Name:Valarie, Through prefers to be called Vicki

Species: Joltik

Gender: Female

Ability: Compound Eyes

Moveset:

• Thunder Wave
• Bug Bite
• Electroweb
• String Shot

History:
Vicki as she likes to be called has known Prometheus for the longest time, as both of them lived in the northern region of the grass continent both in relative proximity to each other. In a small band of insects who's chieftain was a Volcarona (Prometheus's Mother) and her Husband a rather vain Beautifly. Vicki's Mom and Dad were proud Galvantula and she was also happy to live with her 15 siblings, The chieftains son even came to visit. Life was great...

Then Prometheus came home alone after venturing out with his mother. The party was in uproar. The spider was ushered away from even talking to her friend. Simply put, the group had lost its sunshine, the warm embrace of the chieftains heat on the cold winter days. They had every right to be annoyed but... Did they really have to exile a half blind and injured Prometheus from the group? That just wasn't fair to leave the Larvesta alone in such a crippled state. So she hitched a ride with him. For a week of travel for which she was a stowaway for the first two days until Prometheus went for a small dip in the water. Boy was that a surprise.

He didn't send her away though so she has stayed with him, an angel on his shoulder and a voice of reason to help him get through even if injured. She is his eyes and he protects them both from the vastness of the world...

Personality:
Valerie, preferring to be called Vicki is a calm individual, levelheaded individual whom never seems to be fazed at anything the large world seems to throw at her. She just enjoys taking life one step at a time, staying optimistic to the world around her. Towards other people she can be seen almost as motherly in the way she cares about them. Though that doesn’t mean she's the perfect individual at talking, she does not care for the concept of personal space. If you have fur capable of producing static electricity, she will crawl all over you to recharge her personal battery’s. Though her personal favourite source of electricity is Prometheus due to his warm fluffy fur and the fact that she sleeps in it as a shelter due to the massive size difference between the two companions.

If you anger her she will not hesitate to bite in and start electrocuting you but luckily she has a long fuse, so it takes a lot to garner such a reaction out of her.

In the event the duo ever get into a fight, her remarkable eyesight (a result of her ability Compound Eyes) allows her to spot weak points in the enemy's style for them to exploit, She is certainly not the play maker, serving as Prometheus’s support and in some cases the angel on his nonexistent shoulder.

Important Items: N/A

Notes: Refuses to leave Prometheus's side, in order to avoid him getting into any trouble.

Species: Larvesta

Gender:Male

Ability:Flame Body

Moveset:

• Morning Sun
• String Shot
• Take Down
• Flame Charge

History:
The son of a groups large(comparative to her species) chieftain, and her husband a vain beautifly, Prometheus wasn't always so hostile, he was once very open with people treating everyone as a friend and generally hanging around with the younger generation of the band. The certain thing that one could see was that he was happy...

But that all changed when he and his mother went up the mountain together, It was a training session. Nothing would of gone wrong. He was just rowdy. He didn't know it would cause a rock slide. He didn't know. He didn't know anything. He was immature but it didn't matter. That was the day the sun fell. He fell with it. Down into the bowels of the earth.

He went home blinded much worse then he is now and injured greatly looking to his father for guidance but he was shunned. He had done nothing. He was given only one mercy, he was allowed to recover in the safety of the group but he wasn't allowed to stay. He was told to leave as soon as he could walk properly and so he did. He left for himself, deciding that he may as well travel to the nearby village, and look for respite there.

But luckily he didn't have to travel there by himself... Seems an old friend had hitched a ride. Maybe life wasn't so cruel after all.

Personality:

Prometheus can be described by the concept of being hotheaded, hes quick to judge people, even quicker to get into fights with them. He is certainly a hostile little insect to those that haven't earned his trust but he cares deeply about those that have, willing to sacrifice body and soul in order to secure that they will be the most well off in any situation.

Prometheus is far sighted due to a tragedy in his earlier life leading to damage to his eyes, this means that he is unable to make out details when an item or object is closer then 2 meters, he sees them as misshapen blobs of colour. This weakness is slightly accounted for by his little spider friend. Meaning he puts great trust in her vision to compensate for his own, and if one has his trust, well you already know what lengths he would go to.

