A 22 (maybe) year old Ex-Rocket. After his best friend, a Golbat named Ace, was killed by a police Arcanine during the Takeover at Goldenrod, he left the criminal organization and fled to Hoenn to become a coordinator. Unfortunately he was found out and for the next 4 years he was on the run from the authorities trying to find freedom. In the RP proper he met up with a sweet Pokemon Ranger in Ecruteak named Sakura. Sakura saw good in Des and managed to pardon him. Des now works for Interpol, using his talents to uphold the law and atone for his past sins. Generally a nice guy, Des loves to meet new people and becomes very protective of others. As of late he has been feeling under-appreciated for his efforts in trying to preserve peace in the world.
- Aloof Ally: Has spent A LOT of time offscreen.
- The Atoner: He now works for the League to make up for his past crimes.
- Author Avatar: Played straight and deconstructed. During the April Fool's 2013 posts he and his author switched places, reversing their roles.

- Badass Longcoat: Wears a black trench coat.
- Boxed Crook

- Hidden Depths: See Real Men Wear Pink below.
- Hopeless Suitor: This for Hikari.
- Informed Ability: Apparently he was a coordinator.

- Killed Off for Real: Gets killed by Sed during Orre.
- Manchild: Can act rather childish sometimes.

- Put on a Bus: His author often goes on long hiatuses, but he does pop up from time to time.
- Rage Against the Author: When he and his author traded places he sent a pack of Growlithe at him.
- A Maybe example. Fought his maybe author, maybe Nega atop Spear Pillar. It isn't exactly made clear.
- Real Men Wear Pink: He's an Ex-Rocket who likes cute adorable Grass-Types and sewing dresses. No seriously.
- Teleportation with Drawbacks: His Fourth Wall Manipulator allows him to travel to any point in and outside of canon. It has a tendency to suddenly activate at inconvenient times.
- Verbal Tic: Eh! What are you goin' 'bout? I don't gotta tick!
- Played by: Darker Shining
On her first day as a trainer, DS had a brief encounter with Mesprit at Lake Verity. Soon afterwards, she found that in addition to taking the gym challenge so she could one day become the champion, DS found herself facing a much bigger challenge: Taking down the villanous Team Galactic. With the help of the Lake Trio and Cynthia, DS eventually confronted Cyrus in the Distortion world, and after calming down Giratina, managed to put a stop to his plans of destroying and recreating the universe.
After challenging the Elite Four and becoming the Sinnoh champion, DS spent most of her time working on her Pokédex, exploring the rest of Sinnoh and challenging the Battle Frontier. One day, she heard that strange things had been happening at Canalave city, and ended up meeting with a group of trainers who had already taken care of the problem. Having nothing better to do, and wanting to make some new friends, DS decided to join them.
Since then, DS has been turned into an Eevee, helped fight and kill two glitch Pokémon, earned the eight Unova gym badges, and saved Kyurem from Ghetsis amongst many other things.
First Appearance: Page 140
- Becoming the Mask: Mentions that she during the time she was fighting Team Galactic, she pretended to be a lot more confident person than she really was. Apparently, some of it rubbed off on her as she did become somewhat more confident later on.
- Beware the Nice Ones: Almost never gets angry, but when she does, she can actually be pretty scary. This is besides the fact that she's a Sinnoh Champion and a fairly skilled trainer.
- Blind Without 'Em: DS cant see well without her glasses on, and this becomes a minor problem as an Eevee since her glasses can't stay on her head.
- Catchphrase: While not necessarily a catch phrase, she does seem to use the phrase "Everything will/is going to be okay" a lot.
- Determinator: In the alternate timeline arc, after being imprisoned with the other legendaries in another dimension.
- Disney Death: Was seemingly killed by Primal Dialga in the alternate timeline arc in a flashback, but it turns out he just sent her to the other dimension where the legendaries had been imprisoned instead.
- Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: While DS isn't a Heart of Gold, she is generally good hearted.
- The Heart: Appears to have developed into this role somewhat in later arcs.
- Heroic BSoD: Had a rather serious one after the timeline changed, nearly pushing her into a Despair Event Horizon.
- I Just Want to Have Friends: Part of the reason why she became a Pokémon trainer.
- Mercy Kill: Is killed by Velvet in the PMD-B timeline before she tries to change the world using the Lustrous Orb, as per their pact to stop DS from going mad with power.
- Morality Chain: Seems to be this for her Liepard, Artemis.
- Morphic Resonance:
- Keeps her glasses after being transformed into an Eevee as well as her green eyes.
- And in her Espeon form, she has green eyes instead of purple like normal Espeon have.
- Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant: Has shades of this whenever she gets angry, which thankfully, does not happen a lot.
- Pals with Jesus:
- Met Mesprit at Lake Verity when she first became a trainer, and the two of them seem to be pretty good friends.
- She has also befriended Kyurem in the Unova arc, and a Latias during the Oblivia arc.
- Picky Eater: Claims to be this, although since we rarely if ever see her actually eat...
- Power Incontinence: Suffered from this upon evolving her Pokémon form into Espeon initially.
