These are the side characters that appear in the HGS Lore, which is covered by its two RP threads Convergence (CVG) and Another Side, Another Story (ASAS). While they mostly stick to themselves, some of them have made the nominators' adventures exciting in one way or another. Others prefer working in the background, but contribute to the threads' lore in their own little ways.

Panem

The Capitol

    President Snow 

President Coriolanus Snow

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/president_snow_hgs.jpg
"Hope, it is the only thing stronger than fear."

The president of Panem, Snow rules over the Capitol and its contained districts with an iron fist.


  • Actually a Doombot: In Convergence, he deploys robotic versions of himself called Snowclones in the Arena to ensure that he doesn't die when he's not fighting as a tribute. Averted however after Katniss and Peeta destroyed them all, and Billy dumped the real him alongside Coin to the Arena.
  • Adaptational Villainy: Downplayed since while he was a ruthless president like he was in canon, he was Flanderized into a greedy, petty Corrupt Politician who killed anyone who opposed him and also children For the Evulz. He also slashed the budget of his former properties such as the Database Library and the Science Center willy-nilly and forced every nominator to pay $1 billion in total for the damages caused by the First Timewrecking in Reboot Season 60. All the nominators assumed that he asked for $1 billion each since they knew how greedy and corrupt he was. His characterization was lampshaded by Dave:
    Dave: Snow's always been an utter bastard, but back then he's one to keep his word, and he's not one to lie. At worst, he speaks in Exact Words. He also never do [sic] things for the hell of it; pragmatism was his big game back then.
  • Asshole Victim: Considering that he has committed numerous atrocities in the Capitol, most people would rejoice whenever he dies, over and over again.
  • Butt-Monkey: It's unknown if even the veteran nominators know just how many times he's died, but if one counts the deaths of his Snowclones in CVG, he has died at least 150 times in the Reboot Timeline. When he's not being killed by the tributes, they often mess with him instead, much to his chagrin.
  • Exotic Entree: He publicly announced that he likes eating exotic creatures for dinner, including those kept as pets, prompting 6k1 to leave Mimi the Starble with Fluttershy before she left for her Underground vacation, hoping that Snow wouldn't find Mimi there.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: Following Alma Coin's body swap with Alma Madrigal in the previous season, Snow ended up switching bodies with Snow White in Season 265 for unknown reasons.
  • Malicious Misnaming: President "Evil Santa" and "Snowball" by Ichigo Montoya in Convergence. Power was also tempted to call him President "Snowfall" after the Scrooge Expy in "A Hearth's Warming Tail", but she felt that Twilight and/or Starlight might take offense to that.
  • President Evil: He was the tyrannical president of Panem before he was overthrown towards the end of CVG.
  • Resurrective Immortality: A possible explanation of how he regularly comes back to life only to die again is that he possesses the power to resurrect himself. That, or that was actually a Snowclone that was killed, or he comes back as a ghost or zombie.
  • Show Within a Show: In Convergence, he has a "children's" show called "Future of Panem", which is just propaganda about killing everyone who opposes him.
  • They Killed Kenny Again: Ever since he entered the Arena in OT Season 155, he regularly gets killed off over and over again. By the time of OT Season 181, the Hunger Games' resident President Evil along with his clone get nominated as two separate tributes, they both get killed in the same season, and then he gets kidnapped by Hades in the Underworld. Not that anyone has a problem, though, considering how much of an asshole he is.
  • Took a Level in Badass: Tired of being constantly beaten up by the tributes, he stepped up his game in Reboot Season 40 and won, despite Susie somehow killing him while he was, for lack of a better term, still alive.note 
  • Villain Decay: Was one of the most prominent villains in CVG, even teaming up with Valecor to declare a special holiday that encourages freedom among villains to enact their evil plans unopposed, but after Snow was overthrown, he was reduced to the tributes' punching bag, as he was in the Original Timeline.

    Alma Coin 

Alma Coin

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/president_coin_hgs.jpg

The former president of District 13. Ever since her supposed death, Coin has become an obscure, unseen figure only heard of in rumors among President Snow's crews.


    Paylor 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/commander_paylor_9.png

A commander in President Coin's force, she becomes the president after an emergency election. In Reboot Season 70, she announces her plans to replace the real Hunger Games with a literal sim, which is eventually implemented in Season 258.


  • Big Good: Compared to her predecessors, President Paylor is a benevolent president. Under her, Panem becomes freer and more developed in a relatively short amount of time. She even implements the Simulator as a compromise over abolishing the Games completely due to its popularity across the Multiverse.
  • Cult of Personality: Has one centered around Panemian presidents like her that "Archangel" Markus Hasselhoff made, though she is unwilling about it.
  • Iron Lady: President Paylor wields a lot of power as the president of Panem and she tends to deploy Peacekeepers in order to defend Panem, such as during the Giygas Crisis and the Voidlands Metroid Invasion.
  • Minor Major Character: Despite becoming the next president after Snow's second downfall, she and the Panemian government mostly work in the background, occasionally making announcements of any major changes to the Games.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hunger_games_control_room_hgs.png

The server used for storing information about the Hunger Games tributes. The server is prone to be hacked by tributes.


  • Ret-Gone: Should any of the listed tribute be deleted from the server during the season, they effectively die, as deletion from the tribute list is the equivalent of being wiped out of existence.

Katniss Everdeen

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/katniss_everdeen.jpeg

    Leonard Sutton 

Leonard Sutton

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/leonard_sutton_hgs_host.jpg
First CVG Appearance: Post 3118
First ASAS Appearance: Post 134

The official host of the Multiversal Hunger Games, he is a showman who can switch styles depending on the season he hosts.


  • Arbitrary Skepticism: Despite being aware of how the Arena's Magitek works, he often questions the shenanigans the tributes get into.
  • Cuckoolander Commentator: As he always switches up his hosting style every season, his commentary on the Games can become quite... entertaining.
  • Deadline News: Not even Sutton is safe from the tributes. In Reboot Season 190, for example, the Qu invaded his hosting box and threw him down from a great height. Thankfully, the Healers revived him so he could host the rest of the season, but since it took them the entire night to revive him, Gamemaker Stella took over as substitute host until then.
  • Depending on the Writer: While anyone can play as him, whoever is the host of the current season on the main thread has the most control of him in the RPs, explaining his changing hosting styles.
  • Has a Type: In Reboot Season 204, he's revealed to have a thing for white-haired royal women, but despite that, he declined the Flame Emperor's bribe of 250,000,000 Panemian dollars to let them win.
  • Leaning on the Fourth Wall: As most of his commentary is done on the main thread, his references to the events of the RPs are this.
  • The Omniscient: He knows a lot for a host, not just from his research about the tributes. He also somehow knew about Power's Embarrassing Nickname and announced it to the entire Multiverse.
  • Pungeon Master: Cracks a lot of bad puns about the tributes in his hosting.

    Julius Prophetus 

Julius Prophetus

The former Head Gamemaker of the Multiversal Hunger Games, he is an old man in his 60's who watch over the different Gamemakers that run the Games each season, as well as overseeing other aspects of it. He retired in Season 258, when the Simulator was implemented, and he was succeeded by Stella Futura as Head.
  • Meaningful Name: His surname, Prophetus, means prophet in Latin. Pretty meaningful as it follows both the Roman theme naming in Panem, as well as the nature of how a season is run and his position.
  • Past-Life Memories: He revealed himself as a survivor from the OG timeline, overseeing since the very first season there as Haymitch's successor.
  • Resurrective Immortality: Possesses this thanks to Panem tech resurrecting him every time he gets killed. It was shown when Igor killed him alongside Scroop in Season 93, only for his fellow Gamemakers to resurrect him.
  • Technologically Blind Elders: Averted. As the former Head Gamemaker, Julius had to utilize the Capitol’s latest technologies to perform various modifications to the Arena.

Snowclone Army

    As a Whole 

The President Snowclones

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snowclone_army.png

A clone army of fallen tributes developed by President Snow. They are mass produced by infusing the DNA of fallen tributes and Snow himself, and they serve as Snow's personal army for eradicating tributes who have lived for too long.


  • Badass Army: Invoked, they are advertised and presented under this image, as an elite army answering only to President Snow. In truth, they are nothing more than Mooks designed to be mowed down by any other tribute.
  • Clone Army: A clone army created by President Snow to serve under him.
  • Meaningful Name: The name "Snowclone Army" has a double meaning. Not only it is derived from the term "Snowclones", the practice of naming tropes by making puns after existing tropes, it also means that these clones are the clones of President Snow himself. In fact, the Snowclones are created by infusing the DNA of fallen tributes with President Snow's DNA.

    PSC-00 President Snowclone 

President Snowclone Model PSC-00

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/president_snowclone_psc_00.png

The very first President Snowclone ever created, PSC-00 is a perfect replica of President Snow. He is created solely with the DNA of Snow, and he becomes the basis of all the subsequent Snowclones. Debuted in OG Season 181.


  • Flawed Prototype: Being an unaltered clone, he inherits the weak, frail body of the real Snow, and he does not possess any combat skill like all of his successors have.
  • Monster Progenitor: He's the very first President Snowclone ever created, and he serves as the basis of all the subsequent Snowclones.

    PSC-01 Snowclone Soldiers 

President Snowclone Model PSC-01

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snowclone_soldier_psc_01.jpg

The standard issue army utilized in the Capitol, they are automatically nominated as NPC tributes whenever there is a lack of reserved tributes. Debuted in OG Season 247.


  • Evil Counterpart: Of the Hunger Games tributes in general. These soldiers contain the DNA and combat data of fallen tributes, which allows them to emulate a fallen tribute's behavior.
  • Expy:
    • Of the Clone Cold Assault Trooper, a specialized division of Clone Troopers equipped with cold weather gears.
    • The fact that they're rebuilt with the DNA of fallen tributes also makes them very similar to the Wolf Mutts, albeit more humanlike.
  • Faceless Goons: They never put off their helmets, perhaps for a good reason. Some of the Snowclones Soldiers are made of the corpses of group tributes, Lovecraftian creatures, or even planets and abstract concept.
  • Mooks: They're grunt units with a below average combat prowess, and it's not difficult to take down a legion of them.
  • We Can Rebuild Him: Whenever they get destroyed, they can be quickly repaired with spare parts. Given how regularly everyone nominates tributes to the field, Snow can quickly get all the spare parts to repair the clones.

    PSC-01S Snowclone Specialist 

President Snowclone Model PSC-01S

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/snowclone_specialist_psc_01s.jpg

  • Elite Mooks: The Snowclone Specialists are better equipped than their subordinates, and they are designed to serve as high-rank combatants defending President Snow's quarters.
  • Expy: Of Captain Rex, a veteran Clone Officer.
  • Guns Akimbo: They often dual wield pistols for close combat.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/psc_01t_snowclone_trooper.jpg

Recon units of President Snowclone Model PSC-01, the Snowclone Troopers patrol the field with speeder bikes. Their role is to collect data of various tributes and reconstruct them in the form of Snowclone Soldiers.

    Scientist Claire Hartmut 
First CVG appearance: Post 4229 (pre-split), Post 20 (post-split)

  • Color-Coded Speech: Her dialogue is blue to represent her dress under her lab coat.
  • Expy: Of Dorothy Ann. She's a smart blonde who likes doing research about the tributes.

The head of the Travel Department who ensures the safe travel of 6k1's tributes through the portal system.
  • Color-Coded Speech: Her dialogue is green to represent the green streak on her hair.
  • The Ghost: So far, she's the only scientist who has yet to make a physical appearance. This because she rarely gets out of her office. She finally makes a physical appearance during the rescue mission to save Psyche and the BTS ARMY from Ultra Deep Sea.
  • Meaningful Name: She's named after the peregrine falcon, the fastest bird in the world, fitting for someone who specializes in travel. Her last name sounds like "portal", which she uses for 6k1's tributes.
  • Shrinking Violet: She rarely gets out of her office because she's shy.
  • Thinking Up Portals: She summons portals for 6k1 and her tributes whenever they travel to far-off places.

Other Departments

    Scientist Hal 
First CVG appearance: Post 3958 (pre-split)

One of the scientists responsible for maintaining the arena to make sure the games don't go haywire. Is often the voice of reason among his colleagues.


  • Named After Somebody Famous: Or rather, something. Not to be confused with HAL 9000note , whom he is named after.
  • Only Sane Man: Often questions the goings-on in the Arena while his colleagues do mad science.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: His fate was left unknown after President Snow, whom he was loyal to, was overthrown. None of the other employees ever speak of him despite him trying to stop Scientist Dave from creating Valecor.

    Scientist Dave 
First CVG appearance: Post 3958 (pre-split)

One of Hal's colleagues, who dabbles in more mad science than Hal is willing to.


  • Create Your Own Villain: He created Valecor, though he certainly didn't intend on him ending up the way he did.
  • Mad Scientist: Enjoys inventing outlandish gadgets and conducting crazy science experiments.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: His fate was left unknown after President Snow, whom he was loyal to, was overthrown. None of the other employees ever speak of him despite him creating Valecor.

    Scientist Erick 
One of 6k1's scientists who was eaten by Valecor as punishment for "selling secrets to the competition".
  • Sacrificial Lamb: Was killed off to demonstrate how much 6k1 cares about her employees.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon World

The Rescue Squad

     In General 
A rescue team from Scipion's homeworld. Even before Gamechanger, they were the first ones to oppose his bloodlust and have constantly ruined his plans.
  • Best Friends-in-Law: After Aaron and June became a couple, Tokage and Alex considered dating her sisters July and August, respectively, technically making the Rescue Squad brothers-in-law, but they decided to remain friends with the Zoroarks in the meantime, although the two pairs got some Ship Tease during the ZDR Mission.
  • Freudian Trio: Aaron acts as The Kirk, Alex as The McCoy, and Tokage as The Spock.
  • True Companions: After every trials they've been through, they've become very close friends, to the point that they're like brothers.

    Aaron 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eryvmynw4amgfag_9.jpg
First ASAS appearance: Post 949

The Leader of the Rescue Squad. He's noble, but a bit naive Lucario who seeks to make the world better.


