AU!Rex was orphanned and adopted a bunch of homeless Rattata that were in the top tier of all Rattata.

Do you know what I am saying?

Aaaanyway, the FE thing sounds cool. Where are the 'mons involved in that now?

@Tagg Hell if I know.

Perhaps I should've rephrased my question to focus on those who hadn't already stated what happened to their characters, since I already know what happened to them.

To team Eskay (Myself included)

I kinda feel wrong about leaving the PMD world during the PMD Arc. If this is simply part of somthing, then I'll play along. If not, I got a plan for Magical Magikarp Mysterious Figure involving PMD. I would bring this up in chat, but Comcast hates chat and says "Nope, services unavailable". Is this ok?

The chat doesn't like 3DSes anyway. But I'm fine with ending up in PMD again.

Also, it's [[strike:Text]]

... what does everyone think happened to their characters following the timeline branch that became PMD-B?

I wasn't involved in the first arc, so I guess I should assume something generic and uninteresting occurred.

So... why am I posting this...?

Dunno...

The zombies are coming, but it's okay, I've planned out what to do in exactly two thousand one hundred and nine semi-plausible situations.

As of tomorrow, I will be considerably less active on some days of the week (Mon-Wed-Fri) due to summer classes (and depending on how demanding homework is, may also cut into activity into days beyond those). Furthermore, on some occasions, I will be minimally active for a few days at a time (the first coming up this weekend due to road trip to the mountains). In order to enable other players to do get stuff done that might necessitate my characters being there or otherwise not lurking 2 feet offscreen, I present to you:

Tracer's Handy Guide for RCing His Characters (And Those In Close Proximity to Them)

Characters in green may require the blessing of / coordination with another player in order to use.

Team Uncharted (PMD-B)

  • Gene: The (original) explorer of the group. Has unspecified and Beyond the Impossible ninja abilities for getting from Point A to Point B (handy for abrupt scene changes that you may need tongue). He's a bit of a snoop and not particularly helpful of an explainer.
  • Vlad: The happy-go-lucky 6-foot tall hugbug of the group. Is more or less a marginally more mature and eloquent Dintel. Won't be killing anything deliberately under most circumstances (to the point where he winds up stealing food from others before hunting). The aforementioned aversion to killing stuff has been subverted before, though unless if you somehow wind up rubbing shoulders with borderline-Complete Monster types nonstop for a few days and are prepared to handle the nasty emotional crash afterwards, that should probably be something to avoid.
  • Shaun: The sweet, quiet Ampharos of Tracer's team... Who will proceed to brutally electrocute you if you attempt serious harm against his trainer or any of his teammates... Repeatedly. Will converse in tail flashes around other members of his line and can serve as a(n admittedly less seasoned) surrogate to Iggy in team leadership if need be.
  • Nadia: The somewhat insensitive, though well-meaning bruiser of Tracer's team. Thoroughly confident in her own abilities and strength and her abilities to overcome all obstacles with them... Except when she can't, which typically elicits a good amount of personal insecurity, by virtue of challenging her presumptions regarding her strength and abilities as a Salamence or otherwise by finding herself engaging "monstrous" behavior that she associates with the fairytale depiction of Salamence that she finds particularly insulting. Tends to have a short temper and is a bit of a loose cannon when upset, which can get especially nasty when under emotional duress (if you happen to point out that she's Not So Different with a certain Hydreigon in this regard, she probably will not be amused). Tends to get annoyed by mons that are fearful of her based off of a cursory meeting and is somewhat leery of hunting (that said, she is not particularly uncomfortable with devouring particularly aggravating creatures that are not teammates or otherwise under a trainer's protection if she happens to be hungry). Opens up to her doll with a patched left wing, Toothless (aka Companion Cube / suspiciously powerful figment of her imagination), about insecurities that she doesn't feel comfortable sharing with others and has a very intimate bond with Lake.
  • Eir: A perky, young (at least in mentality) Duskull that has recently joined the party. Her character is not fully established yet, but she is intended to have a process similar to what one could expect out of an opinionated, if amiable 12-year old girl... If 12-year old girls fed off of fear and sensations relating to death, could phase through walls and possess living entities, and had becoming a psychopomp as their life ambition. Don't expect her to apologize for giving you a good start unless if you get hurt or otherwise wind up doing something that would ruin her appetite for your fear (along with most others' appetites for more conventional food) from it.