Important Items Friends: vicki, the Joltik

Notes: Officially titled best static generator in the whole world by his companion.

Name:
Beryl

Species:
Meowstic

Gender:
Female

Ability:
Competitive: Sp. Attack up twice for every stat lowered.

Moveset:

• Extrasensory
• Shadowball
• Psyshock
• Barrier

History:
Beryl's history isn't all that exciting as some others might be. She was raised on the Mist Continent, in a pleasant little village not far from Noe Town. Truthfully speaking, she never really wanted to become an explorer, part of a rescue team, or whatever else one wanted to call it. In fact, she wanted to do something entirely different - help run her parents cafe and take over eventually. How did she become part of a guild? Well, it involved a friendly little Pawniard and her being lost in a creepy forest.

The Pawniard - Tin, she said her name was - not only wasn't put off by her standoffish seeming tendencies, in fact the spiky pokemon was surprisingly friendly and oddly...cuddly. The Pawniard helped her find her way out of the forest after a small misadventure involving the two of them getting attacked by a rather irate Treavanant. Tin stuck around for awhile after that, though she didn't speak much about herself or where she came from, and the two became quick friends.

After some time, Pawniard made the offer to Beryl to form a team, and with some hesitation she accepted. So after a bit more misadventures they finally found themselves in Valiant Village where they joined the Guild where they have been working for some time. Beryl even evolved! She still hasn't really managed to shake off her social anxiety, though unfortunately.

Personality:
At first, Beryl would come off as a bit shy, and perhaps a bit standoffish. Its true - The Meowstic isn't the most friendliest of pokemon out there. She regards most others with cold passivity and doesn't particularly like speaking much, often wearing a bored or otherwise deadpan expression. Combined with the rather massive amount of confidence she seems to carry herself with, it means she doesn't exactly have many friends. She keeps her sentences and words short and to the point, often coming off as taciturn and cold.

Unfortunately this is a but of a misunderstanding on her part. Truthfully, Beryl is absolutely terrible at conversing with other pokemon which is why she keeps her words and sentences short and to the point. She is terrified of blundering something and while outwardly she might be calm and composed, but inside her heart is usually beating like a jackhammer to the point of being unable to even emote properly out of fear. At times, she often can be very self-conscious about her abilities and other pursuits as well.

That said, Beryl is a very reliable partner in a battle, and will always have her partners back no matter the cost and is surprisingly intelligent about a number of subjects regarding history and other such scholarly pursuits.

Important Items:
A small scarf Tin gave her when they met. She wears it wrapped around her tail, like a bow.

Notes:
Team name, according to Tin varies from 'Team peppy' 'Team Steel & Brains' and various others that Tin comes up with on the spot. However, officially their name is 'Team Moxie'

Name:
Tin
Species:
Pawniard

Gender:
Female

Ability:
Defiant: Attack is raised by two stages if a stat is lowered.

Moveset:

• Metal Claw
• Assurance
• Scary Face
• Slash

History:
Unlike Beryl, Tin's history is a tiny bit more in depth, and a bit more tragic. This isn't the Pawniard's first team, so to speak. She had a small team of friends when she was still a kid she hung out with on the Sand Continent. As kids, they often went around pretending to be heroes and otherwise doing what a bunch of kids with too much time on their hands doing. Often getting into fights, staying out past their bed times and go sticking their noses in places they shouldn't.

Even the old ruins they were told never to go into. Needless to say, things went a bit wrong. Things went well at first - there weren't many strong pokemon living in the mystery dungeon, and with a little effort they could handle them well enough. They were pretty confident in their abilities and didn't see much to overly concern themselves with. About halfway in though, an earthquake shook the entire dungeon as a massive, iron pokemon attacked them - the biggest Steelix Tin had ever seen. During the ensuing escape to get away from the arguably larger pokemon, Tin and her friends got separated, and she hasn't seen them sense.

With a little luck she managed to get out, but the others weren't. She bolted back to the village and told everyone what happened. A few search parties were sent, even with the help of experienced guild members but there was no luck to be had in trying to find them. They simply had, well, gone and most feared the worst, and Tin couldn't help but to feel partly responsible for it. It had been her idea to go in there after all just for curiosities sake.

