15 | A scion of the Macrauls who gets wrapped up in J-Team stuff semi-against her will. |
16 | ---- |
17 | * BigDamnKiss: Kisses Megan openly and intensely on live television during their Galar League battle. |
18 | * {{Expy}}: She takes many personality cues from Amity Blight in ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', with Megan very much being her Luz. |
19 | * GreenThumb: Specializes in Grass-types, including unique ones like her Grass-type Delta Natu Lanatus who resembles a Watmel Berry. |
20 | * HandicappedBadass: She's got LHON and as a result has poor vision, necessitating the use of a white cane, but it by no means affects her battling skill. |
21 | * HeadbuttingHeroes: She and Alice have issues getting along, part of it being the fact that they both have very strong rose motifs and considering the other to be an inferior copy at first. Eventually it turns into BelligerentSexualTension. |
22 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Abilene comes off as cold and aloof, but beneath that she cares deeply about those she loves. |
23 | * OddFriendship: Gets along well with Tagg, despite the fact that he hates the Macraul family with a passion. |
24 | * QueerEstablishingMoment: She has LHON, which is most commonly found in young males, alluding to the fact that she's a transwoman. |
25 | * {{Tsundere}}: When it comes to Megan she acts like she couldn't care less about her, but when Megan gets injured she's gotten pissed enough to even try attacking the Aurabolts in one instance when she blames them for what happened. |
26 | * WhiteSheep: She has her more amoral sides, but for a Macraul she's not that bad a person. |

However, while Diane lived ''as'' a mon with her parents in Treasure Town, Alyssa's parents died, leaving her to live as a lonely human girl amongst wild mons. Alyssa became horribly, socially awkward, while Diane is unafraid to jump into social situations on a whim. While Alyssa is a gentle girl, Diane has tendencies to be aggressive and kind of a jerk.

79 | * TheLoad: Believes herself to be this in-universe since she's mostly ignorant of the greater world and not much of a battler, and joined the Illusion Project in an attempt to change this. |
80 | * LuminescentBlush: A persistent blush tinges her face, even when she's not embarrassed. |
81 | * ObliviouslyEvil: Joined the Illusion Project thinking she'd finally be able to do something for the better, only for it to turn out she'd miscalculated horribly. |

83 | * RaisedByWolves: Lived among Pokemon for most of her life. |

86 | * SpannerInTheWorks: Hampers the J-Team's plan to put a spy within the Illusion Project by unknowingly alerting Echo of the text they sent regarding it, though thanks to some XanatosSpeedChess on Tagg's part things still go more or less as planned. |

172 | |
173 | Casval's Younger Sister. She's a supposed Elite Trainer, which although she has the Pokémon to back up the title with, doesn't really have much else. Awkwardly thrust into the world, she is a simplistic soul that finds solace usually in her main Pokémon, Rai-kun. Despite personality and appearances, she is a very insecure and attaches easily onto anyone that opens up to her. She has been genetically engineered to be infused with Rai-kun's stabilizer, a Light Ball, preventing the Mouse Pokémon from straying too far from her. |
174 | |
175 | ---- |

199 | * BlowYouAway: Specializes in Flying-types but has a strong enough dislike for avian mons that she refuses to train them. This is revealed to be due to a bad run-in with Zapdos back when she was starting out. |
200 | * HiddenDepths: Is secretly scared of being seen as unlikable and indecisive, which has given her issues regarding self care. |
201 | * MysteriousPast: Out of all the Memito J-Team members, we know the least about Brie, with her pre-J-Team history being a complete mystery. |
202 | * NiceGirl: Brie is unfailingly kind and polite no matter what. |
203 | * WalkingTheEarth: Traveled quite a bit before joining the J-Team. |

239 | [[folder:Diane Jaide]] |
240 | -->Played by: @/Eskay64 |
241 | |
242 | A 21-year-old girl who spent almost 15 years of her life in PMD-A as a Staraptor. Until she met the J-Team and followed them into the OU, she had no idea she was born human. |
243 | ---- |
244 | * AnArmAndALeg: Loses an arm during the Entralink Arc, which she replaces with a prosthetic that can transform with her when she turns into a Staraptor. |

247 | * FisherKingdom: She lived her life in PMD-A as a Staraptor before returning to the OU. |
248 | * {{Foil}}: To Alyssa. They both lived with Pokemon for the majority of their lives. However, while Alyssa's parents died, leaving her to live as a lonely human girl amongst wild mons, Diane lived ''as'' a mon alongside her parent. Diane is unafraid to jump into social situations on a whim, while Alyssa became horribly, socially awkward. While Diane has tendencies to be aggressive and kind of a jerk, Alyssa is a gentle girl, if a bit of a klutz. Diane also sticks firmly with the J-Team, while Alyssa ended up joining its ShadowArchetype, the Illusion Project. |
249 | ** LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The dark to Alyssa's light; Diane wears black and red, while Alyssa wears white and blue. |
250 | ** TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The tomboy to Alyssa's girly girl. |
251 | * GadgeteerGenius: She's the inventor of Vierr's Aurasaber. |
252 | * HumanityEnsues: As she and her parents left for PMD-A when the former was still a baby, she had no idea about her true species until Kai brings her back to the OU and she turns human much to her surprise. |
253 | * InterspeciesRomance: With Skye. The species barrier is weakened by both's tendencies to use transformation armbands. |
254 | * HalfBreedDiscrimination: Half white, half black, and the reason her parents left for PMD-A in the first place was to avoid racism being directed at them or Diane for their relationship. |
255 | * MorphicResonance: Has a streak of red in her otherwise black hair, resembling a Staraptor. |
256 | * MythologyGag: Her name was a reference to [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Pokemon Diamond]], and later to VideoGame/{{Telefang}} (AKA Pokemon ''Diamond'' and ''Jade''). |
257 | * {{Polyamory}}: Is in a relationship with both Skye and Alyssa. |
258 | * RedOniBlueOni: Is the red to both Alyssa's and Skye's blues, in different ways. Reflected in the former pair with their eyes and color schemes. |

260 | |
261 | [[folder:Duke (Howlson)]] |
262 | |
263 | Lyuri's Lucario and strongest Pokémon, Duke is held in high regards by everyone in the team due to his prowess in combat. He's a very calm, friendly and loyal guy who tries to be as helpful as possible while also aiming to be the strongest he can. |
264 | ---- |
265 | * AccidentalPervert: It happens and he doesn't even realize it until someone calls him out on it. |
266 | * AscendedExtra: He already had a good bit of screentime earlier on, being probably Lyuri's second Pokémon with the most screentime. However, starting in Unova-2 where he turned into a human, he eventually got as much screentime as the other [=PCs=], got into a relationship, became an Aura teacher and as of now even became a trainer himself, culminating in becoming a Alternate PC himself. |
267 | * BadassTeacher: To Jordan, Gex, Lyuri and Herbert. |
268 | * BareFistedMonk: Both as a Pokémon and a human, Duke is quite skillful on physical combat. |
269 | * BerserkButton: Causing any harm to his belongings is one for him, those close to him also qualify as "belongings". |
270 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Towards Riku and also Lucius, and doubles as a BigBrotherMentor to the latter |
271 | * BloodKnight: Enjoys challenges and battles, but not excessively so. He can be a bit brutal when fighting though. |
272 | * BrainwashedAndCrazy: Becomes a [[spoiler: Shadow Pokémon]] in the Orre arc. |
273 | * CluelessChickMagnet: As a human, though he has at least been the target of the affections of at least one Pokémon as a Lucario. |
274 | * CurbStompBattle: He has a tendency to deliver these, most notably taking down Kirk easily and, as Mega Lucario, being able to defeat Omega while only being hit once. |
275 | * FirstKiss: With Lyuri |
276 | * {{Foil}}: |
277 | ** He acts as one for Lyuri in that he's calm, nice and easygoing while Lyuri is more active and impulsive, being much more likely to start fights. They do share similar tastes and tendencies, such as trying to help anyone they can, but differ mostly in their methods and atittudes. |
278 | ** He's also one for Herbert in that he's idealistic and optimistic to the point of coming out as almost naive and also cheerful, nice and tough; while Herbert is cynical, pessimistic, frequently on an either depressed or bad mood, has some {{Jerkass}} tendencies and being much frailer physically. Despite all this, they have a brotherly relationship complete with some BigBrotherWorship from Herbert's part. |
279 | * {{Geek}}: Reads the same comics as Lyuri and seems to enjoy them, again, it's not revealed which ones he reads though. Herbert eventually gives him some [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Crobatman]] comics to read as well. |
280 | * GoodOldFisticuffs: He leans more towards punches than kicks. |
281 | * HumanityEnsues: Became human during Unova-2 and even after going back to normal he often makes use of one of armbands due to eventually deciding he liked being human more than a Pokémon. |
282 | * {{Hunk}}: As a human, he's quite buff and again, quite handsome, which becomes a bit of a problem for Tori who even describes him as a Hunk. |
283 | * InterspeciesRomance: With Lyuri |
284 | * JackOfAllTrades: Is good at both physical and ranged combat, can buff all of his stats except Speed due to knowing Calm Mind, Bulk Up, Nasty Plot and Swords Dance, can act as a supporter with Heal Pulse and Helping Hand, has an extense list of moves to choose from when fighting and a good number of resistances. All in all, Duke has either a big advantage or can fight most opponents on even grounds, even those who have a typing that is super-effective against him. It's no wonder he became Lyuri's most reliable and strongest Pokémon. |
285 | * MeaningfulName: It means "leader", his role in the team and also reflects his position as a teacher to both Lyuri and especially Herbert, who thinks of him as a mentor. |
286 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Once he's purified he has this reaction to his actions as a Shadow Pokémon. |
287 | * NiceGuy: He's polite, kind, reasonable and hardly holds a grudge against anyone. |
288 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: The Nice to Herbert's Mean and Lyuri's Inbetween. |
289 | * ObliviousToLove: To great extents, though this changed slightly after he and Lyuri started dating. Emphasis on "slightly" |
290 | * OfficialCouple: With Lyuri |
291 | * ShirtlessScene: Which brings a lot of problems to Tori. |
292 | * SuperMode: Can Mega Evolve. |
293 | * TeamDad: Not shown often, but he does take care of the kids on Lyuri's team most of the time. He's also the one who tends to keep everyone in line among those he's close to, mostly due to him being the least likely to lose his temper. |
294 | * TrainingFromHell: His training comes close to this at certain points. |
295 | * TranquilFury: He keeps a calm composure at all times, though it's not too hard to tell if he's angry or not. |
296 | * UnknownRival: Zack is one to him, on the human side of things, this was Jason's case initially until he eventually got on better terms with him. |
297 | * YoungerThanTheyLook: As a human he looks about 17, but in actuality he's about 9 or 10, the fact that he is more mature than the average teenager makes him look even older. |
298 | |
299 | !Tropes Applying to [[spoiler:Shadow!]]Duke |
300 | |
301 | * BloodKnight: Of the worst kind. |
302 | * BreakingSpeech: Gives one to Herbert in Duke's mindscape. It doesn't quite work as he expected. |
303 | * ColdBloodedTorture: Was quite obviously planning to do this to Herbert and his team after beating them. |
304 | * CurbStompBattle: Delivers one to Herbert and his team |
305 | * DissonantSerenity: Always smiling and usually talks in casual speech |
306 | * ImplacableMan: Nothing Herbert's team did to him managed to phase him much, until their last battle. |
307 | * LackOfEmpathy: Doesn't care one bit about how others feel about what he does |

Since then, she has a great deal of respect for Kyurem, despite being unable to understand him. Because of her encounter with Kyurem, she became an Ice trainer.

329 | |
330 | !!Seven the Sneasel |
331 | |
332 | Elise's starter Pokemon. Despite this, she has not evolved, due to Elise never getting around to giving her a Razor Claw and the fact that Seven isn't really concerned with evolving. |
333 | ---- |

335 | * YouAreNumberSix: Well, Seven in her case. |
336 | |

365 | |
366 | A former Shadow Pokemon, Pandora first met Elise when they both ended up in a Cipher lab. The experiments done on her and Elise would cause the two of them to have a permanent mind link.

729 | %%[[/folder]] |
730 | |
731 | [[folder: Ingrid's Pokemon]] |
732 | |
733 | !! Tropes applying to all of them: |
734 | ---- |
735 | * FourPhilosophyEnsemble: The first four members of the A*Team fall into one of these: |
736 | ** The Apathetic: Benny |
737 | ** The Cynic: Frida |
738 | ** The Optimist: Bjorn |
739 | ** The Realist: Agnetha |
740 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: The first four members of the A*Team- the ones named after the ABBA members- fall into this: |
741 | ** Frida: Choleric ([[DramaQueen overly]] [[LargeHam dramatic]], [[ItsAllAboutMe slightly egotistical]], a bit of a TeamPrimaDonna) |
742 | ** Bjorn: Sanguine ([[GenkiGuy cheerful]] and [[MotorMouth talkative]]; willing to help others whenever they need it) |
743 | ** Benny: Melancholic ([[AFatherToHisMen strict, stern, and militaristic]], as well as the group's resident [[TheStoic stoic]] and OnlySaneMan) |
744 | ** Agnetha: Phlegmatic ([[ShrinkingViolet extremely shy]], [[ProneToTears sensitive]], and [[YamatoNadeshiko motherly]]) |
745 | ** Ananpi, Bitey, and Bindi, meanwhile, are respectively [[LoonWithAHeartOfGold sanguine]], [[WideEyedIdealist phlegmatic]], and [[MischiefMakingMonkey choleric]], possibly setting up another example of this. |
746 | * MusicalThemeNaming: The first four members are named after the members of ABBA; the next four [[ThemeInitials follow an A-B-B-A naming scheme]], [[AlphabeticalThemeNaming followed by a transitional A-B-C-D one]] and then by multiple naming schemes that are a certain number of places removed from A-B-B-A. |

