!!ZEL/[[spoiler:Zero, Evelynn Seijaya, Lumina Seijaya]]
[[quoteright:256:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vstrainer95.png]]
A high-ranking Team Meteor agent.

* TheWomanBehindTheMan: She turns out to be the real leader of Team Meteor, and even Solaris answers to her.

* VillainousFriendship: [[spoiler:With Elias. They know each other from when the latter was blind, with El serving as a servant to him due to the legacies of both their families. This friendship was cemented further when it was partially thanks to Solaris giving El the Emerald Key that gave El his sight. They haven't interacted on-screen yet, however.]]

* MysteriousPast: It’s implied that she may have been a child at the Orphanage years ago even younger than Anna, and that she fell into the area under Reborn/was thrown down there by Connal, where Arceus’s meteor was enshrined, and was somehow made older by the energy radiating from it, or just aged via TheSlowPath and came out only a while later thanks to the fluid nature of time in the surrounding area. However, Lin herself has yet to comment on her past.

The first PULSE Pokemon, which [[spoiler:was responsible for turning Zero, Eve, and Lumina from three separate people into three souls inhabiting a single body. Located in a Team Meteor base in Reborn City.]]

* GoneHorriblyRight: [[spoiler: Luminia's]] journal reveals that the first PULSE machine was designed by [[spoiler: Evelyn]] to amplify the healing powers of a pokemon [[spoiler:in hope of helping her sister's genetic illness]]. Then Team Meteor caught wind of the invention and figured it could be used to enhance the power of all kinds of Pokémon. [[spoiler:Magneton fell into the PULSE as it started evolving, and it led to the creation of ZEL.]]

* PoisonousPerson: All three Tangrowth gained a secondary Poison typing thanks to the PULSE.

* TeleportersAndTransporters: An ''extremely'' powerful version thereof, who doesn't have to be anywhere close to the stuff it's teleporting, or go to the target destination itself. If only

* TheUnfought: Has yet to be fought as of Episode 18.

* TheUnfought: Has yet to be fought as of Episode 18.

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: They typically only address each other by their codenames, at least when you're talking to them.

* DeaderThanDead: [[spoiler: Eclipse, whose soul is destroyed by Sirius's Chandelure.]]

-->''"Cool story, bro."''

* {{Foil}}: [[spoiler:To Luna. Both are very different from their parents, but whereas Taka loves his father Solaris and remains loyal to Team Meteor and his bloodline despite hating what they are doing, Luna ran away from her father Elias (also part of Team Meteor), and makes it clear that she doesn’t view him as her father and wants nothing to do with him. They also were friends as children, as it turns out, though we have yet to see them interact onscreen.]]

The true leader of Team Meteor, who usurped control from Solaris before the beginning of the game.

!!Taka Alcantara

!!Sirius

!!Solaris

!!Lin

* SignatureMon: Walrein.

* StrawNihilist: SA lot of her monologues resemble this trope. Especially the one given by her void-self.

A PULSE that was developed in tandem with the PULSE Clawlitzer, which was also deployed in Calcenon City, and is currently deploying a barrier that has so far kept anyone from assaulting Team Meteor's position.

[[folder:8:Hypno]]

[[folder:PULSE Clawitzer]]

[[folder:PULSE Mr. Mime]]

* [[spoiler:AlasPoorVillain: Eclipse’s last moments were spent turning off the PULSE Clawlitzer bombarding Calcenon to save her father, deciding she was done with Team Meteor, and starting to tell you about Lin… up until Sirius has his Chandelure kill her.]]

* SignatureMon: Chatot and Cradily.

[[folder:PULSE Clawlitzer]]

The main antagonist force/evil team of the game, who have initially unclear goals, but who appear to be determined to keep anyone else from coming to the Reborn Region, and driving anyone who already lives there out.

* TookALevelInJerkass: [[spoiler:They were initially only trying to get people to leave Reborn when Solaris was in charge - after Lin took over, they escalated to full-on terrorism]].

* PunchClockVillain: It's pretty clear that the only reason he's an antagonist is because he works for Team Meteor [[spoiler:due to his father Solaris]] - beyond that, he's probably one of the most pleasant characters in the story.

The true leader of Team Meteor.

* BadBoss: In her first ingame appearance, ZEL and Sirius decide they’d rather pretend you’re a new recruit and let you go free afterwards than let Lin find out how much you’ve interfered with their plans, despite otherwise having you outnumbered four to one (Lin, Dr. Sigmund, ZEL, and Sirius: all bosses in their own right…), stating that she'll rip you all apart otherwise.

