Pokemon: The Rise of Shadow | OOC

[RestlessComfort]

1. Welcome to the wonderful World of Pokemon!
   
   You and your group have finally done it! You fought your way through the 8 gym leaders of the Sinnoh region and gave it your best shot in the Pokemon League Tournament! Whether you did a great job and put up a good fight, or fell flat on your face after losing your first battle, the journey and people you met along the way will always hold a special place in your heart.
   
   With the satisfaction and pride of conquering Sinnoh fresh on your minds, you and your group decide to take a little time to yourselves and relax before deciding where to go next.
   
   Unfortunately, your R&R is cut short as you catch wind of a mysterious Pokemon festival taking place next week in the next region over: Unova
   
   It is said that the festival will have a great deal of food, games, and contests for every type of Pokemon lover. So whether your a trainer looking to compete in a tournament, or you just want to grab a bite to eat and meet some new people, this festival has something for everyone!
   
   Needless to say, It took little time for you and your group to decide to set off in search for this mysterious festival.
   
   As you and your group begin to gather their things, a feeling of danger and uneasiness settles over you -- almost as though you aren't meant to ever step foot into this new region. The feeling lasts for only a moment, then dissipates. You aren't sure, but whatever that feeling was, it wasn't gonna stop you from getting to the festival and moving on to conquer yet another region!

   Some Rules and Regualtions
   
   
   1. This is going to be a fun, yet serious Roleplay. That being said, it is very hard to continue a Roleplay when you have those who only post a couple sentences or only post once in a great while. Just stay active and post good, quality responses. Your responses don't have to be painfully long, but make them a decent length. A paragraph, 4-7 sentences long, is the minimum requirement
   
   2. Almost any Pokemon, from Gen V or before, is allowed. The only Pokemon that aren't allowed to be owned or used are Legendary, Mythical, and Mega-Evolved Pokemon.
   
   3. You are allowed to have the same Pokemon that someone else has, but make sure they differ in personality! Two identical Pokemon trained separately are boring. Make your Pokemon unique! They are characters too.
   
   4. You have the choice whether to walk with your Pokemon or keep them in their respective balls. I personally prefer to walk with my Pokemon, but that decision is yours!
   
   5. I want the Roleplayers to have some hand in the story design, but I make the final decisions, and I also have the last say.
   
   6. There will most likely be sexual content and mature language only fit for those that are 18 and older (hence this Roleplay being under libertine.) There are no restrictions on this. Just be mature and tasteful if you chose to take a post or encounter in that direction.
   
   7. This is a Roleplay that does have some ties to reality. You and your Pokemon are not superhuman or unbeatable. A Roleplay can get very boring, and sometimes frustrating, if there is someone who thinks they are a god and aren't able to be defeated. Obviously if your Charizard goes up against Mew 2, more times then not, your gonna get your ass kicked. Be sensible in the situations your presented with be and open to defeat. Sometimes, being beaten can add a really cool spin to a character or Roleplay as a whole.
   
   Everything else you already know, such as god-modding and all that. Hope you have fun and welcome to the Roleplay! :)​

[RestlessComfort]

Username:
RestlessComfort

Name:
Eric Hemsworth

Age:
19

Gender:
Male

Region you originated from:
Hoenn (Gen III)

Physical Traits:
Standing at 6ft 2in tall, 186 lbs, Eric can be considered tall for his age. He has dashing, ice-blue eyes with medium-length, platinum blonde hair. He is surprisingly toned for a trainer. Eric's arms, legs, and mid section are all very lean and muscular. He makes it a habit to work out with his Pokemon 5 days out of the week.​

Personality:
Eric likes to have fun; however, when he is around people he doesn't know, he hides this under his serious and tough exterior. He is very charming, kind, intelligent and loyal to his friends. He is also very crafty and sly when he needs to be. Overall, he is a nice guy who has a positive effect on people he's around and the Pokemon he comes into contact with. He shares a close and genuine relationship with each Pokemon he has. As for his battle strategy, many call him unconventional, but he is always effective.