763 | |
764 | Tropes associated with him include: |
765 | ---- |
766 | * AllLovingHero: Ananpi is probably one of the kindest members of Ingrid's team despite his [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} absurdist]] tendencies. In his very first appearance, he comforts his Trainer when she thinks that she's accidentally poisoned him, and is the only one of the A*Team to not get annoyed or unnerved by Bitey's tendency to [[DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength accidentally use Bulldoze or Earthquake]] when jumping up and down. |
767 | * AllLowercaseLetters: Ananpi speaks with these as part of his [[VerbalTic Hasslemon typing quirk]]. |
768 | * ApologeticAttacker: Downplayed; he usually apologizes whenever he paralyzes a Pokemon in battle, but enjoys battling and finds it fun. |
769 | * AsideGlance: Given his MediumAwareness, Ananpi tends to do this a lot, often [[BreakingTheFourthWall speaking directly to the audience]] while he does it. |
770 | * BewareTheSillyOnes: Despite Ananpi's silly behavior, he is also very much a strong and capable battler... even if he only knows moves that Pikachu can learn. If you ever do manage to make him angry, watch out for an ''extremely'' powerful Thunderbolt coming your way. |
771 | ** In a somewhat related vein, don't underestimate Ananpi whenever he plays a game of ''Series/{{Pointless}}'' or ''Series/OnlyConnect''; [[GeniusDitz due to his tendency to think of the last things anyone would expect, he is]] ''[[GeniusDitz deceptively]]'' [[GeniusDitz good at them]]. |
772 | * BigEater: While not as big of an eater as [[MeaningfulName Bitey]] is, Ananpi is still very much an enjoyer of food- particularly berries, ketchup, and his TrademarkFavoriteFood, popcorn. |
773 | * BouncingBattler: Bounce is Ananpi's favorite move {and [[{{Irony}} ironically]] is the only one he ''doesn't'' share with Pikachu), and he often uses it in the heat of battle to avoid super effective attacks. |
774 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: ''Oh god yes.'' Ananpi will not only make aside glances at the camera, but [[MediumAwareness has a tendency to acknowledge things that happen within the RP itself]], such as text formatting, typing quirks, and the like, as well as talk directly to the audience. |
775 | * CharacterTics: Besides his obvious tendencies as a fourth-wall breaker, Ananpi also has a tendency to ride on Ingrid's shoulder, shock berries in order to tenderize them, and do other things associated with Pikachu. He also has a tendency to bounce rather than walking (when he's not riding on Ingrid's shoulder), and according to [=Goldenheart388=], his tail "droops" whenever he gets sad. |
776 | * CharacterizationMarchesOn: When Ananpi was introduced, he was merely a bit ditzy rather than the complete {{Cloudcuckoolander}} he later on became, and there was a bigger emphasis on the "heart of gold" part of LoonWithAHeartOfGold than the "loon" part. By the time of Ingrid's first Galar Gym, however, he was fully established as the kindhearted MetaGuy with MediumAwareness that he is known for being today. |
777 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Without question Ananpi's biggest trait. Besides his tendency to break the fourth wall, he will oftentimes talk to himself, [[ThinkingOutLoud think out loud]], blurt out random [[NonSequitur non-sequiturs]], [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and act like a Pikachu]]- to the extent that he refuses to go into his [=PokeBall=] except for Hasslemon purposes, only uses moves that he shares with Pikachu (barring Bounce), has "chuu" as a VerbalTic, and has a Pikachu-based typing quirk. |
778 | * CobwebTrampoline: Oftentimes, Ananpi will use his Electroweb move as a trampoline in order to allow him to Bounce even ''higher'' than he otherwise would. |
779 | * ConfusionFu: If he's not using one of his regular moves, he's improvising them on the fly. This, naturally, causes a massive amount of confusion for his enemies. |
780 | * ColorCodedCharacters: Ananpi's text coloration, like Frida's, is yellow ("gold", technically), and his associated tricolor is a yellow-black-brown mix. |
781 | * CuckoolanderCommentator: Ananpi fills this role during Ingrid's Gym Battles post-Sinnoh- complete with silly "punishments" for the loser (usually painting their face to look like a Pikachu's). This, naturally, is filled with fourth-wall breaking and non-sequiturs. |
782 | * TheCloudcuckoolanderWasRight: Thanks to Ananpi's tendency to think out loud and say things that nobody would expect, he will sometimes come up with ideas that seem crazy at first-- but end up being the perfect solution. Most notably, he was the one to suggest to Ingrid that she utilize Bindi's RubberHoseLimbs and ToonPhysics to round up the Wooloo during her Turffield Gym Puzzle. |
783 | * TheDitz: When Ananpi's not a GeniusDitz, he's a completely silly scatterbrain. |
784 | * {{Expy}}: According to [=Goldenheart388=], Ananpi is one of [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic FiM!Pinkie Pie]] (minus the party stuff), with a dash of a more kid-friendly ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} thrown in for good measure. |
785 | * FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider: Ananpi is an exciteable, kindhearted, and friendly Galvantula... even if he can be a bit [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} kooky.]] |
786 | * FriendToAllChildren: As he is OneOfTheKids (along with Bitey), he gets along very well with small children- especially considering that he enjoys dressing up as a [[SeriesMascot Pikachu]], which is definitely popular with children. According to [=Goldenheart388=], before he was caught by Ingrid, he used his antics to entertain children and families. |
787 | * FunPersonified: ''Ohhhh yes.'' |
788 | * GeniusDitz: His OpaqueNerdGlasses are there for a reason. Despite his craziness, Ananpi is a very strategic battler, who often will use Bounce to avoid supereffective moves (as he did during Ingrid's battle against Channah). However, his tendencies of this are much more often shown when he watches an episode of ''Series/{{Pointless}}'' or ''Series/OnlyConnect'', in which cases the cloudcuckoolander will be right more often than not. This is somewhat less impressive for the former show (since it's the entire point of the game), but it is ''extremely'' so for the latter, which is a game show that is widely known for being ridiculously hard. According to [=Goldenheart388=], he has: |
789 | ** Gotten numerous 5-point answers on ''Only Connect''- often before the contestants |
790 | ** Given many pointless or near-pointless answers on ''Pointless'' |
791 | ** Been able to ''immediately'' sort a wall on ''Only Connect'' |
792 | ** And then later on, we get to actually see just how good he is at ''Only Connect''-- not only is he the first one to get the [[spoiler: Spice Girls connection]], but he is able to get it ''the instant'' he sees the first clue. The rest of the team members, particularly Frida, are amazed. He is also immediately able to identify [[spoiler: the theme from ''The Littlest Hobo'']] and subsequently makes the connection on the next clue that [[spoiler: all of the songs have to do with dogs.]] |
793 | * GoodFeelsGood: Ananpi enjoys being kind and sweet to other people and Pokemon, and especially enjoys entertaining them and making them happy. |
794 | * {{Hammerspace}}: Naturally, given his fourth-wall breaking tendencies, Ananpi has access to this. |
795 | * HearingVoices: Ananpi has what he refers to as "silly head voices", that he is able to directly talk to and interact with in a very Deadpool-esque fashion. [[note]] <They're indicated in notes such as this one, [[VerbalTic chuu~!]]> [[/note]] |
796 | * HyperAwareness: This, according to [=Goldenheart388=], is the reason why Ananpi is so good at ''Only Connect''. |
797 | * IconicOutfit: His Pikachu cosplay, consisting of red painted-on cheeks, a fake tail made out of memory foam, and black paint on the tips of the tufts of fur on his head, which are made to resemble Pikachu ears. He also wears a pair of OpaqueNerdGlasses with spirals on them. |
798 | * ImageSong: "The One and Only" by Chesney Hawks, which serves as an IAmWhatIAm song exhibiting Ananpi's mad-hatter tendencies: |
799 | --> ''I can't wear this [[{{Cosplay}} uniform]] without some compromises'' |
800 | --> ''Because you'll find out that we come in different shapes and sizes'' |
801 | --> ''[[TheMadHatter No one can]] [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} be myself]] [[TheMadHatter like I can]]'' |
802 | --> ''[[BunnyEarsLawyer For this job I'm the best man]]'' |
803 | --> ''And while this may be true, [[LoonWithAHeartOfGold you are the]] [[BeYourself one and only you!]]'' |
804 | * {{Keet}}: Extremely exciteable, fun-loving, and energetic. |
805 | * KidAppealCharacter: Along with Bitey. |
806 | * KindheartedSimpleton: One of the silliest characters that [=Goldenheart388=] has written for besides Axollo, along with being one of the sweetest. |
807 | * LeaningOnTheFourthWall: If he's not outright breaking it, he's doing this. |
808 | * LetsGetDangerous: [[ConfusionFu Dangerously silly, that is!]] |
809 | * LiteralMinded: A slight variant- Ananpi, despite having a love of British TV shows, will oftentimes misunderstand British slang terms. Most notably, he thought that a "pitch" was a baseball pitch (as in a curveball pitch), rather than the British slang for a stadium. He does sometimes have a tendency to be more literal-minded in the traditional sense, though. |
810 | %%zce* LoonWithAHeartOfGold: This is Ananpi's main associated trope on his character page on the wiki |
811 | * TheMadHatter: Ananpi is crazy, silly, and ditzy-- and he loves it. His ImageSong, "The One and Only" by Chesney Hawks, is all about how he views himself as this despite people telling him to be more sane. |
812 | * MeaningfulName: Ananpi's name is derived from a combination of "Anansi" (a trickster spider god from Carribbean folklore) and "Pikachu". While Ananpi isn't necessarily TheTrickster (that honor goes to Bindi), he ''is'' silly and crazy, and he ''certainly'' loves Pikachu. |
813 | ** His Hasslemon handle is literally just ''pikaPika (PP)'', which serves as a reference to his love of Pikachu as well as the Japanese onomotapoeia for the sounds of sparkling, alluding to both his Electric typing and his LoonWithAHeartOfGold tendencies. |
814 | * MetaGuy: He very often has a tendency to acknowledge things in the RP that he finds too strange even for him. The most notable example of this was when he directly acknowledged Toshiko the Duraludon's [[PaintingTheMedium upside-down speech]] during Ingrid's debut battle against Channah. |
815 | * MediumAwareness: Of not just the RP, but ''all of TV Tropes''. He gets confused by potholes, has [[note]] voices in his head that talk through notes a la Deadpool [[/note]], and supposedly knows about ''everything that has ever happened in the history of WAAPT.'' Of course, whenever this happens, Ingrid just thinks he's being his usual self. |
816 | * MotorMouth: Not as much as Bjorn (ironically, given that Bjorn is a TerseTalker as well), but Ananpi is certainly an example of this, especially when he gets ''particularly'' confused about something or whenever he's commentating. |
817 | * NiceGuy: One of the nicest members of Ingrid's team besides Agnetha and Bitey. |
818 | * OffscreenTeleportation: Naturally, especially when he pulls things out of hammerspace. |
819 | * NonSequitur: Ananpi, naturally, slips into these a ''lot''. |
820 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: While an example of this from Ananpi has yet to be seen in the RP, according to [=Goldenheart388=], if Ananpi ever takes off his fake tail (or worse yet, [[TheCoatsAreOff removes his paint]] ''and'' [[TheGlassesComeOff his]] OpaqueNerdGlasses), [[BewareTheNiceOnes you should probably prepare to run]]. The same thing goes for if you're reading a post with Ananpi in it, and you don't see any notes. And if you don't see any notes and Ananpi's ''commentating'', it means something in the Gym Battle happened that absolutely ''horrified'' him. |
821 | ** A similar thing applies whenever Ananpi drops his typing quirk or becomes VerbalTicked. According to [=Goldenheart388=], the former is an indicator of utter horror, whereas the latter is an indicator of a HeroicBSOD. |
822 | * OpaqueNerdGlasses: Part of Ananpi's IconicOutfit, and an indicator of his silliness. |
823 | * PastimesProvePersonality: The following are the four shows that Ananpi enjoys watching the most, in order: ''Series/{{Pointless}}'', ''Series/AntAndDecsSaturdayNightTakeaway'', ''Series/OnlyConnect'', and ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus''. All four are extremely silly and witty British television shows, alluding to Ananpi's craziness. |
824 | * PerpetualSmiler: Despite him not having a mouth. |
825 | * PhraseCatcher: "Ananpi, you are ''crazy''," usually said by [[OnlySaneMan Benny]]. |
826 | * ThePollyanna: Not as much as [[WideEyedIdealist Bitey]] and ''especially'' [[TerseTalker Bjorn]] are, but Ananpi does have a very cheerful outlook on life. He ''is'' an optimist, but most of the time that optimism is pushed aside in favor of his [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} kookyness]]. |
827 | * ProjectileWebbing: Naturally, given that he knows Electroweb. |
828 | * RedOniBlueOni: Funnily enough, he's the Red Oni to Bitey's Blue Oni- if only because Ananpi is far more crazy than Bitey is. Bitey, by contrast, is a sensitive WideEyedIdealist with a love of food. |
829 | * RidiculouslyCuteCritter: As is the case with most of the Galvantulas in WAAPT; for Ananpi it's increased due to the fact that he dresses up like a Pikachu, which itself is also one of these. |
830 | * SarcasmBlind: Naturally. |
831 | * {{Seers}}: Ananpi is apparently knowledgeable about most, if not ''everything'' that has happened in WAAPT. Especially if it involves Pikachu or Galvantula. |
832 | * SidetrackedByTheAnalogy: Naturally, given his literal-mindedness. |
833 | * SillyWalk: BOING! BOING! BOING! |
834 | * SweetTooth: Downplayed, especially when compared to Bitey, but Ananpi does enjoy eating candy in moderation. His favorite foods, however, are berries and popcorn. |
835 | * TalkativeLoon: ''Especially'' when commentating. |
836 | * ThinkingOutLoud: Does this a ''lot'', especially when alone and even more so when his [[note]] head-voices [[/note]] are involved. |
837 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Popcorn, berries, and ketchup, in that order. |
838 | * VerbalTic: Chuu~! |
839 | ** His Hasslemon typing quirk consists of his words being encased in parenthesis and in AllLowercaseLetters, with carats and lowercase o's at the beginning and end of every sentence. Respectively, they represent Pikachu ears and Pikachu cheeks. After the closing parenthesis is a lightning bolt, representing a Pikachu tail, and very rarely Ananpi will insert "chuu" puns into his speech (in words such as "ac-chuu-ally", "cen-chuu-ry", and, of course, "Galvan-chuu-la"). |
840 | ** [[SelfDemonstratingArticle (^o it's ac-chu-ally very easy to write out, chuu~!]] [[MediumAwareness wait a minute, why is my text blue?]] oh, silly head voices! did you do this again, chuu~? o^)ϟ [[note]] <What? No, of course we didn't!> [[/note]] |
841 | * WeirdnessCoupon: Naturally. His weirdness is completely accepted by [[ThePollyanna Bjorn]] and [[ToonPhysics Bindi]], met with total annoyance by [[ItsAllAboutMe Frida]] and [[TheStoic Benny]], and met with mild confusion from just about everyone else. |
842 | |
843 | %%!! Bitey (Trapinch) |
844 | |
845 | !! Bindi (Aipom --> Ambipom) |
846 | |
847 | Ingrid's [[MischiefMakingMonkey playful]], [[GenkiGirl fun-loving]] Ambipom, who is a bit of a [[TheTrickster trickster]], as well as the first Pokemon that Ingrid caught since her journey through Sinnoh. |
848 | |
849 | Tropes associated with her include: |
850 | ---- |
851 | * ActionGirl: To say that she is an adept battler is putting it ''very'' mildly. |
852 | * AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: If there was any Pokemon that would have the abilities of a 1920's-30's cartoon character, it would probably be Ambipom. |
853 | * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Bindi is very easily distracted and EasilyImpressed by things going on around her, but she is able to focus when she wants to- most notably whenever she is in the heat of battle. |
854 | * BerserkButton: Bindi isn't normally one to get angry (she's mostly just teasing), but heaven help your soul if you hurt one of her friends or her trainer. |
855 | * BewareTheSillyOnes: This is more or less Bindi's entire modus operandi, given the fact that she is (most of the time) a GuileHero. Bindi has the physics and rubberhose animation of a 1920's cartoon character and a ''[[ComboPlatterPowers massive]]'' amount of moves at her disposal. All this means that if you do manage to make her well and truly angry, she will quickly show that she is one of the ''strongest members'' of Ingrid Anderson's entire team, and will cause you as much pain as possible. |
856 | * BouncingBattler: Much like Ananpi, Bindi knows the move Bounce, and uses it to avoid supereffective attacks. Unlike Ananpi, though, it's not her favorite move. |
857 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: Bindi is sometimes prone to doing this, though definitely not as much as Ananpi. She's more prone to ''leaning'' on the fourth wall than anything else. |
858 | * BrooklynRage: Given [[TheFlapper what she is partially based on]], she naturally has a thick Brooklyn accent to her speech, that comes out in full-force whenever she gets particularly excited or angry. |
859 | * TheCatCameBack: You can run from Bindi, but you can't hide. This, naturally, is a result of her ToonPhysics. |
860 | * CatchPhrase: [[EasilyImpressed "Ooh~! What's goin' on here?"]] |
861 | ** "...[[EntendreFailure That's what who said?]]" |
862 | * CharacterTic: Using her hand-tails for ''everything''. [[spoiler: ''Including'' inducing her own evolution.]] |
863 | ** To a lesser extent, she has a tendency to wind up one of her hand-tails as though throwing a baseball pitch whenever she's getting ready to battle. |
864 | * CheshireCatGrin: Naturally, given that she is an Ambipom, this is her default expression. |
865 | * ColorCodedCharacters: Her text color is purple, and her associated tricolor consists of the colors purple, black, and pink. |
866 | * ComboPlatterPowers: Bindi knows a total of ''37'' moves, and knows at least one from 16 out of the 18 different types that she can use to her advantage regardless of the opponent. The only moves that she doesn't have a type for are Rock and Fairy. |
867 | * ConfusionFu: Bindi is about as good at this as Ananpi is, though it's less from her improvising moves on the fly and more from her using her PrehensileTail and RubberhoseLimbs to invoke as ''much'' damage as possible. |
868 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Bindi is one of the silliest mons on Ingrid's team outside of battle (only Ananpi comes even close to matching her). ''In'' battle, however, she is among the strongest members of Ingrid's team along with Frida, and ''definitely'' the most diverse in her moveset, being able to obliterate any opponent that comes near her. |
869 | * CuddleBug: Bindi enjoys using her hand-tails to hug her Trainer or her teammates. |
870 | * CuteButCacophonic: Bindi is very adorable, very cheeky, and very loud. |
871 | * DoubleEntendre: Averted, which is ironic considering [[TheFlapper what she is partially based on]]. One of Bindi's most defining character traits is her ''[[EntendreFailure complete inability]]'' to recognize one of these. As a result, she is very literal in response to any instances of HehHehYouSaidX and is very ''guilty'' of inciting instances of HaveAGayOldTime. She is so out of touch with sexual innuendos, in fact, that ''she canonically has no idea what a libido is'' and thinks that it is a PerfectlyCromulentWord. |
872 | * EasilyImpressed: Bindi is extremely curious and very much impressed by things that she has never heard of before. Spoiler alert, you're going to hear her say "Ooh~!" a ''lot'' if you read any posts featuring her. |
873 | * EntendreFailure: She ''canonically does not know what a libido is.'' That's how out of touch she is with sexual innuendo. |
874 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: Her first moment on screen consists of her swinging down from Ingrid's head and accidentally scaring her, showcasing her status as TheTrickster and ThePrankster. She then proceeds to lightly tease Ingrid, before immediately apologizing for scaring her, showing that underneath her mischievous exterior lies a genuine heart of gold. |
875 | * {{Expy}}: Bindi mainly serves as an Expy of early 1930's cartoon characters, particularly those with a prankster or trickster vibe to them. Her exciteable personality and ''especially'' her skills in battle bring [[WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse Spinel]] to mind, however. |
876 | * FishEyes: Bindi will sometimes gain these, along with a ManiacTongue, whenever she feels particularly silly or mischeivous. |
877 | * TheFlapper: Downplayed. Bindi certainly has all of the spunk and slight rebelliousness of the typical depiction of flappers... but absolutely ''none'' of the sexual connotations, drinking, or alcoholism. That being said, however, her ''gijnka'd'' form ''definitely'' looks like one. |
878 | * FunPersonified: Probably even more so than Ananpi. She has a very exciteable and cartoonish demeanor and enjoys using her tails to pull pranks on people. |
879 | * FunWithAcronyms: Her Hasslemon handle is ''wishfulDexterity (WD)''. [[Creator/WaltDisney Yes, as in]] ''[[Creator/WaltDisney that]]'' [[Creator/WaltDisney WD.]] Other acronyms that were considered for her Hasslemon handle, according to [=Goldenheart388=], also fall into this category: DW [[note]] for Disney World [[/note]], DL [[note]] for Disneyland [[/note]], MK [[note]] for Magic Kingdom [[/note]], AK [[note]] for Animal Kingdom [[/note]], HS [[note]] for Hollywood Studios [[/note]], and EC or EP [[note]] for Epcot [[/note]] were among the abbreviations considered. |
880 | * GenkiGirl: Bindi is extremely cheerful, exciteable, and playful, especially towards her Trainer or things that she is EasilyImpressed by. |
881 | * GirlyBruiser: Easily the biggest of the team, considering that she is a fan of girly interests (such as Disney movies) and yet can ''easily'' tear the opponent to shreds with her 37 diverse moves. |
882 | * GracefulLoser: Shares this trait with Bjorn and Ananpi. Upon being defeated by Bjorn in her capture battle, she is first seen humorously waving a white flag with her hand-tail, before ''immediately'' telling Bjorn that he is a WorthyOpponent and that the fact that he is able to use Steel Wing is really cool. |
883 | * GuileHero: Besides her natural battling prowess, Bindi will also sometimes rely on her wits in battle and ''especially'' during the Gym Puzzles. She has a tendency to steal items from her enemies and taunt them relentlessly. Ironically, she does not know the move Taunt. |
884 | * HehHehYouSaidX: Due to her complete inability to recognize a DoubleEntendre, Bindi takes instances of this completely literally, and will always respond to this with "'Course I did! Why are you laughing? I didn't really think it was that funny." If someone says "That's what she said!", meanwhile, she will then respond with "...That's what who said?" |
885 | * {{Homage}}: To early Disney cartoons, to the extent that her Hasslemon handle is ''[[Creator/WaltDisney wishfulDexterity (WD)]]'' and that she is able to utilize ToonPhysics to its fullest potential. |
886 | * ImageSong: "Lone Digger" by Caravan Palace, [[BreakingOldTrends the first non]]-Music/{{ABBA}} [[BreakingOldTrends song used as a character theme for one of Ingrid's mons since]] [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Ananpi.]] The song relates to Bindi's playful and fun-loving nature and her desire to just have a good time with her Trainer. Spoiler alert: [[EntendreFailure she completely misses any potential double entendres in the song.]] |
887 | ** Her Japanese image song is [[Literature/AmagiBrilliantPark "Extra Magic Hour"]], which deals with all of the above while alluding to her love of Disney movies and theme parks. In fact, the title of the song becomes a {{Pun}} when you realize that the Extra Magic Hours were an ''actual thing'' that happened at Disney World. |
888 | * InkblotCartoonStyle: RubberHoseLimbs? Check (even if they're her tails). (Off)WhiteGloves? Check (even if they're ''on'' her tails and tipped in red). Monochrome color palette? Check (even if it's purple). In short, if there was a Pokemon that would work well in this style, it would probably be Ambipom. |
889 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: Bindi has a bit of a tendency to be this, especially if it involves either Ingrid or Agnetha. Fortunately, however, she ''is'' able to recognize when she is being this and apologize for it. |
890 | * {{Irony}}: Her personality and gijinka'd appearance are based on a [[TheFlapper flapper]], considered the epitome of TheHedonist. Bindi is [[EntendreFailure completely unable to recognize sexual innuendos]] and doesn't know what a libido is. |
891 | * ItAmusedMe: In the heat of battle, Bindi will very often taunt her enemies and steal their items just to see their reaction. |
892 | * JiveTurkey: Downplayed. Bindi will only sometimes use '20's and '30's slang terms in her speech. |
893 | * {{Joisey}}: Her HypotheticalCasting is ''Mae Questal''. It's practically a given that she has a thick Joisey accent. |
894 | * LargeHam: ''Ohhhhh yes.'' Though definitely not to the same extent as Frida. |
895 | * {{Leitmotif}}: According to [=Goldenheart388=], it's the electro-swing chiptune melody at the very start of her character theme, "Lone Digger." |
896 | * LethalJokeCharacter: Bindi is a mischievous SillySimian who operates on ToonPhysics and makes witty comments towards other characters. She is ''also'' one of the most powerful members on Ingrid's team, with 37 moves at her disposal (and counting!) that she can use to utterly obliterate opponents. |
897 | * LetsGetDangerous: If an enemy manages to press her BerserkButton, she goes from lightly teasing the opponent to going full-blown Spinel on them, relying more on her moves and less on her ToonPhysics. |
898 | * LiteralMinded: Her constant EntendreFailure aside, Bindi is also more literal-minded in the traditional sense. She sometimes will not be able to recognize certain idioms. |
899 | * MeaningfulName: "Bindi" is derived from two things. The first is Bindi Irwin, the daughter of Steve Irwin, and the second is much more meaningful- it's a female version of ''Bendy'', the titular character of ''[[VideoGame/BendyAndTheInkMachine]]'' who, like Bindi, is a {{Homage}} to Fleischer-esque rubberhose animation. |
900 | ** Her Hasslemon handle, as previously mentioned, is ''wishfulDexterity (WD)''. The "wishful" part is a reference to the Disney BootstrappedTheme "When You Wish Upon a Star", as well as the idealistic tendencies of Disney films in general, alluding to Bindi's slight naivete. "Dexterity", meanwhile, is a reference to her RubberHoseLimbs and {{Prehensile Tail}}s], along with her ability to perform ''tons'' of different moves of many different types. The handle itself abbreviates to ''WD'', which... [[Creator/WaltDisney yeah.]] |
901 | * MischiefMakingMonkey: Of the SillySimian variety. She is a monkey-esque Pokemon who enjoys [[ThePrankster pulling pranks]] and [[TheTrickster tricking]] other Pokemon. |
902 | * MorphWeapon: She ''utilizes'' this to full extent during her evolution sequence, relying on her RubberHoseLimbs and ToonPhysics to essentially evolve ''herself''. Ingrid finds it so hilarious that she [[{{Corpsing}} completely breaks down into fits of laughter by the end of it.]] |
903 | * NiceGirl: This is the reason why her Nature is Impish rather than Naughty. Despite her tendency to pull harmless pranks and steal opponents' items, Bindi is an absolute sweetheart through and through. [[BewareTheNiceOnes Unless you happen to make her angry.]] |
904 | * NonchalantDodge: ''All. The. Time.'' In her battle against the wild Bewear that led to her evolution, she casually dodged all of his super-effective Hammer Arms, and then used Bounce to land the finishing blow with her newly-learned Double Hit. |
905 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: According to [=Goldenheart388=], if Bindi ever stops cracking jokes and goes completely serious, this is an indicator that something terrible has happened. Doubly so if she obeys Bindi without lightly teasing him or calling him a "killjoy", and ''triply'' so if she doesn't utilize her RubberHoseLimbs and abides more strictly to the rules of physics. |
906 | ** Additionally, if she ever puts a period at the end of sentences in her typing quirk, there's a 90% chance that it's a typo. The other 10%, though? It's an indicator of this, and whoever is on the recieving end of it should ''run.'' |
907 | * PinkMeansFeminine: Well, purple, in this case, but Bindi is a female Ambipom. |
908 | * PluckyComicRelief: Arguably the biggest example of this among Ingrid's mons. |
909 | * ThePrankster: Bindi enjoys playing harmless pranks on both people and Pokemon, though she reserves the most harmful pranks for enemies that have well and truly ticked her off. |
910 | * PrehensileTail: As an Ambipom, she has two of them, which also double as RubberHoseLimbs. Her main CharacterTic is that she ''never'' uses her real arms for anything, instead relying solely on her tails. |