  • Arch-Enemy: With Scipion. The Zoroark hates him more than Gamechanger or anyone else, while Aaron is disgusted by the Zoroark's sadism.
  • Aura Vision: He can use his aura to see through people's minds although it's still very limited because he is not old enough to fully master it. He can also use it to telepathically locate and communicate with them.
  • Bad with the Bone: His weapon of choice is a bone made of aura he summons using Bone Rush. Depending on the size, it serves as either a sword or a spear.
  • Badass Cape: He wears one along with a hat as part of his Halloween costume, and he decided to wear it even after the holiday because his friends liked it.
  • "Brave the Ride" Plot: Got through one alongside Lucian and Power at Las Pegasus's roller coaster, not wanting to leave the former riding it alone. He ended up fainting on it.
  • Childhood Friends: With Lucian, back when they were a young Riolu and Rockruff, respectively. They're also very close.
  • Cuddle Bug: He likes hugging his friends, especially Lucian, but he often forgets that he might impale them with his chest spike (though he had since took one of Phoebe's potions to make it disappear). He even hugged Sticky (or rather, Stanford in Sticky's body) despite the latter being a cactus.
  • Dork Knight: Despite being a nice hero, he has his own silly moments. For example, he was disturbed when Muffet offered him some food baked with literal spiders and turns out to be a very bad gamer, as seen during aSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate tournament held during Bale's post-S100 party. This also applies to his romantic relationship with June, as he finds it so intense, he sometimes becomes a literal cute dork and can be unable to speak properly.
  • The Fettered: He strongly believes in justice and do his best to help people.
  • Foil: To Scipion. They're both canine leaders of their respective teams, but Aaron is a heroic rescuer who feels guilty when he fails to save others while Scipion is a ruthless killer who enjoys every second of slaughter.
  • Forgot About His Powers: Tends to forget to use his aura to read feelings and detect lies, to Scipion's frustration.
  • Guilt Complex: Whenever something really bad happens near him, he tends to take the blame for it or think that he could have done more. He blamed himself for Scipion attacking him and 6k1, and did so again after watching the Second Reboot Nominator Games (Season 100).
  • Healing Hands: He can use Heal Pulse and Life Dew to heal his allies, though they're nowhere as efficient as actual healers like Ralsei.
  • Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Lucian. Aaron really cares about him, to the point of almost being overprotective or becoming extremely angry if something happens to him. With time, he became also very protective of Oscar.
  • The Hero: Usually how he behaves. Also how he is considered back in his homeworld after his team's numerous victories against Scipion.
  • Heroic Sacrifice:
    • Even after being injured by an enraged Scipion, he eventually hold him off and begged Scipion to kill him to save 6k1 and his friends. Fortunately, Giratina managed to stop Scipion's rampage in time.
    • Almost pulled that again when he fell from a cliff with June, willing to sacrifice himself so that she would survive. Luckily, Benji the Ditto saved them.
  • The Idealist: Despite occasionally having moments of anger and hatred, he remains at large a Nice Guy who wants everyone else to be happy and the world at large to be better.
  • Intergenerational Friendship: He's in his early 20s yet is close friends with Ralsei, who's childlike but around Kris and Susie's age, who are high schoolers.
  • Interspecies Friendship: Although he is friendly towards most people he meets, he has a soft spot for Ralsei, considering the young goat a great friend.
  • Invisible Parents: He has long moved out from his parents' house and are only mentioned in passing.
  • My Sensors Indicate You Want to Tap That: His aura can detect if people have romantic feelings for another. Subverted with Power since her friendship with Ichi doesn't go beyond that despite their affections, but played straight with James, Arthur, and Nick, who kept their polyamorous relationship a secret.
  • Nice Guy: Is well-spoken and kind towards people of all kinds.
  • Painful Transformation: Had to go through one when he drank one of Phoebe's potions to turn into a perfect clone of Vinci, a Runegrigus.
  • Relationship Upgrade: While already good friend with June, especially since Lucian and Oscar developed their bond, they eventually confess to having feelings for each other by the time of the Painted Island Arc. Aaron proves to be rather nervous and silly for his first time with a girl.
  • She Is All Grown Up: Aaron has certainly evolved, both literally and figuratively, since he and Lisa last saw each other as children, and Lisa was smitten by him when they met again as adults at Lilac's Hospital.
  • Something Else Also Rises: After Aaron and June become a couple, his tail rises whenever he feels really attracted towards her.
  • Super Mode: Can Mega Evolve even without his Mega Stone through sheer determination, something only a few Pokémon from his world can do.
  • Thinking Up Portals: Can summon portals with his aura, but it takes him more energy to make portals to other universes than to local areas.
  • Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: Since Aaron is a Lucario (who is 3' 11" on average) and his girlfriend June a Zoroark (who is 5' 3" on average), she's significantly taller than him. He's still strong enough to carry her without too many problems.
  • Undying Loyalty: To his friends and loved ones, especially Lucian, Oscar, and June, though Aaron can prove to be overprotective and paranoid about them at times. Being in love with the latter, he asked the cheerful Zoroark to help him keep his head straight whenever something bad happens to one of them.

    Alex 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/alex_6_4.png
First ASAS appearance: Post 949

A wild-tempered Charmeleon. He acts as The Big Guy of the Squad.


  • Big Eater: To the point that he even forgets to share his meals. He has a soft spot for spicy food, and he eats ravenously at the table, unlike Tokage.
  • Blood Knight: He loves the thrill of battling and prefers fighting enemies with his own strength.
  • Brains and Brawn: The Brawn to Tokage's Brains, as he's the brawler while Tokage's the thinker.
  • Casual Danger Dialogue: Tends to crack jokes and other one-liners while fighting.
  • Commonality Connection: He gets along well with Susie because they both love fighting.
    • He also got along very well with August, June's sister. Both are fun-loving and big eaters.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: With Wendy O. Koopa. He got upset not just over turning into a girl, but also over her ability to summon water bubbles.
  • Foil:
    • To Onox. They're both the brawn in their respective teams, look up to their leaders, and love eating, Alex rescues Pokémon while Onox kills them. Alex is also smarter than him, and he also realized their similarities before their battle.
    • To Nick. They're both fun-loving Fire-types, but Alex is afraid of water while Nick isn't. He's also way more hot-blooded and battle thirsty than the Cinderace.
  • Hot-Blooded: Has a tendency to overreact to even minor things and charge headlong without much of a plan.
  • Mundane Utility: He can use his tail to light up dark places such as caves.
  • Never Bareheaded: He's always seen wearing his hat, even when he's forced to swim, and he doesn't like it getting stolen.
  • The Nicknamer: Likes giving his friends silly nicknames like "Lulu" for Lucian and "Kiki" for Oscar.
  • No Guy Wants to Be Chased: When Wendy Koopa has a sudden crush on him during the Las Pegasus Arc, he ends up having one of the worst moments of his life.
  • Our Dragons Are Different: Has always dreamed of evolving into a Charizard and got his wish when he took one of Phoebe's potions in her lab, albeit temporarily because he still wants to evolve the "natural" way.
  • Parental Abandonment: His father Flint, who was a Charizard and a famed rescuer, passed away before Alex met Aaron. He also never knew his mother growing up because Charizard couples leave it to one parent to raise their children.
  • Sore Loser: Was upset when Kayla, who was a Lunatone at the time, defeated him in the Pokémon tournament because he thought he could defeat her despite the type disadvantage against him.
  • Super Mode: His father handed down his Charizardite Y to him, which he can use as a Charizard when he evolves.
  • Tragic Keepsake: His cowboy hat is a handcrafted one inherited from his late father, a former rescuer.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Has a childhood fear of water, which Scipion used to his advantage when they first met by throwing him into a lake. Alex learned to conquer his fear during his training by rescuing his friends from the bottom of a pool after Reshiram and Zekrom threw them in there, too, but while he no longer freaks out at any sight of water, he's still afraid of swimming unless he's forced to. Not even switching bodies with Wendy, who can summon giant water bubbles with her magic wand, could instantly make his fear go away for good.

    Tokage 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/imageedit_5_9963550286_4.jpg
First ASAS appearance: Post 949

A calm and stoic Grovyle. He is The Smart Guy of the group.


  • Brains and Brawn: The Brains to Alex's Brawn, as he's the thinker while he's the brawler.
  • Chameleon Camouflage: His main ability, allowing him to spy on people.
  • Commonality Connection: With July, June's sister. Both are agile, watch out for their teammates/sisters, and are the more collected. Though July is more reserved than Tokage, she feels more confident in herself when he's around.
  • A Dog Named "Perro": His name is Japanese for "lizard".
  • Fragile Speedster: He is the fastest but physically weakest member of the trio.
  • Foil: To Morgan. They're both the brains of their respective teams, but Tokage plays fair and rescues Pokémon while Morgan uses underhanded tactics in combat and kills Pokémon.
  • Happily Adopted: By Proteus, who conversely lost his children before adopting him.
  • In-Series Nickname: His teammates call him "Tok".
  • Interspecies Adoption: He's Grovyle who's adoptive father's a wild Ash-Greninja.
  • Lovable Rogue: Will gladly steal others' belongings (much to Aaron's chagrin), but is otherwise a Nice Guy.
  • Parental Abandonment: He lost his family as a young Treecko and was subsequently adopted by Proteus.
  • The Stoic: Due to his past as a loner and having being raised by a wild Pokémon, he is usually very calm and does not show his emotions a lot. In one rare moment where he completely lost his cool, he swore at CAC for attempting suicide while the others were fighting a brainwashed Twilight], giving him a "Reason You Suck" Speech for it.
  • The Strategist: As the smartest member of the group he makes the plans and strategies for the team.
  • Super Mode: In preparation for Vahirom's fight, Tokage took Phoebe's Mega Evolution potion to temporarily become Mega Sceptile.

The Blue Wings/Fiery Blue Wings

    In General 
A rescue team composed of a duo. They're older than the Rescue Squad. Arthur and James eventually become a gay couple after Reboot Season 115. Afterward, they become a trio once Nick joins them.
  • Friendly Rivalry: To the Rescue Squad. They sometimes rub their accomplishments in their faces, but both rescue teams get along fairly well otherwise.
  • Meaningful Rename: The team's name changed to the "Fiery Blue Wings" after Nick was accepted.
  • Nice, Mean, and In-Between: Nick is nice, Arthur is mean, while James is in-between.
  • Noble Male, Roguish Male: Prior to Nick's inclusion. James is a wealthy, true gentleman while Arthur is very quiet and comes from a poor family.
  • Polyamory: They entered one after Arthur caught wind of James cheating on him with Nick so that all three of them would be happy together. It was rough at first since Arthur was jealous of Nick since they had to "share" James, but the two eventually fell in love as well, making all three of them a "throuple".

    James 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/600px_818inteleon_9.png
First ASAS appearance: Post 1684

An Inteleon and the leader of the team. He's a classy, rich gentleman and is very confident.


  • Agent Peacock: A flamboyant Inteleon who's obsessed with how he looks (to Arthur's chagrin), but is also a competent rescuer.
  • The Beard: He flirted with women to cover up the fact that he's gay, fearing that his reputation would be tarnished if he's outed. It's only after Arthur confronted him about a sudden kiss right before their death in Season 115 that he is forced to come out to him as gay, and he even realizes his true feelings towards the Decidueye.
  • Blue Blood: His ancestors were rich aristocrats who were also rescuers. That's why he is so proud of himself and he behaves like one.
  • The Charmer: Being a true gentleman and a boaster, he is very popular among female Pokémon, but he never got as far as sleeping with them. This is all just a cover-up to hide that he's gay, and he believes that his reputation might be tarnished if he's outed.
  • Commonality Connection: With fellow rescuer, Henry the Flygon from June's homeworld. Both are well-spoken, honorable, but also very confident, hammy and very regarding of their reputation.
  • Cultured Badass: A fancy Inteleon who lives in a mansion, yet can certainly put up a fight.
  • The Dandy: The first thing he does before embarking on missions is to always tidy himself up and make sure he looks good. Arthur is easily annoyed by this because he thinks it's a waste of time. Despite this, James taunted Goliath after slashing his shell by telling him that looks don't matter in battle since his shell was just armor.
  • Fearless Fool: Zig-Zagged. His huge confidence often causes him to get into trouble. He shares this trope with Henry during the Beach City and Freddy's haunted mansion arcs when they rode intense attractions and take the haunted house's extreme path, scaring them in the process, though they were brave enough to face their fears.
  • Gentleman and a Scholar: He's cultured, intelligent, and likes to be chivalrous.
  • Insufferable Genius: Genuinely smart and strong but very full of himself and tends to put others down due to his ego. He especially likes to mess with Alex.
  • Invisibility Ink: He can cloak himself with water to turn himself invisible.
  • Irony: Despite being gay, he didn't think of Shelley, a female Golisopod, being attracted to another woman when he discussed with Arthur and Nick the Love Triangle brewing between her, Tenn, and Henry. He thought that Shelley and Tenn were competing for Henry's affection when Shelley was crushing on Tenn, who started dating Henry after the "Henry Pines" Mission.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Despite his huge ego and looking down on others, he's still a nice guy that cares about people, especially his teammates. Being Aaron's rival also doesn't prevent him to appreciate the Lucario.
  • Non-Idle Rich: He's already wealthy but still works as a rescuer. He even declined the money for completing the mission at Great Canyon, wanting to bask in the fame instead.
  • Our Ghosts Are Different: He became a ghost during Reboot Season 151 after having his body destroyed by Takane Yamashiro. However, he didn't turn into a Ghost-type Pokémon like Clyde after he was resurrected by Persephone.
  • Painful Transformation: Screamed in agony as Prince Henry slowly transformed him into a copy of himself with Evil Phoebe's scepter. Thankfully, James turned back to normal after the scepter was destroyed.
  • Prone to Tears: Because of his hidden sensitivity, he tends to cry like a Sobble at times.
  • Screams Like a Little Girl: Does this whenever he's surprised or really scared.
  • Something Else Also Rises: His tail turns stiff whenever his boyfriends give him surprise kisses.
  • Tuxedo and Martini: Usually, he wears a navy blue bow to look like his namesake. He even has a collection of the eponymous novels in his mansion and can wear other similar types of fancy navy blue accessories like a scarf or a collar with a tie.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: He has arachnophobia, to the point that even a tiny Spinarak scares him to the core. He's also squeamish towards bugs, which freaked him out when he had to help Aaron rescue Lucian and Wednesday in SR388, which was infested with Metroids. It took him a while to tolerate and then befriend the Bugtrio, especially Henry, because of his fear.

    Arthur 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dec.jpg
(Art by ladie-bug)
First ASAS appearance: Post 1684

A quiet Decidueye and James' longtime partner. He is cold and stoic.