- Psychic Powers: As an Espeon.
- Sanity Slippage: Suffers from this during the Kalos arc due to the events of the Orre arc, becoming paranoid and depressed.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Ends up leaving the J-Team due to feeling unable to be safe anymore around them.
- Socially Awkward Hero: Not as much as Tagg is, but it's there.
- Team Mom: Does her best to keep the group together during difficult times, and does her best to offer comfort and support to those of her friends who need it.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: A minor case during the Kalos arc, as she grew bitter and resentful towards the rest of the J-Team because of how their mere existence and her association with them would make it so she could never feel safe anywhere.
◊HotStuff (Infernape, female)
HotStuff was the Chimchar DS received from Professor Rowan when she started her journey. Already from the moment the two first met, the two developed a strong bond. HotStuff has since then evolved into a powerful Infernape, her battle specialty being physical attacks.- Bare-Fisted Monk: Part Fighting type.
- Dishing Out Dirt: Knows Earthquake.
- Playing with Fire: Part Fire type.
- Put on a Bus: Along with the rest of DS' Sinnoh team, although it's more "DS got on a plane to Unova while they stayed in Sinnoh". They all come back when the trainers go back to Sinnoh for the GC.
- Shock and Awe: Knows Thunder Punch.
- Spot Light Stealing Squad: On DS' Sinnoh team, she and Velvet seems to get more screentime than DS' other Pokémon. Possibly justified as they both consider themselves to be DS' favourite out of the six, and therefore fight for DS' attention.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: With Velvet.
Briar Rose (Roserade, female)
DS caught Briar Rose (sometimes called just "Rose" for short) as a Budew on Route 204 pretty early on in her journey, becoming the second member of her main Sinnoh team. Briar Rose is quite cheerful, likes to look on the bright side of life and often dozes off. Her speciality in battles are mainly special attacks.- Cloudcuckoolander: Shows mild signs of this at times.
- Green Thumb: Part Grass type.
- Poisonous Person: Part Poison type.
- Put on a Bus: From Sinnoh till the Gold Conference.
Wings (Crobat, male)
DS caught Wings as a Zubat on Route 203 pretty early on during her journey, and he became the third member of DS' main Sinnoh team. He is somewhat indifferent to most things, but he really does care about DS and his other team mates a lot. He also possesses Super-Strength. His main speciality in battles is physical attacks, combined with his incredible speed.- Flight: Can fly.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Sort of. He pretends to be indifferent to nearly everything, but deep down he does actually care.
- Put on a Bus: From Sinnoh till the Gold Conference.
- Super-Strength: Claims to have this, and states that that's why he is able to carry DS from one place in Sinnoh to another without getting tired. He later proves it by picking up Kyogre and casually tossing it aside!
Sparq (Pachirisu, male)
An energetic Pachirisu that DS caught at Valley Windworks, who became the fourth member of DS' main Sinnoh team. His pick-up ability has provided DS with several items (often leaving her with more than she really needs) and once he learned super fang and was taught thunderwave, he became quite good at helping DS catch Pokémon by combining those two moves.- Green Thumb: Knows Seed Bomb.
- Motor Mouth: Talks really quickly.
- Official Couple: With Swindle.
- One-Steve Limit: The whole Sinnoh team is based off DS' player's Platinum game. In Platinum, her Pachirisu's name is Wally, but since there was already another Pokemon with that name in the group, she instead used the name she used for her Pachirisu in Pearl.
- Put on a Bus: From Sinnoh till the Gold Conference.
- Shock and Awe: Electric type.
- Sweet Tooth: Loves sweets.
Velvet (Espeon, female)
Velvet was originally an Eevee who was temporarily living with Bebe in Hearthome City until someone who could better look after her would come along. When DS came along, Velvet happily joined her, becoming the fifth member of her main Sinnoh team. Due to being rather clingy and constantly seeking DS' attention to begin with, HotStuff became rather jealous of her, starting a rivalry between the two Pokémon over which of them DS' liked better. Velvet mellowed out somewhat later on, and she and HotStuff have become pretty good friends. Velvet's battle speciality is special attacks.- Action Mom: Velvet has three kids (a female Glaceon, a male Flareon and a male Jolteon), although they have only made one appearance as minor characters.
- Psychic Powers: Psychic type.
- Put on a Bus: From Sinnoh till the Gold Conference.
- Spot Light Stealing Squad: See the entry on HotStuff above.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: With HotStuff.
Silvermist (Lumineon, female)
DS caught Silvermist as a Finneon on Route 205, completing her Sinnoh team. Silvermist is somewhat soft spoken, and wishes for everyone to get along. If HotStuff and Velvet get into a particularly heated fight, she will often take it into her own fins to stop them. Her battle speciality is mainly special attacks.- An Ice Person: Knows Ice Beam.
- Making a Splash: Water type.
- Poisonous Person: Knows Toxic.
- Put on a Bus: From Sinnoh till the Gold Conference.
Chase (Unfezant, male)
