Let's see:

Angelique - Scatterbug
Manon - either Skiddo or Fennekin or maybe even Furfrou (depends on how the Furfrou grooming is worked in)
Chantelle - one of two tough choices - Pancham or Amaura
Remy - Froakie (duh)
Yvette - Litleo
Byron - the second group of tough choices, except it's among all 4 (though Inkay could easily be weeded out)! Another Eevee? Yes please. Hawlucha or Goomy, yes please.
Jean - Noibat or Phantump

Hmmm...

Angelique: Hnnngh, so hard to decide between Chespin and Swirlix... ;A;
Manon: I'd actually pick Skiddo in this one.
Chantelle: I'd definitely pick Pancham here though Amaura IS tempting...
Wyatt: Hands down, Bunnelby.
Yvette: Ne-nene~! :3 Espurr would be pretty cool too.
Byron: I'd love a Goomy! I'm very picky about Dragon-types as well. XD
Jean: Helioptile, others don't really interest me that much. =x

ugh i hate forced writing and having to turn things in early and i'm afraid of commitment [/george mcfly] and locking myself into things I'm not sure I want to be locked into and UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

People Deadlines. What a bunch of bastards.

That stated ... it's done. -.- At least I wrote something, which I suppose is better than having written nothing at all. [/nanowrimo philosophy]

NOW TO SEE IF TESS PULLS A SUCKER PUNCH PLOT TWIST AND HAS MANKEY BITE CARBINK'S FACE. ^^;

Cyrus: @_@
Carbink: BIIIIIIIIIIIIIINK!
;.;
Jean: Oh la la!
X_x I did not expect zis to happen!
Celes: I KNEW IT!

Out of the choices that were available in each Friend Safari:
Angelique: Chespin, Scatterbug, Swirlix, Skrelp
Manon: Fennekin, Skiddo, Furfrou, Bergmite
Chantelle: Fletchling, Pancham, Flabébé, Amaura
Remy: Froakie, Honedge, Spritzee, Klefki
Wyatt: Bunnelby, Clauncher, Tyrunt, Pumpkaboo
Yvette: Litleo, Espurr, Binacle, Dedenne
Byron: Inkay, Sylveon (Eevee), Hawlucha, Goomy
Jean: Helioptile, Carbink, Phantump, Noibat
I would have gone for:
Angelique: Chespin. This would have been almost entirely because of my oft-stated intentions of having Cyrus be a Grass-type specialist. Chespin is lower on my must-have list than Snivy, probably about the same as Turtwig and Treecko, and is rather less than other Grass types. I wouldn't have been too thrilled with Angelique's selection but I would have felt privileged to be given the opportunity for a "free" Kalos starter.

Manon: Fennekin if I encountered a female Fennekin first, Skiddo if I encountered a male Fennekin first or else a Skiddo first. I wouldn't have wanted to toss away a Skiddo for a one-in-eight chance at a female Fennekin. But Fennekin is perhaps my favorite, most enjoyed starter experience ever -- I didn't let her evolve until like Level 36, she was just so cute! >.< -- and while I don't have plans for Cyrus to get one I, Talon, absolutely adore her so much I don't think I could part ways with her if I found one. Skiddo, on the other hand, I not only also love but I very much have plans for on Cyrus's team. Indeed, Mankey meeting Skiddo would have been the ideal character-building experience for what I had planned but I still like what I got and there are opportunities yet for Mankey to meet one.

Chantelle: Amaura. This would have probably been my worst selection. I'd probably have gone for an Amaura for the sake of the community rather than for myself. But that would have sucked. I have only ever had two captures, one of which did not fit into my plans at all (Mankey! ) and the other of which I traded away to someone who wanted it much more (Hippopotas). I wanted my Friend Safari capture to be personally meaningful, not more trade fodder. So yeah, Chantelle's zone would've sucked for me. :\ ^^;

Remy: Froakie or Spritzee. This is a tough one. I like Spritzee personally. And I think an Aromatisse would be fun to play in a similar vein to my plans for Jynx. But I'm not crazy about either stage and certainly don't have plans for one on Cyrus's team at the current time. Froakie, on the other hand, I have even less plans for. :\ But this would be another charity capture, similar to Amaura.

Wyatt: Tyrunt or Pumpkaboo. The latter most likely, as it represents a fairly big Grass want. But Tyrunt would be a consideration if I saw that someone really badly needed one. He's the fossil every child has dreamed of since RBY and god damn if fossils aren't hard to come by in FB. So I dunno. I think with these options, I'd probably have prioritized myself for a change and gone for Pumpkaboo. But maybe a 20% chance I'd have gone for the Ultra Rare instead.