914 | |
915 | -->Played by: {{Tropers/Metanoia}} |
916 | |
917 | A Galarian film, stage, and voice actor of moderate fame, known for playing pretty boys like himself. He met the J-Team in 2020 while starting out as a rookie trainer and began following their exploits for 'creative inspiration'. |
918 | ---- |
919 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: To Channah and Tagg, having hit on them on separate occasions, much to their displeasure. |
920 | * ArtisticStimulation: Formerly, as he used to be a FunctionalAddict and happens to be an actor. |
921 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: His personal life is a trainwreck, but he's dedicated to his craft as an actor and takes it very seriously. |
922 | * CaptainOblivious: Kamon happily lives in his own world where people like him more than they actually do. |
923 | * CrowdPleaser: Thrives on attention. |
924 | * TheDandy: Loves fashion and looking his best. |
925 | * FakeNationality: An in-universe example, as he often uses a different Galarian or [American] accent in his roles, as his own natural Welsh-analogue one is rather provincial. |
926 | * FormerChildStar: Used to play the Draco Malfoy CaptainErsatz of a ''Harry Potter'' analogue. |
927 | * HandsomeLech: Kamon is not unattractive, but his excessive flirtatiousness leaves much to be desired, and pretty quickly gets him on Channah and Tagg's bad sides. |
928 | * MustHaveNicotine: Is an active smoker. |
929 | * NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Since he plays ''WAAPT'''s version of Draco Malfoy, he roughly takes the place of Creator/TomFelton. |
930 | * RememberTheNewGuy: A minor case; the entrance of an actor into the roleplay meant that certain in-universe fictional media roles are retroactively played by him. |
931 | * SignatureMon: His Mawile Rockstar. |
932 | * SkewedPriorities: Often more concerned with social media or keeping his clothes intact than what's happening right in front of him, among other things. |
933 | * StarMakingRole: In-universe his was playing a CaptainErsatz Draco Malfoy. |

1126 | |
1127 | [[folder:Leonard Braker's Pokemon]] |
1128 | |
1129 | !! Tropes that apply to all of them: |
1130 | ---- |
1131 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: The first four members of the team fall into this. In order of capture- [[TheStoic Walter]] (melancholic), [[CuddleBug Cuddles]] (phlegmatic), [[WideEyedIdealist Jules]] (sanguine), and [[{{Tsundere}} Romea]] (choleric). |
1132 | ** The next four members of the team fall into a four-temperament ensemble as well. Once again, in order of capture: [[VigilanteMan Serkis]] (melancholic), [[NonIronicClown Panto]] (sanguine), [[GratuitousIambicPentameter Charon]] (phlegmatic), and [[LeeroyJenkins Lithium]] (choleric). |
1133 | |
1134 | !! Walter (Wobbuffet) |
1135 | |
1136 | Braker's stoic Wobbuffet with a penchant for finding out the absolute truth, and his starter Pokemon. He is named after newscaster Walter Cronkite. |
1137 | |
1138 | !! Tropes that apply to Walter include: |
1139 | ---- |
1140 | * AttackReflector: Given that he is a Wobbuffet, he is only able to deflect attacks-- but as shown in his battle against Grohl, that doesn't mean that he can't be powerful. This is especially true given the fact that he can automatically tell whether or not a move is physical or special, so he knows immediately whether to use Counter or Mirror Coat to reflect the attack that's just been thrown at him. |
1141 | * BadLiar: Well, naturally. Given how devoted to the truth Walter is, he finds it rather difficult to tell lies ([[DownplayedTrope unless they're white lies meant to spare the person's feelings]]). |
1142 | %%zce* BilingualBonus: A combination between this, NamedAfterSomeoneFamous, and StealthPun gave Walter his name. |
1143 | * DeadpanSnarker: Due to his stoic nature, he's not above making some sarcastic comments at things that he finds to be faulty or idiotic. In fact, due to said stoic nature and his perpetual expression, this is pretty much the only way to tell whether or not Walter is truly annoyed by something. |
1144 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: Walter is the melancholic one of the first four mons: stoic, serious, patient, devoted to the truth, and a bit of a snarker. |
1145 | * ImageSong: "Good People" by Jack Johnson. Given that it's bit of a tongue-in-cheek song about how everything on TV is either sensationalized, made-up, or the epitome of the worst of humanity, as well as a plea for the "good people" of the world to return, it seems rather fitting for the snarky, serious, truth-devoted Walter. His Broadway image song, meanwhile, is "Wait For It" from ''Hamilton'', which serves as a detailing of his patience. |
1146 | * LastNameBasis: Like most of Braker's Pokemon, Walter refers to Braker by his last name. |
1147 | * MeaningfulName: Walter's name is derived from a BilingualBonus and a StealthPun. Wobbuffet's Japanese name is "Sonansu", which is a [[FunWithHomophones homophonous]] to the Japanese expression ''sonansu'', which means "that's the way it is". That line is the SignOffCatchphrase of one Walter Cronkite. Him being named after Cronkite at all also fits with his personality- like Walter, Cronkite was also stoic, serious, and devoted to the truth. |
1148 | ** His Hasslemon handle is ''[=trustedAnchorman=] (TA)'', which serves as a reference to the fact that his namesake Walter Cronkite was highly referred to as the most trusted man in America. |
1149 | * NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: Walter was named after famous news anchorman Walter Cronkite. |
1150 | |
1151 | !! Cuddles the Galvantula |
1152 | |
1153 | Leonard Braker's kindhearted, exciteable, cookie-loving Galvantula who loves giving other people hugs and helping them out whenever they need it. |
1154 | |
1155 | !! Tropes that apply to Cuddles include: |
1156 | ---- |
1157 | * ActualPacifist: Zig-zagged. Cuddles is very much willing to participate in the heat of battle-- but he thinks that battles are fun games. As such, he's horrified when he accidentally ends up attacking someone. Case in point: he thinks that Giga Drain is just hugging someone with vines, and promptly becomes very apologetic when the opponent's strength is drained. |
1158 | * AllLovingHero: Cuddles loves just about anybody, even people he doesn't even know yet, and is willing to give people and Pokemon the benefit of the doubt- unless he knows for a fact that he can't be reasoned with. And even then, he just feels pity for them. |
1159 | * BadassAdorable: Cuddles is by far and away the cutest member of Braker's team. He also is very much capable of holding his own in a battle... [[DownplayedTrope even if he doesn't even realize it.]] |
1160 | * TheCaretaker: Cuddles is willing to comfort anybody who he feels needs it, usually with a warm and fuzzy hug and sometimes with a cookie. So far, he's done this to Kimberly Bond, Evelyn, and Lithium. |
1161 | * CheerfulChild: Cuddles is sweet to just about everybody and is extremely exciteable, and his human form is stated by [=Goldenheart388=] to resemble that of an 8-year-old boy. He even enjoys playing with his Electro Ball move like it's a ''real ball'' and in the heat of battle will proceed to throw it to the opponent-- only for them to get knocked in the face with it. Whoops. |
1162 | * CooldownHug: Naturally, Cuddles enjoys giving these out to anybody who needs them. Given that it's implied that Cuddles' fuzz feels a bit softer than the fuzz of other Galvantula (according to [=Goldenheart388=] he feels like a soft plush toy), said cooldown hugs feel ''extremely'' good. They certainly did to Lithium, anyways. |
1163 | * CuddleBug: Quite literally in fact; it's even in the name. He's a fluffy Galvantula who loves to hug people. |
1164 | * TheCutie: According to [=Goldenheart388=], Cuddles' appearance is said to resemble [[https://mforum.ist/media/galvantula-love.22487/ this piece of artwork]]. Adding to Cuddles' status as this is his generally loveable and kindhearted nature, complete with his InnocentBlueEyes. Regardless, just about everything about Cuddles is practically designed to make a casual reader go "D'awwwwww...". |
1165 | * DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Cuddles loves giving hugs to people and Pokemon even in the heat of battle... which can cause a problem for him if he accidentally ends up using Giga Drain in the process of doing so. |
1166 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: The first three things we see Cuddles do, in order, are: introduce himself excitedly to Star, ask her if she wants a hug and a cookie, and give her a warm fuzzy blanket to protect her from the cold weather in Circhester. |
1167 | * {{Expy}}: He is based, at least in part, on WebAnimation/LucasTheSpider (as a matter of fact, he was originally Cuddles' HypotheticalCasting), but according to [=Goldenheart388=], he's also based on an amalgamation of misconceptions and misreadings that she had about Kendall's Galvantula, [[{{Keet}} 9-Volt]]. |
1168 | * FirstNameBasis: Cuddles is the ''only'' member of Braker's team to refer to him by a variant of his first name- he calls him "Lenny". [[SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay This was the factor that identified him during Braker's impromptu, unofficial Bond or Break game in the Wild Area.]] |
1169 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: Cuddles is the phlegmatic of the first four mons, being sweet, kindhearted, and caring to just about everybody. While he does also have some sanguine qualities in him- most notably his [[GenkiGuy excitability]]- Jules' ditziness puts them over the edge into the sanguine category. |
1170 | * FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider: ''Extremely'' so, given that he's a Galvantula that just wants to help everyone around him and give them hugs and cookies. |
1171 | * TheGlomp: Cuddles ''loves'' giving hugs to people- but he'll only do so if they oblige. |
1172 | * ImageSong: "Chiquitita" by Music/{{ABBA}}, which is a simultaneously sweet and energetic PepTalkSong (for Cuddles, at least). The title itself is Spanish for "little girl", though this is explained by Cuddles not having any clue what the word actually means. The version from ''Theatre/MammaMia'' serves as his Broadway character theme, and it naturally carries the exact same meaning. |