When she started a new journey in Unova, Chase was the first Pokémon DS met in Nuvema town. After healing the young Pidove's injured wing, he happily decided to join up with DS and become the first member of her new team. He gradually gained more experience and confidence as he evolved. His battle style focuses mainly on physical attacks, but he also knows a few wind based attacks.- Blow You Away: Part Flying type.
- Flight: Can fly.
- Interspecies Romance: Secretly had a huge crush on his trainer, DS.
- Line-of-Sight Name: Sort of, as DS named him after watching a Ninetales chase Daisy around.
- Odd Couple: Appears to have shades of this with Goggles since the AU arc.
- Only Sane Man: Is definetly the least quirky member of DS' Unova team.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: After evolving into Unfeazent, it doesn't last long.
Ribbons (Gothitelle, female)
Before leaving for Unova, DS received an egg from the Castle Valet Darach, which he had received from Caitlin. The egg hatched into a shy little Gothita, who became the second member of DS' Unova team. As the journey went on, Ribbons gradually opened up more, eventually losing her shyness upon evolving the first time. Her battle speciality is special attacks.
- Creepy Child: Being a psychic type that is constantly staring at something only she can see may put her into this category.
- Power Glows: The ribbon like feelers on her body glow whenever she uses her psychic powers.
- Psychic Powers: Psychic type.
- Ret-Gone: Was never born in the alternate timeline arc.
- Shock and Awe: Knows Charge Beam.
- Shrinking Violet: As a Gothita. She seems to be a lot less shy after evolving.
Artemis (Liepard, female)
A Purrloin DS met on Unova Route 2, who tried to steal food from the group. Chase recognized her as the very same Purrloin that was responsible for the wing injury he had when DS first met him. Despite her attitude, DS decided to catch her, and she became the third member of DS' Unova team. During her travels with DS, Artemis' attitude did improve a lot, even if she still wishes to some day Take Over the World. Her battle style relies mainly on speed and physical attacks.- Casting a Shadow: Dark type.
- Cats Are Mean: At first, though she got nicer later on.
- Ear Notch: Ends up with a small one on her left ear while saving Chase from an angry Beartic.
- Evil Laugh: Nya-ha-ha-ha!
- Jerkass: At first before developing into a Jerk with a Heart of Gold.
- My God, What Have I Done?: When she regains her memories in the AU arc shortly after Mira dies.
- Sanity Slippage: Appears to suffering from this during the alternate timeline arc, as things get gradually go more and more wrong for her and Scolipede.
- Shipper on Deck: DS' entire Unova team is this for Wolf and DS, but Artemis is the one who seems to feel the strongest about it.
- Take Over the World: Claims that this is her goal, although it's really not clear how exactly she plans on doing this. In the alternate timeline arc, she and Scolipede have somehow succeeded, but after the arc ends, she swears off it.
- That Poor Cat: Has been a victim of this trope several times.
Goggles (Krookodile, male)
Looking for a Sandile with the Moxie ability for her team on Unova Route 4, DS quickly found exactly what she was looking for. However, the Sandile she found was rather odd, and pretty much ignored DS while excitedly talking about all the sand in the desert. DS still chose to capture him, and he became the fourth member of DS' Unova team. Goggles hasn't changed much since DS first met him, apart from developing an interest in female Pokémon upon evolving for the first time, and truly becoming a Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass upon evolving the second time. His battle style focuses on physical attacks.- Big Eater: With a hint of Extreme Omnivore as he has on a few occasions expressed the desire to eat things that clearly aren't meant to be eaten.
- Casting a Shadow: Dark type.
- Cloudcuckoolander: Goggles' hold on reality is questionable.
- The Cloud Cuckoolander Was Right: Has had at least two moments of this so far.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Is far more skilled a battler than you'd think at first glance.
- Dishing Out Dirt: Part Ground type.
- Improbable Weapon User: In the alternate timeline arc, he sometimes uses an umbrella as a weapon.
- O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Aside from occasionally acting less goofy in serious moments, he also seems to think more clearly and rationally when he's depressed, such as his Heroic BSoD during the Oblivia arc when he found out that Rebecca the Serperior (whom he had a crush on) was already in a relationship with another Pokémon.
Crush (Carracosta, male)
DS revived Crush from a fossil she found in the desert, and the young Tirtouga became the fifth member of her Unova team. Crush had no memory of his previous life until the Oblivia arc and exhibited canine behaviour for reasons unknown. Despite being part water type, he was somewhat scared of water to begin with, but got over it once DS started surfing on him. Doesn't seem to have any particularly speciality when it comes to battles, and whatever attacks that best fit the situation.- All Animals Are Dogs: For reasons unknown, his behaviour is similar to that of a dog despite being a turtle. This is lampshaded several times by other characters commenting on his odd behaviour.
- Dishing Out Dirt: part rock type
- Forgotten Fallen Friend: Quetzal the Archeops, until Crush regains part of his memory during the Oblivia arc.
- Fossil Revival: Was revived from a fossil DS found in the desert on Route 4.