  • The Alcoholic: He drinks a lot, beer especially. Somehow, it's very hard for him to get drunk.
  • Aloof Archer: He's the typical no-nonsense archer.
  • Anger Born of Worry: Afer James returned from the SR388 Mission, Arthur pinned him down and angrily demanded where he went off to because he didn't tell him beforehand. In James' defense, it was an urgent mission, but Arthur was still understandably worried about him.
  • Anti-Hero: He's not above doing unsavory actions or being merciless if he is against an irredeemable villain, should they contribute to a perceived greater good. He is also extremely rude when he is not silent.
  • Baldness Angst: He hides his bald head under his hood and only allows his boyfriends to look at it.
  • Cold Sniper: He's a very skilled archer and will not hesitate to kill if necessary. And unlike many Decidueyes, he can be extremely violent in physical fights.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: Was jealous of James hanging out with Nick, suspecting that the former was cheating on him. He turned out to be right when Clyde showed him his visions of what was going on between James and Nick during their mission at the Great Canyon, and he blamed Nick for "seducing" James away from him.
  • Deadpan Snarker: The most sarcastic member of the team who often snarks at his teammates' actions.
  • Everyone Has Standards: As snarky as he is, he wouldn't mock others with severe injuries, like Tenn's burned throat that rendered her mute.
  • Good Is Not Nice: He clearly doesn't hesitate to hurt or insult allies when he feels like it. He's also way ruder towards James than Nick is, although they are still getting along well.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He's not afraid to threaten others when provoked, but he'll compliment fighters who are just as good as him.
  • Humble Hero: Unlike James, he doesn't really like being in the spotlight or receiving rewards for his deed.
  • Informed Loner: Allegedly not social yet he doesn't mind socializing with others.
  • Only Sane Man: He has the most common sense in the team and often has to knock it into James.
  • Sir Swears-a-Lot: As the rudest member of the team, he swears liberally whenever he's angry, even if there are kids around.
  • The Stoic: He hardly displays emotion of any kind. Not so much when he's extremely provoked, like when he lashed out at Vahirom for planning to destroy the various Pokémon Worlds to purge all evil.
  • Straight Gay: Downplayed since he never cared about this before, although his actual feelings were subtle, like being grumpy when James approached girls.
  • Tsundere: Was this towards Nick after he entered his relationship with James. He didn't like Nick at first and threatened to kill him for "stealing" James from him, but he eventually admitted that he liked him, too.
  • Undying Loyalty: Towards James and Nick, even though he's not always nice to them.
  • Violently Protective Girlfriend: Gender-inverted and gay example: he will absolutely end those who dare hurt James or Nick, especially the former.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: While stoic and hard to impress, Arthur tends to freak out whenever close to a Mimikyu.

    Nick

Art by Nowykowsky
First ASAS appearance: Post 4705

A Cinderace who joined the Blue Wings later in the story.


  • Foil: To Alex. They're both fun-loving Fire-types, but Nick isn't afraid of water while Alex is. He is also more cool-headed than the Charmeleon.
  • Gym Bunny: Literally, as he's a gay rabbit who's into sports. He even confessed his love for James, and he reciprocated, deciding to keep his affair with him a secret from Arthur until he was caught. Nick then entered a polyamorous relationship with James and Arthur so that they would be happy together.
  • Lovable Jock: Generally, Nick is a very sporty Pokémon who likes football and is laid-back. In fact, he used to be the head of a sports club before he joined the rescue team.
  • Mellow Fellow: He's very optimistic, but he's not as easy to anger or as stupid as Alex or Onox.
  • Nice Guy: He's usually calm, chilled, and playful.
  • Precision F-Strike: As the calmest, most carefree member of the team, Nick doesn't swear, but he once said "crap" upon learning that Silas still had his powers even after being sealed away on the Painted Island.
  • Puppy-Dog Eyes: He can do this to mess with people, convincing them to do something, or just for fun

The Cosmic Crusaders

    In General 
  • Bounty Hunter: They exclusively take Bounty Hunting Jobs so they can actively fight back against any threats.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: They and the Silver Sirens were supposed to be major rescue teams associated with Tabby, like how the Rescue Squad and the Blue Wingsnote  are associated with Scipion, but they disappeared without explanation.

    Charlotte

Art by IPlatArtz
First ASAS appearance: Post 1838

A Hattrem who is the leader of the Cosmic Crusaders and Cassiopeia's good friend.


  • The Fake Cutie: Despite her looks, she can quite a vicious opponent.
  • Hot-Blooded: Gets angry and carried away often when it comes to people like Ribbons.
  • Monstrous Cannibalism: She and her mother Gertrude like hunting other Pokémon, to Cassie and August's shock.
  • Sweet Tooth: Her favorite food is chocolate and she likes a lot of sweet stuff.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Has a fear of Ghosts, given her weakness to them, so she was tormented by a Dusclops when she was rescued by Luna and Cassie.

    Cassiopeia 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1200px_197umbreon_4.png
First ASAS appearance: Post 1838

Charlotte's teammate, whom she first met when she was rescued by her and Luna as a young Hatenna.


  • Affectionate Nickname: Charlotte and the others normally call her "Cassie".
  • Dark Is Not Evil: She may be a Dark-type, but she's a hero. When she was an Eevee, she described herself as a hero who was a "Dark-type at heart" since she helped Luna evolve into a Delcatty by stealing a Moon Stone from a store for her.
  • Only Sane Man: Tries to keep their Rescue Squad intact and not let Charlotte get carried away.

    August

First ASAS appearance: Post 2534

A Luxio who is the most recent addition to the Cosmic Crusaders team.


    Luna 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/delcatty301.png

First ASAS appearance: Post 3457 (flashback)

A Delcatty who was the former leader of the Cosmic Crusaders. She died before the events of ASAS.


  • Femme Fatale: Charlotte describes Luna with this exact trope since she used her Cute Charm Ability to seduce her foes. Her looks were so naturally good-looking, even the girls wanted her.
  • Good Is Not Soft: According to Charlotte, Luna was sweet and kind to her allies, but ruthless and seductive to her enemies.
  • Nice Girl: Not only was she caring about her teammates, she also offered to help Cassiopeia evolve into an Umbreon so she can join her team since according to Cassie's sister, Pokémon Rescue Teams can't have two Normal-types as core members. In return, Cassie helped her evolve into a Delcatty by stealing a Moon Stone from a store for her.
  • Posthumous Character: Before the events of ASAS, she tried capturing one of Scipion's unnamed minions for the bounty on his head without telling the other Crusaders first, but they later discovered her bloodied body when they stepped in to help her. The Crusaders keep a picture of her in their base and do their best to stay bold in her memory, especially Cassiopeia, who knew her since the two were young Pokémon. They're also angry that they failed to avenge her because their rival Ribbons, the leader of the Silver Sirens, killed the minion ahead of them.

Other normal Pokémon

    Lucian 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lycanroc_dusk_by_kufoo_dbj15x6_fullview.jpg
Art by Kufoo
First ASAS appearance: Post 1475 (in a flashback as a Rockruff), Post 1552 (present day as a Lycanroc)

A Dusk Lycanroc and Aaron's Best Friend. He works at the Expedition Society's library.


  • Actual Pacifist: He absolutely hates any kind of violence and even hates fighting at all. As such, he doesn't know how to properly fight, so he wouldn't even try to fight back if he's attacked.
  • Affectionate Gesture to the Head: He likes having his fluffy mane petted, especially in the neck fluff.
  • Affectionate Nickname: "Lulu", by Alex. Also "Luchie", by June.
  • Anthropomorphic Zig-Zag: When he and Oscar went into hiding from Dark Stanford in the Looniverse, they learned to stand on two legs to avoid detection.
  • Ascended Extra: Started out as a supporting character who stayed behind when Aaron went out on missions, but over time, Lucian learned to be brave and outgoing (though he still gets nervous sometimes) and even befriended Oscar. He has significantly gotten more "screentime" ever since.
  • Bad Liar: He's bad at lying because his feelings don't match up with his words, like when he was frustrated with Oscar being forced to work for Dark Stanford and wanted to come up with a plan to save him, even if he'd be pushing himself too much.
  • Beware the Quiet Ones: He may be a meek Lycanroc, but push his buttons and he'll growl at you. And when possessed and forced to use his actual fighting capabilities, he is almost as strong, if not more, than Scipion or Aaron in their normal forms.
    • He felt incredibly frustrated upon not being able to help Oscar leaving Dark Stanford's side, thinking it was unfair that he couldn't stay with June.
    • He also was very upset when Knox refused to talk with him and Oscar about Colby's death.
  • Childhood Friends: He has known Aaron ever since he was a Rockruff while the latter was a Riolu. Lucian sees Aaron like a big brother and a role model.
  • Cuddle Bug: He likes hugging his best friend Aaron because he's fluffy. After befriending Oscar, he also tends to do that a lot to him.
  • Commonality Connection: With fellow Pokémon Oscar, hence why they became great friends. Both are shy and bad at fighting. Both were also friendless in their childhood save for Aaron for the Lycanroc, and June and her family for the Thievul. Finally, both have uncommon hobbies with Lucian being passionate about technology, simple gadgets or science in general, and Oscar about costumes.
  • Cowardly Lion: Despite his fears, he'll rescue anyone who's in danger, like when he saved a young Fennekin from Scipion when the latter went on a killing spree in a nearby village. He's also a thrill seeker if he takes his pills for his heart and is with a very close friend, like when he braved the rollercoaster with Aaron at Las Pegasus.
  • Cowardly Sidekick: Although he works with rescue teams and is willing to help, he prefers not to be on the battlefield.
  • Demonic Possession: Was possessed by the remains of a Spiritomb when he was studying its Odd Keystone, causing him to turn into a Midnight Lycanroc. This happened again during Scipion's duel with Aaron during the latter's rescue mission, except that this time, he was possessed by a full Spiritomb.
  • Distressed Dude: Him being kidnapped alongside Kris by Scipion's allies kickstarted the Pokémon rescue arc.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: With Oscar during June's cheer-up party for Stanford.
  • Friendless Background: As a Rockruff, he was rejected by other young Pokémon for his cowardice and Aaron was his Only Friend growing up.
  • Furry Reminder: He sometimes licks Aaron on the face as a sign of affection, just like real canines.
  • Gadgeteer Genius: He's The Smart Guy and a great inventor, being passionate about technology. He liked to build wooden gadgets before technology hit the PMD!World and even obtained a laptop.
  • Game-Breaking Injury: One of his hindlegs was fractured during the battle against the Metroid Queen, but while Lisa repaired it the next day, it's permanently weaker than his other legs.
  • Grew a Spine: After being rescued from Scipion, he learned to stand up for himself and socialize with others. He still gets scared sometimes, but he has been panicking less often. It culminates with him trying to save Oscar from Dark Stanford, kickstarting their arc.
  • Heroic BSoD: His worst scare happened when he went on a dangerous mission in Planet SR388 to destroy Oscar's bracer and free him from Dark Stanford's control. Oscar also did his best to comfort him during the treacherous journey, but Lucian got severely injured and traumatized by an Omega Metroid, and then blacked out. Aaron was extremely worried about him when he arrived to rescue him, but thankfully, he consoled him when he broke down crying over lying to him about the mission as well as risking Oscar's life and Colby's sacrifice.
  • Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Oscar after hanging out at Las Pegasus and Whispering Pines, and then helping him escape Dark Stanford's clutches and surviving Planet SR388 with Oscar.
  • Hollywood Heart Attack: This happens when his panic attacks are very intense because of his weak heart, so he takes pills that he made to help stabilize it. He also tries not to think too much about it because intense trauma could give him a fatal heart attack.
  • Incredible Shrinking Man: When he and Oscar were running away from Lyric, they took some of Phoebe's potions to try powering themselves up, but because they weren't labeled, they accidentally took Minimize potions that temporarily shrank them down to 2 inches.
  • Injured Limb Episode: He went through one after the SR388 Arc, where his left back leg got broken by an Omega Metroid.
  • It's All My Fault: He and Oscar blamed themselves for Colby's sacrifice when the latter held off Dark Stanford while they escaped his lab.
  • Like Brother and Sister: While he's not as close to June as Oscar is to her, Lucian looks up to her like she's his big sister.
  • Mission Control: Volunteered to be one for the 2nd Voidlands trip.
  • Mistaken for Romance: Like with Ichi and Power, Oscar and Lucian were assumed to be dating by Flotina, to their embarrassment.
  • Nervous Wreck: Gets panic attacks whenever he gets frightened and clams up whenever scary people try to talk to him. Clyde's gang even had to assure him that they just wanted a casual conversation with him even if they kidnapped him.
    Clyde: Being paranoid like that not only [would] drop the mood for everyone here, but it is also not good for your own health.
  • Platonic Declaration of Love: Gave one to Oscar while they switched bodies, assuring him that he'll do his best to protect him after escaping Dark Stanford's lab. Deep down, he doesn't want to pursue a romantic relationship because he feels intimidated by it.
  • Precision F-Strike: Normally doesn't swear, but did so a few times when he called out Knox for his petty grudge against him and Oscar over Colby's sacrifice.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: In the rare occasion where he gets really angry, his eyes glow red.
  • Security Cling: He gets easily frightened, so he often forms a death grip on Aaron or Oscar.
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: The Sensitive Guy to Oscar's Manly Man.
  • Shrinking Violet: He's very shy towards strangers and believes that he is worthless in battle. He's also not used to being in the spotlight like when June congratulated him and Wednesday after their kart race at Las Pegasus.
  • Starting a New Life: To escape Dark Stanford, he and Oscar escaped to the Looniverse. There, he is disguised as Axl, a tall alligator.
  • Super-Speed: Temporarily and accidentally gained the ability to run very fast uncontrollably after drinking one of Phoebe's potions. He used that under Oscar's guidance to try fighting off Phoebe's evil counterpart.
  • Toon Physics: He gains cartoony movements when hiding in the Looniverse. Because he stayed in it for the whole day, these powers stuck with him when he was tricked into going to Icicle Mountain to rescue Squishy.
  • Undying Loyalty: To Aaron and Oscar, to the point that he insists on helping the former in dangerous missions despite his warnings because Lucian, out of worry, doesn't want Aaron to leave him behind.

    Proteus 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/greninja_by_splashbrush_d8znriu_pre_0.jpg
First ASAS appearance: Post 1552note 

A wild Greninja and Tokage's adoptive father.


    Flint 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/600px_006charizard_mega_y.png
A Charizard and Alex's father. He's already dead by the time of ASAS.

    Lilac's hospital 

Lisa

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lisa_by_xous54.png
Art by Xous54

A female Servine and the doctor in chief of the place.


  • All Love Is Unrequited: Has a crush on Aaron, her childhood comrade though now she doesn't mind that he doesn't return her feelings. She also doesn't mind seeing him with June because he wasn't her type, anyway.
  • Bad Boss: Many of her employees are outright terrified of her and what she can do when angered. She even threatens to fire the cleaners for missing just one tiny spot.
  • Childhood Friend: Downplayed. Aaron was one of the few that got relatively nice with her back when they were kids.
  • Hospitality for Heroes: In the Rescue Squad's second appointment with her, she signed a contract with the Expedition Society to offer her services to them for free.
  • Insufferable Genius: On one hand, she is good at fighting and very smart. On the other hand, she can be nasty, sarcastic and arrogant.
  • Letter Motif: Her name, her right-hand man's one, and the hospital name all start with "L", just like she wanted.
  • Lovable Alpha Bitch: She may be a rude perfectionist that keeps complaining about the slightest misstep, but she still does her job as a doctor well.
  • Non-Indicative Name: June's aunt Lilac does not own the hospital despite what the name implies, so the identical naming was likely a coincidence.
  • Schoolyard Bully All Grown Up: To Lucian back when they were kids. Her anger issues at failing tests with him caused her to lash out at the shy Pokémon, though she stopped when Aaron befriended him and told her about his panic attacks.