* DarkIsEvil: Her sole known Pokemon is an incredibly powerful Hydreigon.

* TheDreaded: Pretty much everyone, including Sirius, speaks of her with absolute fear. It seems likely that the only reason that Solaris isn't still in charge is because Lin potentially overpowered him.]
* GenreBlind: Lin leaves you, Victoria, Arclight, and Adrienn all alive when she had you trapped and directly in her power, when all four of your Pokemon teams are all likely approaching or in the 80s by that point. Though she was savvy enough at least to kill Ame, it’s still rather foolish overall. However, considering her belief that nothing matters except raw power (and how she was able to defeat Ame, the current Champion who is even tougher than the other four of you), this is somewhat in character.

* MightyGlacier: It has maxed-out Defense and Special Defense, and respectable Attack, but it's explicitly stated that it can't even ''move'' - part of Avalugg's body is fused with the PULSE itself.

[[folder:Lin '''(SPOILERS)''']]]]

* BadBoss[: In her first ingame appearance, ZEL and Sirius decide they’d rather pretend you’re a new recruit and let you go free afterwards than let Lin find out how much you’ve interfered with their plans, despite otherwise having you outnumbered four to one (Lin, Dr. Sigmund, ZEL, and Sirius: all bosses in their own right…), stating that she'll rip you all apart otherwise.
* BigBad: Apart from being the true leader of Team Meteor after she took over from Solaris, in episode 16, she cements herself as this by forcing a FightingYourFriend scenario on you, Adrien, Victoria, and Arclight, as well as having her Hydreigon murder Ame, the Reborn League champion and the closest thing the game has to a BigGood.]

* TheDreaded: [Pretty much everyone, including Sirius, speaks of her with absolute fear. It seems likely that the only reason that Solaris isn't still in charge is because Lin potentially overpowered him.]

* HateSink: If her murderous, sociopathic, and completely evil actions and personality didn’t make her this already she definitely fitted this trope when she murdered Ame.

* HiddenAgendaVillain: Her goals have yet to be even hinted at, but involve Arceus in some way.
* InvincibleVillain: Eighteen episodes in, and the good guys never even managed to as much as ''annoy'' her.

* MysteriousPast:[[spoiler: It’s implied that she may have been a child at the Orphanage years ago even younger than Anna, and that she fell into the area under Reborn/was thrown down there by Connal, where Arceus’s meteor was enshrined, and was somehow made older by the energy radiating from it.]]

* :TheSociopath: If she really is the same girl that tormented Laura at the Orphanage, she’s likely this. Even if it isn't her, her actions aren’t exactly supporting her not being this.
-->[[spoiler:'''Lin:''' (to you and DJ Arclight) "You are pigs to be herded. You are pigs to be hurt. Sputter, scamper, and squeal."]]
* {{Sleepyhead}}: According to Taka, she has narcolepsy and is often found randomly asleep. It's not been seen in-game, though.

%%* WalkingSpoiler

* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: Some PULSE Pokémon are enormous, examples including [[spoiler: Swalot and Avalugg]].

* FantasticNuke: The more offensively-oriented PULSE Pokémon become this. One of such Pokémon revealed is a [[spoiler: PULSE Clawitzer]], which is to serve as a massive artillery device.

* SmallRoleBigImpact: The Pokémon themselves have little screentime outside of their battles and cutscenes, but almost all of Team Meteor's major exploits and missions hinge on the use of one or more PULSE Pokémon. The virulant plant growth in Reborn City and hefty pollution of its waters, for example, are entirely caused by the 3 PULSE Tangrowths and [[spoiler:the PULSE Swalot]].

A PULSE created by Team Meteor in Tanzan Mountain, [[spoiler:which is responsible for all the teleportation mishaps in the nearby area]].

A PULSE closer to a weapon of war than any of the previous PULSEs, which was deployed in Calcenon City to lay siege to the lower section of the area.

[[folder:Arc-PULSE '''(SPOILERS)''']]]]
A PULSE designed to be used on Arceus, specifically the Meteor of Arceus that was sealed below Reborn City long ago.]