- Raised by Wolves: Was raised by a long extinct species of canine Pokémon.
Mira (Mienshao, female)
Mira was a young Mienfoo who had been waiting for a trainer with a Mind of Crystal, whom she had seen in a vision a while ago. After waiting at the Dragonspiral tower for a while, Mira eventually ventured down to Twist mountain when she felt as if the trainer she had been waiting for was getting closer. After witnessing DS and Artemis saving Chase from an angry Beartic, Mira decided that DS was the trainer she has waited for, and became the sixth member of DS' Unova team. She focuses mainly on physical attacks, but also has a pretty powerful Aura Sphere attack.- Back from the Dead: Was killed in the AU, and was restored to life when the timeline returned to normal.
- Bare-Fisted Monk: Is a Fighting type.
- Dying Declaration of Love: Confesses her love to Artemis in the AU just before dying from a stab wound.
- Face–Heel Turn: Is Artemis' personal assistant and bodyguard in the alternate timeline arc.

- My Master, Right or Wrong: During the AU she is loyal to Artemis above all else, even the mons of Dragonspiral Tower.
- Taking the Bullet: Does this for Artemis when Napoleon tries to stab her.
Marionette (Banette, female)
DS raised Marionette with the purpose of helping her find certain items held by wild Pokémon with her Frisk ability, and then use Trick to obtain those items. Marionette is somewhat odd, seeming to consider the nail she uses in her Curse attack to be her friend. Her battle style is rather different from most of DS' Pokémon, as she relies somewhat on moves such as Curse and Will-o-Wisp and so on. She does possess a pretty powerful Shadow Claw attack.- Companion Cube: The large nail she carries.
- Emotion Eater: Eats vengeful feelings.
- Soul Power: Ghost type.
Jayna (Flygon, female)
Jayna was a Trapinch from the Rockground Pokéspot in Orre. She was caught by DS' father while he was on a business trip in Orre, who sent her to DS as a present after she had defeated the Sinnoh Elite Four and gotten the National Pokédex. With DS' training, Jayna eventually evolved into a powerful Flygon. Her battle speciality is physical attacks.- Dishing Out Dirt: Part Ground type.

- Our Dragons Are Different: A Dragon type lacewing.
- Playing with Fire: Knows Fire Punch.
Odette (Swanna, female)

- Happily Adopted: Loves her two mommies.

Tulip (Lilligant, female)
A Petilil that DS caught in Pinwheel Forest while she and most of the other trainers went to Unova for a week when Tagg brought them along on a Tynamo expedition.- All Love Is Unrequited: Had a crush on Treeo, but got rejected.

- Green Thumb: Grass type.
- No-Sell: To attacks that cause confusion as she has the Own Tempo ability.
- Verbal Tic: Ends most of her sentences with "yes". It seems to run in the family.
She also isn't aware that she does this.
Swindle (Emolga, female)
An Emolga that showed up a few times on the Orange Islands, who proved to be good at stealing things that were downright impossible to steal. She created some trouble for the trainers when she took away Tagg's cynical side, and after it was returned, DS quickly threw a Fast Ball at her to prevent her from messing with his mind again.- Fangirl: Of a Gardevoir who is also an Impossible Thief.

First Appearance: Page 1

- Brought Down to Normal: Has had his psychic powers sapped by his AU self at the end of the AU arc.
- Deadpan Snarker: Shows shades of this at times.