So one day she left, decided to get stronger so she could at least find that Steelix one day and beat it to a bloody pulp. For a time, the Pawniard traveled until she came across a lost Espurr who didn't entirely seem to know her way out of a forest. They've been adventuring since, but are far from the most experienced team out there.

Personality:
If there would be one thing one would notice about Tin upon first meeting her, is the sheer amount of energy the Pawniard seems to radiate and have. The rambunctious little pokemon seems to have an almost endless supply of it and never seems to get tired. She can often be found running back and forth between various places in the city, and never seems to sit still for more than a few moments. She absolutely hates waiting on things to happen and can often get very impatient if she has to sit her butt down for more then a few seconds at a time. Most often her energy is spent both training and making friendly with other pokemon she runs across. Indeed, Tin would attempt to even befriend an angry Gyarados if she could. Unfortunately, because of her rather spiky nature her affections are not returned all that often.

Tin is very reliable in battle, though at times tends to get in over her head because of her impatience and maybe seems to enjoy it a bit too much at times. Still, she has a strong sense of justice and absolutely would do anything to help her teammates.

Under no circumstances however, do you want to see her angry.

Name : Tinuviel

Species : Noibat

Gender : Male

Ability : Infiltrator: The protections and stat boosts caused by the moves Substitute, Reflect, Light Screen, and Safeguard by the opponent are ignored.
Moveset:

• Bite
• Air Cutter
• Agility
• Tackle

History : Tinuviel’s parents were both part of a respected Rescue Team. He was born and raised in Baram Town, but they did missions throughout the region. Once he came of age, his parents often took him with them on missions and excursions. He grew up exploring and performing rescue missions throughout the Air Continent. However, he has minimal experience working alone, and always seems more comfortable with others who can watch each other’s backs.

Although his first missions alone went without issue, specifically because his parents selected simple ones for him, he never could shake the unease he felt while carrying out the rescues. He was frequently looking over his shoulder and his movements were severely hampered from avoiding hostile Pokemon. It only took a few such missions for Tinuviel to realise he was sorely lacking in some necessary skills.

The Rescue Team Association being what it was, a loose collective of teams reporting to a “Hands-Off” governing body, there was little opportunity on the Air Continent for structured training. Even the old Makuhita Dojo could only offer so much. He spoke to many travelling Adventurers and Explorers as they passed through the area. First, he asked them about the famed Wigglytuff Guild, said to have trained the Heroes of Time, but he was disappointed to find out that the guild rarely took on single recruits who didn’t have someone to form a team with.

He eventually heard of a guild called Valliant Village, run by an ancient Lucario named Spirit who’d supposedly been present for the birth of the world. The travellers told him that Spirit had unknown thousands of Rescue and Exploration mission behind him, had restored peace to numerous lawless regions, and had shattered a meteor by virtue of his stalwart punches. While Tinuviel didn’t fully believe the stories, he found it interesting and decided to seek out the guild for himself. He said his farewells to his parents and to the townspeople he’d come to rely on and set out for the Valiant Village Guild.

Personality : He has a cautious nature and always tries to take into account dangers ad risks before making any major moves. Once he comes to a decision, he follows through to the fullest of his abilities.

Tinuviel takes his training at the guild seriously and hopes that it will aid his independence. He doesn’t want to have to be reliant on others during missions. There will always be days when there is no one else and the responsibility will fall solely on his shoulders, and he wants to be prepared for that eventuality.

Important Items : N/A
Notes : His parents are Myra and Solaris, a Noivern and a Talonflame who founded the Rescue Team: Vibrant Wings.

"There’s always interesting things to see and find!"


