Monty is a Water-type trainer from the sea, though his hometown is Vermillion City, Kanto. His starter Pokémon is a Wooper. His final team, is a Quagsire, a Poliwrath and a Kingdra.
* AbusiveParents: His father was not only a criminal, but he was also an alcoholic with his mother being a shut-in. While it was never stated what his father actually did, it may probably be for the best.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He may have the biggest heart in this game, but certain things could set him off. Particularly Seymour and surprisingly, Samson, for the thought that Samson had stolen Gareth's net.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Downplayed as it didn't show up, but he strongly disliked criminals. Because of this, he is one of Seymour's biggest enemies and was ''terrified'' of Samson when hearing about his delinquent friends. Though he gets over this when he actually meets them.
* BigFun: Well, he is big in terms of size, not girth, but otherwise this trope plays straight with his boisterous yet friendly personality.
* TheBigGuy: He is the largest person in the cast.
* BigGuyLittleGuy: The big guy with Gareth's little guy.
* DudeMagnet: He winds up gaining the affections of Samson and Logan over the course of the season.
* GentleGiant: He's noted to be a very large man, but he's a big lovable lug.
* HiddenDepths: He's a phenomenal singer. He reveals he really only sings when he's in a sad mood.
* LargeHam: Can come off as this due to his lack of volume control.
* LoveTriangle: He is in one where Samson and Logan have a crush on him and he is none the wiser.
* MakingASplash: He is a Water-type trainer. Yeah, 'Nuff said.

!!!Fairy-Type
[[spoiler: Seventeenth out. 2nd place. Lost the championship battle against Monty in episode 18.]]
Yuri-Chan is a Fairy-type trainer from Ecruteak City, Johto. Her starter Pokémon is a Snubbull. Her final team is a Granbull, a Togekiss and an Azumarill.
* ActionGirl: She didn't start out this way due to her panicky nature, but she soon develops into this due to her Aikido training and she slowly-but-surely develops courage.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: She is picked on by the other Kimono Girls and purposefully kept with them just to make themselves feel better.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She became so determined to win the Kimono Challenge, that she had subdued ''and threatened'' Marta, who tried to sneak up on her to purposefully get her to throw her away. [[spoiler: And she was absolutely furious at Logan for winning said Challenge that she worked so hard on.]]
** After so much pent-up angry about being harassed by the Kimono Girls, she had finally called them out for their horrible behavior and even criticizes some of their flaws at their job.
* BreakTheCutie: She used to be a happy child. But then, the Kimono Girls and their teacher had cruelly bullied her.
* CuteBruiser: Despite her fragility in appearance and personality, she is a skilled Aikido master and flips anyone who sneaks up on her over her shoulder.
* TheFairFolk: She is a Fairy-type Pokémon. She wants to be a Kimono Girl just like her mother, particularly a Fairy-type Pokémon.
* FormerlyFat: She used to be quite the large girl before attempting to become a Kimono Girl. However, the school's harsh training had slimmed her down.
* FragileFlower: It doesn't take many insults to make her cry. [[TheBully Francis]] took this far too well.
* FreudianExcuse: Being treated so horribly by the other Kimono Girls led to her anxiety issues.
* GrewASpine: She had finally told off the Kimono Girls who had horribly bullied her.
* GuileHero: She had been noticeably been cutthroat since the second half of the story, begging [[spoiler: everyone to let RISE as her partner for the Elite 4. At first, she seemed like she was overly forgiving and wanted to give her another chance. Turns out, she just wanted to use her element to her example.]]
* HardWorkHardlyWorks: She had spent a good chunk of the Kimono Challenge trying to win so she could get an Eevee and even get the respect of the Kimono Girls. [[spoiler: However, she had lost to Logan and this created a wedge between their friendship.]]
* HonorBeforeReason: She wouldn't join in the fight against [[spoiler: Rise]] because of the said battleground in on holy grounds. Sweetie, your opponent is tearing off the tower, [[spoiler: trying to hypnotize a Legendary Pokémon ''and'' is a deeply-religious person herself and yet ''she'' is joining in the fight.]]
* LovableCoward: Most of the time she is either screaming, running or crying, but is otherwise a cutie.
* NiceGirl: The poor girl would never hurt a fly. Most likely because she had startled them.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She is fifteen, though she had been mistaken for younger a couple of times. [[BerserkButton She is NOT happy about it.]]
* SailorFuku: Wears one to the show.
* ShrinkingViolet: She is painfully shy with huge anxiety issues.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Develops this friendship with Ruth [[spoiler: in the latter's final episode.]]

Simun is a Flying-type trainer from Castelia City, Unova. His starter Pokémon is a Swablu. His final team is an Altaria, a Golbat and a Gyarados.
* AlliterativeName: '''S'''imun '''S'''un.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's a joker who constantly makes fun of himself, but he's far more competent as a trainer than that description would lead you to expect.
* BlowYouAway: He is a Flying-type trainer. While he doesn't seem like it, he is quite strategic and knows that the Flying-type is usually accompanied by a second-typing.
* BrutalHonesty: After [[spoiler: watching his girlfriend, Marta get injured]], he has no qualms trying people how he felt without a joking tone to it.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Averted. He is the only one in the [[spoiler: final Seven]] who DOESN'T have a tragic one. Because of this, he believes that he doesn't deserve to win and [[spoiler: attempts to throw his Elimination match against Samson. Keyword being ''attempt.'']]
* DistressedDude: He, along with Vecepia had gotten kidnapped by Seymour and the Dark Riders until they were rescued by their fellow contestants.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Simun might love bugging people, but once he realizes how low Seymour is willing to sink, he refuses to associate with him any further.
** He also believes that Yuri-Chan being the butt of jokes from the Kimono Girls was unwarranted.
* TheGadfly: He loves getting under people's skin and watching their reactions.
* GoneHorriblyRight: He tries to [[spoiler: throw his Elimination match against Samson by having his [[JokeCharacter Magikarp]] fight and constantly do Splash. However, Magikarp soon evolved into Gyarados and fed up with being a punching bag, he one-shot Samson's Zoroark with a Hyper Beam.]]
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Does this to himself constantly for laughs.
* InsultComic: He loves insulting others, even, no, ''especially'' himself.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He'll snipe at anyone for a laugh, but he's a good guy at heart.