- Idiot Hero: Sort of. He's not stupid, per say, but he tend to act before he thinks quite often.
- I Just Want to Be Special: It's been hinted at several times that Joshua was very insecure as a child, and did things like nickname himself and dye his hair just to differentiate himself from his peers. It worked too well.
- The Lancer: Not for the Five-Man Band, but to Jane, since they are pretty much opposite in every way.
- Psychic Powers: Used to have these early in the RP. Gone as of the end of the AU.
- Shock and Awe: His Pokemon form is a Pikachu, and later a Raichu.

Kudzerpent (Kudz) (Serperior, Male)
Meme/ Anon (Smeargle, Male)

- For the Evulz: His and his family's reasons for tormenting every Trainer they are caught by with their false madness.
- Obfuscating Insanity: He was faking insanity for over 3 years to try and drive Gamer to madness. He would have succeeded, too, had Gamer not met the rest of the Trainers and gotten therapy as a result of the team's adventures.
- Played by: Calamity Jane
Jane grew up on a Torchic Farm in Lavaridge Town, with a sickly father and a large and in charge mother. She spent most of her childhood wrestling Combusken, which gave her superhuman strength and tolerance for pain and heat. About halfway into her journey she went to Johto, got all the badges, then started to get some badges in Kanto before deciding that battling wasn't really what she wanted to do with the rest of her life. After quite a bit of soul-searching, Jane eventually decided that she would work for The Pokédex - Extended Fanon Edition.
Jane was on her way to Sinnoh when she met up with some random people in an airport in Johto. They traveled together since they were going in the same direction anyway, along the way making new friends and making their group even bigger. Since then, Jane has been turned into a Ralts, helped fight and kill two glitch Pokémon, caught the entire Regi Trio (and their Trio Master) and befriended the Legendary Pokémon Palkia, amongst many other things.

Jeremy
◊ was sucked into the Mindscape by accident as he passed through the inn and taking up the offer to travel with the chaotic group, even after hearing just some of the stuff they'd been getting into.
- Butt-Monkey: He's basically this to a good chunk of his Pokemon team.
- Damaged Soul: According to his Lampent, he won't live past 30.
- Dark and Troubled Past: It's hinted at.
- Flat "What": He hasn't exactly questioned anything. In fact, this is the response to one of the weirder things he'd seen.
- Sure, Let's Go with That: He doesn't question the Mindscape, how these people have gotten into this much trouble or anything, he just...runs with it.
Lampent (Female)
- Manchild: She's a Lampent, but she still has the mentality of a child, even so far as calling Jeremy "Daddy."
Seviper (male)
- The Foil: To Infernape. He's calm, rational, treats Jeremy with respect and tries to think of sensible answers than jump into the fray.
Dewott (Male)
- The Stoic: He has not said a single word. At all.
- Played by: Mind Gamer
A 17-year old trainer from Lavaridge, Hoenn. While born and raised by his Nurse Joy mother, he always hoped to get out and experience the world like his trainer father. A tactician before a battler, and a medic before either, Ken doesn't have much in the way of real world experience thanks to being held back by his mother, but is trying to learn more wherever he goes.Despite not being the best in combat, he's a trained medic and very analytical... if a bit hardheaded like his father.
- Awesome Backpack: Subverted. While he does have a backpack, it's just for carrying. And has no Hammerspace, much to Ken's chagrin.
- Bag of Holding: Averted. Ken has and will eventually run out of medical supplies if he uses too much without stocking up at a Pokemart, and has so many different items he needs to use they require multiple different bags.
- Dark and Troubled Past: Zigzagged. At first, the trope is parodied with his mother's tendency to Drag him into Drag. Then it appears to be played straight with the emotional pain his family went through in his early days. But his entire history hasn't even been revealed yet, and it will continue to twist and turn.
- Forced Transformation: Within a few minutes of his introduction, Ken is immediately Shard-ported out of his human, 6'5" form to the small and meek form of a Ralts. Then he gets Dragged into Drag by his new body, when he evolves into Kirlia.
- The Medic: Trained to perform first aid on mons and humans alike...
- Combat Medic: ...And in turn knows a lot of ways to hurt them in fights if needed.
- The Strategist: In battles.

