Do you need Ness and Lucas, Wolf, Falco, and Fox? Jigglypuff, Mewtwo, Lucario, Pikachu, Pokemon Trainer.

There are characters with a lot of overlap that do not necessarily make great individuals.
Pokemon Trainer 2.0 should nab all the Pokemon in one shot.

Lucario and MewTwo should be by themselves. But I agree with the rest.
