Is the plural for Riolu Riolu or Riolus?

Just thinking like
I feel like, for a lot of Pokémon, using the singular form as like. their plural form? Feels better??
I think like. A flock of Wingull sounds better than A flock of Wingulls.
A troop of Chimchar
A school of Basculin

I'm unsure if it's entirely, grammatically correct
But for most I think, it sounds better.

An aside, also entirely unsure about how you'd capitalize Pokémon names. Feel like in most Pokémon media, Pokémon names are always capitalized like they're proper nouns. But are they??
Like you don't capitalize cat or dog or fish but you do capitalize Purrugly or Lillipup or Seaking

It's strange.

Maybe it's because you have Pokémon that're already categorized into like. Different?? Categories??
Mice Pokémon, dog Pokémon, fish, bugs, dragons.
Common.

I'm pretty sure the plural form of all pokemon names are the same as their singular, in just about every case I've seen. As for proper nouns, I think you technically are supposed to capitalize them, because they're also considered names? I'm not sure about that one though, and also I'm definitely too lazy to do that...

dflr sure its riolj…riolu……though. i like calling myself Zorua and it can get confusing so sometime i’ll hear “zoruas” for a plural, though i defaulyt to “zorua” or something “zors” is good too cause it’s better. imo. and capitalism is done on a whim for me. Sorua or zorua they’re all the same but if i typed , like, professionallmy? about pokémon? id go with Zorua the capital Zorua. Capital Zorua Plural Zorua. is my summary.