[[folder:[[spoiler:Lin]]]]

* BadassBoast: [[spoiler:Her response to a super-sized Steelix and the Dragon Gym Leader of Reborn trashing her base?]]
-->[[spoiler:'''Lin''': Size doesn't necessarily equal strength. I'll deal with this.]]
* BadBoss[=/=]YouHaveFailedMe: [[spoiler:In her first ingame appearance, ZEL and Sirius decide they’d rather pretend you’re a new recruit and let you go free afterwards than let Lin find out how much you’ve interfered with their plans, despite otherwise having you outnumbered four to one (Lin, Dr. Sigmund, ZEL, and Sirius: all bosses in their own right…), stating that she'll rip you all apart otherwise.]]
* BigBad: [[spoiler: Oh, ''God'' yeah. Apart from being the true leader of Team Meteor after she took over from Solaris, in episode 16, she cements herself as this by forcing a FightingYourFriend scenario on you, Adrien, Victoria, and Arclight, as well as having her Hydreigon murder Ame, the Reborn League champion and the closest thing the game has to a BigGood.]]
* TheCorrupter: [[spoiler: To Team Meteor. According to Eclipse, they went from greyish to full-on evil once Lin started getting into positions of power.]]
* DarkIsEvil: [[spoiler:Her sole known Pokemon is an incredibly powerful Hydreigon.]]

* DragonAscendant: [[spoiler: Apparently, she started out as a lower-level Team Meteor member, and eventually made her way to the top, usurping control from Solaris.]]
* TheDreaded: [[spoiler: Pretty much everyone, including Sirius, speaks of her with absolute fear. It seems likely that the only reason that Solaris isn't still in charge is because Lin potentially overpowered him.]]
* GenreBlind: [[spoiler:Lin leaves you, Victoria, Arclight, and Adrienn all alive when she had you trapped and directly in her power, when all four of your Pokemon teams are all likely approaching or in the 80s by that point. Though she was savvy enough at least to kill Ame, it’s still rather foolish overall.

* HateSink: [[spoiler:If her murderous, sociopathic, and completely evil actions and personality didn’t make her this already she definitely fitted this trope when she murdered Ame]]
* HaveWeMet: [[spoiler:Several characters from the orphanage seem to "know" her, they just can't put their finger on it.]]
* HiddenAgendaVillain: [[spoiler:Her goals have yet to be even hinted at, but involve Arceus in some way.]]
* InvincibleVillain: [[spoiler:Eighteen episodes in, and the good guys never even managed to as much as ''annoy'' her.]]
* {{Invisibility}}: [[spoiler:Anna wasn't able to see her on her Hydreigon's back. Considering Anna seems to be able to see the "spirits" of other people in some way...]]
* [[spoiler: KickTheDog: In Episode 16, Lin forces you, Arclight, Adrienn and Victoria to fight each other, and whoever loses suffers a “penalty”. These “penalties” included Arclight having an eye ripped out, Adrienn being trapped in a cage with a superheated floor, and Victoria having to undergo electroshock torture. All three survived… but the same can’t be said for Ame, who Lin directly ordered her Hydreigon to kill.]]
* MadeOfIron: [[spoiler:Survived multiple slashes from an Aegislash as well as having it plunged directly through her body. She woke up unscathed immediately after. It turns out this could be literal, as Samson punched her head-on when he encountered her in Agate, and says he's dented ''steel'' softer than Lin.]]
* MeaningfulName: [[spoiler:Her name backwards is [[StrawNihilist Nil]]]]

* NothingIsScarier: [[spoiler:It's never been totally explained just ''where'' she came from or got her powers, and she's not talking herself]].
* {{Sadist}}: [[spoiler:She forces the player, Victoria, Arclight and Adrienn to fight each other, the losers being physically punished by being burned (Adrienn, who refused to play along), shocked (Victoria) and having an eye torn out (Arclight). And if she was the girl from the Orphanage, she would apparently find out the fears of other children there and use that knowledge to torment them (such as breaking one of Laura's things whenever she had 8 so that she only had 7; Laura has what appears to be a form of OCD, with her favorite number being 8, and a hatred of odd numbers).]]
* :TheSociopath: [[spoilerIf she really is the same girl that tormented Laura at the Orphanage, she’s likely this. Even if it isn’t her, her actions aren’t exactly supporting her not being this.]]

