"Which direction does a Cyclops wing his eyeliner...Doesn't matter cause Nobody is going to criticize him anyway."

Remember me
I'm the reigning King of Ithaca
I am neither man nor mythical
I am your darkest moment
I am the infamous
Odysseus!

I have had Epic the Musical on my mind lately, it just took me some time to decide what Pokemon to make Odysseus. I figured since he is a descendant of Hermes, his grandfather was canonically a shapeshifter, and he's known for being tricky and clever, kinda like a Fox...it made sense in my mind to make him a Zoroark.
Maybe his son Telemachus would be a Rockruff cause he's the "Little Wolf"

In the story of Homer's Odyssey, Odysseus and his crew go through several metric ton of utter bullshit between interference from the Gods and Monsters alike on what should have been a pretty quick journey. The actual distance between Troy and Ithaca is about 560 nautical miles. Ancient Boats of their time and make could travel about 4-6 knots depending on conditions, and having just left a war the soldiers were probably short on supplies, so they may have needed to stop on islands along the way to hunt and forage. Without any outside obstruction it probably would have taken at least a week or two, at most about a month. Instead he was lost at Sea for 10 years missing his wife and son, and in his absence being presumed dead the Nobles of Ithaca decided one of them should be the next king and tried to forcibly marry his wife and kill his son.

Historically, we know that the Trojan war was a real event that took place around 1200 BCE, towards the end of the Bronze age because we have found the ruins of Troy. Also around the end of the Bronze age we see reference from multiple civilizations including from Egypt about a group we know as "The Sea People" who appeared to be of the Aegean Tribes aka Greeks, and these Sea People were known to engage in a LOT of Piracy and attacks on coastal civilizations...so the real story that probably inspired the Odyssey was not so much soldiers getting lost at sea for 10 years, but decided to go on a Pirating tour of the Mediterranean...So Technically Odysseus is also a Pirate.