Yvette: Espurr. This should be obvious to any who read my XY playthrough, Corinne's Adventure, or who read my post on XY014. Espurr represents one of those creatures where it doesn't make much sense for Cyrus to have one but F*** IT Talon wants an Espurr! I had wanted to save this as a surprise for when you guys saw me getting Psychic Mystery Eggs all the time now (until I get my Espurr. Then it's back to the Ice Glacier Eggs) but then I would've had to sit this reply out for three to nine more weeks before folks caught on. That's okay. Let's just let the cat out of the bag early this time. :p

Byron: This is a really tough one. I wanted a third Eevee initially so I could get a Sylveon, but I think that was a rare whim for me and it's since passed. The Eevee would have also had to be female. Inkay would have been a so-called "god-tier want" were it not for that beak that just plain ruins everything. Goomy isn't something I particularly care about but it could have also been what I went for. Really hard to say with this zone. I wouldn't call it a bad zone for me, just not an ideal zone either.

Jean: Carbink is pretty much the only one of Jean's four choices that I would actually want. Phantump is an example of a Grass type I just plain don't mind passing over. Noibat I'm not a big fan of. (We have enough bats, and a bat-dragon like Noivern doesn't really appeal to me either.) And Helioptile is not something I want either, although if his evolution had been Electric/Ground or plain Electric instead of being part Normal then it'd at least be on the list of creatures I personally like but don't have ownership plans for. So that leaves me with just Carbink. Fortunately, I do like Carbink. Not as much as some people! ^^; But I do think it's cute, and I really, really look forward to the possibility of Carbink ownership buying me a ticket to an adventure underground wherein we visit the Carbink kingdom, meet Princess Diancie, etc. I would like my Friend Safari capture to be directly personally meaningful, but another reason Carbink proved a nice pick was that I had / have the option of trading it to FB's #1 Carbink fan if I should ever change my mind, enabling her to enjoy the boasting rights of being the owner of FB's very first Carbink. I dunno. We'll see. I'd rather hold onto this Carbink myself (given the RP connection it's forging with Mankey) than trade it away: and this is why I have Carbink listed in my Cable Club Wishlist post even though it looks like I'm about to get one from the Friend Safari. Because I want to make sure that Yuki and I both have a Carbink.
Biggest want going into this event: Espurr

Best choice given RP considerations: Skiddo

Given those two verdicts, I guess that would mean that my ideal zones would have been Yvette's or Manon's. But I am happy with what I have received. Tess very much still has it when it comes to her updating abilities, Carbink's great, and I look forward to exploring the relationships between Mankey, Carbink, Celes, and others.

Since we have a few more captures, it's time to update the list again!

Captures By Trainer:
uhhhhh: Klefki
Electric Blue Eye: Scatterbug
Missingno. Master: Froakie
DaveTheFishGuy: Goomy
Shadowshocker: Binacle
Quilavaflare: Espurr
Ex-Admiral Insane: Swirlix
Escalion: Goomy
BlazeVA: Binacle
gmoyes: Honedge
swampertforever: Eevee
Pest: Tyrunt
MarbleZone: Fletchling
Arc_Angel: Honedge
empoleon dynamite: Skrelp
Gemini Spark: Froakie
seakittenyfool: Skrelp
myahoo: Phantump
Charminions: Fennekin
Lass El: Bergmite

By actual zones...

Chantelle's Zone: Only MZ is finished with his adventure, and the only other person that looks closest to finishing at this point is SBD.

Remy's Zone: All finished! (Captures: Klefki, Froakie, Honedge, Honedge, Froakie; Not captured: Spritzee)

Wyatt's Zone: Pest is done, and JJ doesn't look to be too far behind. Schala looks to be a little farther behind than JJ, but she might still be able to finish.

Angelique's Zone: All finished! (Captures: Scatterbug, Swirlix, Skrelp, Skrelp; Not captured: Chespin {pffff, wow })

Byron's Zone: Just Tess left to finish off this zone, I think she's at the point where she found the Pokemon she wants out of her zone (Goomy), and all she needs to do is figure out how to capture it.

Yvette's Zone: All finished! (Captures: Binacle, Espurr, Binacle; Not captured: Dedenne, Litleo)

Jean's Zone: Myahoo is finished, and it looks like the others are being given their chance at completing their captures, so it may be done soon...

Manon's Zone: Charm and Lass El still need to post to claim their captures, but after that it looks like Cyber and Okiku are pretty close to finishing themselves, with Stark still needing to reply to his latest update.

Arc is essentially done, Tess should be mostly finished after one more set of updates for her group, and Stark is about halfway done with his group. Keep going everyone, the end is in sight!