* StrawNihilist: [[spoiler:SA lot of her monologues resemble this trope. Especially the one given by her void-self]].
--> [[spoiler:How funny. You thought you were strong together. And here you are now. Let this be a lesson. Numbers do not help. Friends do not help. Nothing ever helps. No one ever helps. No one ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever helps.]]
* [[spoiler:SuperNotDrowningSkills: She walks underwater by herself, without a Pokemon using Dive (and possibly without a rebreather), drags out a statue that's probably several hundred pounds, and never appears to surface for several minutes]].
* TheWomanBehindTheMan: [[spoiler:She turns out to be the real leader of Team Meteor, and even Solaris answers to her.]]
* WalkingSpoiler
* WorldsBestWarrior: [[spoiler:She defeated Ame, the Champion of Reborn, (in a fight that was entirely offscreen), before killing her. Earlier in the story, her Hydreigon was able to deliver an apparent CurbstompBattle to a supersized Lv 75 Steelix and Saphira. In addition to her powerful Pokemon, she herself can deflect an direct Aegislash blade from Titania with her bare hands, and walked off a hit from Samson without any issues.]]

[[folder:[[spoiler:Arc-PULSE]]]]
[[spoiler:A PULSE designed to be used on Arceus, specifically the Meteor of Arceus that was sealed below Reborn City long ago.]]
* HijackingCthulhu: [[spoiler: According to Evelyn, Team Meteor aims to eventually create a PULSE machine capable of holding ''Arceus'', which would essentially allow them to enslave a PhysicalGod and wield its even further amplified power.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler:Team Meteor's end-goal - or at least, Lin's end-goal - is to use the Arc-PULSE to pull off a case of HijackingCthulhu.]]

!!Team Meteor

[[folder:ZEL]]
!!ZEL/[[spoiler:Zero, Evelynn Seijaya, Lumina Seijaya]]
A high-ranking Team Meteor agent.

* AchillesHeel: [[spoiler: The PULSE machine containing the Magnezone that forced them to combine. When they lose to you in episode 16 and the machine is dismantled, Zero is restored to his own self and Eve and Lumi are gone.]]
* AlasPoorVillain:[[spoiler: Eve’s last words to Lumi after your E16 fight with them is that she “Will always, always, love you.” Then, the Magnezone which allowed Lumi and Eve’s personalities to exist in Zero’s body vanishes, and so do they. Zero, the body’s original personality, descends into a MadnessMantra before he runs off to Agate City. No matter how loyal the three were to Team Meteor, it’s just sad to watch Zero break down as he realizes his companions are both gone, possibly forever.]]
-->[[spoiler:'''Zero''': I’m alone. I’m alone. I’m alone. I’m alone. I’m alone. And I'm... empty.]]
* AmbiguouslyBrown: [[spoiler:While Zero is clearly white-skinned, Eve and Lumi's original bodies are both almost as dark-skinned as Arclight]].
* AmbiguousGender: ZEL themselves, but even their individual personalities don't have explicit genders (at first). [[spoiler: This may in part be because ZEL was originally 3 separate people, two of which were female and the last of which was a (male) Team Meteor agent overseeing the creation of the first PULSE.]]
* TheBusCameBack: [[spoiler:Eve and Lumi's bodies were taken care of by Team Meteor, so when the PULSE Magnezone was destroyed, they wound up back in their own bodies. As of Episode 18, they're both alive, free and wholly on the player's side.]]
* CastingAShadow: Their Umbreon, representative of (and commanded by) Zero.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[spoiler:Whether because he's unsure what to do anymore or because of lingering mental effects from the destruction of Magnezone, it's pretty clear that Zero's broken up due to Eve and Lumi's seeming deaths]].
* EvilGenius: Eve was responsible for the creation of the PULSE.
* FreudianTrio: Zero is the Id, Lumi the Superego, and Eve the Ego. Bonus points for their being three personalities in one body. [[spoiler: Even more bonus points for originally being three people who merged into one body]]
* FusionDance: [[spoiler:Originally three separate people who were merged when the PULSE prototype was first activated.]]
* IllGirl: [[spoiler: Lumi, who was sick with a genetic disease that also killed her and Eve's parents.]]
* JerkAss: Zero, and to a lesser extent, Eve.
* AnIcePerson: They use a Glaceon, which represents (and is controlled by) Lumi.
* [[NiceGuy Nice Person]]: Lumi is meek, friendly, and in general seems at odds with the machinations of Team Meteor.
* PsychicPowers: Espeon, in reference to (and commanded by) Eve.
* SanitySlippage: After [[spoiler:Eve and Lumi vanish in Episode 16, Zero starts losing it, to say the least. By Episode 18, he's completely lost it.]]
* SplitPersonality: They have three -- Zero, Eve, and Lumi. Which one is active and speaking is designated by which letter in their name is capitalized. [[spoiler: Each of the personalities was originally a separate person.]]
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler: Eve. Her efforts to heal her sister brought the PULSE machines to life.]]
* WrenchWench: [[spoiler: Eve, or rather Evelynn, who built the first PULSE machines to try to cure Lumi's/Lumina's disease.]]

