If we had one trainer from each region act as a sage to protect

Cynthia and Alder for Sinnoh and Unova

I wanna say Hala for Alola?

Red and Gold for Kanto and Johto

I'm not sure if the protagonists can be counted since they'd be pursuing the threat directly just like Link would.

>Red
>Gold
>Steven
>Cynthia
>Iris
>Drasna
>Hala

There are 16 mc, I don't think we need 16 Links
(17 if you count Brendan and Orlando as separate characters)

Wally is clearly the sage of time, explaining why he's still a shota despite being the same age as red.

>>30256694
Agatha or Blaine
Clair
Steven, replaced by Wally eventually
Cynthia
Alder, replaced by Iris or N eventually
Wulfric
Hala or Kukui

Probably something like that.

since you did not say it had to be a important trainer i say YOUNGSTER JOEY

Actually, for Kalos, Gurkinn or Korrina could also be a possibility instead of Wulfric.

Redeemed Giovanni. Professor Oak is alternate choice. Red is MC, he ain't no sage nigga.

Silver. A good alternative for gen 1/2 is Lance. The dude in Crystal that was hungry for Suicune's cock is a fun choice.

Norman. He's the best. Wally is a super fun choice here too. Ain't nobody got more heart.

Flint or Volkner.

N.

No one really stood out in XY. Default to MC, I guess.

Haven't played SM yet.

>Lt. Surge
Can rally troops and call shots with his experience
>Lance
Strongest trainer in Johto and a Dragon Master
>Steven
Strongest trainer in Hoenn and has Steel types to counter Lance's weaknesses.
>Looker
Expert spy.
>N
Will take unorthodox routes to get shit done.
>Psychic Type Gym Leader
Psychic powers.
>Kukui
All around nice guy who can get everyone to cooperate.

The dream team.

If X is canon, then your protagonist is immortal, so I'd say undying champion who freely controls a god of life for Kalos

Every game is canon you clown.