Name: Mermes

Species: Buizel

Gender: Female

Ability: Swift Swim

Moveset:

• Quick Attack
• Water Gun
• Pursuit
• Swift

History: Mermes was raised by a colony of Magikarp on the Water Continent ever since she was young. The Shiny Magikarp that adopted her found her on the shoreline of the lake with no knowledge how she got there, and the Buizel was too young at the time to remember.
Regardless, Mermes imprinted on the Magikarp and while it took a while, the colony eventually considered her one of their own. For the past few years, the Buizel would go from beyond the pond for a while to find all kinds of items and trinkets. Though she was always careful, her mother taught her how Flying-type Pokemon love to snatch up Magikarp since they're easy prey to them. As a result, when the Buizel had to go to places with a lot of Pokemon outside of the lake, the Buizel learned to make herself seem as unassuming as possible.
At one point, Mermes heard of a guild on the Grass Continent known as the Valiant Guild. The Buizel always heard that the teams that work there have some interesting items that she’s curious about trading for, though she's nervous about doing so. Despite her apprehensiveness, with her now fully-evolved mother’s permission, Mermes has come all the way to the Grass Continent, but she had no idea what was in store for her there...

Personality: Mermes is a shy Buizel that tries not to pop out too much, mostly learned behavior that was done to keep one from being snatched up from prey. She’s not the best at social interaction, often stumbling on her own words and forgetting what she was going to say for a moment mid-sentence, and has some peculiar mannerisms such as jumping everywhere despite knowing how to walk. Mermes has an explorative personality as she loves finding items, and is known to be a bit of a hoarder. She’ll be willing to trade items with you. However, expect it to be an extremely awkward exchange, as Mermes pictures it to go perfectly well in her head, but it usually results in either the exchange to go in near silence or for her to run away with her tail between her legs if she's doing the trade with a predatory Pokemon, most notably if it's with a Flying-type Pokemon. She won’t sell her items for Poke and she looks for trades she considers equal, like a Berry for another Berry.

Important Items: Has a big bag which she carries items in, and has a “Scale of Rage”, which is just an ordinary blue quartz in a shape that resembles a Gyarados scale.

Notes: Kind of has a thing going on where she trades with other player characters and other NPCs. She’s not going to have OP items right off the bat, goodness no, but she’s going to have some useful items on her some may consider useful, like Berries and Orbs.

Name: Penchant

Species: Minccino

Gender: Male

Ability: Skill Link

Moveset:

• Tickle
• Swift
• Encore
• Tail Slap

History: Penchant – or who most Pokémon prefer to call him, PC or Pen – was barely old enough to know about the Second Great War. Both of his parents were part of another guild, and early on PC idolized his Cinccino father, Mince. Mince was an extremely experienced explorer and guild member, even achieving the task of forming his own team. PC had heard plenty of tales of great feats.

PC's regret, however, was that he didn't never did hear enough from Mince. Almost a decade ago, Mince was sent on a mission off in the Mist Continent, along with his team. The last he had heard of Mince was that he had sent a letter from Post Town, but after a few days his team returned from the dungeon with him nowhere to be found.

PC attempted to emerge himself from the shadows of his father's achievements. After Mince's mysterious disappearance, PC and his Lilligant mother Angio moved to Capim Town in the Grass Continent. While PC liked his mother, she was permissive, and he was allowed to run wild and get into his own fair share of trouble. He was also known for avoiding consequences...at least in the short term before he inevitably got caught.

Finally, it was the time where PC couldn't simply stay in the small town of Capim, which was feeling more and more constrained the older he was. Somewhat like his father, PC had the ambition to become something more. Angio, as much as she was permissive and restrained, was reasonable, and while PC at the time had no long term plan in mind, he was given enough to go to another place called Valiant Village. From then on out, PC was an explorer.

He had traveled for some time before he finally arrived near the village, and had overheard that there was a guild there. He was interested in joining, and while PC had admired his father for his achievements, he wasn't quite sure if he should be traveling down the same path his father did or if he should tread down a different path.

Personality: PC isn't quite certain about who he wants to be – an adventurer and explorer like his father or something else, but regardless of his goals, he is ambitious and unrelenting. Under his rules, there's no such thing as giving up, even at the expense of his health. However, his need to achieve also clouds his reasoning, but thankfully not his moral standards; PC often commits to on-the-spot decisions to help others and attain victories, even if it's not the most practical or rational solution. He gets fierce if anyone questions his abilities and would gladly show his skills to prove someone wrong.