Skills:
Eric is very likable. People and Pokemon alike fall in love with him after being around him for a short time. He shares an incredibly close bond with all of his Pokemon, keeping them on the same page, and making them a force to be reckoned with in battle. In addition, Eric is quick witted, cunning, and adaptable. Wherever he goes, regardless of the region or environment, he can adapt, survive, and overall thrive.

Short History:
As a young boy, Eric was often picked on and bullied by his peers. He had no friends growing up, which caused him to become introverted and independent. His mom was always busy with her career, and he lost his father and younger sister, at a young age, in a car accident. The only companionship he had was with the domesticated and wild Pokemon his mother worked with. His mother is a Pokemon Rehabilitator; helping heal the injured Pokemon brought to her. He loved being around every Pokemon she cared for, and for a long time, they were his only friends. Until -- one late, winter night. While completing his daily chores, a flash of blue, dashing through the trees, caught his attention. Eric's curiosity gripped him tight and forced him to investigate.​

He followed the figure half a mile through the trees until it came to a small valley. That's when Eric locked eyes with the creature guiding him. Piercing red eyes stared him down as its blue, dog-like body slowly backed away into the trees. In a matter of seconds, the mysterious Pokemon was gone, and Eric began to hear painful thrashings coming from an injured Riolu in the heart of the valley. Eric rushed to the Pokemon's side, and after his attempts to help failed, he gingerly picked the Riolu up and rushed him home to his mother. Eric's mom fixed the Pokemon up, and the Riolu has stuck by Eric's side ever since, even after it later evolved into a Lucario. Together they have taken down a grand total of 16 gyms, capturing different types of Pokemon along the way and collecting the various badges from beating each of the gym leaders. He hopes to take Unova by storm and, once again, gain entrance to the Pokemon league.


Pokemon:

Kyo
- Male Lucario
- Knows Hyper Beam, Dragon Pulse, Aura Sphere, and Shadow Ball.
- Kyo's fur is short and sleek, giving him an almost regal appearance. His fur is a lighter shade of blue then most of his kind, and he is quite a bit taller as well. The young Lucario is very wise and generally quiet unless there is something very important needing his attention. Kyo has been with Eric the longest out of all his Pokemon and shares a close, unbreakable bond with him. So close, in fact, that they can both speak to each other telepathically when needed.
- Walks along with Eric

Sei
- SHINY Male Zoroark
- Knows Shadow Claw, Flamethrower, Shadow Ball, and Giga Impact.
- Sei has very long, rough fur with a small face, making him look very devious. He appears angry and sullen most times, but he really isn't. Sei is actually quite a compassionate and kind creature, but it isn't uncommon for Sei to be misunderstood. Eric was the first person to ever see past his rough exterior and see his true character. That is why they have bonded as they have. Kyo is his best Pokemon friend thus far, the two having conversations about their surroundings very often.
- Walks along with Eric

Akio
- Male Pikachu
- Knows Thunderbolt, Bolt Tackle, Grass Knot, and Agility
- Akio and Eric must have been destined to meet each other. The two are exact copies of one another. They are both courageous, determined, and headstrong, yet reserved and kind hearted. Neither of them take things too seriously unless the situation calls for it. Both Pokemon and trainer are in tune with each other, knowing what the other will do way before they actually do it.
- Walks along with Eric or rides on his back

Akira
- Female Togekiss
- Knows Aura Sphere, Magical Leaf, Fire Blast, and Water Pulse
- Eric and Akira have been together ever since he found her as an abandoned egg back in Hoenn. Once he brought her home, Eric took on the responsibility of raising her. With Eric's love and care, she has long since hatched and reached her third and final evolution: Togekiss. Unlike many of Eric's other Pokemon, Akira is one of the sweetest and happiest Pokemon you will ever encounter. She is loyal, playful, and a joy to be around. Although she may not look it, Akira is extremely powerful when battling (given that she knows a move of every base type.) The young Togekiss feels like she owes Eric her life, bringing them close as Pokemon and Trainer.
- Half in half. Flies over Eric half of the time, stays in Pokeball half of the time. Depends on the situation.