Dr Lewis Smith, Pokemon Psychologist, grew up in Jubilife, Sinnoh. He graduated at 19 with a doctorate in psychology, and decided to attempt Pokemon training. 6 months afterwards, he changed his career, and decided to set up as a psychiatrist in Canalave. Recently went on an... eventful... holiday to Johto.
Dr Lewis doesn't get many tropes. Yet.
- Only Sane Man: He's convinced he is the only one.
- Played by: Luke 924
A 23 year old Pokémon Trainer from New Bark Town in Johto. Luke started his journey two years before the events of the story with a Totodile named Lake.
Luke and his Pokémon journeyed across Johto and Kanto, having several mis-adventures that involved, amongst other things, disbanding a Team Rocket remnant after they attacked the Goldenrod Radio Tower and finding out he was the one destined to bring Ho-oh back to the land of Johto, Luke eventually challenged and won against the Pokémon league, earning the title of a Pokémon Champion.
Looking for stronger Trainers to fight, Luke and his Team travelled to Sinnoh where they met up with a Rag Tag Bunchof Misfits who just so happened to have a strange robot like Pokémon they had never seen before. After getting tangled up in the fight against Missingo, Luke and his Pokémon joined the group permanently.
Since then, Luke has been turned into a Totodile, helped fight and kill Two glitch Pokémon, befriended far too many legendary Pokémon to count, become a PEFE Researcher and defeated Red in public competition, amongst many other things.
- Flat "What": Seems to love this trope.
- Friend to All Living Things: Has managed to get several Pokémon to join him without a fight, most notably Celestia the Volcarona. He's even gone as far to admit that he gets on better with Pokémon then he does with people.
- Heroic BSoD: Has blue-screened several times. Thankfully his Pokémon always manage to reboot him before anything bad can happen.
- Initiation Ceremony: To PEFE. It included a couple of tasks that required interaction with wild Pokémon featuring a certain weird Cubone tribe... he passed with flying colors.
- Involuntary Shapeshifting: Spends the Mystery Dungeon Arc as a Totodile.
- Making a Splash: As a Totodile.
- Mix-and-Match Critters: Technically, his Totodile part is the father of Flare's egg via Ditto. It could have been worse — the first candidate to the breeding was Wulfric, a male.
- Pals with Jesus: Luke seems to have a nack for befriending Legendary Pokémon. So far, he's made friends with Ho-oh, Keldeo and his father, Reshiram (Who he was in a relationship with), and all three of the Oblivia beasts.
- Real Men Wear Pink: Has every episode of My Little Blitzle saved on his Vs. Recorder.
◊Lake (Feraligatr, Male)
- Met: New Bark Town; Johto (Totodile) [Gift from Professor Elm]Ability: Torrent (Boosts Water Type moves when in danger)Ball: Formally Poké, now released
Lake was given to Luke by Professor Elm to be his starter Pokemon for his journey through Johto. The two quickly became such good friends that Lake has never left his side since. As such, he has been with Luke everywhere from Johto and Kanto, to faraway places such as Sinnoh and Unova, and even another world altogether.
Despite his large and fierce appearance, Lake is actually a very gentle Pokémon who can't bear to see others unhappy. He can't help but try to help others, often going as far to give them hugs to make them feel better. This often tends to work.
Even so, Lake is still a Feraligatr, and having been with Luke so long, he's the strongest Pokémon on his team, bar none. Lake enjoys battling quite a lot, his specialization being strong Physical attacks such as Crunch and Waterfall.
- Ascended Extra: Started as just another one of Luke's Pokémon, but now gets so much screentime that he's pretty much a main character. Also see the YMMV page.
- Big Eater: Once ate a slice of pizza that was about half his size (It was intended for a Legendary Pokémon though).
- Gentle Giant: Stands at 7.6', weighs about 195lb, has the strongest jaws in the Pokémon kingdom, yet he's one of the nicest Pokémon you'll ever meet.
- Inter Species Romance: Is in love with Nadia the Salamence, despite not sharing an egg group.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Any sort of meat (naturally).
- Scarf Of Ass Kicking: Was given a nice silk scarf (made of Silk spat by Anom's Beautifly) by Dintel the Sandshrew as a gift. Even though Lake has stated he's not a fan of scarves in the past, he wears it anyway.
Comet (Charizard, Female)
- Met: Route 111; HoennAbility: Solar Power (Increases Special Attack power in sunny weather at the cost of HP every turn.)Ball: Poké
A rather hot-headed and impulisve Charizard who joined the Luke's team after meeting her in Hoenn via teleportation accidentnote . Although she claims to be from Pokémon Island, Comet seems oddly secretive about her past for some reason...
- Challenge Seeker: A variant of it rooted to her origins and how they cloud her judgment over threats in the real, physical world.
Stratus (Dragonite, Male)
