Ok, so for this fic idea I decided to outline which characters (and side characters) would be certain kinds of benders. So here is my listing of what kind of bender each character is going to be in my particular story. I’ve seen a lot of different people’s takes on this, but this is what works best for me in the story.
Airbenders:
Hinata
Bokuto
Yachi
All of Kamomedai (if I decide to add them in later)
Waterbenders:
Suga
Kiyoko
Tsukishima
Akaashi
Rest of Fukurodani (When they pop up)
Earthbenders:
Iwaizumi
Daichi
Asahi
Tendo
Kyotani
Yaku
Watari
Ukai
All of Dateko (wall of Ba Sing Se)
All of Nohebi (Dai Li)
Firebenders:
Kageyama
Atsumu
Osamu
Oikawa
Kenma
Kuroo
Ushijima
Kunimi
Kindaichi

Rest of Nekoma (white lotus stand in)
Rest of Shiratorizawa (elite firebenders)
Non-benders:

Rest of Inarizaki (soldiers under Kita)
Krsn 2nd years (Non-bending warriors)
except Ennoshita, he’s with Daichi’s gang
This list is subject to change for both story reasons and sometimes I just feel like changing things. In any case, here it is. I’ll probably be posting some art soon, so that’ll be fun.