He desires more than anything to find new Fossils and study the (Darwinian) evolution of current Pokemon, and also is very adamant about learning from the past in order to help preserve the world for a better future. |
1717 | |
1718 | !! Tropes associated with him include: |
1719 | ---- |
1720 | * TheAntiNihilist: Along with the vast majority of his team, save for Teryx.

1723 | [[folder: Owen Edmundson's Pokemon]] |
1724 | |
1725 | !! Tropes that apply to all of them: |
1726 | ---- |
1727 | * FourPhilosophyEnsemble: The initial five mons caught/revived on September 30th fall into one of these, including the Conflicted. |
1728 | ** The Optimist: [[ConstantlyCurious Stipax]] |
1729 | ** The Cynic: [[TheStoic Nautilu]], if only barely |
1730 | ** The Apathetic: [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Crina]] |
1731 | ** The Realist: [[OlderAndWiser Chasmo]] |
1732 | ** The Conflicted: [[NervousWreck Teryx]] |
1733 | * FiveTemperamentEnsemble: Similarly to the above, the initial five mons caught and revived on September 30th fall into one of these. |
1734 | ** Sanguine: Stipax ([[ConstantlyCurious extremely curious]], [[GenkiGuy exciteable]], [[WideEyedIdealist somewhat naive]]) |
1735 | ** Choleric: Crina ([[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} absurd]] yet stubborn in her thinking; [[HairTriggerTemper the most prone to frustration of the [=Jura6=]]]) |
1736 | ** Melancholic: Teryx (a paranoid, frantic NervousWreck battered by PTSD) |
1737 | ** Phlegmatic: Chasmo (the resident AntiNihilist and ZenSurvivor) |
1738 | ** Eclectic: Nautilu (a [[MotorMouth talkative]] yet extremely patient, if finicky, nerd) |
1739 | |
1740 | !! Stipax (Galvantula) |
1741 | |
1742 | Owen's first Pokemon, as well as the first of the five "September 30th" captures and the first of the original [=Jura6=]. He is a ConstantlyCurious and kindhearted Galvantula who wants to know everything he can about the world around him that he doesn't already know, and has an extremely anti-nihilistic view on life. |