Saber
- Female Mightyena
- Knows Iron Tail, Dark Pulse, Dig, and Crunch.
- Saber is a very elegant Pokemon and shows this with every movement she makes. She is very friendly and energetic towards anyone she meets. However, as sweet as she is, she has a dark side too. She can be very aggressive, unpredictable, and powerful when something crosses her or when she is doing battle.
- Usually in Pokeball. Some acceptions.

Ruri
- Female Absol
- Knows Night Slash, Razor Wind, Sucker Punch, and Perish Song
- Ruri is Eric's newest and most courageous Pokemon. They have quickly established a strong bond through their similar character traits and love of food. It doesn't matter if it's a level 1 Magikarp or a level 70 Red Gyrados, Ruri will stand tall and take it on with no hesitation, much like Eric would. Because of this, Ruri often endangers herself by picking fights where she is outmatched. Ruri is a tad bit bigger then most of her species, and far more strong and agile.
- Usually in Pokeball. Some acceptions.



Other:
Eric loves the night time and any precipitation that falls from the sky. During the night, he often goes stargazing with all of his Pokemon. It's a peaceful activity that helps him bond with each of his companions. The snow falling lightly to the ground, the tracks you leave behind as you walk, the soft pitter pat of water against the window, as you drift into slumber...it's something Eric has come to love and adore.

Character Catch Phrase
"When you can't be strong for yourself, I'll be strong for you."​

 

[Sir Salty]

So, here comes the million dollar question I have.

May I use a trainer I been using since Johto in all of my Pokemon games and continue the canon story?

My character is the son of Sabrina and Lt. Surge.

And yes, he is psychic.

[Lissamel]

Username:
Lissamel

Name:
Tallulah

Age:
17

Gender:
Female

Region you originated from:
Originally Kanto, moved to Johto, then Sinnoh

Physical Traits:
Tallulah is on the shorter side of the height spectrum and is often regarded as 'cute' because of it. Her hair, once a very light strawberry-blond, has rather recently been redyed a bright pink. She chooses to wear some rather bright and somewhat-gaudy clothing: Uneven striped socks, a multicolored skirt, blue fuzzy legwarmers, pink sneakers, and a green-and-yellow vest over a purple shirt. An obnoxious amount of jewelry is over this all, rings and necklaces and bracelets and hair clips and whatnot. While skinny, she's rather unfit and certainly not a muscular sort of lady.

Personality:
Tallulah has an innate lust for popularity. She wants to make sure everyone, everywhere knows her name...Or, at least, remembers her face. She can be rather superficial and even petty, strongly preferring style over substance, and more than willing to disregard anything (be it clothing, Pokemon, or even fellow people) if it doesn't quite fit her 'vision'. If you can't do it for the art, what are you doing it for, exactly? She's good-natured at heart, always raising her Pokemon with the utmost love and care (and maybe too many sweets), but can come off as bossy towards other people. Tallulah is ambitious, that's for certain. Despite all this, she's nothing if not extremely loyal. Once you fit into her initial vision or can otherwise prove yourself as appealing, that's when Tallulah is willing to simmer down and become more open. She may say it's for 'connections' and that it 'looks good on her record', but she loves all her friends to death and will defend them and go out of her way to help out if times look rough.

Unless they plan on borrowing her stuff. She's kinda clingy when it comes to her stuff. Get your own stuff, don't borrow her hair clips, she doesn't know if you'll ever give them back.

Skills:
She's good with people. By that we mean she has 'connections'. C'mon, don't act like a glitzy contest winner wouldn't! Getting into places with the higher-ups is a breeze for Tallulah, from expensive boutiques to the fanciest restaurants in Sinnoh.

She also has an absolutely unbreakable optimism, able to stick to her guns and ride any metaphorical wave, no matter how many obstacles are thrown at her. She's got goals and knows how and when to reach 'em.