!!Logan Diamond
!!!Grass-Type
[[spoiler: Fifteenth out. 4th place. Lost to Yuri-Chan in Episode 16.]]
Logan is a Grass-type trainer from Nimbasa City, Unova. His starter Pokémon is a Foongus. His final team is an Amoonguss, a Meganium, and a Leafeon.
* BerserkButton: Marta. She's the only person that has managed to make him lose his temper thus far. [[spoiler: Justified because she is actually his sister and he blames her for what happened to their mother.]]
* ChickMagnet: As expected from a handsome boy band member, he has a lot of female fans. [[EvenTheGuysWantHim And even a few male fans as well.]]
* FamedInStory: He is a popular pop boy band sensation in-universe.
* {{Gayngst}}: He is gay and has trouble coping with it. This gets especially bad when he develops feelings for Monty.
* GreenThumb: He is a Grass-type trainer. Not surprising as he is a NatureLover.
* GrewASpine: It is stated that Logan has always done what his manager told him to do, but it wasn't until late in the season where we see how much of a controlling JerkAss the aforementioned manager was. When belittling him and trying to take him back, Logan said he had enough and he, along with everyone else (even [[EveryoneHasStandards Chris]]) yelling at him to back off.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: Part of the reason why he came on the show. However, he seems to have a large time fitting in.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: He never means to cause people harm, but there are times when he lacks awareness about other people's feelings and accidentally hurts them as a result.
* LoveTriangle: He is in one where he and Samson have a crush on Monty.
* NatureLover: As expected from a Grass-type trainer, he loves nature and wrote several environmental songs.
* [[spoiler: SiblingRivalry: With Marta, with the two of them blaming each other for abandoning their sick mother and leaving her to die.]]
* TeenIdol: Logan is a member of the popular boy band Five Vines.

[[folder: Samson Grey]]
!!Samson Grey
!!!Dark-Type
[[spoiler: Fourteenth out. 5th place. Lost to Simun in Episode 15.]]
Samson is a Dark-type trainer from Nimbasa City, Unova. His starter Pokémon is a Poochyena. His final team is a Poochyena, a Scrafty and a Cacturne. [[spoiler: Though WordOfGod confirms that Samson's "Poochyena" is a Zorua, which later evolved into Zoroark.]]
* BadLiar: When he tries to hide the fact that his starter Pokémon is a [[spoiler: Zorua]]. But he does this so poorly, one-by-one, people were realizing the truth.
* CombatPragmatist: He is a Dark-type trainer. Mainly because his friends back home are all Dark-types trainers themselves and got him into it as well.
* DarkIsNotEvil: He's a Dark-type trainer, but he's completely harmless.
* {{Delinquents}}: Not him, but his friends back home, who are implied to be a gang of troublemakers who are willing to "take care" of anyone who picks on him.
* EveryoneKnewAlready: [[spoiler: When he was confused why Marta upfront said he had a Zorua, everyone decided enough was enough and told him they already knew in different reactions.]]
* FreakyFashionMildMind: He dresses like a textbook punk but he is actually one of the nicest people in the cast.
* GrewASpine: After being Seymour's ChewToy, he had finally started to stick up to him and even [[spoiler: eliminated him in an Elimination Battle.]]
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: He really shouldn't have tried to become friends with Seymour.
* LoveTriangle: He is in one where he and Logan have a crush on Monty.
* MoralityPet: He seems to be this to his friends back home. He casually mentions them committing not-entirely-legal actions, but notes that they're always nice to him and protect him.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Would you really believe that lovable darkly-dressed Samson is 21?
* PayEvilUntoEvil: [[spoiler: He and his friends are a group of vigilantes who fight criminals on a regular basis.]]
* PyrrhicVictory: He had won the Bug-Catching Challenge. However, he did it with a bug-catching net Seymour stole from Vecepia which she gave to Gareth. So, he is made out to be a cheater by Monty, straining their friendship. And in an act of revenge, Gareth stole his Everstone for his [[spoiler: elimination battle with Cassandra.]]
* ShrinkingViolet: Not as much as Yuri-Chan but he is definitely timid.

[[spoiler: Twelfth/Thirteenth out. 6/7th place. Lost to Monty and Samson in Episode 14 alongside Yvonne in a double elimination battle.]]
Ferrum is a Steel-type Trainer from Anistar City, Kalos. Her starter Pokémon is a Honedge. Her final team is an Aegislash, a Forretress and a Skarmory.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: Don't even try to deny it.
* BadassGay: A tough, noble knight who also happens to be a lesbian.
* BreakTheCutie: During multiple points in the story, she has confused and called many other females for Yvonne, the other girl in the program Ferrum attends. When asked by the other girls why she does this, she breaks down admitting Yvonne's been gone for a year and she keeps hoping when she sees the supposed Yvonne, it's really her. You know it's bad when the usual over-the-top Ferrum becomes filled with despair. [[spoiler: Turns out later in the story, Keira, Ferrum's great friend, IS Yvonne.]]
* ExtraOreDinary: She is a Steel-type trainer as she is working under [[VideoGame/PokemonXAndY Wikstrom's]] training program, an Elite Four Steel-Type member.
* ForGreatJustice: No matter the time or place, she's always seeking to bring justice to the land!
* InsultBackfire: When insulted (usually by Seymour), she goes on a long-winding speech on how her knight training had proved the opposite before walking away pleased that she had invoked this trope when in reality, she just bewildered said taunter into silence.
* KnightInShiningArmor: From her outfit to her ideals to her name to even her [[MeaningfulName surname,]] she is this. For bonus points, her starter is [[CoolSword Honedge]].
* LargeHam: Very much so. This turns out to be a huge advantage for her in the Radio Station challenge since she makes everything sound incredibly interesting.
* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler: With Yvonne.]]
* TwoGirlsToATeam: Is one of the two only girls in Wikstrom's training program, besides another girl named Yvonne. [[spoiler: Turns out, this is important information as not only was Yvonne supposedly missing for a year, she was also Keira.]]