Leon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/scrafty_256x256.png

A lazy Scrafty. He's Lisa's personal assistant.


  • Aloof Leader, Affable Subordinate: Lisa is extremely strict, contrasting completely with Leon's laid-back attitude.
  • The Creon: Despite being under someone as tyrannical as Lisa, he has no problem doing everything she wants.
  • The Slacker: Lisa somehow keeps him because he is too lazy to argue with her and proved to be somehow competent as a bodyguard and an assistant, but that doesn't change the fact that he likes doing nothing.

    Gemino 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/0601klinklang.png

A Klinklang. They are The Jailers of the Expedition Society HQ, and later move to New Pines.

  • Benevolent A.I.: Although they are not good at displaying emotions, Gemino is still benevolent, helping rescue teams if necessary and locking up people for them.
  • Enemy Scan: Invoked. One thing is sure, they claim they analyze and scan people whenever they meet or listen to them.
  • Meaningful Name: "Gemino" is derived from "Gemini, the Twins", fitting for a Pokémon composed of two gears.
  • Multiple Head Case: Unlike Yip-Yop or Haban-Arrow (A Scovillain with Haban, the green head, being villainous), both of whose heads always argue with each other, Gemino's heads act as one.
  • No Biological Sex: Like all other Klinklangs, Gemino is "genderless" and doesn't have sex organs.
  • Robo Speak: Gemino talks like a computer, without using contractions. Given that they have two heads, they also tend to finish each other's sentences.

    The Black Stars 
A rescue team. Unlike many others, that one is rather violent.

Nobuo

Nobuo, an Hisuian Samurott, is the leader of the team. He became a rescuer after his defeat. See the villain page for more info on him.

Nina

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/1673989039805891020.gif

A stoic Cacturne, and the other member of the Black Stars.


    Pedro and Irene 
First ASAS appearance: Post 10,716

A couple of Pokémon that assist rescue teams.

Tropes Applying to Both

  • Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Pedro is almost thrice as tall as his wife Irene, the former being 5' 11" and the latter being 2' 4" on average.
  • Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy: Pedro's Feminine Boy to Irene's Masculine Girl.
  • Rescue Romance: How they met. Irene saved Pedro from a Bisharp that tried stealing from him, and they grew closer ever since.

Pedro

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/0914quaquaval.png
A Quaquaval, and an Old Friend of James.
  • Camp Straight: He's just as campy as James, yet he's married to Irene.
  • Commonality Connection: Both he and James are proud, flamboyant, yet well-mannered show-offs.
  • Dancing Royalty: As expected from a dance teacher. Pedro even taught James some poses during their younger years.
  • Gratuitous Spanish: Because of his Spanish inspiration, Pedro sometimes speaks Spanish. He also generally has a Spanish accent.
  • Neat Freak: Even moreseo than James. Mud is enough to make him uncomfortable and he cares a lot about his hair.
  • Remember the New Guy?: His first appearance has him and James reuniting because they knew each other since high school. This is because Paldean Pokémon like Pedro weren't encountered in Scipion's PMD World until Paldea was officially opened to the Games.

Irene

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/0959tinkaton.png
A Tinkaton, and Pedro's wife. She is a blacksmith, using her big hammer to work.
  • Cute and Psycho: Like many of her species, she may be cute, but is deceptively violent to any "bad guys", especially against Corviknights.
  • The Lad-ette: Contrasting her classy, clean husband, Irene isn't afraid of getting dirty (being a blacksmith), and she's much cruder than him.
  • Vocal Dissonance: Despite being female, Irene has a low, grumpy voice, almost sounding like a stereotypical dwarf.

Notable legendaries

    In General 
  • Adaptational Gender Identity: While most of the legendary Pokémons are genderless, they usually refer to themselves as male or female according to their wishes.

    Giratina 
See here.

    Mewtwo 
See here.

    Lugia 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/249lugia_xy_anime.png

A legendary Pokémon that controls the wind and is linked to the sea and the night. Unlike many of his peers, he is actually a fun-loving guy.


  • God Is Inept: His aloof personality tends to make him do mistakes with great consequences. Some stern legendaries like Rayquaza view him as an incompetent fool for this.
  • The Mentor: To the Blue Wings.
  • Pungeon Master: He actually considered joining the Blue Pun Clan at one point, but quickly had to forget about it because of his status as a god.
  • Shipper on Deck: Noticed James's affections for Arthur during their training and was amused. He also sensed that something romantic was going on between the Bugtrio but left it up to them to find out what. It turned out that Tenn had feelings for Henry while Shelley likewise had feelings for Tenn.

    Reshiram 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/600px_643reshiram.png

The Pokémon of truth, also linked with light and twin of Zekrom.


  • Gentle Giant: He is one of the kindest, if not the kindest of the legendaries.
  • Sink or Swim Mentor: Alongside Zekrom for Aaron and the rest of the Rescue Squad. For Alex's training, they threw his friends into a lake to teach him to overcome his fear of water.
  • Verbal Tic: He tends to add "in truth" a lot in his sentences. Fitting for one that embodies truth.

    Kyurem 
See here.

AR World Characters

     In General 
These characters are all part of AR (Alternate Reality) Universes involved in the Legion of Doom's plotline.
  • Alternate Self: Due to the Multiversal Convergence affecting their worlds, these characters are considered alts, even if they look identical to the originals.
  • Expy: The concept of AR World Characters is based on that of Kamen Rider Decade, they even go through a Multiversal Convergence. Fittingly enough, Decade himself soon appears to help them out.

The legendary 10th Heisei Rider, he is a Multiversal Traveler who gets involved in the Multiversal Convergence Arc, helping out the heroes of the storyline, due to his previous experience with Convergences.


  • Ascended Extra: Only made two cameo appearances in Convergence (Although one of them was setting up a plot point for later on the story) but has far more of a role in Another Side Another Story.
  • Awesome, but Impractical: He upgraded the Neo-Decadriver to allow him to access the full power of all the other Riders' final forms, but he can only use it effectively in battle for a minute, as it drains his strength completely.
  • Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Makes short work of Thanos with the Kuuga/Rising Ultimate cards and powers.

     Narutaki 
First ASAS Appearance: Post 2311
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/narutaki_5.jpg
Onore Dikeido!note 

A mysterious person who travels the Multiverses, and Kamen Rider Decade's nemesis.


  • The Cavalry Arrives Late: He comes into action in Another Side Another Story right after the defeat of the Legion, rendering his effort to help useless.

Bucrates' Faction

    In General 
A third-party group led by Barreled Scholar Bucrates who plot to stop Dark Bale's and his group's plans. They hide in the AR Sentai World within a rebuilt Org Matrix
  • Evil Versus Oblivion: So far they oppose Dark Bale's forces so as to stop them from summoning "Otaru", which is a deity that could destroy everything in existence for good if left to be resurrected. They themselves aren't exactly good guys, however.

    Barreled Scholar Bucrates 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bucratesrevengemode.png

The leader of the faction and a former member of Balban who was resurrected at some point prior and plots to stop Dark Bale's plans.


  • Blackmail: Like he did to Hyuuga/Black Knight II he uses this method to keep Rouki in line, knowing fully well the loyalty of the Duke Org is unstable at best; threatening to banish him back to the afterlife if he dares go against his orders too much.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: Makes a quick appearance as a hooded figure in the last moments of the first part of Dark Bale's arc well before his appearances in the flesh.
  • Evil Versus Evil: His goal is to help defeat Dark Bale and take control of his forces for his own ends.
  • Heel–Face Revolving Door: Technically had a change of heart at the tail end of Gingaman, but he acknowledges he's gone back to his evil ways by now.

First ASAS appearance: Post 9067

The former member of the Oni Tribe Org and a malevolent yet fair-spirited wolf warrior who aids Bucrates in his plans to stop Dark Bale's forces.


  • The Dragon: Bucrates' most active and powerful lieutenant.
  • Enemy Mine: Joins forces with the Nominators to defeat Raven Beak, but doesn't care much about helping them out beyond it, almost getting them killed when he thinks they're cornered the first time.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: He's disgusted by the presence of the dinosaur fighting rings in the Jurassic World Universe and makes sure to have the one he had to visit to retrieve a Devil's Splinter fall into chaos by letting the dinosaurs kill the spectators and criminals inside.
  • Fighting from the Inside: As with his appearances in Gaoranger, his hosts fight back against his influence, this time he's more aware of it and is enraged by Meta Knight's resistance to his influence.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: Belittles Bale's group after saving them from Eye Guy, but some of his criticisms towards aspects of theirs aren't wrong per se, it's mainly Lucina who silently acknowledges this.
  • Power Degeneration: Exerting his power too much causes his body to degenerate over time and fall apart. Bucrates can stave that off and is unbothered when he sees Rouki return from his mission with major decay on several parts.
  • Spanner in the Works: Him nearly killing Bale successfully almost foiled Dark Bale's plans until Darrgon saved Bale's life and undid his work.
  • Undying Loyalty: Was brought back by Bucrates and aims to help him loyally until he has repaid his life debt to the old man.
  • Villainous Rescue: Saved Bale and his team from Eye Guy when they were cornered.

A pair of defectors from Dark Bale's legion, they join up with Bucrates to help him stop the demented Dark Nominator and his group's plans.


  • Defector from Decadence: Defected from Dark Bale's group because they found out what they truly were planning. Groundain defected long after his sister did, however, as he initially was unaware of what was going on.
  • History Repeats: Skydain defected due to hearing from Scorpius, the Alien Temperor who himself had defected from Dark Bale's group, about the group's goal to unleash Otaru. Groundain would do the same when he was sent to find and kill Scorpius, ironically.

    Space Ikadevil 
A former scientist under Dark Bale who now aids Bucrates so as to stop his former faction.

  • Adaptational Intelligence: Melba's appearances in the Ultra Series franchise haven't shown their kind being capable of speech like this one.
  • Everyone Has Standards: He and Melba obey Rouki unquestioningly for the most part, but draw the line at senselessly killing their own sort-of allies; they even go as far as defying him when Bale reminds them of it.

    Melba 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/melba.png
An avian kaiju awakened from Planet Nemesis who joins Rouki as his seocnd Demon Beast.
  • Adaptational Intelligence: Golza's appearances in the Ultra Series franchise haven't shown their kind being capable of speech like this one.
  • Defeat Equals Friendship: Of sorts. While not friends, he does ally with Rouki after being defeated, recognizing him as a strong entity to ally with.
  • Everyone Has Standards: He and Golza obey Rouki unquestioningly for the most part, but draw the line at senselessly killing their own sort-of allies; they even go as far as defying him when Bale reminds them of it.

Treatlings

Treatlings are food that are seemingly brought to life from an unusual meteor shower. While some are just scared, some could come off as hostile.

     General Tropes

A destroyer ship crossed with a tuna fish. She's a friendly shipgirl that is more ship than girl (at least for now). Likes Japanese cuisine and seafood. She first bonded with Kine.


Power Stroke's Family

    General Tropes / Tropes Applying to Other Family Members 
  • Ancient Keeper: Power's paternal grandfather Old Justice is the family record keeper, having memorized the old book of genealogical records by heart. However, this is offset by his aging memory, so he sometimes can't easily remember them.
  • Big Applesauce: One of Power's cousins moved to Manehattan with her family, and their teenage daughter is as stuck-up as one would expect from a city pony.
  • The Clan: Power's family is as large as Applejack's, with many of its members scattered across Equestria, and they have reunions every Hearth's Warming. They're also rich enough to provide funding for her art school.
  • Clashing Cousins: One-sided example: Power has at least two cousins who enjoyed bullying her as a filly, like when they dared her to go on the rollercoaster just after she ate.
  • Color-Coded Characters: Power's maternal side is generally warm-colored while her paternal side is generally cool-colored. Her immediate family is a mix of both while in-laws are colored differently from the side of the family they're married into.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: Unlike Miranda, who had her first major appearance in CVG, the rest of Power's family made a minor cameo when during their Hearth's Warming reunion in EP 2019. Some members eventually had proper appearances later in the RP.
  • Kids Love Dinosaurs: Five Star and Rainbow Spice's toddler son Wild Pepper loves pretending to be a dinosaur and playing with dino toys, and even got a personalized dino book for Hearth's Warming. Pepper was excited to meet Stef the Stegosaurus and her babies when he and his family had to temporarily move in with the Altfords under Dark Stanford's threat.
  • No Name Given: The four foals who were introduced in the subplot involving catching the prankster aren't named, being only referred to by their race and color.
  • Posthumous Character: Power's paternal grandmother, the former matriarch of the family, died overexerting herself with a powerful spell when the former was just a baby. Her death devastated everypony, and Old Justice moved to the local Silver Shoals the day after her funeral. He felt lonely as he grew old in the retirement home, with only Miranda's letters to cheer him up, but he still visits his family every Hearth's Warming despite the constant pain of being reminded of "Nana"'s death.
  • Remember the New Guy?: When Miranda dressed up for Bale's post-S100 party, she mentioned to Power that she wore the same dress to the former's daughter's wedding six years before that, who's implied to have a family of her own. Said daughter used to live in Power's home when Power herself was a foal, but eventually moved out for college. This is why Power barely remembers her in the present.
  • Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome: Wild Pepper was one month old when he first made a cameo in the family's Earth Prime 2019 Hearth's Warming reunion, but suddenly aged up to a toddler when he was formally introduced when the family had to go into hiding from Dark Stanford. Granted, Multiversal time flows at different rates across universes, but it's still odd for a foal to age that fast offscreen, even if Equestrian ponies age at the same rate as humans.
  • Unicorn: Majority are this pony race, but there are a few pegasi and earth ponies in the mix, who are usually related by marriage such as Rainbow Spice and Wild Pepper, Five Star's earth pony husband and son, respectively.

    Miranda Rights 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/miranda_rights_9.png
"Of course, I'm making Pow-Pow's favorite!" (image made by Troper No. 9001 with Pony Town)
First CVG appearance: Post 1352note 
First ASAS appearance: Post 23
Headcanon voice: Mrs. Cake

Power's paternal aunt, who's a rich lawyer who has raised her since she was a filly. She's overprotective of her niece, but has since trusted Ichigo with visiting them anytime.