He is also curious – no action ever goes unexplained under PC's eye, and if anything happens he would make sure that he would get down to the bottom of it. Rarely does some vague rumor satisfy his questions. Sometimes, it gets him to strange situations which boils his blood with excitement. Occasionally, PC turns out to be mature and philosophical, being slightly above average age of the typical guild member, though it is brief and more likely than not his attempt to act cool.

The young Minccino has some quirks of his own. PC is almost obsessed with the idea of being a hero like his father that he would memorize one-liners to use if the moment arrives; in fact, he writes it down in his notebook (also notable is that he is a fast scribbler). PC is also conscious of his appearance, and would hand-comb his hair or tail whenever he is idle. Scrapes or a bit of dirt on his fur irritates him to no end. He dislikes staying near slobs too long, especially Poison-type Pokemon. Whenever he is fearful, his tail curls towards his face.

In combat, PC relies on his speed to take down his foes. Being a good runner and climber, he takes advantage of his surroundings to dodge incoming attacks before going in for a barrage. His fighting style is aggressive and quick, as he usually can't handle dragged out fights, as it wears him down too much.

Important Items: A black, small notebook that can fit in his bag. He writes down anything that is of interest.

Notes:

Name: Spirit

Species: Lucario

Gender: Male

Ability: Inner Focus

Moveset:

• Aura Sphere
• Bone Rush
• Close Combat
• Dragon Pulse

History: No one is sure when Spirit came into existence. No one ever asked. He never talks much about his time as a Riolu. When he evolved into Lucario, he began travelling the world eventually forming a team with fellow explorers he met on his travels, an Excadrill named Razor and a Gogoat named Ox. They gained a well deserved reputation among the Exploration and Rescue Team Community, being one of the greatest teams of its time.

The team would forge friendships with many Pokemon and Teams, some of which are regarded as legends in their own right. Teams such as A.C.T. were among their allies. However, none could compare to the relationship they shared with the Legendary Team known as the Swords of Justice. The two teams fought side by side through the good times and the bad times. Their team was one of the few that was trusted with the ancient secret the Legendary Pokemon carried.

As they traveled and parted ways with friends and allies, the world would slowly seem to collapse around them. Natural catastrophes were on the rise, and Mystery Dungeons were popping up everywhere. He would watch as a meteor threatened to destroy the world, and would be stopped by one brave team who battled Rayquaza and convinced him to destroy the meteor.

Then he would be left helpless as Temporal Tower began to collapse, causing the very paralysis of time itself. Once again, a little brave team fought their way to the Deity Dialga and managed to defeat him and restore the world. But that would not be the end there. When Kyurem set out to destroy the world with the Bittercold, Spirit knew that he would not be the one to save the day. Once more, a brave team would destroy the Bittercold.

Months afterward, Spirit would learn the truth behind these victories. The reason that these teams succeeded was the fact that a Human was called to their world to help them. However, Spirit knew that this would not always happen.

After the Swords of Justice split apart, Spirit was left with guardianship of the Team Leader Keldeo's twin offspring. However, he found that it was quite difficult to control the two as they aged, becoming more and more independent like their father. One day, to little surprise to him, they had left without a word.

And then it began. Legendary Pokemon Team Leaders began vanishing without a trace. An ancient prophecy was unfolding, and no Human could save them now. The Fallen Legendary was returning. Concerned with the Twins safety, he contacted his old team to track them down, learning they had begun forming a team of various unaffiliated Legendary Pokemon. He knew now it was only a matter of time before HE returned...

And return he did. Mewtwo, a Legendary Pokemon who defied the powerful Legendary Council and waged war across the world, returned to once again attempt to claim what he believed was his. Spirit began to train the fledgling Legendary Team, until his Dojo was attacked and he was captured.

After being saved by Lone the Absol, who had betrayed Mewtwo secretly like his ancestor, he tended to his wounds. As soon as he could he joined the fight against Mewtwo's forces, and eventually the group that had become known as the Freedom Force drove his armies to a standstill.

In a last ditch effort to strike a critical blow to their forces, the Freedom Force, Legendary Council, and a team of Legendary Pokemon that included the one who had defeated Mewtwo before, Mew, attacked Mewtwo's Base of Operations, and in a heated Final Battle, defeated, but not destroyed, Mewtwo, although he escaped with the aid of his most loyal followers. Finally, Spirit caught his breath. It was over, for now...