Keira [[spoiler: or rather, Yvonne]] is a Ghost-type trainer from Hearthome City, Sinnoh. Her starter Pokémon is a Spiritomb. Her final is a Spiritomb and a Dusknoir.
* [[spoiler: {{Brainwashed}}: At first, it seemed like she was the BigBad, but it turns that she was another brainwashed pawn. Not only that, but she was ''Yvonne'', Ferrum's close friend all of these years.]]
* CoolShades: Her big dark glasses.
* ExtremeDoormat: She unquestioningly takes any order that anyone gives her. This leaves quite a few of her fellow competitors concerned.
* LipstickLesbian: A prim and proper maid that develops romantic feelings for Ferrum. [[spoiler: Or actually Ferrum's teammate, Yvonne, this whole time that had already developed feelings for Ferrum.]]
* LiteralMinded: She takes her job as a maid so seriously that when Vecepia had asked her to wait outside a store, she does exactly that. ''While standing in the middle of the sidewalk.''
* {{Meido}}: She is a ''very'' diligent maid.
* NeatFreak: As expected from someone who takes her job as a cleaner seriously, she's constantly cleaning any stains and messes she sees.
** An interesting variation. [[spoiler: Yvonne is ''not'' this, but even after being freed from brainwashing, that aspect of Keira had stuck with her.]]
* NiceGirl: She is respectable to everyone and is more than willing to complete their requests, even if it is [[JerkAss Francis.]]
* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler: With Ferrum.]]
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When Seymour and Simun were speaking out everyone's embarrassing secrets, she broke into tears (though more for the humiliation of her master than herself) and when Ferrum calmly told her to go back to her booth, [[ExtremeDoormat Keira]] ''refused'' and asked Ferrum to stay with her.
** Then again, [[spoiler: considering that she is actually Yvonne, this was never really her true personality.]]
** After being [[spoiler: rescued by the Unown and being called out by ''Simun'', she snaps out in a furious fashion that indicates that she had been holding it in all of this time.]]
* SoulPower: She is a Ghost-type trainer. Mainly so her Pokémon could look out for her and try to stop her from overworking through the night.
* {{Workaholic}}: Takes her job so passionately that she rarely sleeps which results in constant headaches and sometimes even passing out.

Vecepia is a Fighting-type trainer from Undella City, Unova. Her starter Pokémon is a Pancham. Her final team is a Pongoro.

* BribingYourWayToVictory: [[spoiler: Her dad pays off Chris to let her return to the game after her elimination.]]
** [[spoiler: Her dad tries to do this again the second time she had gotten eliminated, but Vecepia called him out and stated that despite him buying all of the expensive stuff for her, all she ever wanted was to spend time with him.]]
* ButtMonkey: Every episode save for Episode 5 she is attacked by a Water Pokémon. While the first time is PlayedForDrama, the rest of said attacks are more light-hearted.
* DistressedDamsel: She, along with Simun had gotten kidnapped by Seymour and the Dark Riders until they were rescued by their fellow contestants.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: While she doesn't mean to rub it in everyone's faces, she has a tendency to talk about all of the expensive things she has, irking most of the cast. Especially since there is a homeless boy in the cast.
* {{Meganekko}}: She wears a rather large pair of glasses.
* NiceGirl: Well, while she has a tendency to annoy the other contestants at the start, especially Gareth, she genuinely doesn't have a mean bone in her body.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: [[spoiler: Not her directly but after getting eliminated, she returns two episodes later after her father had bribed Chris into letting her back on the show. The other contestants (minus Monty and later Keira)... are not fond of this act.]]
* ShelteredAristocrat: She had spent most of her life living a sheltered life so because of this, her comments could come off as... selfish.
* SpoiledSweet: She is rich to the point of absurdity, but she is genuinely a cheerful and sweet girl.
* TakeMeInstead: She intends to pull this when [[spoiler: Gareth had became eliminated, mainly knowing that he deserved to be here more than her.]]

Marta is a Psychic-type trainer from Mahogany Town, Johto. Her starter Pokémon is a Natu. Her final team is a Xatu and a Mr. Mime.
* ActionGirl: She is always up for a good fight.
* [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling Annoying Older Sibling]]: Acts like this after she and [[spoiler: Logan]] make up. Though it is extremely light-hearted, especially in comparison to how she had treated him for the first half of the story.
* BerserkButton: She really hates pop stars, which made her be abrasive towards Logan. Even more so then Seymour. [[spoiler: Though we eventually find out that it wasn't pop stars she hates, it was Logan in particular as her brother.]]
* BigSisterBully: [[spoiler: Acts this way for the first half of the season towards Logan due to her blaming him for their mother's death. Fortunately, they made up.]]
* BloodKnight: Whether it is her doing the punching, watching a fight and even having ''herself'' being thrown, she loves a good fight.
* BrutalHonesty: She wastes no time telling Logan how much his music sucks, never mind that he was a famous celebrity or the fact he literally just arrived. [[spoiler: Although, it's unknown if Logan being her brother was the reason for her hating his music.]]
* DumbMuscle: She's tough and combative, but not the sharpest tool in the shed. [[spoiler: However, she was the first one to figure out Samson has a Zorua.]]
* HeadPet: Her then Natu and current Xatu likes to nest in her hair.
* HeelFaceTurn: Not that she's entirely a force a good, but Logan did tell Yuri-Chan that Marta was [[spoiler: a former member of Team Plasma.]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: She had been pulled out of the game after saving everyone from a bomb and getting herself blown up as a result. While she didn't die, she was forced to be medically evacuated out of the game.]]
* HiddenDepths: While her thinking is simple, to put it mildly, she knows that [[spoiler: Samson's starter is actually a Zorua.]]
** She's also fairly good at battle tactics despite coming off as foolish most of the time. [[spoiler: When she was in an elimination battle against Vecepia, she wins in the quickest and easiest battle yet. And unlike Rise's win against Jackson, she doesn't even take advantage of her Natu's type advantage to do it.]]
* [[spoiler: NonGameplayElimination: Was removed from the game after being blown up due to a bomb.]]
* OfficialCouple: Eventually becomes this with Simun.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She's not very big, but she's quite strong and aggressive.
* PsychicPowers: She is a Psychic-type trainer. As ironic as it sounds, she has an interesting ideology behind it. By focusing all of her battle tactics into the pure physical onslaught, Marta believes she always holds the element of surprise closely at her side.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: During Episode 5, there was a Challenge that involves taking care of Pokémon eggs. [[spoiler: She assumed that just like the Slowpokes, they would be fake so she ''threw her egg into the ocean to see it would break''. While she WAS right about the eggs being fake, she had little reason to think so and automatically lost the challenge and was automatically in the Bottom 2.]]