History:
Tallulah lived slightly off the coast of Cerulean City, helping her parents run the local Daycare center. When she was small, she enjoyed spending lots of time with the funny Psyducks and Tangelas and Meowths that would stay a while at her parent's place. When they heard of the growing 'baby Pokemon' phenomena, though, Tallulah and family made their first major move off to Johto. It was there, among the Smoochums and Togepis, that Tallulah turned ten. Her parents gave her her first Pokemon--A tiny fish--As a gift, and said she was welcome to explore the region and do whatever her heart desired. The streets of Johto held many interesting sights to see, yet she always felt it was a little too...Safe. There has to be more than these quiet little towns where all you see are myths about a red Gyrados, and never a real one...

At the age of thirteen, new baby Pokemon were discovered, and her family moved once more to Sinnoh.

It was in Sinnoh Tallulah found her true passion: Contests.

Hearthome City was a bustling wonderland of colors and smells, and Tallulah bathed in every inch of it. She got a certain...Exhilaration from being up on the stage that she just couldn't get anywhere else. Dressing up. Dancing. Appealing! Due to her newfound pride and joy, she took it upon herself to have a fantastic set of Pokemon to help her climb the contest ranks, tailoring each one to a different category. Her outfits became garish-er, to help her stand out amongst the masses and make her just that much more photogenic. It's with this lust for fame that she even took interest in Unova, all the more eager to find whatever Pokemon dwell within the region and recruit them as part of her team. After all, only good things could come from this!

...

Wait, what do you mean there's no contest hall in Unova? ...Well, maybe she'll just get her new recruits and hoof it back to Sinnoh then.

Pokemon:

Oswald the Octillery
Male
Suction Cups
Constrict, Octazooka, Wring Out, Giga Impact
You know that one friend who is all super serious, no fun allowed? That's Oswald. Oswald was gifted to Tallulah when he was a mere Remoraid, destined to protect her from any wild threats that the world would throw at her--And he takes his job far too seriously. It's rare to see her without her Octillery on her shoulder, the water-type shooting other trainers dirty glares and seemingly threatening to shoot anyone he doesn't trust with ink. He's a giant softie for Poffins, though. Just toss him a Poffin and he'll mellow out for a while as he munches on it.

Norton the Porygon-Z
Genderless
Download
Lock-on, Embargo, Trick Room, Zen Headbutt
Don't touch Norton. Seriously. Norton isn't a fan of being touched, which leads to many struggles when Tallulah has to dress it up for contests. Since it's first recruitment from a gambler in the game corner, Norton has bounced between many, many owners--And because of this, demonstrates shaky loyalty to Tallulah herself, liking to float over and visit other trainers to study and analyze them. Although, Norton takes praise, like, super well. Call it a good ducky. It'll love you forever and constantly try to get more compliments out of you to boost it's own ego.

Freckles the Lopunny
Female
Cute Charm
Healing Wish, Ice Punch, Water Pulse, Round
Freckles is the main contest Pokemon, mostly because she loves the bright lights and glitz and glamour. Naturally, this makes Freckles and Tallulah the absolute best of friends; Tallulah often sharing secrets with the Lopunny that she trusts nobody else with. She's very cocky and sure of herself, not above teasing Pokemon larger, scarier, and possibly stronger than her. If she gets hurt--Well, they struck first, they should know better, hitting a lady like that--Unthinkable! Although, Freckles can be a little bit of a romantic sometimes...They don't call it cute charm for nothin', right? She'll play up her naturally adorable qualities and even plant a little kiss on anyone's cheek regardless of gender or lack thereof. Just...Don't expect her to stick around. She's not looking to settle down, silly.

Joy the Happiny
Female
Natural Cure
Charm, Copycat, Refresh, Sweet Kiss
Joy is a recent Pokemon of her's; a rejected egg from a trainer who was rather upset she wasn't shiny. Tallulah doesn't care--She likes this baby just the way she is. Joy is a natural coward, often having to be hugged tightly by Tallulah in order to calm down from her bouts of fear. Naturally empathetic (and a bit over-sensitive), Joy is eager to toddle up to anyone upset and patting them with her tiny hands in order to take the pain away. Also, she's a little bit of a crybaby, deathly afraid of being abandoned by her new family.

Other Information:
Tallulah is an utter pacifist. If she can avoid a fight, she will. Besides, her Pokemon's movesets are tailored to be contest-viable, not battle-ready.