Team Uncharted (PMD-A)

  • Toothless: A presently ex-doll Salamence, and Nadia's imaginary friend and vessel for her internal voice of reason made incarnate... For now. Toothless' personality can best be described as that of a generally calmer and less impulsive analogue to Nadia. All bets are off when forced to be in the prolonged company of potion bottles though, as seen in his initial transformation into a flesh and blood entity.
  • Cleo: Not much to this Relicanth here. More or less a gag character built around being Wrong Genre Savvy... Or being RIGHT Genre Savvy for the wrong universe. Is in exceedingly RARE circumstances dead on with her commentaries regarding the situation at hand (usually when the rest of the group is not aware of it). Except in the AU / PMD-B verse, where she seems to perennially be 'half right' about her musings.
  • Riana (ask Tangent for permission to run / expanded debriefing): Courtney's newborn chick, as of present not having only recently started speaking coherently. Currently has a simplistic and naive way of processing the world around her and has developed a bit of a animosity towards Fighting-Types after being harassed shortly after hatching by a Tyrouge. Has a close bond to Nadia and especially Toothless, the latter often serving as her source of explanation of things that she encounters that seem unfamiliar to her.
  • Teala: Tracer's most recent draconic addition to his team (unless if you count Zoltan). A Druddigon ex-guard from Dragonspiral Tower, is occasionally plagued by an often-crippling sense of inadequacy and lack of self-worth that accompanied a dodgy service record and on-and-off verbal ridicule and abuse by other Pokemon around her that is at the moment dormant following a stint at the Goldenrod Nido Colony. Longs deeply to be seen as competent and pulling her own weight among others, which was what drove her in part to seek out a trainer. Is a fan of gaming along with Audrey and Milo, will gladly share a few stories regarding Dragonspiral Tower and its patron deities in her more confident states, and has a presently quiet crush on Maekrite.

Team Earthbound

  • Lardna: Picked up in Unova around a year ago from Juniper's lab as a Tepig. Is well meaning, albeit judgmental as a team member, and a touch impatient. Also trends a tad rough and tumble and won't pass up a chance for battle if she can help it.
  • Zoltan: The team 5-year old of Tracer's team... If 5-year olds could fly, had sharp claws, and a mouth full of sawblade teeth. Curious, playful, naive, and not always aware of the gravity of his actions. Occasionally gives the others a headache via flying off or getting something destroyed. Will get violently ill if he attempts to consume most modern foods and should be kept far, FAR away from any ill mons on account of his less than robust immune system.
  • Andre: The team rock chrysalis who hides his insecurities regarding his raw statistical "imperfectness" and fears of being ignored / abandoned in favor of other, stronger mons behind a belligerent, battle-hungry facade. Tries VERY stubbornly to keep that facade intact and will generally only admit need for help in face of obviously overwhelming odds or if he finds himself way in over his head. The rest of the team has as of the moment not seen his true personality enough to distinguish it as being distinct from the one he projects when interacting most of the time. Is in that life stage where he has a tendency to inadvertently cause small impact craters by propelling himself into walls on accident. His "true" persona is that of a quiet, shy introvert (compare to Wulfric below), though it will likely be a while before he allows for that persona to manifest outside of periods of personal insecurity.
  • Pepper (ask Luke for expanded debriefing): A Meganium that Luke caught as a Chikorita at the Lake of Rage. Has been more or less out of the loop from the group's antics since GC. Is good natured and a competent medic, but quick to judge. Does not take the mistreatment of young creatures well, and can be a bit of a disciplinarian.
  • Bottles: One of the more recent additions to Tracer's team. This Drilbur forced upon Tracer by former superior, Monty. Bottles as a character has a bit of a sarcastic streak, but has a far firmer grasp of sense and tactics than young mons normally do. Is more or less a living Move Tutor, though is absolutely adamant on being paid for his services up front in objects shaped like music notes (a minor obsession of his).
  • Cecil: The youngest member of Tracer's team at the moment. As a Zorua, Cecil presently has a rather childlike and curious demeanor towards the world around him, and is presently experimenting with casting illusions (he can mimic mons' appearances fairly competently at this point, mannerisms are another matter). Has a bit of a mixed relationship with his father, Reynard, at the moment, if not fully grasping the magnitude of what it means. Cecil finds Reynard's like of practical jokes and general mischief embarrassing, but at the same time, sometimes finds himself genuinely enjoying spending time with his father. Also has a bit of a friendship with Merle, who tagged along with Team Earthbound since their crash landing into Hoenn-B
  • Moogle: An Archen explorer of the Empire of the Ancients that was captured by the tribe at Iron Town in PEFE-That-Was, and made to follow Team Earthbound as punishment. Moogle is very much a bipolar character, even if we've only seen one of his two presently planned character facets so far. When not under the effects of Defeatist, Moogle is more or less a slightly older and more eloquent Flapjack, a hyperactive adventurer always yearning to go off into the next unknown. When under the effects of Defeatist, Moogle becomes a nigh-masochistic pain seeker, walking an internal tightrope between self-preservation and getting 'just another hit' (which makes him handy for drawing attacks away from a group). Also occasionally has a habit of involuntarily appending 'kupo' to the end of his sentences, though makes a conscious effort to correct himself about it.
  • Reynard (See Umbra's Guide to RCing for more details / Consult Umbra for permission to use): Cecil's father, and as a Zoroark, exhibits qualities of a trickster archetype with some butt monkey tendencies. Has a rivalry with Zexion, including among other things, for his son's attention (though has lately lightened up on that a bit).
  • Zexion (See Umbra's Guide to RCing for more details / Consult Umbra for permission to use): A Zoroark that was formerly cared for by a trainer with a slightly unhealthy interest in Empire Soul. Is a very no-nonsense character, and a bit of a snarker. Will only rarely pass up the opportunity to put down Reynard for perceived incompetence.
  • Merle (ask Every for permission to run / expanded debriefing): A Murkrow from Celadon who has wound up becoming sucked into the madness of PMD-R via virtue of the J-Team being a weirdness magnet. Merle is a rather opinionated Murkrow and has a tendency to get into situations beyond her ability to handle at times (e.g. threatening to put out a Bastiodon's eye on the middle of a ship full of raiders). Has some rather sticky claws, which is both a source of reliable income and headaches for Team Earthbound, as well as a tendency to go off on her own at times. Has what appears to be a close friendship with Cecil.