Ruth is a Normal-type trainer from Flocessy Ranch, Unova. Her starter Pokémon is a Lillipup. Her final team is a Stoutland.

* FarmGirl: She works on a ranch.
* FemaleMisogynist: Views other girls as lesser, and in general derides femininity.
* FreudianExcuse: Her low opinion of women comes from being bullied by other girls for not being traditionally feminine.
* TheLadette: She is a bulky woman with a dislike for girly things.
* NonElemental: She is a Normal-type trainer. Mainly because she had grown up raising Herdier. Also, she believes that having nothing you're strong against makes you fight harder in battle.
* PinkIsForSissies: She doesn't like stuff she considers girly and tries to avoid bunking with feminine girls.
* ThrowTheDogABone: During the fight between the contestants and the Dark Riders, she had gotten asked out by one of the enemies. She was genuinely flattered by that.

When Simun is asked what happened, he decides to make up Seymour confessing to being the thief. Seymour tries to tell the others this never happened, but it's too late as he's forced into an elimination battle and loses against Samson and is arrested by Officer Nancy.]]
* BenevolentBoss: He is surprisingly this with the Dark Riders. Despite getting annoyed by their antics, [[SurroundedByIdiots and rightfully so]], he genuinely cares about their well-being.

* FourEyesZeroSoul: He's a skilled mathematician with spectacles who also happens to be the leader of a rebellious gang with no qualms about hurting others.
* FreudianExcuse: He used to be a normal bookworm who got into a gang. However, the said gang was using him just so he could do their homework. Because of this, he hates being pushed around.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He is this for the cast. Not even Samson and April want anything to do with him due to his mistreatment of them.
* GeniusBruiser: He looks like your textbook nerd. However, he is much stronger and tougher than he looks.
* HiddenDepths: He is actually quite skilled in mathematics and prefers to hide it behind under his streetwise wit.
* JerkAss: He spends most of his screen-time belittling others.
* KickTheDog: He had hired thugs to sabotage the other contestants ''by smashing their Pokémon eggs.'' [[spoiler: Granted, said eggs were fake, but nobody knew that.]]

* DeathOrGloryAttack: [[spoiler: As a desperation move in her sudden death battle against Gareth, she has Voltorb use Self-Destruct in an attempt to take out Gareth's Sewaddle evolving to a Swadloon. Swadloon's defense is just enough to weather the attack, resulting in Cassandra essentially eliminating herself.]]

* GenkiGirl: She is enthusiastic and energetic in nearly everything she does.

* [[spoiler: BigBadFriend: To Yuri-Chan.]]
* [[spoiler: BitchInSheepsClothing: Not only is she the thief, but she didn't really have that much confidence with Yuri-Chan just like she said back in the game.]]

* [[spoiler: {{Hypocrite}}: Despite her deeply ridiculous views, she has no problem using the Ecruteak Tower, a sacred building as a battleground.]]

* LargeHam: Let's just say that she gets ''very'' animated during her rituals.
* NiceGirl: She was willing to help Carl in the first challenge even if it meant it harmed her chances of staying. She has also taken a somewhat big sister approach to Yuri-Chan.

* [[PreacherMan Preacher Woman]]: She is the upcoming head of the Solfire Clan, a group that religiously worships Ho-Oh.

* [[spoiler: PsychicPowers: Not her herself, but she was the one who was controlling the Unown which are Psychic-type Pokémon.]]
* TokenReligiousTeammate: Well, she is the only one who has a deep religious belief.
* [[spoiler: VillainousBreakdown: This happens to her when she had failed to control Ho-Oh (and Yuri-Chan) because the Unown couldn't properly spell their names out. In other words, she lost because ''there is no dash Unown.'']]

* [[spoiler: DecoyProtagonist: After Francis' elimination, it seemed like he would get his own time to shine... until he screwed up the third challenge and lost the elimination battle against Rise.]]
* NiceGuy: He is chill and friendly to everyone, even Francis who was openly antagonizing him, saying that he wants to see his region burned down. However...
** BewareTheNiceOnes: ...He is aware that Francis wants him to feel miserable just for being from the Alola region so he is overly-friendly towards him ''on purpose'' to piss him off.
*** He has actually finally snapped at [[spoiler: Cassandra for her messy and unhygienic actions.]]
* [[spoiler: GracefulLoser: He is completely chill with ending up in the elimination battle and losing.]]

* NeatFreak: Despite being a laid-back SurferDude, he is this and he is disgusted that by the table manners of Cassandra.
* OddFriendship: [[spoiler: With Francis.]]
* PolitenessJudo: What he does to combat Francis' cruel verbal attacks. Thus far, Jackson had shut him down every time.

Francis is a Dragon-type Trainer from Saffron City, Kanto. His starter Pokémon is a Dratini. His final team is a Dragonite.
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Towards Cassandra. He fawns over her for being a woman from Kanto, having a Kanto Pokémon, and believes she looks like a Kanto goddess, while she is creeped out by his advances. [[spoiler: Turns out this was all for nothing, as Cassandra is technically a Johto native.]]
* BerserkButton: As expected from a Genwunner, he hates ''everything'' after the first generation, especially the Fairy-type and the Alola region.
* TheBully: Acts like this towards [[ShrinkingViolet Yuri-Chan]] just because she is a Fairy-Type trainer. Not so much to Jackson, as the latter can handle himself.
* FatBastard: He is the only fat person in the cast and he is by far the most unpleasant.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: There is not a single person in the story that liked Francis. [[spoiler: Although, he did gain a friend in Jackson after opening up about his dad.]]

* HateSink: So far, he only exists to be hated, and has exhibited very few positive characteristics.
* HumiliationConga: Oh boy. [[spoiler: First, he found out that his crush Cassandra technically isn't from Kanto, but actually Johto since she moved. Next, he lost a Pokémon match against Jackson, one of his most hated people. Next, after losing the battle against Jackson, he was suddenly attacked by a Noctowl, three Mareep, five Rattata, two Bellsprout, a Spearow, and six Hoppip. Next, April had decked him in the mud after his long rant after trying to get Cassandra again failed. Finally, Yuri-Chan, his other most hated person sent him home after beating him in an elimination battle.]]
* InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons: He is a Dragon-type trainer as he believes that it is the strongest type.
* {{Irony}}: Despite being such a proud Genwunner, [[EpicFail he didn't know that Slowpoke is a part of the original 151 until April pointed it out to him.]]
* JerkAss: Unless you are from Kanto or use Pokémon native to the region, he will not be nice to you. He is especially cruel to Yuri-Chan and Jackson.