Character Quote/Motto:
"New town means a new life--And new people to show just how amazing 'ole Tallulah can be!"

It's three AM what am I doing​​

 

[RestlessComfort]

@Clyde

Well, i dont see an issue if that is where he got his start, you could even sum up the canom story for your short history. Just as long as you understand this is a seperate and new story, not a direct continuation of canon. As for being psychic, thats ok, but dont go overboard with it. Keep it only for battles and use it sensibly :)

 

[RestlessComfort]

@LoveandHate91

Accepted!!

 

[RestlessComfort]

@Lissamel

Accepted! :)

 

[Crow]

Woah, that was faust. Better get my application in

Or two. First female, the other male.

I have this urge to ask Lissa if her character was based off a certain character I know, but then I realised that pink-hair-short-twintails combo is somewhat common.

"Kurenai, undefeated!"

Username:
Crow

Name:
Kurenai

Age:
14

Gender:
Female

Region you originated from:
Unova
(Lives in/near Chargestone Cave)

Physical Traits:
She is 1.5 metres tall

Personality:
Kurenai is a wild child, being wary of humans, since she has little exposure to them for quite some time now. However, she might warm up to you if you get to know her well enough.

Skills:
She gets around in the wilderness, and has skills associated with wilderness survival, since these skills are everyday things to her.

History:
When she was only 7, her original, unknown village was burned, taking most of its inhabitants with it. However, her parents' Blaziken and Aegislash were there to rescue her and her twin sister, Haku. Unfortunately, they parted due to the intensity of the fire, causing Blaziken and Kurenai to head towards the Chargestone Cave and Haku and Aegislash to head towards the Relic Castle...

Blaziken and Kurenai continued their lives in Chargestone Cave. Eventually, Kurenai outgrew her clothes, and thus, stopped wearing them altogether and started to live, as bare as a Pokemon and very much like a Pokemon.

Pokemon:

HagurumonKlink | Klink | N/A | Clear Body
Gear Grind | Zap Cannon | Lock-On | Shift Gear
Klink has no known physical differences between other Klink, apart from size, with each gear being as small as a Gamecube disc. Klink simply wants to be around Kurenai because she is bigger than he is.

Tynamo | Tynamo | Male | Levitate
Charge Beam | Spark | Tackle | Thunder Wave
The most level-headed of Kurenai's Pokemon, Tynamo tries to straighten out any conflicts.

Blaziken | Blaziken | Female | Speed Boost
Blaze Kick | Protect | Swords Dance | Brave Bird
Acting as a parent to Kurenai, Blaziken is rather protective of her.

Other Information:
She is a wild child living in the Chargestone Cave, and can be seen in the areas around it.
Due to the time spent with Pokemon, she understands Pokemon speech, and has little knowledge of human speech, limited to broken grammar.

"I'll show you how strong I am!"

Username:
Crow

Name:
Risk

Age:
15

Gender:
Male

Region you originated from:
Kanto

Physical Traits:
He is only 1.5 metres tall, and is pretty effeminate and slender.

Personality:
This little lady is rather cocky and arrogant, believing that he doesn't need help. He has only two reasons to do things - for himself and for his father. He admires his father and wants to be like him - a great Team Rocket Admin that operated in Underwater Missions. When I say he doesn't really care about anything else, I mean it, as he may often be seen putting too much pressure on his Pokemon while focusing on getting stronger. He may act rashly at times.
Ever since Team Rocket disbanded, he's simply been challenging himself towards greater heights. Picking on the weak, he believes that he is the strongest.

Skills:
He has great skill in aquatic combat.

History:
Risk's father, Aster, was a Team Rocket Member, an high-ranking one to be exact. Aster was stationed within various Underwater bases, his Grunts striking from the seas. Aster worked globally, travelling to various parts of the World for Operations. Aster often spoiled his child, giving him many things, and poaching Pokemon for him. However, Aster went missing one day, causing Risk to vow to be much like his father.
Ever since Team Rocket disbanded, Aster had switched to travelling across to poach and sell Pokemon at a high price.
Inheriting some of Aster's Pokemon that he had left behind - Barbaracle, Malamar and his father's signature Dragalge, Risk decided to become stronger by travelling to Unova in order to partake in the Leagues.

