Fans of Overwatch 2 have shown off some seriously creative projects in the past, but a particularly alternative project recently shared among the community entertains the idea of the game's heroes as Pokemon, and what type each member of the roster would use.

Most of the game's characters use dual typings, and the list does include the most recent playable hero, Venture.

Many fans allured by this creative post have made their own suggestions as to how some heroes' types could be adjusted. Ultimately, the types that each hero would use is up to each fan's