* OddFriendship: [[spoiler: With Jackson.]]
* [[spoiler: ParentalNeglect: His father is constantly going on trips, leaving him and his mother at home.]]
* PetTheDog: He is surprisingly polite and friendly to anyone he believes is from Kanto. Unfortunately, the only person who was from Kanto and has a Kanto-native Pokémon is Cassandra who wants nothing to do with him. [[spoiler: In the end, after Cassandra revealed where she really originates from, any chance of him being polite to anyone perished. That is until he opened up to Jackson...]]
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He had called Jackson a retard and a faggot, and Cassandra a slut after being rejected. This had immediately got him called him out by [[BloodKnight Marta]], [[FemaleMisogynist Ruth]] and even [[JerkAss Seymour]].
* SmallNameBigEgo: Despite thinking himself as the "King of Battlers", his battling record had been quite low. [[spoiler: He had lost a battle to Jackson and later an elimination battle to Yuri-Chan. Granted, both people were trainers of types he was weak too. But considering that the Dragon-type has no weaknesses...]]
* StayInTheKitchen: He makes a comment about having one of the female contestants to make him a sandwich. While immediately met with uncomfortable reactions, [[{{Meido}} Keira]] takes this literally and actually gives him a sandwich.
* [[spoiler: VillainousBreakdown: Hoo boy... he did ''not'' take his loss to Yuri-Chan well at all.]]

* DishingOutDirt: He is a Rock-type trainer because he believes that the Rock type is the strongest type there is. Nothing more, nothing less.
* TheDitz: He is... not the brightest bulb in the box. His EstablishingCharacterMoment had him thinking that helicopters are powered up by Flying-type Pokémon, and when told the correct answer, he just waves it off. ''Despite later stating that he knows that buses using engines.''
* EpicFail: [[spoiler: Pretty much everything he did in the competition. He lost the first challenge when he fell for an obvious deception by Seymour, then lost the first duel when his Binacle got confused and beat itself into unconsciousness.]]

* AbusiveParents: His father was not only a criminal, but he was also an alcoholic with his mother being a shut-in. While it was never stated what his father actually did, it may probably be for the best.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He may have the biggest heart in this game, but certain things could set him off. Particularly Seymour and surprisingly, Samson, for the thought that Samson had stolen Gareth's net.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Downplayed as it didn't show up, but he strongly disliked criminals. Because of this, he is one of Seymour's biggest enemies and was ''terrified'' of Samson when hearing about his delinquent friends. Though he gets over this when he actually meets them.
* BigFun: Well, he is big in terms of size, not girth, but otherwise this trope plays straight with his boisterous yet friendly personality.

* BigGuyLittleGuy: The big guy with Gareth's little guy.
* DudeMagnet: He winds up gaining the affections of Samson and Logan over the course of the season.

* ActionGirl: She didn't start out this way due to her panicky nature, but she soon develops into this due to her Aikido training and she slowly-but-surely develops courage.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: She is picked on by the other Kimono Girls and purposefully kept with them just to make themselves feel better.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She became so determined to win the Kimono Challenge, that she had subdued ''and threatened'' Marta, who tried to sneak up on her to purposefully get her to throw her away.

* FormerlyFat: She used to be quite the large girl before attempting to become a Kimono Girl. However, the school's harsh training had slimmed her down.

* GrewASpine: She had finally told off the Kimono Girls who had horribly bullied her.
* GuileHero: She had been noticeably been cutthroat since the second half of the story, begging [[spoiler: everyone to let RISE as her partner for the Elite 4.

* HardWorkHardlyWorks: She had spent a good chunk of the Kimono Challenge trying to win so she could get an Eevee and even get the respect of the Kimono Girls. [[spoiler: However, she had lost to Logan and this created a wedge between their friendship.]]
* HonorBeforeReason: She wouldn't join in the fight against [[spoiler: Rise]] because of the said battleground in on holy grounds. Sweetie, your opponent is tearing off the tower, [[spoiler: trying to hypnotize a Legendary Pokémon ''and'' is a deeply-religious person herself and yet ''she'' is joining in the fight.]]
* LovableCoward: Most of the time she is either screaming, running or crying, but is otherwise a cutie.

* BrutalHonesty: After [[spoiler: watching his girlfriend, Marta get injured]], he has no qualms trying people how he felt without a joking tone to it.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Averted. He is the only one in the [[spoiler: final Seven]] who DOESN'T have a tragic one. Because of this, he believes that he doesn't deserve to win and [[spoiler: attempts to throw his Elimination match against Samson. Keyword being ''attempt.'']]
* DistressedDude: He, along with Vecepia had gotten kidnapped by Seymour and the Dark Riders until they were rescued by their fellow contestants.

** He also believes that Yuri-Chan being the butt of jokes from the Kimono Girls was unwarranted.
* TheGadfly: He loves getting under people's skin and watching their reactions.

* GreenThumb: He is a Grass-type trainer. Not surprising as he is a NatureLover.
* GrewASpine: It is stated that Logan has always done what his manager told him to do, but it wasn't until late in the season where we see how much of a controlling JerkAss the aforementioned manager was. When belittling him and trying to take him back, Logan said he had enough and he, along with everyone else (even [[EveryoneHasStandards Chris]]) yelling at him to back off.

* BadLiar: When he tries to hide the fact that his starter Pokémon is a [[spoiler: Zorua]]. But he does this so poorly, one-by-one, people were realizing the truth.

* PayEvilUntoEvil: [[spoiler: He and his friends are a group of vigilantes who fight criminals on a regular basis.]]
* PyrrhicVictory: He had won the Bug-Catching Challenge. However, he did it with a bug-catching net Seymour stole from Vecepia which she gave to Gareth.

* KnightInShiningArmor: From her outfit to her ideals to her name to even her [[MeaningfulName surname,]] she is this. For bonus points, her starter is [[CoolSword Honedge]].

