SB Nation released a list of all 129 major college football teams as Pokemon...

Here are the MAC schools as follows:

Akron: A largely irrelevant program with a goofy mascot needs a largely irrelevant Pokemon that is also goofy looking. May we present Lickitung?

Ball State: A bird that is bad at flying, but can sometimes win anyway. Doduo.

Bowling Green: High-scoring, fast, bird-mascot team? That sounds an awful lot like Dodrio, which uses its three brains to create the MAC's best offense.

Buffalo: is a tadpole in a small pool. Buffalo is Poliwag, a literal tadpole.

Central Michigan: The remaining Pokemon best equipped to yell, "FIRE UP CHIPS," is Vulpix, a fire-fox.

Eastern Michigan: MISSINGNO, the glitch Pokemon. If Eastern Michigan is on your screen, something went horribly wrong.

Kent State: Like Team Rocket, Kent State loses most of their battles, but they're also responsible for the single biggest bad guy in the sport. In this case, former Kent State football player Nick Saban.

Ohio: Another useful, early-season type. Highly comfortable in the Appalachian foothills, probably knows how to hold its poison, can make things difficult for some teams, probably not going to win anything huge. Ohio, you're Ekans, a snake Pokemon.

Miami : Known as the Cradle of Coaches, Miami is Professor Oak, the closest thing to a coach you'll find in the Pokemon universe.

NIU: The 2012 Orange Bowl participant has achieved basically all it can, which sounds like Butterfree. You max out everything the toxic butterfly can do around level 22, you say thanks for the memories, and then you leave it in the computer for the rest of the game.

Toledo: Overachieving, fast, and can be tough as hell in the early season. That's like the blue and yellow Starmie, the best Pokemon from the game's second gym.

Western Michigan: An intense program named after horses is the perfect fit for Rapidash, a horse that is actually on fire. Not sure how one is able to Row The Boat with hooves though.

As a child of the 90's, I love this. Do you agree with your school's character? If not, can you think of a better Pokemon character to represent your school's football team?

EDIT: Only the original 151 Pokemon along with the characters in the original Red and Blue cartridges apply (Professor Oak, Brock, Misty, Ash, Team Rocket, etc....)

Are you kidding me? Butterfree is one of the ones I always have in my final lineup, because of its ability to learn psychic attacks.

I liked to keep Butterfree in my lineup because sleep powder was an effective move in capturing wild pokemon. I'd often swap him out when it came to gym battles and when I'd face the elite four.

If you're Butterfree's a high enough level, and you increase it's speed, it can single-handedly defeat both Bruno & Agatha without much trouble.
