Collective Nouns for Pokemon: The List

There are, in the English language, a vast variety of venery. Venery are very specific collective nouns for groups of a thing. These words, usually for animals or people, range from the common (A Murder of Crows) to the obscure (A Sounder of Boar) and the whimsical (A Romp of Otters.)

Why do we not have these words for Pokémon?

When one comes across a problem such as this, one is compelled to solve it. My labor is your gain, dear reader. Thus I have compiled these nouns for your use and bemusement – though I have limited my labor to those most well-known of the beasts, the first 151.

So, without further ado.