  • Affectionate Gesture to the Head: Likes tousling Power's mane just to tease her.
  • Affectionate Nickname: She's called "Mira" by her family.
  • Afraid of Blood: She can't stand the sight of blood, so she fainted when Himiko Toga extracted Vandal's blood in Reboot Season 106.
  • Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: She tends to embarrass her niece in front of others, especially Ichi, such as when she called her by her foalhood nickname "Pow-Pow" in front of him before Power's Reboot Season 61 watch party with him and Ralsei; and when she showed him Power's baby pictures just before the 2nd Reboot Nominator Games (Season 100).
  • Arbitrary Skepticism: Often questions the logic of the Games, despite being from a universe where magic is commonplace.
  • Color-Coded Speech: Her dialogue is teal as it's close to her niece's blue.
  • Color-Coded Wizardry: Her magic aura's gold in contrast with her niece's silver.
  • Control Freak: She makes plans for everything and doesn't like it when they're ruined, but she's willing to put them on hold during tough times, like when Power mourned the loss of her clone Pointy during Reboot Season 60 while she was preparing the house for the watch party the following season.
  • Cool Aunt: She has certainly raised her niece well despite all the challenges that come with it, and she's just as friendly as her when it comes to getting along with the others.
  • Family Theme Naming: Both she and her brother Fair Trial, who's a law professor, have a law theme in their names.
  • Hidden Depths:
    • Likes Coltrean drama since she's invested in serious plots, especially if they're about criminal cases. She also collects Coltrean figurines.
    • She also took an interest in Power's talent for art, even finishing her paint-by-numbers kit with her niece for the former's birthday.
  • Meaningful Name: The Miranda Rights is the statement given by the police to criminal suspects, reminding them of their right to silence and the right to a lawyer before their questioning in court.
  • Mundanger: Amidst all the supernatural horrors that happen in the Arena, her worst fear is losing her niece to people who think she's worthless, as shown in her nightmare by Valecor when she witnessed Power being killed by her nominator friends for that. In fact, she cried so hard when she saw Power die in the Bloodbath of the 1st Nominator Games (OT Season 100) and immediately stopped watching.
  • My Beloved Smother: She just wants to keep her niece safe, but she goes overboard by requiring others to ask permission before they enter their house, letting Power call her whenever there's danger, setting a curfew that she be home before dinner, advising her to lock her bedroom door at night, and making her spill every last detail about her adventures.
  • Nephewism: She has raised Power ever since the latter was a filly due to her parents' busyness, to the point that she became something of a second mother to her beloved niece. Power still lives with her, but is nonetheless allowed to make her own decisions since she's an adult.
  • Offscreen Breakup: When Miranda talked about motherhood with Heart and Persephone at Bale's post-S100 party, she offhandedly mentioned that she divorced her husband and that she's glad not to see him again, implying that their marriage wasn't the best.
  • Open-Minded Parent: Despite her overprotectiveness, she allows her niece to make her own decisions, and she also doesn't mind her being a fan of the Multiversal death match. She did get concerned upon hearing about Power crying over Psyche's death in Reboot Season 58, though, and she and Soothing Heart advised her to stop participating altogether after hearing about her trauma in the 2nd Reboot Nominator Games.
  • Rules Lawyer: Literally when she oversaw 6k1 and Twilight Sparkle's Monopoly game during Bale's post-S100 party.
  • Scales of Justice: Her cutie mark is an open scroll with the justice scales inside, representing her talent in law.
  • Shipper on Deck: She always knew that Trial and Heart were perfect for each other and used to tease them about it in high school.
  • Squish the Cheeks: Couldn't help but squish Ralsei's fluffy cheeks during the S61 watch party, much to both his and Power's chagrins.
  • Straight Man and Wise Guy: The Wise Girl to Heart's Straight Mare. Miranda likes serious things and is level-headed while Heart likes amusing things and often has her head in the clouds.
  • Supreme Chef:
    • She can cook various dishes, both local and international, even researching about recipes from other worlds. She learned to cook after Power was born, and she's helping out with Five Star and Rainbow Spice's restaurant, which they opened around two years before the S61 watch party.
    • She also thought of putting up a cooking school in the Arena, hoping to replace Scipion's, which was a trap, but decided against it because she's not a nominator and has other responsibilities.
  • Trust Password: "Cheese quesadillas", which Power used with her to confirm that it was really Miranda who was picking her up from school.

    Fair Trial 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fair_trial.png
"Pow-Pow... if there's any danger, please call me immediately." (image made by Troper No. 9001 with Pony Town)
First ASAS appearance: Post 2506note 

Power's father and Miranda's younger brother who's a law professor and the town judge. He imposes strict rules in the household, but is understanding of his family's needs.


  • Accessory-Wearing Cartoon Animal: He wears a gray-and-white necktie.
  • Beware the Nice Ones: Like his youngest daughter, he will get angry if one pushes his buttons.
  • Big Fun: Is said to be chubby and is a fun-loving father.
  • Big Little Brother: He's One Head Taller than his older sister Miranda.
  • Boyfriend-Blocking Dad: Miranda mentions that he was initially disapproving of Five Star dating Rainbow Spice after the former's two previous breakups. Trial also wasn't approving of their dream restaurant, and an argument between him and Star caused her to run away from him, but she came back and reconciled with him the next day.
  • The Bus Came Back: He and Heart were last seen telling Star and Moon the story of how they met while Power was out training at Billy's mansion, but they returned long after that when Stanford summoned them to Eye-Sicle's lair to evacuate them following Dark Stanford's attack.
  • Childhood Friend Romance: How he and Heart got together. They were next-door neighbors as foals, and they started dating in high school after winning a musical competition together. They then had to separate four years into their relationship to study for their careers, but reunited after graduation and eventually got married.
  • Color-Coded Speech: His dialogue is bold blue to indicate that he's Power's father. When he got mutated by Blood Moon during his rampage, his dialogue turned evil blue.
  • Color-Coded Wizardry: His magic aura is bronze.
  • Embarrassing Nickname: "Fairy", his wife's pet name for him, which he thinks is "too girly" for him.
  • Family Theme Naming: Both he and Miranda Rights, who's a lawyer, have a law theme in their names.
  • Gentle Touch vs. Firm Hand: Trial's the Firm Hoof to Heart's Gentle Touch, since he's fiercely protective of their daughters while she calms them down and ensures their wellbeing.
  • Good Parents: Despite his busyness, he has certainly raised his children well.
  • Hidden Depths: Likes rock music and is good at playing guitar, and even has a music room in his house.
  • Horn Attack: Like his youngest daughter, he uses his horn as a stabbing weapon to compensate for lacking an earth pony's physical strength.
  • In-Series Nickname: Ichi calls him "Mr. T", and Heart once jokingly called him "Iron Will" because the latter's loosely based on the former.
  • Meaningful Name: Every person has the right to undergo a fair and impartial trial by a judge before being given their due punishment.
  • Papa Wolf:
    • While he's understanding of his family's needs, he imposes strict rules in the household. He's not afraid to put his hoof down whenever his children get into a fight. He also requires Power to call him immediately if there's any danger.
    • Towards the end of Bale's post-S100 party, Scipion, who was temporarily de-evolved into a Zorua, turned back into a Zoroark. Trial threatened to stab him if he tried harming Power, then demanded her to leave early, much to her protests. He was called out for this by his family since the others would take care of Scipion if he wreaks havoc at the party. Giratina also advised Trial to let Power decide if she wants to go home, for she's grown-up and thus knows the consequences of attending it.
    • Ichi compared him to Bryan Mills, another fiercely protective father, by remarking that Trial was willing to "go full Liam Neeson" for his family after seeing his protective instincts flare up for himself.
    • When the entire family went into hiding in Belissima's realm, Trial went on the lookout for intruders, not wanting to lose anypony, especially his daughters and grandson, to them.
  • Pink Girl, Blue Boy: He's a blue stallion while his wife's a pink mare.
  • Plot Allergy: He's allergic to nuts, so Five Star used a spell similar to Rarity's gem-finding spell to remove the Hearts and Hooves Day chocolates she knew had nuts in them.
  • Puppeteer Parasite: He's victim of this trope along with Stef, an alternate Stanford, when they both got infected by Blood Moon disguised as Kelby. While he acts perfectly normal, Blood Moon can take control of him at any time, speak to them in his mind, and even mutate them as a last resort.
  • Sadistic Choice: Protective of his family as ever, he tried to convince Blood Moon not to let Dark Stanford and Raven Beak hurt his family. The corrupted Chozo accepted, but in exchange for Power and/or Ichi instead.
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts: When they were younger, he and Soothing Heart used to be just as affectionate with each other as Ichi and Power are with the petting and cute nicknames. And even in the present, they're not afraid to show their affections in front of their kids, though they don't mind it.
  • Stern Old Judge: He's not just a law professor at the local university, but also the judge of the local court. He takes his job seriously by scrutinizing the plaintiff and defendant before passing judgment on them, but he was tricked several times by rogue Changelings into pleading them innocent.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: His youngest daughter's like a female version of himself, inheriting his short black mane, blue coat, and brown eyes. She also inherited his tendency to flare up when provoked.
  • Sweet Tooth: Enjoys stuffing his face with dessert, much to his wife's chagrin.
    Heart: I've been trying to get him to lose weight, but he just can't help it!
  • When You Coming Home, Dad?: He and Heart were too busy to take care of Power as a filly, so they left her with Miranda whenever they went to work. They also hired a nanny to tend to her sisters, and when they were older, Five Star would watch over Moon River while their parents were out. Despite that, Trial and Heart still did their part in raising their kids.

    Soothing Heart

"You're going to get dehydrated from all the crying, sweetie!" (image made by Troper No. 9001 with Pony Town)
First ASAS appearance: Post 2436note 

Power's mother and Miranda's sister-in-law who's a doctor. She does her best to maintain happiness in the household, but tends to be lost in thought.


  • Affectionate Nickname: "Hearty", her husband's pet name for her.
  • The Bus Came Back: She and Trial were last seen telling Star and Moon the story of how they met while Power was out training at Billy's mansion, but they returned long after that when Stanford summoned them to Eye-Sicle's lair to evacuate them following Dark Stanford's attack.
  • Cheery Pink: A pink-coated unicorn with a cheerful personality and matching pink dialogue.
  • Childhood Friend Romance: How she and Trial got together. They were next-door neighbors as foals, and they started dating in high school after winning a musical competition together. They then had to separate four years into their relationship to study for their careers, but reunited after graduation and eventually got married.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: She often gets lost in thought and forgets or drops her things. Miranda wonders how she's still a doctor despite her clumsiness.
  • Color-Coded Wizardry: Her magic aura's mint green.
  • Gentle Touch vs. Firm Hand: Heart's the Gentle Touch to Trial's Firm Hoof, since she calms their daughters down and ensures their wellbeing while he's fiercely protective of them.
  • Girls Like Musicians: Fell for Trial when he was practicing his guitar for a school's musical contest and sang a duet with him during it. They then went out on their first date after winning.
  • Good Parents: Despite her busyness, she has certainly raised her children well.
  • Headbutt Thermometer: Played with: She used her magic and touched her horn with Trial to check his temperature. It's unknown if she does this with her other patients since touching horns is sometimes seen as an intimate gesture.
  • Hidden Depths:
    • Likes old-timey cartoons, which she used to watch in the cinema back in the day.
    • She was also a singer before committing herself to studying medicine.
    • Additionally, it's implied that she's a good swimmer, which was passed down to Power.
  • Meaningful Name: She soothes her patients after healing them, and her cutie mark's a heart inside a green circle.
  • The Medic: Played with. While she's a doctor, her magic can't heal injuries. Instead, she uses a soothing spell to calm her patients after their treatment, and it has helped in stopping Power's anxiety attacks as a filly.
  • Pink Girl, Blue Boy: She's a pink mare while her husband's a blue stallion.
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts: When they were younger, she and Fair Trial used to be just as affectionate with each other as Ichi and Power are with the petting and cute nicknames. And even in the present, they're not afraid to show their affections in front of their kids, though they don't mind it.
  • Sleepyhead: Often dozes off at inconvenient times, like when her daughter told her friends about her bonding moments with Ichi and while watching Reboot Season 102 with the other guests before the pre-party meeting for Bale's.
  • Straight Man and Wise Guy: The Straight Mare to Miranda's Wise Girl. Heart likes amusing things and often has her head in the clouds while Miranda likes serious things and is level-headed.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Her second child Moon River's a loonier mini-version of herself, inheriting her brown mane and pink coat.
  • When You Coming Home, Dad?: She and Trial were too busy to take care of Power as a filly, so they left her with Miranda whenever they went to work. They also hired a nanny to tend to her sisters, and when they were older, Five Star would watch over Moon River while their parents were out. Despite that, Trial and Heart still did their part in raising their kids.

Entities

The World of Infinite Creations — Three Entities

    In General 
Three mysterious and extraordinarily powerful entities who lurk behind the scenes. They all have heavily implied that there is more to creation than is known to exist.

    Genesis 
The Entity of Light and Terminus' counterpart. She had been trying for ages to find and defeat Timewrecker, but had always failed.
  • Arch-Enemy: To Terminus. Timewrecker was also one in her backstory until she managed to enlist the help of several nominators to help her defeat him for good.
  • 11th-Hour Ranger: After a foreshadowing, she appears in person to help dispose of Timewrecker once and for all.

    Terminus 
See his entry in the Villains page.

    Nomnus Statera 
The Entity of Balance, who is searching for Terminus and Genesis. They serve as a third wheel in their fellow entities' clash.
  • Ambiguous Gender: Nomnus is described as being neither male nor female, as if gender distinction is a useless matter to them.
  • The Bus Came Back: Reappears during the events of Reboot Season 125 after a lengthy absence.

Others

    The Overseers

Friends/Allies of Eye-Sicle and/or Stanford

    The Greens (and Gloria) 
First ASAS appearance: Post 4015

The country family who moved from the country to Big City. Pulled from their home by Chip Whistler in a revenge scheme, they are currently hiding out alongside Gloria in the Artisan homeworld in the Dragon Realms.


  • Animal Talk: Stanford, Miss Ball, and Kenny were able to communicate with the family dog Phoenix while looking for Nancy, due to also being animals (albeit more anthropomorphic ones).
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: Tilly is one of the few who narrowly avoids being affected by Wanda-as-Cleo's out of control Soulstorm despite also being at Eye-Sicle's lair when it occurred, but Cricket was not as lucky, ending up switching bodies with Magnus. Naturally, the hyperactive Cricket has no problems being a dragon and does not appear to even having a problem staying as one until it's made clear to him what's at stake if the group fails to save Wanda-as-Cleo.
  • Friend to All Living Things: Tilly, as in her source material, even to some of the more unusual animals and creatures that pass through Eye-Sicle's lair.
  • Mythology Gag: Cricket and Gloria continue to volunteer at a coffee shop in the Artisan homeworld (this one being run by Gavin instead of Ms. Cho).
  • Never Mess with Granny: Gramma Alice, per the norm. Many of the times the Dragon Realms are visited, she is shown spending most of her time in the Peace Keepers homeworld preparing to face-off with Chip.