1747 | |
1748 | !! Tropes associated with him include: |
1749 | |
1750 | * AchillesHeel: Fire-type moves, as he can easily counter Rock-types via Giga Drain and Energy Ball. This is the reason why he wasn't used much against Blaine when Owen took on the Kanto League, only being used against Blaine's Houndoom (which was part Dark-type, meaning his Bug-type moves easily demolished him). |
1751 | * AdaptationalBadass: In the games, Galvantula's stats are... decent ''at best'', with it mainly being a FragileSpeedster type of mon with decent Special Attack and Speed and middling everything else. Stipax, meanwhile, is in an RP where numbers are completely arbitrary, meaning that he has been able to withstand attacks that should knock out other members of his species. Most notably, however, his biggest moment of this occurred ''offscreen''-- he canonically beat ''all three'' of Lance's Dragonites-- by ''himself''-- with insanely strong Electric-type moves. Even onscreen, though, he's been able to withstand ''a lot'', though Giga Drain and Leech Life do help with that. |
1752 | * AdorablyPrecociousChild: Stipax is 11 years old both in Galvantula form ''and'' human form, and knows a lot about a multitude of things. That being said, though, he still doesn't know everything, is constantly learning new things every day, and is prone to instances of PingPongNaivete due to his Nature (Naive, natch). |
1753 | * AffectionateGestureToTheHead: He will sometimes climb up on, and nuzzle, his Trainer's head. |
1754 | * AFriendInNeed: As is basically tradition by this point for all of [=Goldenheart388=]'s Galvantula characters, Stipax is a kindhearted and caring Pokemon who is willing to help out anyone he can think of in whatever way he can. Sometimes he serves as a voice of reason and delivers knowledge to them (fitting, since among the team he's one of the group's resident [[TheSmartGuy smart guys]] along with Teryx and Nautilu), but most often he'll just do his best to try to help one of his fellow mons. This especially applies towards Teryx, who Stipax has helped out on multiple occasions, most notably in the wake of Teryx's temporary release. It's a trait of his that has stuck since even before he was caught by Owen, back when he used to set up a detective agency and help others with their problems. |
1755 | * AgeStereotypicalFood: Given Stipax's extreme amount of knowledge about the world around him, this is actually zigzagged-- while Stipax ''does'' enjoy sweets and will eat them from time-to-time, his TrademarkFavoriteFood, according to [=Goldenheart388=], is actually Caesar salads. |
1756 | * AgonyBeam: He is able to use Signal Beam, though as of yet he hasn't been seen using it onscreen. |
1757 | * AllLovingHero: As a direct consequence of Stipax's ConstantlyCurious nature, he is always eager to know as much about a person or Pokemon as possible, including why a certain person would do the things that they do. However, rather than subsequently using this information to judge an individual directly, Stipax would instead use it to help the person try and become better. As a result, Stipax is among the most kindhearted members of the entire team, only being matched by [[ZenSurvivor Chasmo]] and [[ShrinkingViolet Anomalo]] in that regard, to the point where many other members of the team effectively view him as the group's leader and look to him for any sort of advice and guidance. That being said, though, he still has a Naive nature, meaning there can be times when this tendency of his gets abused at his expense, but overall Stipax will still try to help them as much as possible. According to [=Goldenheart388=], while he does despise Team Lightning (especially after hearing about what they did to [[BrokenBird Gwana]], he is still curious to know more about them and will at some point directly ask them point-blank why they do what they do. |
1758 | * AllWebbedUp: Being that he is a Galvantula, he is able to learn Spider Web, Sticky Web, and Electroweb, though the last of which is his most-used web move by far. |
1759 | * AMFMCharacterization: This is zigzagged. Stipax is an intelligent, kindhearted, curious, and clumsy AntiNihilist. His favorite artists of all time, according to [=Goldenheart388=], are Five for Fighting, which fits this bill pretty much to a T with their soft rock sound and philosophical lyrics... and ''Shinedown'', which is (barring a few songs such as "GET UP") the exact ''opposite'' of that. That being said, however, "Daylight" and "GET UP" are Stipax's favorite songs by the band. |
1760 | * AmazingFreakingGrace: According to [=Goldenheart388=], this and "Taps" were played at [[PlotTriggeringDeath Stipax's grandfather's funeral]] prior to Stipax being caught by Owen. |
1761 | * TheAntiNihilist: ''The'' most anti-nihilistic of the entire team barring Chasmo. It plays a massive part in why "The Riddle" by Five for Fighting serves as his character theme-- Stipax is effectively of the belief that so long as you live your life by finding out as much as you can about the world and putting as much love into it as possible, you have lived a fulfilling life, and the fact that you're going to inevitably die won't even matter. |
1762 | * ArcWords: ''Every single line'' in Five for Fighting's "The Riddle", but especially the titular riddle itself ("There's a reason for the world/You and I"), which Stipax spent practically his whole life before being caught by Owen trying to figure out. |
1763 | * AreYouSureYouWantToDoThat: Stipax asks this question to Owen upon seeing the latter tell Teryx (who had just attacked [[TraumaButton Tyrie and Rhamphor]] in a PTSD-induced fit of rage) to GetOut and promptly smash his Pokemon. Owen, [[TranquilFury in his anger]], responds that he hasn't been so sure of anything in his entire life. |
1764 | * ATasteOfTheirOwnMedicine: Stipax tends to use his healing moves, Giga Drain and Leech Life, on mons that have just drained him of his own energy. |
1765 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: For someone with a Naive nature, Stipax is far, ''far'' smarter than he initially appears. He knows a lot about held items and Abilities, something that he will often tend to use to his advantage in battles, especially those where it seems he might have a type disadvantage. Beyond that, however, Stipax's natural curiosity and innate sense of empathy allow him to be able to ''immediately'' tell when something has gone wrong with one of his friends-- see his reaction to the attack that Teryx had on Tyrie and Rhamphor, wherein he was ''instantly'' able to tell not only that something was wrong with Teryx, but ''specifically'' that it had something to do with a past history with Tyrunt and Aerodactyl in particular. |
1766 | * BackgroundMusic: His, in his battle against Crasher Wake's Quagsire in Pastoria, was "Barracuda" by Heart. As per tradition with Owen Edmundson's mons, he and Wake's Quagsire sung to it. |
1767 | * BadassAdorable: ''The'' cutest member of the entire team and it's not even close-- but even then he won't hesitate to dish out some hard-hitting moves in battle. As a matter of fact, he is the strongest member of the entire team, save for the possible exception of [[BrokenBird Gwana]]. |
1768 | * BerserkButton: There's not much that can make the normally patient Stipax angry, but one of the easiest ways to do so is to ''intentionally'' hurt either his Trainer or any of his friends. Namely, anyone who particularly harms Chasmo, Anomalo, Gwana, or ''especially'' Teryx will be in for a world of hurt. |
1769 | ** While not necessarily a ''berserk'' button, Stipax tends to dislike people who betray others, as well as anyone who abandons their loyalty towards their Pokemon. Most notably, [[spoiler: Owen himself]] wasn't immune from this- Stipax was horrified upon seeing him [[spoiler: crush Teryx's [=PokeBall=] and releasing him]], and directly asked him if he was absolutely sure about doing it (to which Owen responded that he'd never been so sure about anything else in his life. |
1770 | * BeautifulSingingVoice: If him singing "Amazing Grace" offscreen during his grandfather's funeral and singing "Barracuda" ''onscreen'' during his battle against Crasher Wake's Quagsire didn't show it, Stipax is apparently a very well-trained singer. Only Saura surpasses him, according to [=Goldenheart388=]. |
1771 | * BestForLast: Stipax, the strongest member of Owen's initial team of 6, was the last one used in his battle against Crasher Wake. |
1772 | * BestFriend: He is Owen Edmundson's first Pokemon, and as such, his closest friend and partner. Additionally, Teryx sees Stipax as his closest friend on the entire team. |
1773 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: He may be an adorable and patient Galvantula, but heaven help you if you're A) Team Lightning or B) someone who wants to actively hurt his friends or his Trainer, as he will not hesitate to absolutely crush you to bits (even if he doesn't ''want'' to hurt you). And if he ''doesn't'' start attacking you, prepare yourself for more than a few speeches and tons of knowledge bombs. |
1774 | * BigCreepyCrawlies: While still smaller than most other Galvantula (small enough to fit on his Trainer's shoulder), he is ''massive'' compared to an actual tarantula, being in effect the size of a somewhat small dog. |
1775 | * BigEyesLittleEyes: Stipax has both, given that he's a Galvantula, but his four simple eyes do effectively nothing and are just there for show, while his two main, far larger, eyes are the ones that actually emote and look around. Due to this, he is labeled as a RidiculouslyCuteCritter by everyone who knows him. |
1776 | * BigSecret: His biggest secret, which he has thus far refused to tell anyone but his closest friends, is that [[spoiler: he dug up his grandfather's bones after said grandfather died, thinking that he could revive him at a fossil center, due to him misinterpreting the lyrics of "The Riddle".]] Thus far, it serves as his biggest display of his nature. |
1777 | * BookSmart: Stipax has read a lot of books, and as such, is able to recall a ton of information about Pokemon and the world around him from said books. His gijinka form is very often seen carrying a massive book on history with him. |
1778 | * {{Bookworm}}: Stipax absolutely ''loves'' reading books, both fictitious and non-fictitious. That being said, though, his favorite books are mainly non-fiction, due to his love of learning. |
1779 | * BouncingBattler: He knows Bounce, and will mainly use it to avoid supereffective Rock or Fire attacks. He's used it, thus far, against Maylene's Hitmontop and Crasher Wake's Quagsire. |
1780 | * BreakTheCutie: He experienced a form of this in his backstory, shortly after his grandfather (who he absolutely loved) died. He became desperate to solve his grandfather's (really Five for Fighting's, though nobody told him that), and misinterpreted "there's a reason for the world/you and I" as meaning that both he and his grandfather had to be alive in order for everything to be alright with the world. This ultimately led to him digging up his grandfather's bones and going to a fossil center in Nacrene City in the wake of his bargaining stage, and he only ended up snapping out of it thanks to the person at the desk telling him the blunt truth. |
1781 | * BugBuzz: Stipax knows this move, and has utilized it on multiple occasions. Most notably, he used it in tandem with the BigWordShout during his battle against Wake's Quagsire, which was set to "Barracuda" by Heart: |
1782 | --> '''Stipax''': ''[[Music/HeartBand No right, no wrong; you're selling a song... a]]'' ''[[CarefulWithThatAxe NAAAAAMEEE-!]]'' [[note]] ''Whisper game~'' [[/note]] |
1783 | * CallingTheYoungManOut: In his backstory, Stipax's parents called him out for his foolishness and naivete (and also for getting out of his bed in the middle of the night) after discovering that [[spoiler: Stipax had dug up the bones of his grandfather, thinking they could be revived at a fossil center.]] While their [[DisappointedInYou disappointment]] in Stipax soon gave way to them having a pep talk with Stipax after finding out [[FiveStagesOfGrief why he had done it,]] they still ended up [[YouAreGrounded giving him a week's worth of grounding]] for sneaking out of the house regardless. |
1784 | * CannotConveySarcasm: Stipax's Naive nature effectively means that pretty much whatever he says that is on his mind is almost 100% said with sincerity. This means that, while he can comprehend when others are being sarcastic, it is immensely hard for ''him'' to be sarcastic... [[DownplayedTrope with a few exceptions.]] |
1785 | * CerebroElectro: According to [=Goldenheart388=], Stipax has an interest in multiple STEM-based hobbies, including engineering and ''especially'' science. He is part Electric-type. |
1786 | * CharacterDevelopment: Most of it happened offscreen as part of Stipax's backstory, but after the death of his grandfather, Stipax went through about 3 or 4 of the five stages of grief, and subsequently reacted in rather impulsive and naive ways. He misinterpreted the lyrics of "The Riddle" (specifically, the titular riddle itself) and decided to look for ways to bring his grandfather back, believing that both of them had to be on Earth in order for life to be alright. He started becoming more distant from his family, building machines out of batteries to try and bring his grandfather back to life, and the like, but it never worked. It ultimately came to a head with his most impulsive, desperate decision yet-- straight up ''digging up his grandfather's bones and corpse (!)'' in order to take them to a fossil revival center, believing that said center would revive him. It took the fossil revival center lady [[BrutalHonesty bluntly telling him]] that no, that wasn't how the fossil revival centers worked-- as well as a pep-talk with his parents and [[YouAreGrounded a week's worth of grounding for sneaking out of the house]]-- to bring Stipax back down to Earth. By the time he meets Owen for the first time, while still naive, he is ''decidedly'' more patient than he was back in his youth, and has fully accepted the concept of death as well as his grandfather's own. |
1787 | * CharacterSignatureSong: As is mentioned in ImageSong below, "The Riddle" by Five for Fighting. |
1788 | * CharacterTics: He tends to nuzzle his Trainer in affection from time-to-time, often will consult his GreatBigBookOfEverything if something is particularly troubling him, and-- if he's particularly nervous or ashamed of himself-- will fidget his pedipalps or walk around in circles. According to [=Goldenheart388=], if he's human and is nervous or ashamed of himself, he will adjust or pull down his goggles in front of his face. |
1789 | * CheerfulChild: He is 11 years old in both human and Galvantula form, and is somewhat exciteable and very much optimistic. |
1790 | * ChildLikeVoice: According to [=Goldenheart388=]], his hypothetical casting is Colleen O'Shaughnessy as Tails from the ''Sonic'' franchise, who has this. |
1791 | * ChildProdigy: The difference between Stipax and 9-Volt (Kendall's Naive-natured Galvantula) is that while 9-Volt will ''think'' he understands something [[IveHeardOfThatWhatIsIt only to actually realize he doesn't]]-- particularly if it involves any educational, scientific stuff-- Stipax will not only ''understand'' it, but will eventually get so good at it that he retains it in his memory. According to [=Goldenheart388=], he is immensely skilled in math, science, and physics, enjoys crime dramas and forensics, can play a few instruments, and is very good at ''Only Connect'' and ''Lateral.'' |
1792 | * ChildrenAreInnocent: He's 11, and has a Naive nature. That being said, though, how innocent he is [[PingPongNaivete depends on what he's dealing with.]] |
1793 | * CobwebTrampoline: He can use Electroweb as a trampoline to avoid his AchillesHeel. Combine that with Bounce, which allows him to jump even higher, and it's his one saving grace against Fire-type attacks. |
1794 | * ColorCodedForYourConvenience: His text color is yellow. |
1795 | * CombatCompliment: As was best evident during his battle against Gwana, wherein he was amazed upon seeing the latter use both Flamethrower ''and'' Belly Drum in the same battle. |
1796 | * CombinationAttack: Besides the aforementioned Electroweb/Bounce combination, he ended his battle against Crasher Wake's Quagsire with a combo of Energy Ball and Giga Drain. |
1797 | * ConstantlyCurious: Stipax's main personality trait, and the trope most associated with him. Stipax is immensely curious about ''everything''-- how things work, what they do, why certain things are the way that they are, what the meaning of life is, and so on. His curiosity extends out into his compassionate nature, as Stipax's curiousness will often tend to become ''concern'' if he's dealing with something directly affecting one of his friends. |
1798 | * CooldownHug: While not as much of a CuddleBug as... well, Cuddles, Stipax will sometimes give these to a few of his friends, most notably Teryx (''especially'' when the latter is in the middle of a PTSD attack or just after a panic attack). |
1799 | * TheCoverChangesTheMeaning: Downplayed regarding Stipax's ImageSong- while the meaning of the song ''itself'' isn't changed at all, the meaning it has to Stipax changed ''greatly.'' It went from merely being a thematic outlining of Stipax's character and his anti-nihilistic views on life to that... ''and a retelling of his entire backstory.'' Beyond that, the roles of the father and son were swapped in the second verse so as to fit Stipax better, and as such a few of the lyrics had to be changed to accomodate. |
1800 | * CrimeAndPunishmentSeries: Stipax is a ''massive'' fan of police procedurals and crime shows, such as ''Law and Order,'' ''Criminal Minds,'' and especially ''Murder, She Wrote'' (one of his three favorite TV shows along with ''Doctor Who'' and ''History of the World, Part 2''). |
1801 | * CuddleBug: Again, not as much as Cuddles, but Stipax is known to hug his friends and family from time to time. |
1802 | * CuriousAsAMonkey: Due to Stipax's natural curiosity, he is often shown tinkering with items to try and see how they work. |
1803 | * CuteBookworm: Stipax is adorable and reads a ''ton'' of books, many of them complicated for his age. |
1804 | * CuteClumsyCreature: Stipax is an adorable Galvantula who is somewhat of TheKlutz, especially when he is digging holes. |
1805 | * CuteCrittersActChildlike: As is the case for pretty much all Galvantula written by [=Goldenheart388=]. Stipax, in this case, is a CuteBookworm ChildProdigy with a dash of innocence. |
1806 | * CutenessProximity: According to [=Goldenheart388=], Owen thought Stipax was cute when he first met him, and very briefly fell into this. |
1807 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Downplayed on the "Dark" part, but played straight in regards to the "Troubled" part. Prior to being caught by Owen, when Stipax was around 5 years old, his grandfather passed away at the age of 95 years old. Stipax's grandfather, upon being asked what the meaning of life is by Stipax, gives him the lyrics to Five for Fighting's "The Riddle" before dying. Stipax tries for years to solve this riddle, and misinterprets it as meaning that both he and his grandpa have to remain on Earth in order for everything to be alright with the world. As such, one day at age 7 he ''digs up his grandfather's grave,'' taking his corpse and bones to a fossil revival center in hopes of reviving him. In the present day, Stipax remains haunted by his decision to do this, and was traumatized by the death of his grandfather, who he loved unconditionally; nowadays, he's accepted the latter. |
1808 | * DarkSecret: The aforementioned "digging up his grandfather's grave to try and revive him" decision remains Stipax's darkest and closest-held secret; he hasn't mentioned it thus far to anybody, including Owen. |
1809 | * DeadlyLunge: His Egg move, Lunge, is not only his favorite move, but often serves as his signature finisher. |
1810 | * DeathByFallingOver: According to [=Goldenheart388=], Stipax's grandfather died after falling down the stairs and hitting his head. |
1811 | * DeathIsASadThing: Stipax learned this the hard way upon seeing his grandfather die. It was so much of this, in fact, it impeded his judgement. |
1812 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: At Gwana's request, Stipax battles her so that she can get a spot on Owen's team. |
1813 | * DidntSeeThatComing: While he doesn't say it out ''loud'', he was absolutely thinking this after seeing Owen [[spoiler: crush Teryx's [=PokeBall=] and release him from the team]], as well as the attack on Tyrie and Rhamphor that caused the release beforehand. |
1814 | * DidntThinkThisThrough: Stipax, in the present day, believes this about his aforementioned DarkSecret. When it happened back in the past, his parents tell him as such, to which a tearful Stipax admits their point. |
1815 | * DiegeticSoundtrackUsage: He participated in his first "performance battle" in Pastoria, against Crasher Wake's Quagsire, with "Barracuda" by Heart being the song that plays in the background. |
1816 | * DramaticThunder: He is able to use Thunder, and thanks to his Compound Eyes ability, it's more accurate than usual. |
1817 | * DynamicEntry: Stipax coming in from the sky after using Bounce in order to avoid Wake's Quagsire's Dive, promptly hitting Quagsire on the head: |
1818 | --> '''Stipax''': [[YouFool Silly, silly fools!]] |
1819 | * EasilyForgiven: He is quick to forgive Teryx for his attack of Tyrie and Rhamphor, due to him realizing that [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness there must have been something wrong with Teryx if he was willing to do that.]] It ultimately leads to him and the rest of the [=Jura6=] finding Teryx and learning about his DarkAndTroubledPast. |
1820 | * EasilyImpressed: He has a Naive nature. This is to be expected. The things that tend to impress him the most are him seeing any move used in battle that he can't use, as well as any natural phenomenon or scientific breakthrough. |
1821 | * EatTheRich: More so "eat the rich that don't care at all about humanity", rather than "eat ''all'' the rich", but according to [=Goldenheart388=], Stipax is a believer in this. |
1822 | * ElectricityKnocksYouOut: Stipax tends to use an Electric-type move as his finisher if he doesn't use Lunge or a Grass-type move. |
1823 | * ElementalAbsorption: According to [=Goldenheart388=], if Stipax goes to Paldea and gets Terastallized, he will be able to absorb the Tera energy into his webs, creating an Electroweb variant of every type. There's also Tera Blast, of course. That being said, though, he's planned to do this even ''before'' Owen goes to Paldea. |
1824 | * ElementalSpeed: He is part Electric-type, and Speed is his best stat. |