* TwoGirlsToATeam: Is one of the two only girls in Wikstrom's training program, besides another girl named Yvonne. [[spoiler: Turns out, this is important information as not only was Yvonne supposedly missing for a year, she was also Keira.]]

Keira [[spoiler: or rather, Yvonne]] is a Ghost-type trainer from Hearthome City, Sinnoh. Her starter Pokémon is a Spiritomb. Her final is a Spiritomb and a Dusknoir.
* [[spoiler: {{Brainwashed}}: At first, it seemed like she was the BigBad, but it turns that she was another brainwashed pawn. Not only that, but she was ''Yvonne'', Ferrum's close friend all of these years.]]
* CoolShades: Her big dark glasses.
* ExtremeDoormat: She unquestioningly takes any order that anyone gives her. This leaves quite a few of her fellow competitors concerned.
* LipstickLesbian: A prim and proper maid that develops romantic feelings for Ferrum. [[spoiler: Or actually Ferrum's teammate, Yvonne, this whole time that had already developed feelings for Ferrum.]]
* LiteralMinded: She takes her job as a maid so seriously that when Vecepia had asked her to wait outside a store, she does exactly that. ''While standing in the middle of the sidewalk.''
* {{Meido}}: She is a ''very'' diligent maid.
* NeatFreak: As expected from someone who takes her job as a cleaner seriously, she's constantly cleaning any stains and messes she sees.
** An interesting variation. [[spoiler: Yvonne is ''not'' this, but even after being freed from brainwashing, that aspect of Keira had stuck with her.]]
* NiceGirl: She is respectable to everyone and is more than willing to complete their requests, even if it is [[JerkAss Francis.]]
* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler: With Ferrum.]]
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When Seymour and Simun were speaking out everyone's embarrassing secrets, she broke into tears (though more for the humiliation of her master than herself) and when Ferrum calmly told her to go back to her booth, [[ExtremeDoormat Keira]] ''refused'' and asked Ferrum to stay with her.
** Then again, [[spoiler: considering that she is actually Yvonne, this was never really her true personality.]]
** After being [[spoiler: rescued by the Unown and being called out by ''Simun'', she snaps out in a furious fashion that indicates that she had been holding it in all of this time.]]
* SoulPower: She is a Ghost-type trainer. Mainly so her Pokémon could look out for her and try to stop her from overworking through the night.
* {{Workaholic}}: Takes her job so passionately that she rarely sleeps which results in constant headaches and sometimes even passing out.

Vecepia is a Fighting-type trainer from Undella City, Unova. Her starter Pokémon is a Pancham. Her final team is a Pongoro.
* BareFistedMonk: She is a Fighting-type Pokémon. Because she is naïve and innocent, she needed bodyguards to protect her and using Fighting Pokémon may the best bodyguards.
* BribingYourWayToVictory: [[spoiler: Her dad pays off Chris to let her return to the game after her elimination.]]
** [[spoiler: Her dad tries to do this again the second time she had gotten eliminated, but Vecepia called him out and stated that despite him buying all of the expensive stuff for her, all she ever wanted was to spend time with him.]]
* ButtMonkey: Every episode save for Episode 5 she is attacked by a Water Pokémon. While the first time is PlayedForDrama, the rest of said attacks are more light-hearted.
* DistressedDamsel: She, along with Simun had gotten kidnapped by Seymour and the Dark Riders until they were rescued by their fellow contestants.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: While she doesn't mean to rub it in everyone's faces, she has a tendency to talk about all of the expensive things she has, irking most of the cast. Especially since there is a homeless boy in the cast.
* {{Meganekko}}: She wears a rather large pair of glasses.
* NiceGirl: Well, while she has a tendency to annoy the other contestants at the start, especially Gareth, she genuinely doesn't have a mean bone in her body.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: [[spoiler: Not her directly but after getting eliminated, she returns two episodes later after her father had bribed Chris into letting her back on the show. The other contestants (minus Monty and later Keira)... are not fond of this act.]]
* ShelteredAristocrat: She had spent most of her life living a sheltered life so because of this, her comments could come off as... selfish.
* SpoiledSweet: She is rich to the point of absurdity, but she is genuinely a cheerful and sweet girl.
* TakeMeInstead: She intends to pull this when [[spoiler: Gareth had became eliminated, mainly knowing that he deserved to be here more than her.]]

Marta is a Psychic-type trainer from Mahogany Town, Johto. Her starter Pokémon is a Natu. Her final team is a Xatu and a Mr. Mime.
* ActionGirl: She is always up for a good fight.
* [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling Annoying Older Sibling]]: Acts like this after she and [[spoiler: Logan]] make up. Though it is extremely light-hearted, especially in comparison to how she had treated him for the first half of the story.
* BerserkButton: She really hates pop stars, which made her be abrasive towards Logan. Even more so then Seymour. [[spoiler: Though we eventually find out that it wasn't pop stars she hates, it was Logan in particular as her brother.]]
* BigSisterBully: [[spoiler: Acts this way for the first half of the season towards Logan due to her blaming him for their mother's death. Fortunately, they made up.]]
* BloodKnight: Whether it is her doing the punching, watching a fight and even having ''herself'' being thrown, she loves a good fight.
* BrutalHonesty: She wastes no time telling Logan how much his music sucks, never mind that he was a famous celebrity or the fact he literally just arrived. [[spoiler: Although, it's unknown if Logan being her brother was the reason for her hating his music.]]
* DumbMuscle: She's tough and combative, but not the sharpest tool in the shed. [[spoiler: However, she was the first one to figure out Samson has a Zorua.]]
* HeadPet: Her then Natu and current Xatu likes to nest in her hair.
* HeelFaceTurn: Not that she's entirely a force a good, but Logan did tell Yuri-Chan that Marta was [[spoiler: a former member of Team Plasma.]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicSacrifice: She had been pulled out of the game after saving everyone from a bomb and getting herself blown up as a result. While she didn't die, she was forced to be medically evacuated out of the game.]]
* HiddenDepths: While her thinking is simple, to put it mildly, she knows that [[spoiler: Samson's starter is actually a Zorua.]]
** She's also fairly good at battle tactics despite coming off as foolish most of the time. [[spoiler: When she was in an elimination battle against Vecepia, she wins in the quickest and easiest battle yet. And unlike Rise's win against Jackson, she doesn't even take advantage of her Natu's type advantage to do it.]]
* [[spoiler: NonGameplayElimination: Was removed from the game after being blown up due to a bomb.]]
* OfficialCouple: Eventually becomes this with Simun.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She's not very big, but she's quite strong and aggressive.
* PsychicPowers: She is a Psychic-type trainer. As ironic as it sounds, she has an interesting ideology behind it. By focusing all of her battle tactics into the pure physical onslaught, Marta believes she always holds the element of surprise closely at her side.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: During Episode 5, there was a Challenge that involves taking care of Pokémon eggs. [[spoiler: She assumed that just like the Slowpokes, they would be fake so she ''threw her egg into the ocean to see it would break''. While she WAS right about the eggs being fake, she had little reason to think so and automatically lost the challenge and was automatically in the Bottom 2.]]
* [[spoiler: SiblingRivalry: With Logan, with the two of them blaming each other for abandoning their sick mother and leaving her to die.]]