Pokemon:

Azumarill | Azumarill | Female | Huge Power
Aqua Jet | Play Rough | Aqua Ring | Substitute
Don't mess with Azumarill unless you want a beating. Trained by Risk from an Azurill, Azumarill is a formidable opponent. Few can outtank this defensive beast with her combination of Substitute and Aqua Ring.

Jolteon | Jolteon | Male | Volt Absorb
Discharge | Magnet Rise | Charge Beam | Signal Beam
It may be a Jolteon, but it swims like a Vaporeon in the skies with its signature Magnet Rise. As it is somewhat timid, it prefers far-range strikes.

Dragalge | Dragalge | Female | Adaptability
Dragon Tail | Draco Meteor | Toxic Spikes | Venoshock
A ferocious beast who tortures opponents first before striking. It gained Draco Meteor from its time with Aster. One can tell that Draco Meteor was not forged from the bond with Risk, since Risk sees Pokemon as weapons. She misses her time with Aster.

Malamar | Malamar | Female | Contrary
Superpower | Night Slash | Topsy-Turvy | Hypnosis
Malamar enjoys a little prank once in a while. Disliking Risk's daddy issues, she is a little rebellious, but will follow orders if it means having fun. She misses her time with Aster.

Barbaracle | Barbaracle | Male | Tough Claws
Razor Shell | Night Slash | Stone Edge | Shell Smash
While seemingly slow, Barbaracle is Risk's main speed demon. He misses his time with Aster, but he takes a liking to Risk's cold mannerisms.

Other Information:
Unknown.​

Yeah. Plus I'm typing from my iPad because my phone's charging and all, so it's somewhat hard to add pictures.

 

[Crow]

Also, are we allowed to have a different story from the one stated up there. Like, maybe my character has not partaken in any leagues.

 

[RestlessComfort]

Also, are we allowed to have a different story from the one stated up there. Like, maybe my character has not partaken in any leagues.

Yes! Absolutely! The base story was that the group went on the adventure through the gyms so that those trainers who battle (me and LoveandHate92) could get into the league, but you didnt have to participate in it! Or you could have met us after! Or if you aren't a gym battler, but instead a pokemon contest participant (like lissamel) its poasible we took side quests so that she could try to win the various contests in the region! Have whatever story you would like

"The less you have, the less you have to lose"

Username: R E I

Rachel "Rae" Elizabeth | 18 | ♀ | Kanto

Physical Traits:

Rae's a dainty thing (5'9, 117 lbs), long legged, tiny torso, swan neck and delicate wrists. Complexion a shade of porcelain, though dotted with the occasional brown freckle. Her oblong face has a feminine structure, gently carved jawline, easily flushed high cheek bones, rose colored (medium sized) lips, flawless nose and, most noteworthy, are her doe like, chocolate irises framed with thick, black lashes. Her warm brown (golden highlighted) locks are ayered, cascading to her shoulder blades, with a healthy shine though extremely fine. She doesn't care much for fashion, typically pulling her hair back half heartedly, baring minimal make up and slipping on a hoodie for the sake of comfort; no piercings, tattoos, etc.

Personality:

An idle Rae is never a good thing, she's difficult to entertain, and always multitasking - she'll have five or six things going on at once (I.e. Conversing, texting, writing, training and eating) though she is not hyper, in fact she's a rather stoic individual, only animated when she's passionate. She's a high maintenance female, with major expectations and a melancholic disposition from disappointment regarding others who fail to meet those needs. Her sense of humor is present, just sardonic and usually harsh; Rae is in fact a sweetheart, but maintains a bit of an indifferent exterior until she let's you in.

She's generous, but more so detached from most everything; few materialistic needs, and prefers to own just what she needs along with the occasional luxury. Very opinionated, though she (usually) times it right; easily discouraged, quick to persuade, impressive intellectual. Occasionally bratty though there's a charm to it, oh so tenacious.