Stratus ran into Luke and his team at Jubilife City. Not only were they surprised to see a wild Dragonite in the middle of a city, they were even more shocked when he asked to join their team!
After an easy capture, Stratus explained that he had been looking for a trainer so that he could take part in the Gold Conference in order to try and impress his Gyarados Father, who had exiled Stratus from his home on Pokémon Island after failing to win a battle against him.
Although Stratus was perfectly capable of battling, everyone soon found he had a serious problem: he couldn't fly very well at all. Thankfully, though, Jayna, DS' Flygon, was more than happy to teach Stratus how to fly properly. Which has lead Stratus to develop a bit of a crush on her.
In combat, Stratus takes advantage of his Dragon power to use all sorts of attacks, such as Dragon Claw, Fire Punch and Aqua Tail, amongst others, making him a rather unpredictable opponent.
- Big Eater: AND HOW.
- Our Dragons Are Different: Since his ability to breath underwater didn't go anywhere when he evolved from a Dragonair into a Dragonite, Stratus is just as at home in water as he is in air. He claims to have even dived to the very bottom of the ocean floor at one point, but he hasn't followed up on this just yet.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Fish Pokémon.
Chord (Ariados, Male)
- Met: Route 30; Johto (Spinarak)Ability: Swarm (Boosts Bug Type moves when in danger.)Ball: Nest
- Deadpan Snarker: Amounts to about half his dialog, much to everyone else's annoyance.
- Jerkass: Acts like this most of the time, but...
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He's nice to those he really cares about, which includes Francis and Guardé.
Woolly (Ampharos, Female)
- Met: Route 32; Johto (Mareep)Ability: Static (May Paralyze upon physical contact)Ball: Poké
Woolly was caught as a Mareep rather early on Luke's journey through Johto. Although a bit absent minded, Luke grew to like the Mareep thanks to her cheerful personality, and although she can be a bit of a handful at times, Luke loves her very much.
Now an Ampharos, Woolly has spent the second longest time on the team, just behind Lake. Woolly is always cheerful, and although some find her constant perkiness quite annoying, most can't help but smile whenever Woolly's about. Although Woolly often ends up getting into trouble, which often ends on the rest of the team having to bail her out. However, as of late, she has become much more sensible. To such an extent that she has skillfully taken charge in one or two situations.
Woolly is far from helpless though. She maybe a bit ditzy, but in battle, Woolly is a force to be reckoned with. As well as knowing devastating Special attacks such as Thunderbolt, Signal Beam, and Focus Blast, Woolly can stop foes in their tracks with Thunderwave, or render herself nearly untouchable with a combination of Cotton Guard and Light Screen. Because of this, Woolly is a bit of a jack of all trades, but leans mostly towards specializing in Special Attacks.
- Battle Couple: With Unite.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: Somehow got into the description boxes while in Twist Mountain. This didn't end well for Luke.
- Our Dragons Are Different: Even thought they're not proper dragons, Ampharos have enough dragon like traits to qualify for this. Woolly being able to use Outrage helps back this image up, too.
- The Ditz: Started off as one of these, but has become much more sensible as time has gone on.
Phyco (Kingdra, Male)
- Met: Unknown Location (Horsea)Ability: Sniper (Critical hits hit for more damage.)Ball: Lure
Treeo (Sceptile, Male)
- Met: Teakwood Forest; Oblivia (Treecko)Ability: Overgrow (Boosts Grass Type moves when in danger)Ball: Level
- The Beastmaster: Skillfully managed to tame a Scolipede of all things during a fierce battle, which he spent most of the AU arc using as a mount.
- Cannot Spit It Out: What causes his tension with Copahue, Silent's Fearow, as they are both pinning over the same bird.
- Put on a Bus: Treeo quietly disappeared during the Oblivia arc...
- The Bus Came Back: Only to be brought back during Luke's trip to Kanto by popular demand.
- Romantic Runner-Up: When he finally admitted he loves Harriet, her heart was already won by Copahue's efforts to raise Shahinne (and the Starly's need for a mother figure as well). Treeo decides to let them go build a family.
- Ship Tease: May have feelings for Harriet the Honchkrow ever since she was in a relationship with Bill the Murkrow. Things got better for Treeo... but see Romantic Runner-Up above.
Flare (Blaziken, Female)
- Mix-and-Match Critters: Her egg. Due to accidental mishandling of a Ditto, this egg is one third Torchic, two thirds Luke... and one of those thirds is Totodile!Luke.
- Out of Focus: Was pretty much the least developed of Luke's Pokémon until her writer nailed down her personality.
Dusty (Trapinch, Male)