1825 | * EmbodimentOfVirtue: Specifically, he's grown into the practical embodiments of kindness and patience over the years; only Cuddles comes close to matching him. |
1826 | * EncyclopaedicKnowledge: Stipax has this in regards to Abilities and held items, and is able to take advantage of the Abilities and held items of his opponent in battle. |
1827 | * EnergeticAndSoftSpokenDuo: He forms this with Teryx, his best friend on the team, with Stipax being an energetic nerdy guy while Teryx is a CrazyPrepared NervousWreck who is canonically confirmed to have PTSD. |
1828 | * EnergyAbsorption: He knows Giga Drain and Leech Life, and uses both in battle to heal himself after being hit by a supereffective attack. |
1829 | * EnergyBall: He knows this move, and it allows him to gain coverage against Rock-type Pokemon, which would otherwise be a weakness against him. |
1830 | * EntertainmentAboveTheirAge: Stipax's tastes in television shows are very much eclectic for an 11-year-old. On the one hand, he is a massive fan of crime dramas, true crime shows, and police procedurals such as ''Law and Order'' and ''Criminal Minds'', as well as dating game shows (most notably ''Baggage''). |
1831 | * EntertainmentBelowTheirAge: On the ''other'' hand, he watches plenty of kids programming, most notably ''[[WesternAnimation/{{Crashbox}} Gamecube]]''. |
1832 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: He is the first member of Owen's team to be introduced, and is first seen on Hasslemon happily greeting his friends, asking how they are doing, and later on calming down a frantic Teryx. This immediately serves to set up his energetic, curious nature, as well as his friendship with Teryx. |
1833 | * EvenTheLovingHeroHasHatedOnes: Thus far, in WAAPT, he has only one real enemy: Team Lightning, especially after finding out that they were the ones who killed Gwana's parents, resulting in [[UsedToBeASweetKid her]] [[TookALevelInCynicism becoming]] a BrokenBird. |
1834 | * EvolutionPowerUp: According to [=Goldenheart388=], he had already evolved into a Galvantula by the time he was ''4 years old.'' |
1835 | * ExtraEyes: Naturally, given his species. That being said, though, said "extra eyes" do practically nothing except help with vision and are essentially just there for show. Only the two main eyes emote, blink, and move around, presumably done to make him [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter cuter]]. |
1836 | * FastAsLightning: Stipax is part-Electric type. His best stat is Speed, and he relies on that speed to get things done in battle. |
1837 | * FastTunnelling: Stipax knows how to dig, and can dig tunnels and find treasures in the dirt. He's used this to find fossils multiple times. However, he can't use the move Dig in battle. |
1838 | * FigureItOutYourself: In his backstory, his parents already knew full well what the answer to his grandfather's riddle was. However, they didn't dare tell him, instead wanting him to figure it out for himself. [[spoiler: He did.]] |
1839 | * FinishingMove: If it's not Lunge, it's either Giga Drain, Energy Ball, or an Electric-type move. |
1840 | * FirstNameUltimatum: According to [=Goldenheart388=], Stipax's parents gave him this once he returned home from his trip to the fossil center, in order to try and rebury his grandfather. |
1841 | * FourLeggedSpiders: Despite being a Galvantula, a spider-like Pokemon, Stipax has four legs like all members of his species. |
1842 | * FourPhilosophyEnsemble: Of the five mons that were either caught or revived on September 30th, Stipax is the Optimist, due to his Naive nature and his AllLovingHero tendencies. |
1843 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: Of the five mons that were either caught or revived on September 30th, Stipax serves as the Sanguine of the group, due to his energetic and kindhearted demeanor. What differs him from Crina (the group's Choleric) is that Crina is somewhat HotBlooded and prone to impatience due to her stubborness in her beliefs. Stipax, by contrast, is one of the ''most'' patient, kindhearted, and open-minded members of the [=Jura6=], if not the entire team. |
1844 | * FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider: As is the case with all Galvantula owned by [=Goldenheart388=]. Stipax is a kindhearted and patient Galvantula who is also a major GadgeteerGenius. |
1845 | * FriendshipMoment: Stipax has many of these moments in the RP, but arguably one of his biggest is ''everything'' he does with Teryx after the latter is released from the team. He immediately goes to find out where Teryx is, and after he and the rest of the group reunites with him, he comforts Teryx through a PTSD-induced flashback brought on by Chasmo unwittingly hitting Teryx's TraumaButton. Later on, he then comforts Teryx in the midst of a panic attack, and proceeds to invite him along for a watch party of ''The Wheel''. Teryx is extremely grateful for all of this. |
1846 | * FriendToAllLivingThings: Stipax is a kindhearted Galvantula who is able to befriend most other Pokemon. |
1847 | * FuzzballSpider: Stipax, being a Galvantula, is extremely soft and fuzzy, and people enjoy his hugs due to this. |
1848 | * FuzzTherapy: This is the reason why Stipax's hugs work so well-- due to him being a FuzzballSpider, his hugs are extremely comforting, especially for the frantic and PTSD-laden Teryx. |
1849 | * GadgeteerGenius: Stipax enjoys making gadgets and workable machinery out of items that he sees, and is able to create them to near-perfection thanks to his massive amount of STEM-based knowledge. |
1850 | * GeniusBruiser: Stipax knows a lot about the world around him, is a GadgeteerGenius and GreatDetective, and is a bit of a ChildProdigy. That being said, however, he is also one of the strongest members of Owen's entire team. |
1851 | * GenkiGuy: Is fairly energetic and optimistic, though his energy level is no where near that of [[MetaGuy Ananpi]] or an in-battle [[{{Keet}} 9-Volt]]. |
1852 | * GiantSpider: Compared to most other members of his species, Stipax is a bit smaller than most, but still a giant compared to real-life spiders as well as his own pre-evolution. |
1853 | * GiveAManAFish: Stipax is a firm believer in this philosophy. |
1854 | * GoodFeelsGood: This is Stipax's main motivation behind him doing what he does. |
1855 | * GoodParents: Growing up, prior to meeting Owen Edmundson, Stipax lived in a cave in Unova with a bunch of other Galvantula, including his parents. Said parents loved him and raised him into the kindhearted Pokemon he is today, and taught him a lot of lessons about life and death- even if they had to exercise a bit of ToughLove from time to time in order to do it. |
1856 | * GoshDangItToHeck: Stipax's swearing levels in the RP don't rise above "crap". While canonically, according to [=Goldenheart388=], his parents canonically taught him the difference between swearing [[PrecisionFStrike for emphasis]] and swearing as an insult-- and while his parents did in fact swear multiple times-- Stipax doesn't want to use "actual" swearing for either of those purposes (he doesn't consider "crap" to be a swear word). |
1857 | * GracefulLoser: While Stipax has yet to lose an onscreen battle in the RP, he would be this according to [=Goldenheart388=] in the event that he ever ''did'' lose. |
1858 | * GreatBigBookOfEverything: Stipax often keeps a massive book of facts on him that he will occasionally consult if he doesn't know something. It's usually contained within his [=PokeBall=], as he only brings it out when necessary. |
1859 | * GreatDetective: In his youth, Stipax served as a neighborhood kid detective for other Bug-type Pokemon. He has kept the garb to this day, and has used his detective skills on multiple occasions, most notably when trying to find Teryx (and find out why he attacked Tyrie and Rhamphor). |
1860 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Stipax is blond-haired in his human form and has plenty of yellow fuzz on him in his mon form. In both forms, he is about the sweetest, most empathetic nerd you could ever hope to meet. |
1861 | * HalloweenCostumeCharacterization: While as of yet he hasn't dressed up in a Halloween costume on-screen, according to [=Goldenheart388=] the main costume that Stipax enjoys dressing up in is that of Sherlock Holmes himself, which serves to display his interest in detective stories and crime dramas, his adoration and quest for knowledge, and also the fact that he himself ''was'' a GreatDetective for his fellow mons prior to being caught by Owen. He ''has'' broken out the Sherlock costume on a few occassions, but never as a Halloween costume. |
1862 | * HardboiledDetective: While Stipax in terms of personality is far more akin to a GreatDetective, he often times tends to show shades of this trope when doing detective work, most notably his long monologued inner thoughts. If he ever does it in canon, his text color will even change from gold to gray, representing the monocolored backgrounds associated with most film noir movies. |
1863 | * HeartInTheWrongPlace: This is, and always has been, the main source of Stipax's naivete in the RP. His backstory in particular was the greatest indicator of this, as his belief that the world had to have his grandfather in it in order to exist led to him straight up digging up said grandfather's bones and corpse, something that to this day he still hasn't fully forgiven himself for. He believed (due to his misinterpretation of the lyric "there's a reason for the world/you and I" not as the riddle it was, but as meaning "we literally both have to exist on this planet in order for it to function properly") that the world ''would literally fall into crisis and collapse'' without his grandfather in it, and that combined with his grief led to... a very impulsive decision on his part. |
1864 | * HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Stipax's natural empathy may lead to his naivete, but it also leads to him befriending a ton of people and Pokemon and getting them to open up about their feelings. In particular, his empathy led to Teryx rejoining the team and Gwana slowly [[DefrostingIceQueen softening up about the idea of having a new group of friends and family.]] |
1865 | * HeroVsVillainDuet: While "villain" is a long stretch (Wake's Quagsire was more of an opponent), the "Barracuda" performance that occurs during the Crasher Wake battle still falls into this for Stipax. |
1866 | * HumanlikeAnimalAging: Subverted. Stipax is currently 11 years old both in mon and human years, and resembles an 11-year-old in his human form and in terms of his ChildLikeVoice-- but his Bug/Electric typing, according to [=Goldenheart388=]'s views of life and death in regards to Pokemon, means that he will effectively ''stay'' childlike in terms of voice and appearance for much of his life. It's his ''mind'' that will age in a human-like manner. |
1867 | ** His ''grandfather'', on the other hand, died at 95 years old and actually ''did'' undergo this due to his Bug typing [[note]] which gives shortened lifespans [[/note]] overtaking his Electric one [[note]] which are nigh-immortal regenerators [[/note]]. Stipax is actually a rarity among his family, as he is the only member of his family to have the standard Electric-type "nigh-immortal" lifespan. |
1868 | * HumbleHero: He has grown to be extremely modest and empathetic due to his off-screen CharacterDevelopment, although even prior to it he was a rather kindhearted individual. |
1869 | * IconicItem: Stipax has three. In his Galvantula form, he has his detective's magnifying glass and especially his GreatBigBookOfEverything, which he keeps in his [=PokeBall=] and usually tends to take out from time to time to consult information. In his human form, he has both of those as well as his trademark purple goggles, which are his equivalent to the iconic items of the rest of the humanized Galvantulas (Ringo has his red-tinted glasses, Cuddles has his newsboy cap and blue scarf, and Ananpi has his Pikachu cosplay). |
1870 | * IconicOutfit: His Sherlock Holmes detective cosplay. In his human form, he wears a purple T-shirt, a yellow jacket over top of it, purple shorts, brown legging socks and black shoes, along with his iconic purple goggles. |
1871 | * ImageSong: Stipax is, thus far, the only mon that [=Goldenheart388=] has written for (aside from Laurie's mons) to have ''two'' standard Image Songs, with the former being in relation to his backstory and the latter being in relation to his personality and outlook on life. The first of Stipax's two English image songs, according to [=Goldenheart388=], is the aforementioned "The Riddle" by Five for Fighting, which outlines (with a few lyrical changes) the most important events in Stipax's backstory: the PlotTriggeringDeath of his grandfather and the titular riddle revelation and lyrical quoting; Stipax's confusion and fear regarding his place in the world and the meaning of life during his grounding; and Stipax, now under Owen's care, finally understanding the riddle's true meaning after many years. In the process, it also gets a bit into Stipax's love of knowledge and his general view of life (that the relationships formed during it are the most important thing). |
1872 | ** The ''second'' of the two EN image songs is "Little Wonders" by Rob Thomas (the end credits song to Disney's ''WesternAnimation/MeetTheRobinsons''), which delves further into Stipax's curious, knowledgeable, and empathetic personality and his entire view on life, essentially serving as an expansion of what is detailed in "The Riddle"'s bridge. Said song, like "The Riddle", was also written for/about someone who passed away-- in this case, Rob Thomas' dog, Tyler. According to [=Goldenheart388=], she views "Little Wonders" more as Stipax's straight-up ''image'' song, but due to "The Riddle" having so much importance and meaning to Stipax's life in-universe, it serves as his main image song. His Japanese image song, meanwhile, is "Chiisai no Bokura no Ooki na Heart", which is the first Japanese opening to ''Dinosaur King'', and delves more into Stipax's love of the world, desire to protect the planet for the future, and his relationship and friendship with Owen; while his Broadway character theme is "Best Day Ever" from the ''[=SpongeBob=] Squarepants'' Broadway musical (which [=Goldenheart388=] picked for Stipax because of his massively anti-nihilistic beliefs). |
1873 | ** Originally, Stipax's EN character theme was going to be "World" by Five for Fighting, while "The Riddle" was in contention for Owen. The songs got switched because of Owen's view of looking to avoid mistakes from the past for the sake of the future, while Stipax tended to focus more on the past and present and ask questions related to the past and present as a result (i.e. "How does this work?", "How did this happen?", "What is the meaning of life?", etc.). |
1874 | * ImmortalGenius: According to [=Goldenheart388=], Stipax is the only Galvantula in his entire family who has a lifespan dictated by his Electric typing rather than his Bug typing, meaning that when Stipax dies, he will be able to respawn in egg form almost immediately. While "genius" is a bit hyperbolic, he's a ChildProdigy. |
1875 | * {{Infodump}}: Due to Stipax's immense amount of knowledge, he has a bit of a tendency to go off about things that he's particularly knowledgable about. That being said, though, he's still nowhere near as much of a motormouthed infodumper as Nautilu is. |
1876 | * InnocentAwkwardQuestion: Due to a combination of his nature and his ConstantlyCurious personality, Stipax has a bit of a tendency to ask questions like these from time-to-time. However, they're usually directed at Nautilu and Chasmo, both of whom are OlderAndWiser and as such are perfectly willing to answer them for him... unless it's a question that they themselves don't know the answer to. |
1877 | * InnocentBlueEyes: Stipax, a Naive-natured InnocentProdigy Galvantula, naturally has these. |
1878 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: Stipax has a tendency to be this on occasion, albiet nowhere near as bad as a mon like Cephalo. |
1879 | * IShouldHaveBeenBetter: Stipax's current thoughts surrounding the events of his backstory. While on the surface he appears just as kindhearted and forgiving as ever, underneath it all he has spent night after night cursing himself for his impulsive naivete from years ago. It's to the extent that, according to [=Goldenheart388=], Stipax's current character arc and new character development will involve [[spoiler: him forgiving himself for the events that happened in the years following his grandfather's death.]] |
1880 | * ItsAllMyFault: As is part of his innocent nature, Stipax has a tendency to take mistakes from his past ''very'' seriously. He still has not fully forgiven himself for his DarkSecret, to the extent where he has not told anyone in the RP his backstory (although, unlike Teryx, there's no indication that he doesn't ''want'' to discuss it in the future, since the backstory ''itself'' doesn't traumatize him-- his ''actions'' afterwards do). |
1881 | * KarmicNod: Due to his GracefulLoser tendencies, Stipax very often is able to accept when something that he has coming to him is deserved. The biggest example thus far has happened off-screen, however, when Stipax accepted both of his punishments-- his grandfather's reburial and his grounding-- for sneaking off into the night and attempting to revive said grandfather at a revival center. |
1882 | * {{Keet}}: Not as much as his fellow Galvantula bretheren (mainly Ananpi and 9-Volt), but Stipax can still be like this from time-to-time-- especially when infodumping or asking constant questions about the world around him. |
1883 | * KidDetective: Stipax, who is 12 in Galvantula form and 11 in human form, was a detective in his youth, and went around solving local crimes. Even now that he has a team, he'll still bust out his old Sherlock cosplay from time to time. |
1884 | * KidHasAPoint: Very often, considering Stipax's intelligence and PingPongNaivete. |
1885 | * KidsLoveDinosaurs: Stipax enjoys digging for fossils, and is often times seen hanging out with mons such as Chasmo and Teryx, both of whom are based on types of dinosaurs. |
1886 | * {{Leitmotif}}: While his image songs-- which are meant to be sung by him-- are "The Riddle" and "Little Wonders" as mentioned above, his instrumental ''leitmotif'' is the Lumiose City theme from ''Pokemon X and Y.'' His battle theme, meanwhile, is the opening intro beats of [[Music/{{Heart}} "Barracuda"]], which fittingly was the first performance battle number that he participated in. |
1887 | * LifeDrain: Stipax's main battle strategy- if he's not a BouncingBattler- is to drain the life force of his enemies via the use of Giga Drain and Leech Life. The former decidedly applies if the opposing Pokemon is a Ground-type. |
1888 | * LovedByAll: His kindhearted NiceGuy persona and his geeky nature make it almost ''impossible'' for anyone to hate him. |
1889 | * MadScientist: He has a bit of a tendency to devolve into this whenever he's performing scientific experiments or in times of immense desperation. According to [=Goldenheart388=], when he got desperate to revive his grandfather in the three year period after his death, he went whole hog, created machines made out of batteries, and went full-blown LargeHam. It... did not work. |
1890 | * MartialPacifist: With the exceptions of Gym Battles and Elite Four battles, Stipax isn't one to use violence against his enemies or opponents unless as an absolute last resort. Even in battle, he tends to use more special moves (Giga Drain, Energy Ball, Electro Ball) and status moves (Gastro Acid, Thunder Wave, String Shot) to physical ones, despite his favorite move being the ''very'' physical Lunge. |
1891 | * MeaningfulName: Stipax's name is derived from ''Stipax triangulifer,'' an extinct species of spider. All of Owen's mons follow this scientific-naming theming, including the non-fossilmon based ones such as Steggy (after a ''Stegosaurus'') and Gwana (from a corrupted misspelling of ''I''guana''don''). |
1892 | ** His Hasslemon handle, ''jovialPaleontology (JP)'', alludes to his love of digging up fossils and his relatively cheerful and kindhearted nature, but also abbreviates to the initials of one of his favorite movies-- ''Jurassic Park''. He keeps the JP initialism in his human form, Justin Patterson, who is in part named after ''another'' JP-- ''James'' Patterson, author of the ''Alex Cross'' series (among many other murder, mystery, and crime novels), which is befitting given Stipax's love of the crime and mystery genres. |
1893 | * MellowFellow: Arguably one of the most down-to-earth individuals on the entire team, only behind [[ZenSurvivor Chasmo]], [[SleepyHead Saura]], and, to an extent, Archie. |
1894 | * MoonLogicPuzzle: As is befitting Stipax's status as a ChildProdigy, he has a fairly easy time solving these, and is extremely good at ''Only Connect'' and ''Lateral'' as a result. |
1895 | * MoralityPet: He sometimes will serve as this towards Gwana, often helping her to curb her vengeful behaviors towards Team Lightning (however much he dislikes them). Most notably, he taught her what a Vow Breaker was-- though of course, the revenge-bent Gwana still seeks karma for her parents' deaths. |
1896 | * MusicAtSportingEvents: He has started up almost every performance Gym Battle song, and participated in one ("Barracuda"); the only one he ''didn't'' start up was the very first one, set to "DARKSIDE" by Shinedown (Steggy started that one). |
1897 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: He ''immediately'' had this reaction in his backstory upon hearing from the staff worker at the fossil revival center that she couldn't revive his deceased grandfather, causing Stipax to realize just how desperate and naive he was in his quest to solve F3's titular riddle. To this day, he still regrets it. |
1898 | * MyGodYouAreSerious: While he never ended up saying it aloud in the RP, he eventually ended up thinking it to himself after realizing that Owen was indeed serious about releasing Teryx in the wake of his attack on Tyrie and Rhamphor. |
1899 | * MyGreatestFailure: To this very day, his greatest regret in life is digging up his grandfather's bones and corpse and taking them to the fossil revival center. While done out of naivete due to misinterpreting the lyrics of "The Riddle" by Five for Fighting, he is ashamed of his reckless and desperate behavior from all those years ago, even if MiseryBuildsCharacter ended up taking over ultimately in the end [[note]] given the fact that he was not only [[YouAreGrounded grounded for a week for the stunt]], but also was ordered to rebury his grandfather's bones and corpse the old-fashioned way-- i.e. with a shovel, rather than the use of Dig [[/note]]. To this day, it is a secret he has not yet revealed to anyone IRP. |