    Kay's Group 
First ASAS appearance: Post 4015

A group of Mushroom Kingdom creatures who took up residence in an abandoned farm not far from Eye-Sicle's Lair, led by a blue Birdo named Kay and a white Yoshi named Tay. Other members of their group include Micro-Goomba Flea, Fire Piranha Plant Vincent, Rex Mitzi, and Sledge Bro. Moosey. She and the others first encounter Stanford's gang when the Greens and the Plantars briefly hide out with them from Chip and Grime. Afterward, Kay and the others move into the lair and begin interacting with tributes in Eye-Sicle and Stanford's stead when they aren't available at the lair, and occasionally going on adventures with the team.

Out of the group, Kay, Mitzi, and Vincent have participated in HGS seasons (S164, S171, and S180* respectively).

General Tropes

  • Mook–Face Turn:
    • Kay was originally a member of Wart's forces, though she was clearly a fundamentally good person who only did her job because she had to. As such, it didn't take Kay long to defect to Kelby and Tay's side when given the chance. She has since not only become one of their closest friends, but she and Tay are also a couple.
    • While Flea and Vincent have no stated affiliation with Bowser's army, Mitzi and Moosey were both training to join said army before going off on their own after becoming sick of bullying from other trainees (Mitzi for her ditzy, neurotic personality and clumsiness and Moosey for being a female Sledge Bro), which later lead to them meeting and joining Kay's group.

Kelby

Kay

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kay_hgs_v_avi.png
(art by kablammin45)

  • Accessory-Wearing Cartoon Animal: Along with her usual Birdo bow, Kay wears a necklace that was a gift to her by Tay shortly after her Heel–Face Turn prior to the events of ASAS. Unfortunately, it spontaneously explodes and is destroyed during her run in S164, which leaves her absolutely crushed until Tay tells her not to worry about it.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: With Roy Koopa during June's cheer-up party for Stanford.
  • Sneeze of Doom: Has a sneezing fit during her first visit to Eye-Sicle's Lair, causing a barrage of eggs to shoot out of her mouth and cover June in smashed eggs.
  • Stuff Blowing Up: In Reboot Season 164, Kay's necklace randomly exploded, taking her life. She was bummed after the season because it was a gift from Tay.
  • Valley Girl: She has, you know, some like serious shades of this, girl. Albeit mostly in her speech patterns.

Tay

  • Affectionate Nickname: His girlfriend Kay calls him "babe".
  • Canon Character All Along: In a sense: He turns out to be his home universe's Stanford counterpart (and thus a potential target of Dark Stanford).
  • Mission Control: Being an alternate Stanford, he can watch over the lair and monitor missions whenever the original Stanford and/or Eye-Sicle is out.
  • Odd Name Out: Not counting Dark Stanford, he's one of the few alternate Stanfords whose name doesn't begin with "S" or has the suffix "-ford", the others being Curry and Trevor.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: His full name is Taylor, but his close friends just call him "Tay".
  • The Smart Guy: He easily understands how Stanford's inventions within Eye-Sicle's lair work. It turns out to be for good reason, as he is one of Stanford's many alternate universe counterparts.

Flea

Vincent

Mitzi

Moosey

    Dragon Realms Residents 
Due to their world (specifically, the Reignited version) being the one where the Greens and the Plantars are hiding out, the residents of Eye-Sicle's Lair make frequent visits to the Dragon Realms and vice-versa, with some of the residents participating in Hunger Games seasons.
  • Alternate Universe: The differences between Spyro's and Cynder's respective universes are lampshaded when they're nominated in Reboot Season 181, and Cynder quickly discovers that this isn't her world's Spyro while Spyro himself fails to recognize Cynder (but feels that he should have recognized her anyway).
  • Adaptation Expansion: Given their very brief appearances in canon, some of the older dragons' personalities and backstories are expanded a bit. For example:
    • Delbin is a slightly cowardly Gentle Giant and good friends with Magnus.
    • Magnus, though still the jolly Big Fun warrior he is depicted as in the Reignited trilogy, is hinted to get upset when he is helpless to help someone, as shown in Reboot Season 183 when he gets distraught when Azizi stumbles off his podium before the season starts and explodes.
    • Ajax is shown to be a bit accident-prone.
    • Azizi is reinterpreted as a Daredevil expy with Super-Senses, and handily beats Eye-Sicle in a fight.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: Many of the older dragons were caught up in the chaos caused by Cleo's Soulstorm in the Freaky Friday arc, most notably Jared swapping with Conan (and having trouble handling Conan's shield and lance at first), Cricket Green swapping with Magnus (with Cricket naturally being excited to be a dragon), and Azizi with Darnell the Delphox (causing Azizi to be able to see again for the time being). Almost every dragon in Dream Weavers (as well as Hunter, who was unlucky enough to be there at the time, getting swapped with Kosoko) also gets swapped when the brainwashed Wanda-as-Cleo is unleashed upon the homeworld.
  • I Just Shot Marvin in the Face: How Magnus ended up out of Reboot Season 129; he attempted to use a lightsaber against Udyr and Clanker, only to accidentally decapitate himself with it. He lasts just long enough to lampshade his stupidity before expiring.
  • Literally Shattered Lives: During Reboot Season 129, Delbin was non-fatally cut into several pieces by Pigwidgeon and shipped off to Deathstroke, who then put him back together.
  • Only Sane Man: Spyro was one of the few non-swapped individuals who accompanied the search for Wanda during the Freaky Friday Flip arc.
  • Related in the Adaptation: Nothing in canon suggests they are related or not, but here the baby dragon Ba'ah is shown to be Lateef's son.
  • There Are No Therapists: Averted with Delbin; following his rather rough debut season it's mentioned in passing that he has been in therapy with fellow Artisan Dragon Argus and he gets very anxious when other residents of the Dragon Realms take part in the Hunger Games.

    Oscar 

Oscar "Wednesday" Pactolus

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wednesday_thievul_whabp_v_c.png
(art by kablammin45)
First ASAS appearance: Post 5255

A Thievul friend of June's from June's PMD universe, who ended up becoming a petty thief back in his home universe after he and June parted ways as children. He is first met working for Dark Stanford (though only because he wanted to fit in somewhere) before he befriends Lucian, who helps him escape from having to work for him.


  • Affectionate Nickname:
    • His Childhood Friend June often calls him "Ozzy".
    • Given his closeness to Lucian, Alex has taken a liking to calling Oscar "Kiki".
  • All of the Other Reindeer: He was bullied in school for his interest in costume design, so 11 years later, he joined the 'Brijes to try fitting in.
  • Anthropomorphic Zig-Zag: When he and Lucian went into hiding from Dark Stanford in the Looniverse, they learned to stand on two legs to avoid detection.
  • Childhood Friends: With June, who still calls him "Ozzy" even after he went by "Wednesday" during his time as a thief. They also bonded over being bullied for having interests beyond what is expected for their respective genders.
  • Commonality Connection: Bonded with Lucian over being outcasts and having interests beyond what is expected for their respective species, with Wednesday being interested in costume design and Lucian being interested in tech.
  • Embarrassing Nickname: Back in elementary school, Ercole and his cohorts teased him for getting his nose stuck in a book about costume design and called him "Nosey".
  • Forced into Evil: He only worked for Dark Stanford because he wanted to fit in, and he doesn't want to hurt his friends, especially June. He even regrets having to return to him after reconnecting with her at Las Pegasus and their home universe.
  • Forced Transformation: Was turned into a Pecha Berry by Evil Phoebe during the battle in Danjor Island. When she turned him back to normal, he was terrified of being rendered unable to move, speak, or sense anything around him.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: With Lucian during June's cheer-up party for Stanford.
  • Grew a Spine: Alongside Lucian in the SR388 Arc where he managed to save and comfort the Lycanroc multiple times despite both being nervous.
  • Harmless Liquefaction: Went through that after drinking Phoebe's Acid Armor Potion on Danjor Island, causing poor Lucian to Faint in Shock in the process. This helped her decide which potion to use to free Lyric from his bracer much later in the story.
  • Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Lucian after hanging out at Las Pegasus and Whispering Pines, and then escaping Dark Stanford's clutches and surviving Planet SR388 with Lucian. He feels at peace whenever Lucian is happy.
  • Incredible Shrinking Man: When he and Lucian were running away from Lyric, they took some of Phoebe's potions to try powering themselves up, but because they weren't labeled, they accidentally took Minimize potions that temporarily shrank them down to 2 inches.
  • It's All My Fault: He and Lucian blamed themselves for Colby's sacrifice when the latter held off Dark Stanford while they escaped his lab.
  • Master of Disguise: He has a talent in making disguises, and Lucian made him a costume machine to make his work easier. After permanently gaining Toon Physics from his extended stay in the Looniverse, he can instantly put on disguises that completely hide his true form.
  • Meaningful Rename: Oscar went by "Wednesday" when he joined a band of thieves when he was a teenager and has stuck with it for the rest of his life, but he's fine with others calling him by his birth name. And after having his bracer destroyed, he requests his friends not to call him "Wednesday" anymore because he now associates it with that very dark period of his life. However, he still has good relationships with most of his previous thief comrades.
  • Mistaken for Romance: Like with Ichi and Power, Oscar and Lucian were assumed to be dating by Flotina, to their embarrassment.
  • Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal: Dark Stanford almost atomizing him resulted in him and Lucian trying to find a way to remove his bracer and free him from the fox's grasp. He succeeded by having the Metroid hatchling suck all the bracer's energy to destroy it.
  • The Nose Knows: As a Thievul and a former thief, Oscar has an excellent sense of smell.
  • Platonic Life-Partners: June is his closest friend and he can't bear to live away from her.
  • Psychic Link: Established one with June by undergoing Persephone's ritual, which connected their souls and by extension, their minds.
  • Real Men Wear Pink: While he used to be bullied in school for it, he has a strong passion for costume design. He even requested Lucian to build a costume machine for him as a gift.
  • Reluctant Warrior: While he's learned to stand up for himself, Oscar doesn't like to fight unless absolutely necessary. He prefers making disguises for his allies.
  • Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: The Manly Man to Lucian's Sensitive Guy. He's fittingly the one wearing a mustache.
  • Starting a New Life: To escape Dark Stanford, he and Lucian escaped to the Looniverse. There, he is disguised as Bull, a small alligator.
  • Toon Physics: He gains cartoony movements when hiding in the Looniverse. Because he stayed in it for the whole day, these powers stuck with him when he was tricked into going to Icicle Mountain to rescue Squishy.
  • Undying Loyalty: With Lucian after the Lycanroc helped him escape Dark Stanford, and he promised him that he'd never leave him behind.

    June's family 

Darnell

An old Delphox with a Scottish accent. He is June's grandfather.

  • Mellow Fellow: Despite his advanced age, he is very kind and calm.
  • Raised by Grandparents: After his daughter April died and her husband Lyric left, Darnell was devastated until he witnessed June, July, and August hatching. He raised them like his daughters and he cares dearly about them.
  • Sympathy for the Devil: When the Hisuian Samurott Nobuo refused to surrender at the end of Kyurem/Evil Phoebe's arc, Darnell was the one to talk him out of it, knowing what it's like to lose someone dear.

July

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/july_zoroark_whabp_v_c.png
(art by kablammin45)

One of June's sisters. She is the most reserved and level-headed of the three Zoroarks.

  • Arbitrary Skepticism: She's the slowest among her sisters to accept the absurdities of the Multiverse, despite being a Pokémon herself.
  • Beautiful Singing Voice: Even though she can have stage fright, July has a great singing voice.
  • Big, Thin, Short Trio: She's skinny while her sisters June and July are short and fat, respectively.
  • Big Sister Instinct: She may be only a few seconds or minutes older than June, but she's always on the lookout for her. She even decided to accompany her and Aaron to Hanubia to rescue those captured by Raven Beak and Dark Stanford.
  • Commonality Connection: With Tokage. Both are agile, level-headed and watch out for their teammates/sisters.
  • Family Theme Naming: She and her sisters are named June, July, and August while their late mother was named April.
  • Identical Twin ID Tag: She wears a blue bobble while her sisters June and August wear purple and green ones, respectively to tell each other apart, aside from their different body types.
  • Master of Illusion: Like her sisters, she can summon illusory copies of herself or others to confuse her opponents.
  • Playing with Fire: She can use Flamethrower by imagining herself as a dragon and breathing fire on her foes. As all Zoroarks can learn this, she taught this to her sisters in Ghavoran.
  • Positive Friend Influence: July is a downplayed Nervous Wreck being more down-to-earth than her sisters. She's shyer, constantly tries to watch out for them, and she can panic more easily than them. Ever since she met with Tokage, the Grovyle helped her with this and July feels more confident in her skills when he's around.
  • Same-Sex Triplets: June, July, and August are all-girl triplets.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Among her sisters, she resembles their late mother the most.

August

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/august_zoroark_whabp_v_c.png
(art by kablammin45)

One of June's sisters. She is the laid-back Big Eater of the three Zoroarks.

  • Affectionate Nickname: Her friend Alex calls her "Auggy".
  • Big Fun: She's the fat one among her sisters and is just as fun-loving as June.
  • Big, Thin, Short Trio: She's fat while her sisters June and July are short and skinny, respectively.
  • Commonality Connection: With Alex. Both are Big Eaters, easy-going and fun-loving. They even got the same nicknames for Oscar and Lucian.
  • Family Theme Naming: She and her sisters are named June, July, and August while their late mother was named April.
  • Identical Twin ID Tag: She wears a green bobble while her sisters June and July wear purple and blue ones, respectively to tell each other apart, asides from their different body types.
  • One-Steve Limit: Averted, as there was another Pokémon, a Luxio, who had the same name as her. However, they never interacted since the other August, along with the other members of the Cosmic Crusaders, disappeared without explanation long before this August showed up.
  • Master of Illusion: Like her sisters, she can summon illusory copies of herself or others to confuse her opponents.
  • Same-Sex Triplets: June, July, and August are all-girl triplets.
  • Supreme Chef: Not only does she love eating, but August also knows how to cook thanks to Lilac.

Lilac

June's aunt and Darnell's other daughter. She owns the funhouse in which June and her sisters worked in before June got into Panem.

  • Nephewism: Alongside Darnell, she raised June, July, and August after April's death and Lyric's escape.
  • Supreme Chef: Lilac is very good at cooking. She even taught August about it.

Lyric

First ASAS appearance: Post 8869

A depressed Lucario and June's missing father.