* FarmGirl: She works on a ranch.
* FemaleMisogynist: Views other girls as lesser, and in general derides femininity.
* FreudianExcuse: Her low opinion of women comes from being bullied by other girls for not being traditionally feminine.

* NonElemental: She is a Normal-type trainer. Mainly because she had grown up raising Herdier. Also, she believes that having nothing you're strong against makes you fight harder in battle.
* PinkIsForSissies: She doesn't like stuff she considers girly and tries to avoid bunking with feminine girls.
* ThrowTheDogABone: During the fight between the contestants and the Dark Riders, she had gotten asked out by one of the enemies. She was genuinely flattered by that.

* {{Asexuality}}: He is revealed to be asexual in the loser episode.
* [[spoiler: AssholeVictim: Essentially one for Rise, the actual Unown thief. When he gets angered when Simun inadvertently calls him a nerd, Seymour almost chokes the jokester until he is caught by the others. When Simun is asked what happened, he decides to make up Seymour confessing to being the thief. Seymour tries to tell the others this never happened, but it's too late as he's forced into an elimination battle and loses against Samson and is arrested by Officer Nancy.]]
* BenevolentBoss: He is surprisingly this with the Dark Riders. Despite getting annoyed by their antics, [[SurroundedByIdiots and rightfully so]], he genuinely cares about their well-being.

* FourEyesZeroSoul: He's a skilled mathematician with spectacles who also happens to be the leader of a rebellious gang with no qualms about hurting others.
* FreudianExcuse: He used to be a normal bookworm who got into a gang. However, the said gang was using him just so he could do their homework. Because of this, he hates being pushed around.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He is this for the cast. Not even Samson and April want anything to do with him due to his mistreatment of them.
* GeniusBruiser: He looks like your textbook nerd. However, he is much stronger and tougher than he looks.
* HiddenDepths: He is actually quite skilled in mathematics and prefers to hide it behind under his streetwise wit.
* JerkAss: He spends most of his screen-time belittling others.
* KickTheDog: He had hired thugs to sabotage the other contestants ''by smashing their Pokémon eggs.'' [[spoiler: Granted, said eggs were fake, but nobody knew that.]]
* KickTheMoralityPet: April was the only one who was nice to him (though she initially attempted to get with him just to learn his weaknesses and take him down). [[spoiler: However, when he learned that she was initially using him (something that she ''admitted'' outright, he had thrown the challenge just to face her in the duel and beat her. He even made a cruel comment about her DisappearedDad status, although it's implied he regrets it.]]
* ObviouslyEvil: After he catches heat for his stunt at the Radio Tower, he doesn't even pretend to play fair anymore.
* PetTheDog: He genuinely cares about his gang, the Dark Riders and even [[spoiler: rode with Marta to a hospital out of gratitude for helping him rescue his gang.]]
* SurroundedByIdiots: Despite the hype revolving around his gang, they... aren't competent as they originally seem.
* TeensAreMonsters: He's the leader of an infamous gang, and he's quite sadistic in his own right.

* DisappearedDad: He was tragically killed in a stunt accident that April sadly contributed to.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When she heard that Seymour is the leader of a certain gang, she became extremely freaked out.
* PoisonousPerson: She is a Poison-type trainer. As a daredevil, she believes that it is PERFECT for her.
* RollerbladeGood: She is rarely seen without her rollerblades.
* ThrillSeeker: She is a daredevil. In fact, her EstablishingCharacterMoment had her skating through traffic and causing three non-lethal car crashes.

* BigCreepyCrawlies: He is a Bug-type trainer. Mainly because he has the ability to talk to bugs.
* BigGuyLittleGuy: The little guy to Monty's big guy.
* CreepyChild: Considering he talks to bugs, appears without notice, and stares silently at people...
* DeadpanSnarker: While he doesn't speak much, a good chunk of his speaking time could be quite snarky.
* [[DefrostingIceQueen Defrosting Ice King]]: He initially dislikes Vecepia for being super-rich and unwittingly flaunting it around. However, he gives her the benefit of the doubt when he saw her caring for an injured Venonat. He ended up being this way towards Vecepia again when [[spoiler: she came back into the game after her father had brought her way back into the game. He ends up forgiving her again though.]]
* MeaningfulName[=/=]PunnyName: Gareth '''Roach'''. You know, considering he's the bug-type trainer.

* PestController: Not just that he's a Bug-type trainer, but the fact he can specifically talk to bugs and understand them.

* TheSneakyGuy: The stealthiest of the trainers with a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: For some reason, he can communicate the Bug-Type Pokémon and ONLY Bug-types.

* DeathOrGloryAttack: [[spoiler: As a desperation move in her sudden death battle against Gareth, she has Voltorb use Self-Destruct in an attempt to take out Gareth's Sewaddle evolving to a Swadloon. Swadloon's defense is just enough to weather the attack, resulting in Cassandra essentially eliminating herself.]]
* TheDitz: Well, she isn't as dumb as Carl, but she doesn't seem to be that smart. She had kept failing a quiz full of very easy Pokémon questions.
* GenkiGirl: She is enthusiastic and energetic in nearly everything she does.

* [[spoiler: BigBad: She is the thief and the one behind the Unown.]]
* [[spoiler: BigBadFriend: To Yuri-Chan.]]
* [[spoiler: BitchInSheepsClothing: Not only is she the thief, but she didn't really have that much confidence with Yuri-Chan just like she said back in the game.]]

