Common Grounds

In this game you list any three Pokemon related things (Trainers, Items, Routes/Regions, Pokemon, Moves, Abilities etc. etc. ) and the next person to post has to guess what they have in common and list three new Pokemon related things.
It's okay if the three things have more than one thing in common, they just need to have something in common! If there is more than 1 commonality you only have to say one, but are free to mention any others too.

You are allowed to give a short hint (1-5 words) if you think the thing your three have in common might be hard to guess. Giving a hint or not is completely optional!

For example:

Person 1:

What do the following have in common?
Arcanine, Flareon, Simisear
Hint: Evolution

Person 2:

They are all Fire Stone evolutions! (and they are also all Fire types)

Passimian, Oranguru, Rillaboom

Person 3:

They are all Pokemon based on Monkeys.

Brawly, Chuck, Korrina
Hint: Gyms

Person 4:

They are all Fighting type Gym Leaders!

etc, etc, etc.

To kick things off, what do the following have in common?

Nickit, Fennekin, Vulpix

Generation I bug types! Also, I think Bugsy uses all of them?

How about...Aerodactyl, Altaria, and Audino?
 
All of them are evolutions introduced in different generations than the pre evolutions.

Tauros, Rhydon, Linoone.

hint: HM
 
All of them can learn the HM Strength! And get STAB from it in battle, of course, because they're all Normal-types.

Falinks, Kangaskhan, Calyrex.

Falinks, Kangaskhan, Calyrex.

Strength works too, but I had surf in mind. Rhydon learns surf for some reason.

I'll let someone else answer @Vielleroue's post since I just played.
 
They're all villainous team bosses! Additionally, all featured in Gen VI, even though Archie and Maxie debuted in Gen III.

Koga, Byron, Melony
 
They all have Hustle as their Hidden Ability.

Bibarel, Salazzle, Shedinja
Hint: typings frequency

they've all got unique type combinations!

what do Munchlax, Chansey, and Jigglypuff have in common?
 
All three need high friendship to evolve!

What do Machamp, Heracross and Obstagoon have in common?
 
^ Yup, they all had Guts as an ability!

Hmm, they all learn the physical ghost-type move Astonish! Is that it?

What do Togepi, Piplup and Axew have in common?
Hint: Anime
 
They were all walking Pokémon like Ash's Pikachu! They were rarely seen being sent back to their Poké Balls, and most often seen wandering around with their respective Trainers - Misty, Dawn and Iris. Additionally, said Trainers were all Ash's companions, and thus said Pokémon eventually became good friends with Ash's Pikachu.

Frillish, Gourgeist, Mimikyu.
Hint: Anime
 
I don't watch the Anime so I was kinda waiting for someone else to get it =p
All three of them were part Ghost type, but that's not specific to the Anime hint.

Anyway, those are all Dual types with one type being Normal?
They also all got the same gender ratio (Male: 50.2%, Female: 49.8%)
They all can learn Agility, although for Heliolisk you need a TR.

Growlithe, Zorua, Voltorb
Hint: Legends