In the Days following, Spirit found his soul mate, another Lucario named Luna. Together with his former teammates, and with the Swords of Justice, founded Valiant Village on the Grass Continent. There he and his small band created a Guild. Also, after witnissing the Power of Mega Evolution at work, he went on a quest to discover his own Mega Stone, from which he returned triumphant.

After a few years, Spirit and Luna would come to raise a family, while serving as the two Guildmasters of the Valiant Village Guild. They would train, preparing for the day in which Mewtwo would return. Until that day...

Personality: Spirit is a serious, no nonsense kind of Pokemon. This personality has come from the many years as he watched their world near the brink of destruction. This doesn't leave him on edge, however, in fact it's quite the opposite. He usually remains rather calm and tranquil, even in the most dire of times. For if he can't keep himself in check, how can he expect those who follow him to?

But just because he's super serious, don't think he doesn't have a lighter side. The longest standing friends of the Lucario know that he has his moments, and that he's a deep and caring Pokemon at heart. Though it's rare, he has cracked a joke on occasion, though if you blink you might miss it.

Important Items:

• Lucarionite - A sacred stone to Lucarios. This grants them the power of Mega Evolution. Spirit has his stone in a wrist bracer. He only uses it if the situation is at its most dire.
• Old Team Badge - An old and worn Team Badge, so old that those today don't even recognize the design. It is one of three, the other two belonging to Razor and Ox.

Notes:

• Spirit is one of the most well known veterans of The Second Great War, and was one of the key members of The Freedom Force.
• Spirit is the one of the Guild Masters of the Valiant Village Guild alongside his partner, Luna.

Name: Luna

Species: Lucario

Gender: Female

Ability: Inner Focus

Moveset:

• Aura Sphere
• Quick Guard
• Heal Pulse
• Extreme Speed

History: Luna was born on the Grass Continent sometime before the First Great Cataclysm, where a Meteor nearly destroyed their world. She was only a young Riolu then, and doesn't remember much of the event herself, but remembers the importance of it. As time passed on, she vanished into the wilds of the Grass Continent, seeking to distance herself from the strife and disaster of the modern world.

She lived alone, high in the mountains of the Northern Grass Continent. It was a quiet existence, with her enhancing her power of Aura through meditation and training. While unaware of the events that transpired with the Second and Third Great Cataclysms, she sensed the disturbances they made.

When the Second Great War broke out, she was determined to stay out of the conflict. She wanted no part in such a deadly and unnecessary war. However, it seemed destined for her to one day become a part of it. One night she came face to face with the Legendary Pokemon Kyurem, who had been badly injured from a recent battle. While she wanted no part of the war, she could not turn her back on an injured Pokemon, and aided the Ice Dragon.

Thankful for her assistance, Kyurem asked if there was anything he could do for her. She replied that she only wanted to be left out of their conflict. The two began to talk about their views on the war, with both sides seeing the points made by both parties. When it came time for Kyurem to finally depart, Luna would see him off, letting him know he was always welcome there.

Years later, she would finally learn that the war had ended. At last peace could finally be restored. One day a group of Pokemon, veterans of the war, established a village near the mountains she resided in. Curious, she went to investigate. This was the day she would meet Spirit, another Lucario. She felt an emotion she had never felt before, and before she knew it, they were mates.

Her views about the world began to change as she talked with the group of survivors, and saw more and more begin to inhabit the village and cause it to grow. Because of this, she, together with Spirit and his friends, formed the Valiant Village Guild. They would work to build their community and protect it, along with anyone who needed their help.

Many years later, the two would come to raise a family with two children, whom they would name Rico and Lulu. Now as one of the Guild Masters of the Guild alongside Spirit, they work to protect their community and prepare the next generation to do the same.

Personality: Early in life, she was a distant, cold individual, who wanted nothing to do with the modern world. She distanced herself from civilization, and became powerful in Aura. She never bothered herself to worry about the affairs of the world, she knew that they would eventually be solved. Although she wasn't concerned with only herself. If someone was hurt or needed help, she would help. She couldn't turn her back on a life, no matter how hard she tried.