2088 | |
2089 | Robin is a budding new trainer with a twist: He's actually a character from a whole different Nintendo universe, specifically Fire Emblem Awakening's. |
2090 | ---- |
2091 | * FishOutOfTemporalWater: Is from a world very different from that of WAAPT. |
2092 | * MysticalWhiteHair: Has this, being based on the default Robin. |
2093 | * RefugeeFromTVLand: Sort of. It's more due to the WAAPT multiverse's weirdness than literally coming to life from the video game he's from, but the overall effect is about the same. |
2094 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: [[spoiler: His increased suffering, depression, and self--doubt compared to his GoodEnd counterpart are a major part of what allow him to be initially utterly subsumed by Grima.]] |
2095 | |
2096 | %%!! Grima |
2097 | |
2098 | %%A subset of Robin's identity, the Fell Dragon of legend who Robin became in his home timeline only for his origional personality to be exised from Grima's whole upon entering the OU.

2103 | Paula after her memories were excised by the Unown, Rose joined the J-Team following finding her way to Goldenrod City after the Ranger-2 arc. |
2104 | |
2105 | For tropes relating to Paula, see [[Characters/WeAreAllPokemonTrainersPathsAndRecoverySagaVillains here]]. |
2106 | ---- |
2107 | * DeadpanSnarker: If pressed she has a tongue about as sharp as Paula's. |
2108 | * DeathSeeker: Tells Savannah during a conversation that she's not sure that if someone tried to kill her for Paula's crimes she wouldn't just let them kill her. |
2109 | * HeelFaceBrainwashing: Zigzagged, while the Unown removing her memories did give her a new lease on life, it was mainly Savannah's influence that helped Rose stay good rather than following her original's path. |
2110 | * IHatePastMe: Makes it clear that she finds Paula to be an abhorrent individual, and even beforehand goes to great pains to distance herself from her. |
2111 | * LaserGuidedAmnesia: The Unown erased every non-motor skill related memory she had. |
2112 | * ReformedButRejected: |
2113 | ** Despite Rose's efforts to not be Paula, Nanu attempts to arrest her thinking they're one and the same, and Lucius attacks her unprovoked much like he did to Verax when they first meet and makes his dislike of her clear to see. |
2114 | ** It's also deconstructed in how her awareness of how there are people who no matter what will see her as Paula has given her a deep depression as well as self-esteem issues. |
2115 | * TraumaButton: Despite the fact that Diane's well aware that Paula and Rose are not the same person, she's uncomfortably reminded of the former every time she's around the latter, so Diane limits any interaction between them. |

2157 | An exploration team from the PMD world composed by a Magikarp (the leader), a Hoppip, and a Wynaut. [[CloudCuckooLander They are not like you]]. They think Splash is the single most powerful move of them all when used properly, but nobody knows how to use it, not even themselves, so they are dedicated 24/7 to find out how. In reality, they just bounce around like morons, but hey, at least they try! |
2158 | ---- |
2159 | %%* ButtMonkey: Hoppip. |
2160 | * CloudCuckooLander: All members qualify to varying degrees, but Magikarp's the one who most prominently exhibits this trait. |
2161 | * ComicTrio: Magikarp is the leader, Wynaut is the follower, and Hoppip is the sane one. |
2162 | * DeadpanSnarker: Hoppip, in spades. |

2172 | [[folder:Tommy Petersen]] |
2173 | |
2174 | -->Played by: {{Tropers/MasterJayAM}} |
2175 | |
2176 | Another IntrepidReporter and [[CameraFiend photographer]] with the Geographic Society who moonlights as Arachna-Guy, an [[ComicBook/SpiderMan oddly familiar costumed vigilante]]. He also hosts a ScienceShow and also doubles as Shutter's all-purpose assistant. |
2177 | |
2178 | ---- |
2179 | |
2180 | * AmbiguousDisorder: His cousin Nick explicitly describes his infodumping tendencies as him being neurodivergent, but without naming an explicit diagnosis. |
2181 | * ArachnidAppearanceAndAttire: He wears a superhero outfit based on a shiny Ariados. |
2182 | * AscendedFanboy: Is a general fan of science, PEFE, and superhero comics; he works as both a science journalist and superhero ''and'' got to work alongside PEFE, albeit as an assistant to the one actually assigned there. |
2183 | * BigBrotherMentor: Graduated to this once he started having subordinates of his own. Shutter was this to him. |
2184 | * BrilliantButLazy: |
2185 | ** Averted for much of his adult life. The [[RequiredSecondaryPowers need to constantly switch between his superhero and civilian personas]] rather quickly mean that he's very, ''very'' efficient when it comes to everyday tasks like folding laundry. This carried over to his professional life, as his superiors have given him career responsibilities that their Marvel Comics counterparts would've never given Peter Parker. |
2186 | ** Implied to have played completely straight when he was a kid since he used his intelligence to steal for fun. |
2187 | * BosssUnfavoriteEmployee: Shutter notes that Hank Harvey is often meaner toward him than most other employees. |
2188 | * BrokenAce: He's [[MrFanservice fit, handsome]], ''very'' intelligent, [[HypercompetentSidekick professionally competent]], and has an awesome career he likes. On a personal level he has [[EndearinglyDorky an affable, dorky]] [[NiceGuy likeable personality]] and is well-regarded by [[TrueCompanions his friends]] and [[HappilyAdopted family]]. Also he's a superhero. Deep down, however, there is a part of him traumatized by the deaths of his parents and uncle that make him act in overprotective ways that have a negative impact on his relationships with others. It has been weaponized against him. |
2189 | * CantHoldHisLiquor: He isn't depicted drinking alcohol often due to looking much younger than he actually is. But when he does go out drinking, it reduces him to a hungover lump. |
2190 | * CelebrityParadox: He's basically Peter Parker in a world where a fictional Spider-Man franchise bearing the same name already exists. |
2191 | * ClarkKentOutfit: Often wears baggy {{Hipster}} clothes, though not always. Many people who know him are generally aware that he is fit, often because he's bragged about it on social media. |
2192 | * ChronicHeroSyndrome: He has displayed a tendency to bail when something bad happens specifically to don his hero outfit and try to save the day. This becomes an issue when he [[OhCrap somehow leaves his costume behind]]. |
2193 | * ChickMagnet: Managed to attract a harem of many interested women ([[EvenTheGuysWantHim and Inspector Shun]]). His ex Jane Stacy (who he has not moved on from) [[WillTheyOrWontThey is heavily implied to still be in love with him]]. |
2194 | * CompositeCharacter: |
2195 | ** He's a composite of several incarnations of Peter Parker. First off, he has the general personality and appearance of the [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse MCU incarnation of the character]] , with little nods to the comics, cartoons, and [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy Raimi]] and [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan later Sony]] movies. |
2196 | ** His role as a television host was derived from [=YouTuber=] Mark Rober and a nod to Doc Ock in ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse''. |
2197 | ** In-universe, he's also compared to Milo Thatch from ''WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire''. One alternate version of him from a Dieselpunk timeline resembles a fusion of Milo and Franchise/IndianaJones. |
2198 | * DumpsterDive: His main method of staking out potential criminal activity. |
2199 | * EndearinglyDorky: The dorky, tries-too-hard demeanor he displays is one of his key selling points to a lot of people. |
2200 | * ExcitedKidsShowHost: He hosts a [[=YouTube=]] science program. |
2201 | * {{Expy}}: He's basically MCU Peter Parker. |
2202 | * ExpyCoexistence: Besides one brief moment when Silas identifies him and he jokes about getting sued, he doesn't exactly notice how closely his background and life choices mirror the Spider-Man franchise IRP, which is so far entirely coincidental. |
2203 | * FormerTeenRebel: As an adolescent, he wasn't exactly the most obedient or well behaved child, though he thankfully grew out of it. Back then, he unruly enough to commit petty thefts during field trips. |
2204 | * {{Foil}}: |
2205 | ** He's one to his immediate superior and big brother figure Shutter: |
2206 | *** While both had their delinquent teenager phase, Tommy was a typical youngster acting out. Shutter was later revealed to have been a flat out JerkJock. |
2207 | *** Tommy often instantly becomes a cool big brother figure, while Shutter--having previously been a BigBrotherBully-- had to learn how to be one. |
2208 | *** Corollary to the above, Galen (Shutter's actual younger brother) barely tolerates and had only recently reconciled with Shutter but got along swimmingly with Tommy for as long as they've known each other. |
2209 | *** Tommy is an orphan and has a lot of unresolved issues that stem from it, while Shutter is largely estranged from his distant parents. |
2210 | *** Shutter actively avoids weird and dangerous situations (which he is often dragged into anyway) whereas Tommy seeks them out in an attempt to fix them out of a psychological need to be a hero. |
2211 | ** He's also become one for Louis Macraul: |
2212 | *** Lou was rejected by his birth parents for not being the villain they wanted him to be and like Shutter is happy to have been estranged from them. Tommy comes from a loving family he'd do anything to protect. Fittingly, when Tommy was [[spoiler:[[BrainwashedAndCrazy amokitized by Pavo,]]]]the first thing he does is disparage Lou for rejecting his relatives: |
2213 | ->'''Tommy [[spoiler:as Red Delicious]]''': I don't need to listen to a man who doesn't value his own family. |
2214 | * GradeSkipper: A rather exaggerated example; He received his chemistry degree at age 19, indicating that he skipped at least two grades in the general education system. |
2215 | * GeniusDitz: Downplayed. While he's currently a lot more competent and on-the-ball, he has (and continues to have) a few moments of absent-mindedness, especially back in his younger days. For instance, he accidentally calls a trunk line within the Stormchaser trying to reach one of the people there and, in the ensuing confusion, gives up and hired a (likely expensive) singing telegram to send a message instead. |
2216 | * HappilyAdopted: Raised by his uncle and aunt and lived with their family in a cramped [[BigApplesauce Castelia City]] rowhouse for much of his young life. |
2217 | * HypercompetentSidekick: Shutter's assistant is a very capable photojournalist and videographer in his own right. |
2218 | * HyperspaceHolmesHat: Invoked; he actually does have a deerstalker hat he keeps among his belongings that he takes out every time he feels like doing a "detective" bit. On top of that, he speaks in a distinctive Galarian accent reminsicent of a [[Creator/TomHolland certain actor]] while wearing the hat. |
2219 | * InTheHood: His original getup was a baggy "hoodie ninja" outfit similar to the one worn by Spider-man in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming''. |
2220 | * IncomingHam: An enforced trope on both his and his supplier Silas' part. His current suit is tight and brightly colored, meant to up the camp so people can look up to and trust him readily. And for the most part he's tried to carry it: many of his earlier battles in the new suit involve him doing stereotypically theatrical superhero entrances. |
2221 | * IntrepidReporter: A courageous and righteous photojournalist who happens to be a superhero. |
2222 | * InSeriesNickname: "Mr. Positive," due to Shutter perceiving him as a [[ThePollyanna hopelessly upbeat fellow]]. Shutter's brother calls him "[[Creator/TobeyMaguire Pleasantville]]." Called "Andy" or by his online handle, TAP, by other people, including two office coworkers who share his first name. |
2223 | * {{Keet}}: He's very personable and hyper. |
2224 | * KidHero: His backstory reveals that he saved Tobi during a field trip and brought down an [[BadPeopleAbuseAnimals illegal spinarak silk harvesting scheme]] by a local MegaCorp. |
2225 | * KindheartedCatLover: The formal owner of a meowth and a superheroic nice guy. |
2226 | * LeParkour: He mentions that he engages in this from time to time. |
2227 | * LogicalWeakness: He is an asthmatic and will succumb to an attack without access to an inhaler. Given the bad hangovers he gets, alcohol serves as a secondary (if rather infrequent) weakness. |
2228 | * MadeOfIron: He's remarkably resilient and can take a lot of physical punishment, except maybe for that spot in his left arm where [[MythologyGag Tobi bit him]]. |
2229 | * TheMasqueradeWillKillYourDatingLife: Played with. His double life spelled the end for his initial relationship with Jane, but not in the expected way. His concern for her continued safety caused him to break things off with her, and for a time, this thought lingering at the back of his head has scuttled his ability to get or keep a date afteward. As Jane [[SecretKeeper knew about the whole superhero thing the entire time]], this was an issue Tommy brought upon himself. |
2230 | * MotorMouth: He's an excitable guy and will gush about things at length in a single breath. |
2231 | * NeverBeHurtAgain: His motivation for protecting others, including his loved ones, stems from repeatedly losing members of his immediate family in his youth. One of his recurring flaws--[[FatalFlaw perhaps the biggest one]]--is that he tends to take his desire to keep others safe too far if his buttons are pushed. This backfired on him twice in his life: |
2232 | ** Initially, his constant worrying over his girlfriend's safety caused their relationship to start deteriorating. |
2233 | ** The unconscious desire he has to protect his loved ones at all costs led him to be enthralled by evil entity. |
2234 | * TheNicknamer: Although usually on the receiving end, he sometimes can dish out a few nicknames of his own. "[[LukeYouAreMyFather Shutter Jr.]]" for Dave, for instance. |
2235 | * NiceGuy: Gives off the impression of a trustworthy adult and more than lives up to it. |
2236 | * NotAMorningPerson: Reduced to a grumbling half-conscious lump when forced to get up really early. |
2237 | * OlderThanTheyLook: Despite being above 18 (26 as of 2023), he can still pass for a teenager and is frequently carded when entering adults-only facilities. There is a [[DawsonCasting precedent for this]]. |
2238 | * OmnidisciplinaryScientist: Played with. He is specifically described as a chemist (that is, his college degree was in chemistry) and works as a science ''journalist'' rather than a scientist. Although he does have some mechanical acumen, he isn't as good as someone with better training and tools. Invoked somewhat in his webshow: he does know enough about general science topics to be trusted to teach it to a young audience. |
2239 | * PurelyAestheticGlasses: He occasionally wears a pair of glasses. It was remarked that [[BlindWithoutEm he used to need them]] but no longer does and only wears them as a disguise. It suits his hipster [[SmartPeopleWearGlasses nerd]] look. |
2240 | * PurpleIsPowerful: Both his superhero outfits--[[RummageSaleReject his hoodie outfit]] and [[SuperheroesWearTights his upgraded super suit]]--follows a shiny ariados' color scheme. |
2241 | * SniffSniffNom: He has acquired a habit of putting things in his mouth that aren't supposed to be there, which allows him to analyze things based on taste alone. |
2242 | * SpeaksFluentAnimal: He took a class in monese in college. |
2243 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Peters'''e'''n, to distinguish him from Peterson and Pearson, who work at the same floor and share the same first name (they use job descriptions and different nicknames to differentiate themselves). This doesn't stop people from [[FirstNameUltimatum addressing him as Thomas]]. |
2244 | * SpiderManSendUp: Not only is he a brazen expy of Peter Parker, his adventures often mirror the adventures of Spider-Man in other media (but not always their outcome). |
2245 | ** His backstory involves becoming an orphan and getting bitten by a spinarak in his late teens. |
2246 | ** He has the general abilities of his cross-fictional counterpart. He develops his own polymers to get around, has roughly the same power set, and even came with a [[Film/IronMan tech-savvy]] [[WesternAnimation/SpiderManAndHisAmazingFriends benefactor]]. |
2247 | ** Physically, he resembles the [[Characters/MCUSpiderMan MCU's take on Peter Parker]] with random elements of previous cinematic Spider-Men thrown in. |
2248 | ** His first name is [[Creator/TomHolland Thomas]] and his middle name is [[Creator/AndrewGarfield Andrew]]. |
2249 | ** Everyone who catches on seems to notice this fairly quickly and point this out. |
2250 | --> '''Jonathan:''' Zip it, Peter Parker. |
2251 | * SpiderSense: He has an uncanny ability to sense danger, [[ChronicHeroSyndrome which motivates him to do something about it]]. He was recently revealed to be a very unskilled Auric. |
2252 | * SuperStrength: Can lift objects several times his own weight. [[MusclesAreMeaningless If only he can pitch]]. |
2253 | * SuperheroesWearTights: Enforced when he got his super suit. He initially asked Silas for a [[MovieSuperheroesWearBlack sleek, tacticool-looking armored bodysuit]] similar to the [X-Men]. Silas disagreed, claiming that he should wear a brightly colored form-fitting super suit. |
2254 | * TeenGenius: He finished college at 19 (and skipped a few grades ahead of his peers to have done so), and this is on top of his reputation as being BrilliantButLazy at the time (implying that he coasted by on his natural intelligence). |
2255 | * WorfHadTheFlu: He lost a battle against a middle-aged cut-rate supervillain wannabe (despite physical and technological advantages) because of an asthma attack mid-battle that took place when he ran out of meds. |
2256 | |
2257 | !!Mimic Manipulator |
2258 | |
2259 | A [[Characters/MiraculousLadybugAmokizedSentimonsters sentimon]] created by the School clone Pavo the Evoker when Tommy tried to avert the same fate happening to his new friend Louis. He manifests as a giant Ditto whose main body mass exists underground. His pseudopods take on the appearance of various Pokémon and, in one notable case, of a human. |
2260 | |
2261 | * DecompositeCharacter: One of two ComicBook/{{Venom}} expies in WAAPT, together with Edward. |
2262 | ** In this case, Mimic Manipulator takes control of Tommy, turns him into a more powerful version of himself, unlocks his inhibitions and darker aspects, and nearly succeeds in turning him evil, much like the Venom symbiote does for ComicBook/SpiderMan. Mimic Manipulator also manifests as a Ditto--a viscous blob-like creature not unlike the symbiote. |
2263 | ** Unlike Edward (who resembles the "alien symbiote" and "clings close to the body" aspects of Venom), Mimic Manipulator is not a distinct entity but Tommy's trauma given physical form, much like the repressed side of Peter Parker the symbiote brought forward. |
2264 | * {{Expy}}: One of his lines is a shout-out to WebVideo/ScottTheWoz, playing on the joke of how Scott Wozniak resembles Tom Holland. |
2265 | * EnemyWithout: A part of Tommy's psyche made flesh. Specifically, it's the part deeply scarred by the childhood traumas and adult fears stemming from them. |
2266 | * EvilIsPetty: When Red Delicious (i.e. the rest of him) no longer wants anything to do with being Pavo's superpowered puppet, the last thing he does is swat the latter into the window of a nearby building as he started losing his powers--in full view of his family. |
2267 | * EvilMeScaresMe: Merely knowing that Mimic Manipulator's not actually a distinct entity has profoundly scarred Tommy in ways he couldn't describe, and it left him in a funk that apparently lasted for a few months. |
2268 | * GenuineImposter: Mimic Manipulator is an evil entity who deceives Tommy's family and their new friends. He's also an aspect of Tommy's mind, therefore he's technically not an imposter. |
2269 | * MeaningfulName: A ''mimic'' who ''manipulates'' people, whether to an Amokitized Tommy to do Pavo's bidding or the Petersen-Sanchez family (to stay imprisoned "somewhere safe" against their will and better judgment). |
2270 | * TheNicknamer: Essentially does this ''to himself'', calling the rest of his person ''Andy Pandy'' in a mocking tone. |
2271 | * NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: Tommy got amokitized just by trying to dislodge the feather that was amokitizing Louis. It also applies to Louis, as his attempts to return the favor fell on deaf ears. |
2272 | * TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: He loves telling people that their attempts to resist him are flawed and how they're all doomed, or just rubbing all their flaws and weaknesses in their faces in a pompous tone. Because he does this using the voice and face of [[NiceGuy the usually pleasant]] Tommy Petersen, this comes off as [[VocalDissonance really frightening]] to his loved ones and [[FailedAttemptAtDrama douchey and annoying]] to his opponents. |
2273 | ** When he first manifested as a separate entity, turning into a facsimile of the rest of himself and then telling Louis off (before manifesting a frying pan and hitting him with it). |
2274 | --> '''Mimic Manipulator:''' That's right, go sit here and [[WellDoneSonGuy cry for mommy and daddy]]. I've a family to protect and Red Delicious? He's got a team of interlopers to destroy. And by the way, Pavo sends their regards, [[WebVideo/ScottTheWoz so get your face ready]]. |
2275 | ** He tells the Nightingale and the rest of the fighters that Pavo's power set is not something that's easily beaten, since they've been capable of weaponizing just about anyone's inner turmoil. He also says that even if he's beaten, another enthralled villain and sentimon will keep moving closer and closer to the Stormchaser, [[{{Foreshadowing}} perhaps even targeting one of them]]. |
2276 | ** Becomes the recipient of this once his hold on the rest of Tommy's psyche started to slip (Tommy had previously been chastising himself for lacking the mental fortitude to stop Mimic Manipulator from forming in the first place). |
2277 | * SappingTheShapeshifter: He's ultimately defeated by overextension. The combined effort of the Aelfric siblings, the Schoolchild Neon, the Petersen-Sanchez, Macraul, and Rhodes families, Tobi as Arachna-Guy, Nightingale, and their collective Pokémon spread his attacks too thin, leaving him vulnerable to being put in his place by Tommy himself once the feather was dislodged. |
2278 | * SelfDeprecation: He describes Tommy's psyche as "fucked up," which borders on hypocritical since he's the one aspect of it that fits the description like a glove. |
2279 | * SuperpoweredEvilSide: Tommy's traumas and fears turned into a sort-of separate entity--and also a very powerful Ditto. |