Benched at PEFE HQ

  • Iggy: Can best be described as the voice of reason among Tracer's mons (which is helpful, seeing as he's his starter). Always there to provide guidance and suggestions if needed... And generally does a good job at humoring grievances and mediating disputes. He looks at life as only a creature that lugs around a heavy bony shell could, which can lead him to pursue or otherwise recommend courses of action that will come off as a bit reckless sometimes.
  • Thog: The team poet of Tracer's mons. Do not confuse his flowery prose and interests for weakness though. He can still hold his own in battle, if not against many PC mons by virtue of sheer underleveling. Will not hesitate to use physical strength / force to smack around mons who decide to get smart about the idea of a Machamp with a thing for poetry.
  • Sonny: The rude and violent Jerk With a Heart Of Gold... Mostly. He's easily the most powerful mon along with Gene, and can be downright predatory towards others' insecurities. Does not battle for fun, if he beats something, it will in all likelihood need a Pokecenter visit afterwards. He's generally smart enough to back down from an obviously losing fight, but that's sometimes trumpted by his fiercely protective tendencies towards his siblings and Courtney. (Or when push comes to shove, his other teammates). Uses Russian and Mafiya-related terminology quite a bit, and is also his vernacular of choice for less savory terms.
  • Courtney: The closest thing that Tracer presently has to a Token Evil Mon. She's Sonny... If Sonny were a couple notches lower on the power scale and made a conscious effort to go out and ruin someone's day every morning. Thinks highly of her mate, not so much his siblings, and is presently doting on her chick, Riana.
  • Milo: The lippy, immature, self-centered clown of Tracer's mons, and team Floatzel / general purpose mustelid. Will not hesitate to poke fun at something in a manner that he views as being good-natured or otherwise run his mouth off making smart comments. Which leads to him regularly receiving Dope Slaps or the equivalent thereof from his teammates. Can be genuinely supportive to team members at times, though barring personal crises, it is unlikely that Milo will pass the chance up to work a barb or two in.
  • Sonny's Siblings: In general, they're more or less your group of foul-mouthed schoolyard punks, albeit a little more amiable and playful. Look up to their elder, and more powerful brother and occasionally address him as "Nikolai" (though won't pass up an opportunity to give him a hard time about his default name from time to time). More specific quirks:
    • Misha: The loon of the bunch. If someone's making an inane statement in the group, it's him.
    • Sasha: The more opportunistic and shady of the male Murkrow. Has a tendency to speak before he thinks things through.
    • Alonya: The unofficial leader (and most mature) of the group. Administers Dope Slaps and Pecks to the others from time to time.
    • Irina: Sasha's more clever (and devious) female counterpart. Unlike Sasha, she tends to be more prudent about her antics, but won't pass up the chance to take up a reasonable "opportunity" if she sees one.

At Sinnoh Tribe Shipping Grounds

  • Kat: The Marowak on the team, is lugging around a Thick Club. Is a lorekeeper for a Cubone tribe just south of Kanto Route 9. Hot-headed, short-tempered, and often prefers to think with her club. Has a crush on Rising Star of the Sinnoh Tribe and a strong bond with his tribe (the fact that her less hot-headed and more openly curious brother, Yellow Dart is helping to patrol the Sinnoh Tribe's graveyard ATM is probably helpful).
  • Rising Star (ask Tangent for permission to run / expanded debriefing): Kat's Marowak crush, is similarly averse to being has become increasingly more candid about his feeling for Kat. Is of a less aggressive and more inquisitive mold. Occasionally makes a few decisions that only someone without much life experience would.

