Pidgin is a great multi-protocol client, but unfortunately it doesn't run on 
Android and iOS, therefore people that want to have a mobile alternative are 
limited to either Trillian or IM+.

IM+ is not in active development anymore and is allegedly less stable, so 
Trillian appears to be the client of choice (and is the one I use).

Despite Trillian's multi-protocol nature, it does have a native protocol and 
many just use it without being aware of its multi-protocol nature and being 
bothered to set up other accounts.  Besides, Trillian's Jabber support has a 
nasty habit of leaking information about your phone's ID if you don't 
explicitly specify the resource.

Therefore, my suggestion is to implement the Trillian native protocol in Pidgin 
(possibly as a plugin).

Trillian's native protocol is described here: https://www.trillian.im/impp/