2282 | |
2283 | [[folder:Tommy's Pokémon]] |
2284 | |
2285 | !Tobi/Aranos the male Spinarak |
2286 | An oddly colored spinarak Tommy stole/"rescued" from a Best Berry subsidiary's illegal Spinarak farm who doubles as his [[AnimalSuperhero partner/sidekick]]. |
2287 | ---- |
2288 | * ApologizesALot: He knows he can make people and other pokémon uncomfortable simply by being a Spinarak and tries to allay their fears by being nice and apologetic. |
2289 | * ArachnidAppearanceAndAttire: Inverted. He wears a pair of tiny sunglasses which aims to make him more anthropomorphic. |
2290 | * CreepyGood: Aranos [[ExploitedTrope understands that]] SpidersAreScary and uses this to his advantage. |
2291 | * CollectiveIdentity: Played with. Whenever he is transformed into a human being by an armband, he goes from being Arachna-Guy's partner to being Arachna-Guy himself. As far as he's concerned, however, Tommy is the true Arachna-Guy. He only "fills in" to help maintain his trainer's double life (and to keep his hometown safe whenever his trainer is away. |
2292 | * {{Expy}}: Of the spider that bit [[ComicBook/SpiderMan Peter Parker]]. |
2293 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: He was a genetic experiment and part of an illegal Spinarak silk harvesting scheme. His genetic profile is also very valuable to [[MegaCorp the parent corporation]] of the company that made him. |
2294 | * FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider: Possesses an [[HumbleHero "aw shucks"]] likeable [[NiceGuy pleasant persona]], quite similar to his trainer. |
2295 | * FriendsRentControl: In his human guise, he took a job at the Clavis Corporation that provided him with a nice rent-controlled apartment, which was nicer than anything he could afford in Castelia City on his own. This turn of events bewildered his trainer, who had grown up in a lower middle income household. |
2296 | * GeneticEngineeringIsTheNewNuke: True to [[Film/SpiderMan1 form]], Tobi is a genetic experiment, created by Best Berry, and his bite was responsible for many (though not all) of Tommy's enhanced abilities. |
2297 | * InsistentTerminology: Sees himself as a superhero in his own right and claims half-jokingly that [[ActuallyThatsMyAssistant Arachna-Guy is the sidekick]]. |
2298 | * Letters2Numbers: His LineOfSightName was drawn from his alphanumeric designation, T-0131. Out-of-universe, he is named for [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy Tobey Maguire]], and some people have made this assumption in-universe, which was [[RetCon before the alphanumeric was revealed]]. |
2299 | * PaletteSwap: Colored like a shiny Ariados despite only being a Spinarak. |
2300 | * StoutStrength: As a human, he gained a notable amount of pudge from eating pizza, so he's developed a build that's slightly more rotund than the more [[HeroicBuild athletic, cut]] figure Tommy has. On top of having the same powers, he is every bit as physically strong ([[TruthInTelevision if not significantly stronger]]). While the difference is enough to be noticeable from up close, nobody really calls it out. |
2301 | * TriangleShades: Part of his superhero getup as a Spinarak are triangular shades. |
2302 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: [[Film/SpiderMan2 Pizza time!]] |
2303 | * WeaksauceWeakness: As a Spinarak, he is lactose intolerant and pizza is a poor substitute to his regular diet. Tommy usually dissuades him from eating it. |
2304 | |
2305 | ![[WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012 Drake]] the male Joltik |
2306 | A tiny, friendly joltik who was rescued from smugglers alongside his family by Arachna-Guy and was adopted by Tommy not long after. |
2307 | ---- |
2308 | * TheBabyOfTheBunch: Much younger (and smaller) than his fellows and also the last egg in his mother's brood to have hatched. |
2309 | * BadassAdorable: A cute jumping spiderling who's good enough in combat to work as a superhero. |
2310 | * FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider: He's a Joltik who moonlights as a superhero's sidekick from time to time; "friendly" [[SpiderManSendUp comes with the territory]]. Moreover, if Tommy befriends someone, he'd want to befriend them, too. |
2311 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: He and his family were smuggled from a protected area by poachers and kept in cramped inhumane conditions. He remains [[AngstWhatAngst remarkably well adjusted]] after the rescue and is very grateful to Tommy for rescuing his family. |
2312 | * HappilyAdopted: Beyond merely being very grateful for being rescued from abusive traffickers, he sees Tommy as "[[TeamDad like mother, but as a male human]]." |
2313 | * HeadPet: He frequently travels on Tommy's scalp and is small enough that he can hide in his hair. |
2314 | * HeroWorship: Tommy saved him and his family from poachers; ever since then, he's come to admire his trainer a lot. |
2315 | * {{Keet}}: A hyper little spiderling. |
2316 | * LegacyCharacter: Takes on the [[AnimalSuperheroes Aranos]] identity in Tobi's absence |
2317 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: Drake is the smallest and cutest of Tommy's Pokkémon. This does not stop him from holding his own in a battle, especially when he's managed to gorge a lot of electricity. |
2318 | * ShockAndAwe: He is an electric type and one of Tommy's better battlers, surprising given his size and immaturity. |
2319 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: As with Tobi, he developed a fondness for pizza (which he isn't supposed to eat). |
2320 | |
2321 | !!Shinji the male Kabuto |
2322 | A Kabuto cloned from a Cambrian-era fossil. Recently took on the superhero identity of Cheirurus. |
2323 | ---- |
2324 | * BerserkButton: Takes poorly to any insinuation that extinct pokémon are "outmoded" |
2325 | * DishingOutDirt: It comes with being part rock-type. |
2326 | * GlacierWaif: Not a very big pokémon but prone to stone walling his way through an especially thorny battle. His favored move in a type-mismatched battle is "harden." |
2327 | * FantasticSlur: Tends to call malamar [[UsefulNotes/PrehistoricLife [orthocones]]]. |
2328 | * FossilRevival: Cloned from DNA extracted from a dome fossil, later found to be an egg-laying kabuto. |
2329 | * MakingASplash: He also knows several water-type moves. He ''is'' a trilobite (or a horsheshoe crab, [[MixAndMatchCritters whatever]]). |
2330 | * MassivelyNumberedSiblings: One of several kabuto cloned from a fossil kabuto who died in the middle of egg-laying. |
2331 | * MeaningfulName: Cheirurus, his superhero name, is drawn from a genus of trilobites. Out of universe, his name is drawn from yet another [[Series/SpiderManJapan Spider-Man actor, Shinji Todo]]. |
2332 | * StableTimeLoop: In-universe he received his name by adopting the superhero identity of his future son, a kabutops nicknamed Oscar, owned by the Arachna-Guy of an alternate future timeline. |
2333 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: [[RunningGag As with Tobi and Drake]]. As an omnivorous scavenger, he is the only one who can eat pizza without any initial ill-effects. |
2334 | |
2335 | !!Felicia the female Alolan Meowth |
2336 | A meowth adopted by Tommy one day when he was doing stakeouts in the docks of Castelia City. So far, she spends most of her time with his [[KindheartedCatLover Aunt April]]. |
2337 | ---- |
2338 | * CatsAreMean: Lightly threatens/jokes about eating fish pokémon without hesitation. |
2339 | * CatsAreSnarkers: The most aloof of Tommy's pets. |
2340 | * FemaleFelineMaleMutt: To Norville, the furfrou who acts as the Petersen-Sanchez family dog. |
2341 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite her personality, she's still very loyal and affectionate to the Petersen-Sanchez family. |
2342 | * PsychicPowers: She is a Delta, and has both Dark and Psychic typing, which she uses to her advantage. She reads minds and [[NoSell blocks other's ability to do so]]. |
2343 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: The only female pokémon in Tommy's roster. |
2344 | |
2345 | !!Sturgess Fossil UMNH 24 the male Runerigus |
2346 | |
2347 | Also known as Dome Fossil 24, he is a happy-go-lucky Runerigus loaned to Tommy by the Unovan Museum of Natural History. He is, in essence, the ghost of a dead kabuto inhabiting his fossil and the petroglyph it was embedded in. He was one of the many Yamasks that once roamed the museum. |
2348 | ---- |
2349 | * ArchEnemy: Quickly made himself one for Igor. He had beaten the intruder when the latter attempted to rob the museum. |
2350 | * ArtisticLicenseBiology: In-universe, he threatens to ''eat'' Igor, when ghost types do not typically need to eat mortal food. |
2351 | * CaptainErsatz: A whole reference to the various roles of Creator/RobinWilliams with the noted exception of the Genie from ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}''. By all accounts, he is apparently doing this on purpose. |
2352 | * TheGenieKnowsJackNicholson: He's hung out in the Museum enough that he's developed an encyclopedic knowledge of human pop culture and peppers his vocabularly with it. |
2353 | * LargeHam: Loud, fast-talking and very bombastic. |
2354 | * LukeYouAreMyFather: Shinji's. His fossil was found to be connected to another dome fossil that was dislodged from it, which revealed that he and another Kabuto were [[OutWithABang in the process of mating]] when they died. The contents of his mate's ovipositor yielded a surprising amount of cloneable DNA, and from that batch of clones came Shinji and his siblings. |
2355 | * IdentityAmnesia: He and the other Yamasks at the museum took awhile to realize their true identities. After a while, he realized that he was the dome fossil from the Sturgess Exhibits. Not helping that the museum ended up mixing remains around sometimes, which made identifying which remains they were the ghosts of difficult. |
2356 | * OutWithABang: He and his wife died from an underwater landslide while procreating. |
2357 | |
2358 | [[/folder]] |
2359 | |
2360 | [[folder:Tracer (Alternate Timeline)]] |
2361 | [[AC:Tracer's Pokémon]] |
2362 | ---- |
2363 | * DistaffCounterpart: A lot of them are of opposite genders to his OU team. |
2364 | * ThemeNaming: 11 of 12 members of the team are named after video game characters. The odd duck out is named for [[{{Pun}} rather obvious reasons]]. |
2365 | |
2366 | !! Aloysius the Emboar |
2367 | ---- |
2368 | * PlayingWithFire: Part Fire type. |
2369 | |
2370 | !! Buster the Gliscor |
2371 | ---- |
2372 | * DishingOutDirt: Part Ground type. |
2373 | * NotQuiteFlight: Glides using air currents. |
2374 | |
2375 | !! Mike the Lucario |
2376 | ---- |
2377 | * BloodKnight: Loves a good battle. |
2378 | * CompanionCube: A Riolu doll named Jodie, or more accurately the deranged iPhokex within said Riolu doll. |
2379 | * {{Foil}}: To Audrey. Possesses developed and well-rounded battle skills and is most powerful with physical combat due to his Dream World ability, but has effectively non-existent abilities with Aura outside of battle. |
2380 | |
2381 | %%!! Pascal the Floatzel |
2382 | |
2383 | !! Nathan the Druddigon |
2384 | ---- |
2385 | * {{Fanboy}}: To a certain shiny Mienfoo from Dragon Spiral Tower. |
2386 | * DishingOutDirt: Thanks to knowing Earthquake. |
2387 | |
2388 | !! Vesta the Ampharos |
2389 | ---- |
2390 | * DistaffCounterpart: To Shaun. |
2391 | * ShockAndAwe: Electric type. |
2392 | |
2393 | !! Kyle the Salamence |
2394 | ---- |
2395 | * SpearCounterpart: To Nadia. |
2396 | * PlayingWithFire: Uses a number of Fire type moves. |
2397 | * {{Flight}}: Is a very good flier. |
2398 | |
2399 | !! Kit the Marowak |
2400 | ---- |
2401 | * DishingOutDirt: Ground type |
2402 | |
2403 | !! Kammy the Blastoise |
2404 | ---- |
2405 | * DistaffCounterpart: To Iggy. |
2406 | |
2407 | !! Leana the Honchkrow |
2408 | ---- |
2409 | * DistaffCounterpart: To Sonny. |
2410 | * MafiaPrincess: Is the daughter of the leader of one of Celadon's largest Murkrow murders. |
2411 | * {{Flight}} |
2412 | |
2413 | !! Guy the Unfezant |
2414 | ---- |
2415 | * LeeroyJenkins: His main strategy in battle, which actually causes his death in the OT when he picks a fight with a Liepard and loses. |
2416 | * SpearCounterpart: To Courtney. |
2417 | * {{Flight}}: Part Flying type. |
2418 | |
2419 | !! Zoe the Sandslash |
2420 | ---- |
2421 | * DistaffCounterpart: To Gene. |
2422 | * DishingOutDirt: Ground type |

2424 | [[/folder]] |
2425 | [[folder:Vierr Qualtis]] |
2426 | -->Played by: @/Eskay64 |
2427 | |
2428 | A Holonian native who discovered his own potential for all four of the Auric Spectrum, Vierr joined the J-Team as an excuse to get away from home as well as to hone his own abilities. |
2429 | ---- |
2430 | * ButtMonkey: Due to his scruffy appearance and lack of mastery of his powers, he's the butt of many a joke in- and out-of universe, such as his "Terrible Wizard" nickname. |
2431 | * HiddenDepths: Has a great interest in mythology and lore despite appearing BookDumb at first glance. |
2432 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Not exactly the most kind person at times, but he means well when it matters. |
2433 | * KissingCousins: Defied, he had a bit of a crush on Alyssa but it faded upon finding out about their direct relation, though they're still pretty close. |
2434 | * MasterOfNone: Despite having abilities of all four Auric types, he is not very skilled with any of them and prior to meeting the J-Team could only make wisps. He's been working to make himself more of a JackOfAllStats, however. |
2435 | * ThrowTheDogABone: As of the Hoenn-2 arc, he's finally caught the Stantler duo who have tormented him for years thanks to some accidental help from Soul Arrow. |
2436 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Crewe, as they constantly snipe at one another but are close friends anyway. |
2437 | * YinYangBomb: Has Auric, Psychic, and both Ghost and Dark Obscuric abilities. |