Skills:

Improvisation/Adaptibilty - Rae's always winging it. She can adapt to just about any change of scenery (though she whines under extreme temperatures) and can (usually) change her approach last minute to better suit circumstances. She does not however adjust to changes of pace, her attitude is more lax, schedules and timed scenarios completely throw her off.

Intuitive/Tactful - Both of which are what she devotes impressive time to improving, and are her greatest assets on the battlefield.

Leadership Skills - Can take over if she has to, usually prefers not to have responsibility though; she she takes charge, that means her patience has been worn out.

History:

Born to a freelance artist and con man with a disappearing act, Rae's childhood was far from flawless. Low class living, plenty of tension with relatives, and harsh judgments socially kept her rather isolated, she was left with art, animal companions, and her love for English, all meant to keep her from feeling too socially astranged. Though capable of being at the top of her class (extremely literate) discouragement inevitably led her to drop out, losing her chances at academy enrollment and instead spending her time living like a gypsy with her mother (and later, younger sister), traveling without family, trying to make a living and find their place in the word without guidance.

Strays were her closest friends, nature itself her playground, whilst she gradually pushed people into a "be cordial, and get this social gathering over with!" category. Not to say she can't communicate, in fact she picked her mothers lessons from charm school and finds socializing an easy, if not forced, engagement. She's unused to stability, proper planning or long term relationships, Rae's kind of a social ghost, floating through events and prone to disappear once she's lost interest. It was a while before she joined up with the group, she's a little attached surprisingly, though only challenged/defeated every gym shed come across, Rae has no interest the league, she has more interest in Frontier Brains.

Hisagi
Greninja
♂
Protean
Water Shuriken, Extrasensory, Night Slash, Blizzard

The only egg Rae's ever hatched, a gift to her mother as payment for an exclusive booth/display in a Nimbasa art gathering. Having been carried around with Rae everywhere, he has a strong emotional attachment. Never lingers, reclusive, immensely intelligent, unconventionally tactful, always thinking ahead. Watches over Rae cause her mom entrusted him with that task.
Species differences - "Shiny", 5"4, insync with his trainer.

Lottie
Sylveon
♀
Abilities
Calm Mind, Moonblast, Toxic, Psychic

Lottie has been linked at the hip with her trainer since her rescue, six months ago. Along many other animals, she was part of an illegal shipment to lure in customers at the Veilstone Game Corner (as an eevee). She was on display for all to admire, her obvious malnourishment and neglect unacknowledged. Rae's mom decided to stop by and play the slots, yet upon seeing a load of cages dragged in - each holding captive, rare, and miserable animals - Rae and her mother caused a scene, heavily rebelled and ended up in court, where her persuasive, empathetic testimony (fueled by many, many essays and blogs surrounding the issue) won the release of the animals (they were given to Sinnoh's largest adoption agency, Rae got to pick one as a pet and kept a little starved eevee.) She's a sweet little thing, still young, newly evolved and not Rae's first battle choice. Has a tendency to wander, groomed to perfection, and always steals Rae's food.

Cherche
Flygon
♀
Levitate
Dragon Rush, Steel Wing, Earth Power, Flamethrower
Cherche is one with the wind, having spent so much time in the air with her trainer, her flying techniques/speed are comparable to Skyla/Falkner's birds, though she's all about loops and sudden drops, not the most graceful flier. A bit of a show off, always ready for a race, typically soars from a distance as Rae's escape plan.
Species differences - Fastest of it's colony, greater than average sized.

Cayde
Alakazam
♂
Abilities
Psyshock, recover, energy ball, dazzling gleam
Studious and reclusive, he's an intellect of a different sort, more human like than an animal should be, extremely observant and aware. He's picked up a lot of from his trainer, and has immense interest in their deep connection made obvious the moment she acquired him (was traded with a young girl for Rae's Gothorita).
Species differences - Immense intellect, typically wear or carries gemstones instead of spoons.

Well, i dont see an issue if that is where he got his start, you could even sum up the canom story for your short history. Just as long as you understand this is a seperate and new story, not a direct continuation of canon. As for being psychic, thats ok, but dont go overboard with it. Keep it only for battles and use it sensibly :)

Fantastic. And will do.