  • Accessory-Wearing Cartoon Animal: He's a Lucario who wears a tattered-looking beret and nothing else.
  • Brainwashed and Crazy: Dark Stanford modified his memory to make him believe that Oscar and Lucian were responsible for his wife's death. He regains his true memories after June shows him the photo of his wife and their eggs.
  • Color-Coded Speech: He speaks in small, bold blue text to indicate his moroseness, but after his Heel–Face Turn and spending more time with his family, he starts speaking in regular-sized text to show how happy he's becoming.
  • Didn't Think This Through: When tasked by Dark Stanford to disguise himself as Aaron to lure Oscar and Lucian into being captured by him, Lyric became a perfect physical copy of the young Lucario, all the way down to his voice. He broke into Lilac's house at night to ask Oscar and Lucian for "help" in finding June and then made them search for her in the forest. However, Lyric didn't account for Oscar having a telepathic connection with June since his escape, so when Oscar contacted her, he and Lucian already knew that "Aaron" was actually an impostor.
  • Flying Seafood Special: When disguised as a pirate Sharpedo, he can float in the air just fine, though he prefers staying in water.
  • Heel Realization: After his defeat, June showed him a a picture of him and April holding their eggs. This causes Lyric to regain his memories and realize he has been hunting his daughter's friends, causing him to suffer a breakdown. Later, Phoebe managed to free him with her Acid Armor potion.
  • Hidden Depths: He joined a local acting troupe in his travels, which was where he got the skills to convincingly act like Aaron when he disguised as him.
  • Meaningful Name: He used to write songs as his hobby, hence his name, but he lost his passion for it after April's death. He's thinking of picking it back up after defecting from Dark Stanford and hiding from him in Castle Town.
  • The Mourning After: Following April's death, Lyric abandoned their daughters while they were still in their eggs out of grief. He became depressed and almost apathetic, barely reacting to anything. The only exceptions were upon learning that his daughters were alive, and after "learning" that Lucian and Oscar killed April where he reacted in rage and became determined to get them.
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts: He used to be very affectionate with his wife when she was alive, and they even slept adorably on their loveseat.
  • Spared by the Adaptation: In We Have All Become Pokémon, he was MIA after April's death but whether he died or not was unknown, but in ASAS, he's alive and well, but his family hasn't heard from him since he abandoned them after the tragedy. That is, until June encountered him when he tried kidnapping Oscar and Lucian.
  • Starting a New Life: He went to the Looniverse to protect Oscar and Lucian. There, he is disguised as a horse barman named Burnett, a character from his plays. Being in such a happy, cartoony world helped him get over his depression and he got used to it well.
  • Stronger Than They Look: While depressed, he was still able to resist three Atomozoids at once. Being older than Aaron, he could be way stronger and more experienced than the other Lucario.

April

June's deceased Zoroark mother and Lilac's sister.


    Team Bugtrio 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bugtrio.png
From left to right: Henry, Tenn, and Shelley (art by kablammin45)
First ASAS appearance: Post 4257 (Henry), Post 5255 (Shelley), Post 6881 (Tenn)

A Pokémon Rescue Team from June's PMD universe, consisting of Flygon Henry, Scizor Tenn, and Golisopod Shelley. After Henry is first met when trying to find the Greens and the Plantars, the Bugtrio become recurring allies of Stanford and the other nominators and also befriend fellow rescue team Fiery Blue Wings.

General Tropes

  • Fusion Dance: During the Phoebe Arc, Henry and Shelley took Phoebe's potions to transform into a Zekrom and Reshiram, respectively, so they can fuse with Tenn, who was transformed into a Kyurem by Phoebe's Evil Counterpart. Tenn, who was unable to speak in her new form, regained her voice when fused, though it's mixed with Henry's or Shelley's depending on the form.
  • Hypercompetent Sidekick: Both the girls have more common sense than Henry and help to keep him straight, though Tenn also has her moments of recklessness, leading to Shelley sometimes serving as this to them both.
  • Non-Indicative Name: Despite being called the Bugtrio, Henry isn't a Bug-type, but instead a Ground/Dragon-type. However, he looks like a bug, so he still fits the team name.
  • Two Girls and a Guy: Henry is The Leader and the only male in the team while Shelley and Tenn are his female sidekicks.

Henry Q. Buxton

  • Fearless Fool: Zig-Zagged. His huge confidence often causes him to get into trouble. He shares this trope with James during the Beach City and Freddy's haunted mansion arcs when they rode intense attractions and take the haunted house's extreme path, scaring them in the process, though they were brave enough to face their fears.
  • Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal: He wears a homemade tabard embroidered with a giant H.
  • Idiot Hero: He genuinely wants to help and protect people, but he's also not the sharpest tool in the shed, at one point getting completely lost in June's weird mirror maze, and later having to stop himself from pressing an unknown button in the industrial complex on SR388 and mistaking the Metroid Queen for an actual queen.
  • Insult of Endearment: He used to be called a "hopeless idiot" by Tenn during their first mission together, but now she means it affectionately after hooking up.
  • Large Ham: He gives James a run for his money in this regard, his manner of speaking as pompous as ever. They even share their habits of high-pitched squeals when frightened.
  • Never Say "Die": When he, James, and Vinci (who was disguised as a Smeargle named Jonathan) were running away from Silas, Henry used Rock Tomb to build a wall to protect his friends and said this, not wanting to say "die":
    "Yes, we shall take him or...or we shall fall trying."
  • Our Spirits Are Different: Henry's spirit form is revealed to be a Dreepy with the same colors as him when he was forced out of his body by Silas.
  • Second Love: He became this to Tenn after they stopped Evil Phoebe at the alternate Whispering Pines. Tenn was relieved to have a boyfriend who genuinely loves her, unlike her ex-boyfriend Griffin who manipulated her into a loveless relationship.
  • Teleportation: He uses the same communicator as Stanford to teleport his team to various worlds. He often ends up in the wrong place, but he's getting the hang of it.
  • Torment by Annoyance: His idea to escape the Queen Metroid when he and several others get captured by her on SR388, which James joins in on. It works, impressing everybody (especially Tenn).

Tenn W. Rodecker

  • Baritone of Strength: The strong, serious Tenn is revealed to have a deep feminine voice when she temporarily regained it by switching bodies with Henry.
  • Close-Knit Community: She grew up in a small farming village where everyone knew everyone.
  • Domestic Abuse: How she got her scar. Her then-boyfriend Griffin blackmailed her into keeping his bullying on a young Pokémon a secret, but she stood up against that. He burned her in the head and chest for that and was arrested, but the severity of the injury rendered Tenn speechless for most of her life. She also gained a fear of fire because of it, not just because it's her natural weakness, with Henry being ironically resistant to it.
  • Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal: She wears a violet tank top to hide the scar she received from the injury that caused her to lose her voice.
  • Hidden Depths: She teaches Henry how to dance because she took dance classes growing up.
  • Irony: She lost her voice when she was burned in the chest, but regained it for real when Ho-Oh breathed Sacred Fire on her.
  • Kill the Ones You Love: During the Phoebe Arc, she was transformed into a Kyurem by Evil Phoebe and forced to kill her teammates as revenge for the Gorebyss' defeat the other day. Tenn was unable to scream after permanently getting her voice back the other day because her mouth was frozen, and Henry and Shelley had to telepathically snap her out with Aaron's aura. Tenn then came to her senses and thrashed about in agony.
  • The Speechless: A past injury rendered Tenn unable to speak, with her only spoken dialogue being in internal monologue. It's suggested that she would speak if she were able to, however, and when she ends up in Henry's body after all three of the Bugtrio experience a "Freaky Friday" Flip (courtesy of Swapper), she speaks quite a bit. She also doesn't mind losing her voice again when she was swapped back to normal, as she feels it wouldn't be the last time she'd regain it. She finally had her voice restored for real when Ho-Oh breathed Sacred Fire on her chest burn.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Naturally for a Pokémon who's doubly Weak to Fire, she's afraid of it, especially after Griffin burned her in the chest, making her lose her voice. After regaining her ability to speak, she overcame her pyrophobia and now protects others from it.

Shelley

  • All Lesbians Want Kids: It's implied that Shelley and Shelby wish to have baby Goomies and Wimpods of their own, as shown in The Bad Apple's Lotus-Eater Machine illusion for Wes. Whether the real Shelley and Shelby want this is unknown since the illusion was based on Wes's wishes for them.
  • Cannot Spit It Out: She has a hard time talking about her feelings, especially if they're romantic ones. She hid her bitter feelings towards Tenn when the latter thought of going on a date with Henry, and Shelley struggled to confess after they hooked up.
  • Commonality Connection: She and Shelby discovered that both of them are similarly named Shy Shelled Animals who are medics of their respective teams. They're also worried about their teammates leaving them because they entered a relationship (or got married in Wes and Millie's case). Shelley then ended up crushing on Shelby after the latter helped her move on from Tenn.
  • Gentle Giant: She's a Golisopod with the size and brutish appearance that being one entails, but she is a very soft-spoken and non-aggressive individual and often comes off as the voice of reason among the trio.
  • Healing Hands: She can use Aqua Ring on others to gradually heal their injuries.
  • Jealous Romantic Witness: She had a crush on Tenn but didn't take it well when Shelley discovered that the latter's dating Henry after the "Henry Pines" Mission. Hooking up with Tenn wouldn't have worked, anyway, because Tenn is straight.
  • Vocal Dissonance: She's a big, brutish-looking Golisopod with a high-pitched, feminine voice.

    Heidi and Holly Holster 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/heidi_western_v_c.png
Heidi (art by kablammin45)
First ASAS appearance: Post 5986 (Heidi), Post 6806 (Holly)

Twin Hypsilophodon from Kenny and Joaquin's universe. Heidi is first met by the party when they are chasing down the 'Brijes during the Ring arc and again when she, Kenny, Vincent, and Flea team up to find Holly. Heidi shares the same Super-Speed ability as Kenny and later develops a crush on him.


  • Almost Kiss: Heidi nearly kissed Kenny after dancing to open the gate to the Alebrijes' Land of Dreams, but they fell down laughing.
  • Birds of a Feather: The speedy Heidi has a crush on the equally speedy Kenny, and they officially become a couple during Bale's Christmas party.
  • Everyone Has Standards: While Holly dissents her old gang for turning against her and stealing the Hypnos-Stone, she still wishes to rescue them from Dark Stanford even after they were mutated into monsters to serve him, believing that they didn't deserve that "punishment".
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip:
    • Were swapped with each other during the Freaky Friday arc. Holly was not used to Heidi's Super-Speed in the slightest and crashed several times, much like Plessie-as-Kenny.
    • Holly then switched bodies again, this time with Marian, when they took Zecora's body-swapping potions, which Phoebe (who was likewise swapped with Eldrid) recreated as an experiment. However, instead of their souls being swapped, they simply transformed into each other.
  • Good All Along: In a sense; Holly's gang started out genuinely villainous to the point of kidnapping her, but after circumstances resulted in Holly becoming the new leader, she retooled the gang into a Merry Men-esque group of vigilantes who only stole from evil people. At the beginning of the Alebrije Arc, however, Holly's gang turned against her to steal the Alebrijes' Hypnos-Stone for themselves.
  • Last-Name Basis: Marian just calls Holly by her last name.
  • Missing Mom: Their mother died of cholera before they hatched, and the doctors couldn't save her in time. Heidi and Holly's father then promised to take good care of them in her absence.
  • Refitted for Sequel: Kenny and Heidi's interactions as well as Holly's concept were based on a planned dynamic for the failed second reboot of The Great TV Tropes Western.
  • Shipper on Deck: Holly has no issue with Heidi's crush on Kenny and subtly encourages Heidi to get to know him better.
  • Sibling Seniority Squabble: Even if Holly's only five minutes older than Heidi, she still treats her like her "baby" sister, to Heidi's annoyance.
  • Super-Speed: Heidi has some competition with Kenny when it comes to running super fast, a trait she has because she's a descendant of the Alebrijes.

    "Lizard" 
First ASAS appearance: Post 7626

First nominated in Reboot Season 194, the Darkner only known as "Lizard" hails from an unknown Dark World where a Dark Fountain was opened up at a zoo, turning it into a bustling animal town.

J.J. (art by kablammin45)

First ASAS appearance: Post 6943 (cameo), Post 7781 (first proper appearance)

A young married pair of Toxtricities from Whispering Pines. Amped Axel is loud and likes to rock out while Low-Key J.J. (standing for Jerrica James) is mellow and easy-going. They are accompanied by J.J.'s Machamp bodygaurd Tyrell. Were nominated in S199note .


    Dess 

Dess

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dess_v_c.png
(art by kablammin45)
First ASAS appearance: Post 8136

Dess is a Hisiuan Zoroark from a Hisui-like PMD universe, and June's alternate self from said world. They are first met in the main PMD universe (after falling into a time-space distortion in their homeworld).