* [[spoiler: {{Hypocrite}}: Despite her deeply ridiculous views, she has no problem using the Ecruteak Tower, a sacred building as a battleground.]]

* NiceGirl: She was willing to help Carl in the first challenge even if it meant it harmed her chances of staying. She has also taken a somewhat big sister approach to Yuri-Chan.

* [[spoiler: OutsideContextVillain: The bulk of her villainy took place after her elimination and had nothing to do with the competition at all.]]
* [[spoiler: PetTheDog: Despite being an unapologetic SinisterMinister, she did do some generous things that weren't for the sake of fooling others. A prime example is going out of her way to help Carl, despite knowing it would hurt her own plans for staying.]]
* PlayingWithFire: She is a Fire-type trainer. As expected from a clan that worships a Fire-type legendary.
* [[PreacherMan Preacher Woman]]: She is the upcoming head of the Solfire Clan, a group that religiously worships Ho-Oh.
** [[spoiler: SinisterMinister: Turns out that she was not only the BigBad but wants to control Ho-Oh, the Pokémon she worships for herself.]]
* [[spoiler: PsychicPowers: Not her herself, but she was the one who was controlling the Unown which are Psychic-type Pokémon.]]
* TokenReligiousTeammate: Well, she is the only one who has a deep religious belief.
* [[spoiler: VillainousBreakdown: This happens to her when she had failed to control Ho-Oh (and Yuri-Chan) because the Unown couldn't properly spell their names out. In other words, she lost because ''there is no dash Unown.'']]
* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler: Yeah, being the surprise villain will do that to you.]]

* NiceGuy: He is chill and friendly to everyone, even Francis who was openly antagonizing him, saying that he wants to see his region burned down. However...
** BewareTheNiceOnes: ...He is aware that Francis wants him to feel miserable just for being from the Alola region so he is overly-friendly towards him ''on purpose'' to piss him off.
*** He has actually finally snapped at [[spoiler: Cassandra for her messy and unhygienic actions.]]
* [[spoiler: GracefulLoser: He is completely chill with ending up in the elimination battle and losing.]]
* AnIcePerson: He is an Ice-type trainer. Ignoring the obvious {{pun}} on how chill he is, he just finds the type refreshing.

Francis is a Dragon-type Trainer from Saffron City, Kanto. His starter Pokémon is a Dratini. His final team is a Dragonite.
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Towards Cassandra. He fawns over her for being a woman from Kanto, having a Kanto Pokémon, and believes she looks like a Kanto goddess, while she is creeped out by his advances. [[spoiler: Turns out this was all for nothing, as Cassandra is technically a Johto native.]]
* BerserkButton: As expected from a Genwunner, he hates ''everything'' after the first generation, especially the Fairy-type and the Alola region.
* TheBully: Acts like this towards [[ShrinkingViolet Yuri-Chan]] just because she is a Fairy-Type trainer. Not so much to Jackson, as the latter can handle himself.
* FatBastard: He is the only fat person in the cast and he is by far the most unpleasant.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: There is not a single person in the story that liked Francis. [[spoiler: Although, he did gain a friend in Jackson after opening up about his dad.]]
* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler: His father is never around and going off visiting other regions OTHER than Kanto and when his parents divorced, his father didn't even attempt to get custody of him.]]
* HateSink: So far, he only exists to be hated, and has exhibited very few positive characteristics.
* HumiliationConga: Oh boy. [[spoiler: First, he found out that his crush Cassandra technically isn't from Kanto, but actually Johto since she moved. Next, he lost a Pokémon match against Jackson, one of his most hated people. Next, after losing the battle against Jackson, he was suddenly attacked by a Noctowl, three Mareep, five Rattata, two Bellsprout, a Spearow, and six Hoppip. Next, April had decked him in the mud after his long rant after trying to get Cassandra again failed. Finally, Yuri-Chan, his other most hated person sent him home after beating him in an elimination battle.]]
* InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons: He is a Dragon-type trainer as he believes that it is the strongest type.
* {{Irony}}: Despite being such a proud Genwunner, [[EpicFail he didn't know that Slowpoke is a part of the original 151 until April pointed it out to him.]]
* JerkAss: Unless you are from Kanto or use Pokémon native to the region, he will not be nice to you. He is especially cruel to Yuri-Chan and Jackson.

* OddFriendship: [[spoiler: With Jackson.]]

* PetTheDog: He is surprisingly polite and friendly to anyone he believes is from Kanto. Unfortunately, the only person who was from Kanto and has a Kanto-native Pokémon is Cassandra who wants nothing to do with him. [[spoiler: In the end, after Cassandra revealed where she really originates from, any chance of him being polite to anyone perished. That is until he opened up to Jackson...]]
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He had called Jackson a retard and a faggot, and Cassandra a slut after being rejected. This had immediately got him called him out by [[BloodKnight Marta]], [[FemaleMisogynist Ruth]] and even [[JerkAss Seymour]].
* SmallNameBigEgo: Despite thinking himself as the "King of Battlers", his battling record had been quite low. [[spoiler: He had lost a battle to Jackson and later an elimination battle to Yuri-Chan. Granted, both people were trainers of types he was weak too. But considering that the Dragon-type has no weaknesses...]]
* StayInTheKitchen: He makes a comment about having one of the female contestants to make him a sandwich. While immediately met with uncomfortable reactions, [[{{Meido}} Keira]] takes this literally and actually gives him a sandwich.
* [[spoiler: VillainousBreakdown: Hoo boy... he did ''not'' take his loss to Yuri-Chan well at all.]]
* [[spoiler: WhenYouComingHomeDad: Deconstructed. His father's constant trips to other regions resulted in Francis developing a hatred of said regions.]]

* DishingOutDirt: He is a Rock-type trainer because he believes that the Rock type is the strongest type there is. Nothing more, nothing less.
* TheDitz: He is... not the brightest bulb in the box. His EstablishingCharacterMoment had him thinking that helicopters are powered up by Flying-type Pokémon, and when told the correct answer, he just waves it off. ''Despite later stating that he knows that buses using engines.''
* EpicFail: [[spoiler: Pretty much everything he did in the competition. He lost the first challenge when he fell for an obvious deception by Seymour, then lost the first duel when his Binacle got confused and beat itself into unconsciousness.]]