With Route 226 Lucario Pack

  • Audrey: The empath of Tracer's team and his avenue of direct communication with his mons prior to being armbanded. Is a major video gaming buff and regularly plays along with Milo and Teala whenever they're around. Extremely capable with techniques related to what we'd call "Special Attack" and Aura in general, and proud of it... Which is offset by downright appalling physical attack strength (which was the source of rather nasty insecurites when she was younger that she has for the most part conquered). Gravitating towards or otherwise insinuating some sort inherent tie between physical techniques and Fighting-Types is a major pet peeve of hers, mocking her abilities as a fighter is a fast way to get sniped in the face with an Aura Sphere. Regularly (ab)uses her capabilities with Aura to snoop in on others' thoughts and to act as psychic-invading alarm clock, and is a rather notorious flirt towards other Lucario she happens to run into (though it's for the most part not serious... For now).
  • Wulfric (ask Luke for permission to run / expanded debriefing): A quiet, shy Lucario that was captured by Luke from Unova's Challenger Cave. Was once in a romantic relationship with Woolly, which was dissolved shortly before the Gold Conference. As of present, is in a relationship with Flare, and tends to be more ready to speak when around her (though considering how many of his lines in the absence of Flare's presence boil down to "...", that's not saying much).
  • Flare (ask Luke for permission to run / expanded debriefing): A hotheaded Blaziken that was obtained by Luke from Steven Stone as a Torchic. Flare's personality can more or less be encapsulated as being an animate armored truck. If she wants/needs something, get out of her way. Despite this, Flare is generally amiable (if perpetually fixated on battle), and enjoys an intimate (if generally not publicly flaunted) relationship with Wulfric.
  • Susano (See Umbra's Guide to RCing for more details / Consult Umbra for permission to use): This Otaku Samurott initially joined Umbra's team around the time of Hoenn's J-Team convention this spring. Since then, he has been traded over to Lina's team. Susano has a avid interest in video games, comics, anime and the like, and has named his keratin blades. More specifically, Tohenboku Doom Death and N00b Bane. Was accidentally shardported over to the Route 226 pack while attempting to tag along with Toothless and company to PMD-A.
  • Yomi (See Umbra's Guide to RCing for more details / Consult Umbra for permission to use): The Mandibuzz Team Mom of Lina's mons. Is an avid bookworm, and a bit of an intellectual, though shares common ground with Susano regarding comics and manga. Enjoys a strong friendship with the Samurott and was transported to the Route 226 pack much in the same manner as Susano was.

In New Bark Town

  • Francis: Presently at Luke's house along with Chord and Guarde. A rather hard-bitten Delta Ledian with severe trust issues towards most other people and Pokemon, seeing them as only interested in her for their own means. Has internal conflict between a facet of her that is dead set on avoiding building relationships with others to avoid further emotional betrayals and her repressed desire to feel wanted by others. Presently has a mutual relationship with Chord that she is somewhat candid about.
  • Chord (ask Luke for permission to run / expanded debriefing): An Ariados that Luke caught as a Spinarak in the timeskip after the AU in Johto. A major music buff that lugs around an acoustic guitar with snarking tendencies and a bit of a mean streak (and is not the least bit squeamish about gruesomely dispatching and consuming his meals, or just screwing with a mon's mind if he's not particularly hungry). Is by far the more candid half of his relationship with Francis, and despite coming off as verbally and physically abusive to Guarde at times, genuinely (though quietly) cares and respects the Gallade.
  • Guarde (ask Luke for permission to run / expanded debriefing): If Guarde had to be summed up in a single phrase, it would be as the "Idiot Hero" of Luke's mons. Always does the right/helpful thing... Or at least what he thinks is the right/helpful thing, which winds up making things worse about as often as it makes them better. Has a tendency to oversimplify the sides of an issue of a conflict into being "right" or "wrong". Generally very self-confident, though in the right circumstances (e.g. nearly getting someone killed) and with a sufficiently vehement chew-out, will have his self-confidence all but evaporate. Had a bit of a fairytale knight motif going up until Hoenn, but may have dropped that post-mindscapes. Also, is an infamously bad teleporter.

So if you ever need them, here they are. Come and get them. (Though heads-ups for purposes of logistics are still preferred.) Note that this list is NOT comprehensive, but rather lists who I think would be most pertinent for RCing activity at the moment. As such, this list may see additions and/or other revisions in the future.