[[folder:Taka Alcantara]]
!!Taka Alcantara
An oddly-friendly Team Meteor Admin.

* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler:It's heavily implied he's the one who rescues you from the Nuzleaf cage. If alive, he also turns against Team Meteor during the battle for Agate City.]]
* [[spoiler: TheDutifulSon: Apparently the main reason he's part of Team Meteor is because he's Solaris' son.]]
* {{Foil}}: [[spoiler:To Luna. Both are very different from their parents, but whereas Taka loves his father Solaris and remains loyal to Team Meteor and his bloodline despite hating what they are doing, Luna ran away from her father Elias (also part of Team Meteor), and makes it clear that she doesn’t view him as her father and wants nothing to do with him. They also were friends as children, as it turns out, though we have yet to see them interact onscreen.]]
* FriendlyEnemy: He usually chats casually with the player before attacking them, and gladly hands out information on Meteor's current plan.
* GracefulLoser: He's always seen taking his defeats at your hands in stride.
* MrFanservice: Given that he resembles [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Morty]], it's inevitable.
* NobleDemon: [[spoiler:If he wasn’t Solaris’s son, it’s doubtful there would be much tying him to Team Meteor at all. He later states that the only reason he’s a part of Team Meteor is due to ResignationsNotAccepted preventing him from leaving and his love for his father, and that he doesn't really agree with what they're doing.]]
* NoodleIncident: He and Luna were friends as children. In Episode 17, his dialogue says that he did something that made Luna as delusional as she is.
* PunchClockVillain: It's pretty clear that the only reason he's an antagonist is because he works for Team Meteor [[spoiler:due to his father Solaris]] - beyond that, he's probably one of the most pleasant characters in the story.
* RhetoricalQuestionBlunder: [[spoiler:When he asks Titania if she has any idea what his father Solaris would do and how he would feel if Taka left Team Meteor. Titania counters that Solaris would probably still feel better than the countless people Team Meteor has hurt.]]
* SacrificialLion: [[spoiler:If you don't fight him in the Water Treatment Center, then he joins you for most of Episode 17 and gets plenty of CharacterDevelopment... only for [[BigBad Lin]] to kidnap him and trick Titania into killing him.]]
* ScarfOfAsskicking: He carries a scarf everywhere (It's even in his trainer and VS sprites), and is a Team Meteor Admin.
* SignatureMon: Chatot and Cradily.
* SingleLineOfDescent: [[spoiler:He and his father are apparently the last direct descendants of the family that enshrined Arceus’s Meteor.]]
* TokenGoodTeammate: Gives off this impression for the Meteor admins. After being defeated, he regularly directs you to where Meteor's plot is going on.

[[folder:Sirius]]
!!Sirius
A high-ranking Team Meteor member.

* BadBoss: Sirius' treatment of his underlings is truly abysmal. [[spoiler:Eclipse learned that [[YouHaveFailedMe the hard way]].]]
* EyeScream: [[spoiler: Got his left eye taken out by Corey.]]
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: [[spoiler:When Lin turns up at the Tanzan base with you still there, he decides to just let you go after she leaves.]]
* MysteriousPast: Alluded to over the course of the game - he knows Anna and Noel's father [[spoiler: AKA Radomus]], and has gone to great lengths to obtain the Keys.
* PetTheDog: When [[spoiler: Lin turns up at the Tanzan mountain base, Sirius gets the player to pretend they're a Meteor recruit so Lin won't kill all of them and you. Then, once Lin has left, Sirius tells the player this is their only chance to get out alive.]] Of course, he could have done that [[PragmaticVillainy just to save his own skin]].
* SignatureMon: Chandelure and Seviper.
* WouldHitAGirl: To lethal extents. [[spoiler:He killed Eclipse, was directly responsible for the death of Heather's mother when he poisoned her IV bag when Heather was born to get the Ruby Ring, and had his Chandelure burn down the former house of Charlotte, Laura, and Saphira to get the Sapphire Bracelets, which Charlotte still thinks she was responsible for]].
* WrittenByTheWinners: [[spoiler:His void-self states this belief in Episode 18, that he's "written too much already", and that reality accepts nothing less than "full commitment and sacrifice". And that with all he's done, there was only "one choice". He even gives Solaris a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech in the Reshiram route about how he's the only one in Team Meteor now who cares about the "old world" instead of the new one]].
* YouHaveFailedMe: A firm believer in this trope.