  • Alone Among the Couples: They feel out of place during June and Aaron's dinner date because the other Pokémon couples are celebrating with them and Dess still has abandonment issues.
  • Alternate Self: They're June's counterpart from a Hisui-like PMD World, though she at first thought they were from Scipion's PMD World since Skyler was his counterpart from hers.
  • Ambiguous Situation: Dess holds a grudge against their family for leaving them to die long ago, but according to Aaron, it's possible that they didn't deliberately leave them for dead and that they might still be out there.
  • Big Eater: They can scarf down an entire meal faster than Alex and without feeling bloated because they're undead.
  • Distaff Counterpart: Of June in their past life as they were once male. Despite that, they don't mind being called with whatever pronouns by the others because they don't care about using gender labels for themself.
  • Eye Pop: Accidentally pops one of their eyes out of their head in Lisa's hospital while trying to mimic Silas's One-Winged Angel form. Being undead, this doesn't harm them in the slightest (but it certainly startled everyone else).
  • Family Theme Naming: Like June and her sisters July and August, Dess is short for "December" while their brothers Octavian and Nova sound like "October" and "November", respectively.
  • Foil:
    • To June. June loves everyone, uses her illusions to entertain others, and loves her family dearly. Conversely, Dess at best doesn't care about other Pokémon, terrifies and injures Pokémon with their illusions, and hates their family due to being left behind by them on a snowy mountain, ultimately leading to Dess's death and transformation into a Hisiuan Zoroark.
    • To Skyler. They're both Hisuian Zoroarks who currently go by any pronouns who were opposite-gender counterparts of June and Scipion, respectively, in their past lives, and they enjoy scaring people. However, Skyler goes out of their way to meet new people despite their eeriness while Dess is incredibly shy and hides whenever people approach them. Also, Skyler was killed in an accident and retaliated as soon as they turned into a Hisuian Zoroark, while Dess died after being abandoned by their family and still holds a grudge at them to this day. Additionally, Skyler had always been evil before their death while Dess only became vengeful after theirs. Unlike Scipion and June however, the two Hisuian Zoroarks get along rather well because of their shared love for scaring people.
  • Ghost Amnesia: Has no memory of their life before becoming a Hisuian Zoroark, but the hints that are given suggest a Dark and Troubled Past. They regain their memory after seeing June with her family, and it's revealed that Dess believes that their family had abandoned them on a snowy mountain.
  • Gosh Darn It to Heck!: Their swears are less intense than Scipion's, as shown when they made an impression of him for Onox at the Looniverse.
  • Hates Being Touched: When they first met with the other Pokémon, they were scared of hugs and even being touched in general. After spending more time with Aaron, June, Oscar, and Lucian, they started to be okay with it.
  • Immortals Fear Death: Despite being undead, they still fear the possibility of being "killed" again, but they mask that by laughing at the face of death.
  • Master of Illusion: Like all Zoroarks, they can summon illusions, and as a Hisuian one, theirs are more powerful, and they can make them so realistic they look and feel exactly like the real deals.
  • One-Steve Limit: Averted. Dess shares the same name as Noelle's unseen sister, a coincidence that did not go unnoticed by her as it was implied that she witnessed something traumatic on Dess Holiday as a fawn and never saw her ever since.
  • Pet the Dog: Despite largely hating all other Pokémon and having no qualms about using their illusions to torment them, Dess befriends Aaron, June, Oscar, and Lucian while having lost their memory after falling into a space-time distortion (and not remembering that they hated all Pokémon), and even when they get it back due to a stray electric spark from Tenn (who was Black Kyurem at the time), they cannot bring themselves to harm the four of them because they were nice to them. Dess's care for June in particular ends up being what prevents them from attacking Darnell due to his resemblance to their grandmother. Over time, they begin to be more immediately trusting of those who are already friends with Aaron, June, Oscar, and Lucian as well.
  • Precious Photo: The piece of paper that "Odessa" found in the magic Pirate Book turns out to be an old photo of Dess and their family. Despite Dess holding a grudge against them for abandoning them and leaving them dead, they still miss them deep down.
  • Sobriquet Sex Switch: When pretending to be a female pirate, they go by Odessa.
  • Wholesome Crossdresser: As a Hisuian Zoroark who doesn't care about their gender, they're fine with dressing as whatever gender they want to present as, like when they dressed up as Dread Pirate Odessa to cheer up Oscar and Lucian, who were also disguised as pirates while hiding in the Database Library.

    Phoebe Constance Meyers 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ba8bca0d_5dcc_4ec5_bb1d_8dde572e38b3.png
(art by kablammin45)
First ASAS appearance: Post 8458note 

An oversized Gorebyss that, like June before her, is a counterpart from the original villain of We Have All Become Pokémon. However, she turns out to be a good Pokemon here. In the present, Phoebe is a kindly, bubbly individual who genuinely wants to atone for her past.


  • Alchemy Is Magic: Her main skill is to brew potions by extracting energy from Wonder Orbs. She can change Pokémon into other species, modify their sizes, or temporarily evolve or devolve them. She can also temporarily grant them new moves or Abilities using them.
  • The Atoner: Is introduced as an exile after her attempt to destroy Whispering Pines as a giant Gorebyss, all because she was expelled from her university and she wanted to prove to everyone that she can live up to her grandfather's legacy. She was very regretful and deeply afraid of her potions as a result. Facing her fears with her Ax-Crazy evil counterpart as well as Silas, another villain from WHABP, she was accepted back into the town and became a respected hero.
  • Evil Me Scares Me: Having struggled to move on from her sordid past, Phoebe is terrified when Evil Phoebe, her evil counterpart from a timeline that was never meant to be, shows up. It takes the entire fight with Vahirom for Phoebe to overcome fear of the person who is essentially the embodiment of the things from her past that she is not proud of (and the future she narrowly avoided).
  • Flying Seafood Special: She's an aquatic Pokémon who has no problems with land travel, as she simply floats while swimming in the air.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip:
    • She can make a potion that switches the bodies of the drinkers if they both take it while holding onto each other. She made one to switch Kenny and Wanda back after a malfunction in the Tribute Summoning Machine switched their bodies for Season 265.
    • She switched bodies with Eldrid twice, once when she first tested the cure for Kenny swapping with Wanda for Season 265, and again when she recreated Zecora's body-swapping potions. However, since the second time requires them to resolve their interpersonal problems to switch back (as was designed by Zecora), Phoebe decided to try befriending Eldrid to cure themselves.
  • Limb-Sensation Fascination: The two times she tested body-swapping potions with Eldrid, she was fascinated with having limbs while in his body.
  • Make My Monster Grow: Former villain example. Phoebe ended up permanently stuck at a size much larger than expected for a Gorebyss as a result of the imperfect Dynamax potion she used in her attempt to destroy Whispering Pines. She deliberately keeps herself this way as a reminder to herself to never again go down the path she almost irreversibly went down in the past.
  • Mythology Gag: When trying to reintegrate herself into the community, she reluctantly disguised herself as a Huntail named Gomer Carvey. In her origin RP, Gomer was her minion who was actually a brainwashed and transformed Douglas, a Salamence who was Delilah's father.
  • No Mouth: She has a long, thin proboscis instead of an actual mouth, but people can still tell if she's smiling.

    Team Cerulean 
First ASAS appearance: Post 8430 (Millie), Post 8517 (Wes and Shelby)

Another rescue team from the same world as Dess, consisting of Wes (a Hisuian Typhlosion), Millie (a Sneasler), and Shelby (a Hisiuan Goodra). All three are very familiar with Dess due to Wes's connection with them.

Millie was nominated in Reboot Season 209 as a generic Sneasler.


Wes

Millie

  • Childhood Friend Romance: Wes and Millie first saw each other as teenage rookie rescuers, and Wes was impressed by Millie's feats despite her small size as a Sneasel. Their love only grew from there as they evolved.
  • Determinator: Millie has always been encouraged by Wes to never give up, and she hopes to scale Mount Coronet by herself someday. The Bad Apple exploited this by forcing her to climb it again in a Lotus-Eater Machine illusion to distract her from helping Larry the Cucumber take Stella Stokes to safety.
  • Happily Married: Wes and Millie were married for a year before their team was introduced in ASAS and are planning on where to settle down and how many kids to have. They then have their first Egg after their mission at Bumblyburg.
  • Imperiled in Pregnancy: Played with: She didn't realize that she was carrying an Egg when she, Wes, and Shelby teamed up with Shelley and Larry to evacuate Stella Stokes from Bumblyburg until after the harrowing mission. She excused herself to the bathroom to lay the Egg, and she proudly presented it to Wes and their team.
  • Our Zombies Are Different: After whiffing an attack on Dino Piranha and falling off a cliff, Millie was one of a number of fallen tributes in Season 209 who were revived as zombies. She goes straight back to Eye-Sicle's lair, scaring the daylights out of Jared, before getting restored back to normal.

Shelby

  • All Lesbians Want Kids: It's implied that Shelby and Shelley wish to have baby Goomies and Wimpods of their own, as shown in The Bad Apple's Lotus-Eater Machine illusion for Wes. Whether the real Shelby and Shelley want this is unknown since the illusion was based on Wes's wishes for them.
  • Beautiful Singing Voice: Shelby sang for Wes and Millie during their wedding, and was requested to sing for June and Aaron's dinner date because of her lovely voice.
  • Commonality Connection: Shelby and Shelley discovered that both of them are similarly named Shy Shelled Animals who are medics of their respective teams. They're also worried about their teammates leaving them because they entered a relationship (or got married in Wes and Millie's case). Shelley then ended up crushing on Shelby after the latter helped her move on from Tenn.
  • Friendless Background: Shelby was alone in her cave until Wes and Millie came along, and she fears being abandoned by them.
  • Hates Being Alone: Shelby absolutely panics whenever she is separated from Millie or Wes and crushes Millie with a hug when Millie comes back after Season 209.
  • The Medic: Shelby was hired into the rescue team because she knew how to fix injuries, like with Millie's broken leg when they first met outside Shelby's cave in Mount Coronet.
  • Shy Shelled Animal: Shelby is soft-spoken and often hides in her shell when scared.
  • Singing Voice Dissonance: She normally speaks just as quietly as Shelley, but when she sings, she belts the song out loud.

Other Characters from the Metroid Universe

    Squishy 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/capture_dcran_2021_12_04_193607.png

A Metroid from the planet SR388. It was born during the Metroid's arc and has evolved into a Zeta Metroid at the end of it.


  • Acid Attack: Its main method of attack alongside its huge strength and its speed.
  • Affectionate Nickname: It's called "Squishy" by Lucian and Oscar.
  • Androcles' Lion: At the beginning of their journey, Lucian and Wednesday rescued its egg from an Hornoad, a local alien. Not only did the "baby" spare them, but James and Henry successfully convinced it to rescue them from the rest of its hive at the arc's climax, resulting in it becoming close to its two saviors.
  • Ass in a Lion Skin: Following its "daddies" in the Looniverse, Squishy is disguised as the Tasmanian Devil, Taz. Both communicates with grunts and can be very agressive.
  • Cute Monster: It may be able to be cuddly, but it's still a big raptor-like alien with a Lamprey Mouth.
  • Evil-Detecting Dog: Even when disguised as Taz, its primal instincts let it see through the seemingly helpless toony Altford (who was actually the Shape Shifter in disguise) and try sucking his life energy.
  • Expy: Of the original Metroid hatchling.
  • Extremely Protective Child: Since Oscar and Lucian were the first things he saw when hatching, it considers them as its parents just as much at the Metroid Queen. As such, it's incredibly protective of them.
  • It Can Think: Like Metroids in general, it's not just a brainless monster. It has a Hive Mind thanks to the Metroid Queen and it can plan or feel.
  • MacGuffin Super-Person: Raven Beak and Dark Stanford's whole plan revolves around capturing, mutating, and cloning Squishy. They eventually get their hands on it after an ambush at Icicle Mountain.
  • Non-Malicious Monster: Despite its bond with Oscar and Lucian and its abilities to share energy, it's still a very territorial alien that is not above sucking anything dry out of hunger.
  • Rapid Aging: Absorbing Oscar bracer's energy caused it to mutate from a hatchling to a Zeta Metroid in an instant.

    Quiet Robe 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/metroid_dread_chozo_elder.png

An old member of the Thoha tribe from SR388 and a brilliant scientist. This Chozo was abducted by Raven Beak and forced to serve under him.


  • Actual Pacifist: As a Thoha, Quiet Robe rejected any form of violence, to the point he had developed a mental block preventing him from directly harming any sentient beings, even himself.
  • The Atoner: Unlike Fire Eyes (who despite not approving of his leader's cruelty is still loyal to Raven Beak (until the latter showed his true colors to the Chozo soldier), and to make up for "past mistakes", Quiet Robe willingly proposes to help Joaquin in saving the 'Brijes from Dark Stanford and Raven Beak.
  • Genocide Survivor: Quiet Robe is the only known Chozo of the Thoha tribe who is currently still alive because the rest of his race was exterminated by Raven Beak.
  • I Will Only Slow You Down: His reason, word-for-word, for not directly helping the ZDR team with rescuing the prisoners other than giving them the bracers needed to defeat Raven Beak and the map showing the prisoners' location. He then got shot In the Back by a Golden Atomozoid once his job was done.
  • Reluctant Mad Scientist: It's clear that Quiet Robe is not happy with working under Raven Beak. Despite this, his scientific skills are great, as expected from a Chozo from the Thoha tribe who are the Metroids' creators. He is an expert in genetic experiments and is the one who worked on Blood Moon's X DNA.
  • Sympathy for the Devil: Though he clearly disapproves Dark Stanford's cruel ways, Quiet Robe still pities him and even futilely tried to talk him out of helping Raven Beak, knowing the latter is using Dark Stanford's deseparation to his advantage.
  • You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: After giving the ZDR team crucial information on how to stop Raven Beak and Dark Stanford, he was shot down by a Golden Atomozoid under Raven Beak's command just as the team left.

    Spoiler Character for Dark Stanford's Arc 

Brave Spear

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mpr_chozo_ghost_artwork_7.jpg

First ASAS appearance: Post 10,522 (unnamed)

The former commander of Blood Moon's squad, blood brother of Fire Eyes and Blood Moon. After his horrific death at his lover's hands, unable to move on, Brave Spear now wanders across the cosmos, concerned about his tribe's fate.


  • Chekhov's Gunman: The Chozo Ghost who appeared in Season 252 is later revealed to be Brave Spear, Blood Moon's lost lover and the former leader of his squad, whom Blood Moon was forced to kill when he was infected by an X Parasite. He confronted Knox at Durango-100 in Season 264 to make him relive his memories, and he blamed himself for failing to protect Blood Moon from the X, which turned him into the insane, ruthless warrior he is in the present.
  • A Fate Worse Than Death: As of now, Brave Spear is unable to move on and is forced to wander across the cosmos and uncontrollably attack people against his will.
  • I Was Quite the Looker: Brave Spear was said to be beautiful by Mawkin standards when he was alive.
  • The Lost Lenore: He was Blood Moon's former lover, whom he was forced to kill under the X Parasite's influence.
  • Manly Gay: He had the muscled body of a typical Mawkin warrior when he was in his prime and was one of the best fighters of his tribe, yet he fell for the equally muscled Blood Moon.
  • Our Ghosts Are Different: Not unlike the corrupted Chozo Ghosts from Metroid Prime, Brave Spear can uncontrollably lash out at anything. He shares their fighting methods (which include cosmic energy and intangibility) as well.
  • Posthumous Character: He was killed by Blood Moon when the latter was infected by an X Parasite 30 years before the events of ASAS. Brave Spear's death devastated everyone in his squad, especially Blood Moon, and he struggles with trying not to give in to the X's primal hunger whenever he's reminded of his death. Brave Spear's ghost then showed up in the present day to look for Knox and warn him of impending doom if Blood Moon's rampage isn't stopped.
  • Real Men Wear Pink: Back when he was alive, sewing was Brave Spear's passion in his free time, even though Blood Moon disregarded it as feminine work. It didn't prevent him from preciously keeping one of his lover's old embroidery representing their squad (a spear soaked with blood, surrounded by fire, planted on a lone rock in a roaring sea, with a bolt of lightning in the background.)
  • Seers: Downplayed. Like some spiritually awakened Chozo, Brave Spear, as a ghost, can have imperfect visions of the future.
  • Unfinished Business: The main reason Brave Spear can't move on is his regret for failing to save Blood Moon. When Knox defeats him and talks to him, he begs the coyote to help him find peace, as well as help the rest of his squad and his tribe from Raven Beak.
  • Universally Beloved Leader: Brave Spear had a very good reputation when he was alive, and he was beloved by his squad. Blood Moon was especially fond of him.
