The wise, old sage of the group, Oranguru could offer guidance and wisdom to younger Pokémon and trainers alike.

Turtonator


With its explosive personality, Turtonator could be the hotheaded character who's actually a softie inside.

Gengar


With a mischievous streak and a love for the shadows, Gengar would be the playful trickster of the group.

Garbodor


Often misunderstood, this Pokémon could represent the diamond in the rough, with a heart of gold hidden beneath a rough exterior.



Coalossal


Coalossal


Strong and dependable, Coalossal is like the rock of the group, always there to lean on when things get tough.





Excadrill & Gigalith


These ground and rock types are as tough as they come, perfect for the rugged adventurer or the strong, silent loner.

Conkeldurr 


Another muscular type, Conkeldurr could be the seasoned veteran with a lot of wisdom and strength to offer.

Strong and disciplined, Throh could be the dedicated fighter or protector, always ready to stand up for what's right.

The iconic fire-breather, Charizard could be the passionate, fiery soul, always ready for action and adventure.



Tyranitar

Tyranitar


This towering force of nature is the stoic, powerful presence, a rock-solid anchor in any storm.


These Pokémon could easily find a place in Bara Manga. There’s fanart (you know there is), but some of these big boys have hardly been featured anywhere. So, next time you're roaming the wilds of Galar, maybe give a second thought to the Bara potential of the Pokémon you encounter. And who you might want to…give a big bear hug. Ha, yep. That’s what I meant. This was a joke article, turned serious! Alright next region.