- Met: Born in Lilycove City; Hoenn (Trapinch) [Gift from Fool]Ability: Hyper Cutter (Prevents Attack from being lowered by other Pokémon.)Ball: Ultra
Crowley (Honchkrow, Male)
- Met: Goldenrod City; Johto (Murkrow)Ability: Insomnia (Prevents sleep from outside sources)Ball: Dusk
- The Mafia: Crowley acts like a Mafia don, even going as far to have a group of Murkrow minions following him around. Although, considering that he is a Honchkrow, it's not at all surprising.
Wulfric (Lucario, Male)
- Battle Couple: With Flare, now that he's with her.
- The Quiet One: Although he has recently taken a preference to talking via Aura.
Ad Min (Porygon-Z)
- Met: Sliph Co.; Saffron City (Porygon) [Purchased]Ability: Download (Analyses foe's weaknesses, boosting attacking stats to compensate.)Ball: Poké
- Herald: Announces to Luke his incoming matches for the Gold Conference, among other things. Tends to also role as a Spear Carrier in some of those scenes.
Guardé (Gallade, Male)
- Met: Route 34; Johto (Ralts)Ability: Justified (Raises Attack upon being attacked with Dark type moves.)Ball: Nest
- Knight In Shining Armour: Sees himself as one of these. But in practice? Well...
Unite (Braviary, Male)
- Berserk Button: Don't insult Woolly in front of him. He'll WILL make you pay.
- Dead Pan Snarker: Was pretty snarky too everyone at first. Nowadays, he's only like this to people he doesn't like.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Is frequently snarky and rude to other people and Pokémon, but he genuinely does care about his team-mates. However, he has become much less of a jerk in recent times.
- Misplaced Wildlife: Rufflet can only be captured on Route 10, which can only be visited very late in the games. Unite, however, was found on Route 2, which is one of the first places you visit and is nowhere near the aforementioned location.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Leaves Luke's team temporarily after deciding that He'll never evolve into a Braviary at the rate Luke is training him. He comes back during the battle with Clay in Anville Town though.
- Trade Mark Favorite Food: Any sort of Chocolate.
Celestia (Volcarona, Female)
- Met: Relic Castle; Unova (Volcarona)Ability: Flame Body (May burn upon physical contact)Ball: Luxury
- Action Mom: Happens to be the mother of both Helios and Anom's Volcarona.
- Lady of War: She may be a Queen (Well she was, anyway), but that won't stop her from kicking your butt in a fight.
- Royals Who Actually Do Something: When the war between Reshiram and Zekrom threatened her kingdom, what did Celestia do? She tried to fight them off herself. Granted, she lost against them, but still.
Lewis (Floatzel, Male)
- Shout-Out: To Lewis Brindley.
Hallow (Mismagius, Female)
- Emotion Eater: "I feed on your FEAR!"
- Evil Laugh: "Eeeheehee!"
- Our Ghosts Are Different: Has hinted that she was alive at some point, but then died and became a Misdreavus. What she was like when she was alive, though, is currently a mystery.
- The Trickster: Has struck up a friendship with Phantom due to a shared interest in tricking others.
Blitz (Zebstrika, Female)
- Cool Horse: Cool Zebra
- Shock and Awe
- Playing with Fire: Like most Zebstrika, she knows Flame Charge.
Phantom (Zoroark, Female)
- Jerkass: Is huge jerk towards pretty much everyone (Apart from Hallow). But...
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: ...She cares deeply about Fool's Zorua, Claudandus.
- The Trickster: Naturally. Has even developed a friendship with Hallow, due to a share interest in playing tricks on others.
- Shapeshifter: Can use her Illusion ability to take on the appearance of any Pokémon she's seen before. Very helpful for playing tricks on people and Pokémon.
- Played by: Onion Shew
A 16-year-old dark-specializing trainer from Castelia City, Unova. Although he is most fond of Dark types, he is also highly fond of Ghost types, his first being a Shedinja who enjoys questionable hobbies and pastimes, and occasionally teaming up with Breeze, Every's Chimecho, to annoy Onion. This is a pastime much of his team enjoys, except for Puzzle, who doesn't really enjoy anything.
In childhood he was given the nickname "Onion." This wasn't based on a mannerism or aspect of his appearance, it was simply to annoy him. However, he came to be fond of the nickname and still uses it.
- Confusion Fu: Main modus operandi. If this fails, he resorts to Let's Get Dangerous!.
- It Amused Me: Stranding Amanita in the middle of an ocean.
- Played by: Penthepoet
An 18 year-old goth with snark to spare. She started her journey in Johto and hasn't turned back since. She arrived in Anistar, but has not met up with anybody yet.[[spoiler: This character is on a bit of a hiatus.
- Ax-Crazy: Most likely.
- Brutal Honesty: Morrigan has this pretty bad.
- The Cynic: Anything you do in front of Morrigan usually results in her being an absolute Cynic.
- Code of Honor: Suprisingly, she does have one.
- Dark Is Not Evil: If you gain her trust, then she will show off this.
- One-Steve Limit: Not to be confused with Morrigan, Joseph's Houndoom.