[[folder:Solaris]]
!!Solaris
The boss of Team Meteor, who even the Admins answer to. [[spoiler:At least, he was the boss originally]].

[[folder:Simon and Tara]]
!! Simon and Tara
A pair of Meteor Grunts.

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: [[spoiler:Simon turns out to have fallen in love with Tara after he met her. Her death made her returning his love impossible.]]
* AscendedExtra: The pair start out as simply two mooks Charlotte befriends after she's [[spoiler: captured by Team Meteor.]] Eventually, [[spoiler: Tara's death at the hands of Saphira leads to a subplot you can follow involving Simon and why he joined Team Meteor.]]
* TheAtoner: [[spoiler: Zig-zagged with Simon after he quits Team Meteor. He doesn't want to cause any more trouble on one hand and regrets what he did while working for them, but, out of loyalty for his friends in the organization, he won't reveal any of their secrets or help you further as of Episode 13.]]
* DeathSeeker: Simon's dialogue in Episode 18 [[spoiler:implies that he wants Saphira to kill him too.]]
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Tara.]]
* OneDegreeOfSeparation: [[spoiler:As it turns out, they both have the same last name; Copperfield. While it's possible they were family and didn't realize it... it's also unlikely that they would be able to work with each other for several months in-universe (not counting how long they were Team Meteor agents before the story began with your arrival) and not eventually recognize each other/realize they were related). Simon is still rather freaked out by this, though.]]
* RedShirt: [[spoiler: Deconstructed. They're both essentially this, but Simon's backstory and depression, and even acknowledgement that Saphira has a family that would grieve if he killed her, humanizes all of Team Meteor and its grunts by proxy beyond the standard disposable mooks.]]
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[spoiler: Averted. Simon realizes that killing Saphira will do nothing but cause more grief, and decides to just leave Team Meteor, and the whole fight between them and Reborn, behind.]]
* [[spoiler:SecondLove: Tara was this to Simon.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: They're actually not that important to the overall story, but pretty much any tropes relating to them spoils the role they serve.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler: Tara.]]

[[folder:Blake Whitaker]]
!!Blake Whitaker
Heather's guardian, Cal's brother and a member of Team Meteor.
-->''"Cool story, bro."''
----
* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler: After adopting Heather, he certainly acts like this to her. As it turns out, his and Cal's father apparently used to make them stay outside in the snow and wouldn’t let them in until he decided they could come in.]]
* AdaptationalVillainy: He was apparently a lot more pleasant in the online League than he is in Reborn.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: He shamelessly rubs his superiority in [[spoiler:his brother Cal]]'s face.
* AnIcePerson: Uses a lot of Ice-type Pokemon.
* CainAndAbel: The Cain to [[spoiler:Cal's]] Abel.
* CassandraTruth: When he tells Heather in the storyline where Corey wasn’t [[spoiler: outed as a Team Meteor Admin that Corey was one of their agents]], she doesn’t believe him. As she points out though, considering he’d lied about everything else, why should she take his word for it?
* CombatPragmatist: What does he do when [[spoiler:his brother Cal]] challenges him to a Pokemon battle? [[spoiler:He just walks up to Cal and pushes him off a cliff]].
* FriendToAllChildren: According to WordOfGod, he secretly really likes kids.
* GenerationXerox: Takes after his and Cal’s father, it would appear.
* {{Jerkass}}: Blake is an arrogant, spiteful and thoroughly dislikeable person.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: He states that he doesn't really care about Team Meteor's ideals and goals, and that he's just using them.
* ShutUpKirk: His answer to Heather's KirkSummation is to ask if she's done yet blabbering, and that he can't hear her over the sound of whining brat.
* SmugSnake: Blake seriously overestimates his own competence, [[spoiler: and is reduced to a ranting, cursing wreck when Heather and Cal finally get the better of him]].
* SignatureMon: Walrein.
* TheSociopath: [[spoiler: Starving an entire city to death to get what he wants? Throwing his own brother off a cliff? He can do all that and not lose any sleep.]]
* ThrewMyBikeOnTheRoof: Blake is often a jerk for the mere joy of insulting and hurting others, and not necessarily because he has anything to gain from it.

The apparent boss of Team Meteor, who even the Admins answer to.

[[spoiler: The true leader of Team Meteor.]]