After meeting Spirit and his group, her views drastically changed, as did her personality. She became a caring, compassionate, thoughtful person who worked to bring out the best in others. She likes to focus on the teamwork aspect of the Guild, and acts in a more supportive roll compared to her partner Spirit.

Notes:

• Luna is one of the Guild Masters of the Valiant Village Guild, alongside her Partner Spirit.
• She remains good friends with Kyurem, having bonded during his time there recovering during the Second Great War.

Name: Razor

Species: Excadrill

Gender: Male

Ability: Mold Breaker

Moveset:

• Drill Run
• Horn Drill
• Focus Blast
• Earthquake

History: Razor grew up as a Drilbur who grew up in the deserts of the Sand Continent. Even as a child he had a knack for exploration, finding it easy to burrow under the sands of the desert and discover old artifacts and ruins. When he came of age, he began travelling the world as an Independent Explorer.

Over the course of his travels he evolved into Excadrill. He started making his name in the exploration community, becoming good friends with a Gogoat named Ox. Then one day, in Treasure Town, the two would meet a newcomer, a Lucario named Spirit, who had, overnight, brought forward pieces of ancient relics that hadn't been seen in centuries.

The three became good friends, and began travelling the world, discovering and exploring ruins that had been lost since The Great War. Soon however, the discoveries came fewer and fewer, and the thrill of the adventure began to die down. Then Mystery Dungeons began to appear, and natural disasters put many Pokemon in danger. In response, Rescue Teams began to form. After a short discussion, the three decided to become one of these teams, and Team Trinity was officially formed.

However, as much as they were helping people, it never seemed like the disasters would stop. Then word spread about a Meteor that would collide with the planet, destroying all life. Against all odds, a brave team managed to reach Rayquaza, who would destroy the meteor. For a time, there would be peace. But it would not last.

Two more Cataclysms would occur. In this time Trinity would meet the Legendary Swords of Justice, and become good friends with the team. Spirit, in particular, became so close with the team that when their leader vanished and their team fell apart, he was given guardianship of the leader's twin offspring, which caused him to leave the team.

Over time Razor and Ox went their separate ways as well, only to be brought together again by Spirit's request, as he feared for the safety of the twins he cared for after they went off on a journey, at the same time that Legendary Pokemon began disappearing.

Razor and Ox tracked them to Treasure Town, where they found that they had formed a Team with various other Legendary Pokemon. Reporting this to Spirit, he told them to watch over them and give them guidance.

And then a dark day came, as a Mewtwo that had been destroyed in the Great War returned to seek revenge on the world, and claim what he believed to be his. While Spirit trained the Team of Legends, Razor and Ox began spreading the word around the Grass Continent. Then, with the fall of Spirit's Dojo, began The Second Great War.

For years Razor would fight beside his former team and various friends and teams from across the world against Mewtwo and his army. Finally, he was part of a daring final assault on Mewtwo's Fortress, where Mew defeated his brother again. The Second Great War would finally end, but Mewtwo would escape.

Following the end of the war, Razor would travel with Spirit and Ox as they set out to build a Village to signify the end of the war, which would become known as Valiant Village. After Spirit met another Lucario named Luna, and the two became mates, they all helped form the Valiant Village Guild. For years they would help train the next generation in preparation for the day he would return.

Personality: While serious at times, Razor is often a relaxed individual. Before the war, he was content and happy exploring new places and helping Pokemon. He'd always have a smile on his face and be able to light up a room just by walking into it. However... war changes people...

While he still has his joyous personality, you see it much less often than you used to. His position in the Guild contributes to that, but the things he experienced in the war left their marks. He learned first hand that war is not what it's cracked up to be. It's a harsh reality that you have to deal with, and if you're not serious, if your mind is not set on the task at hand, you could lose your life. He learned these things the hard way...

Name: Ox

History: Growing up on the Mist Continent, Ox was always a Pokemon of few words. As a Skiddo, many could blame it on shyness. At a young age, that was partly true. However, for the most part, he just never had anything to say. He had the notion that if it wasn't important to say, why say it?

As he grew older, he began to explore more and more, eventually leading him into the world of Exploration. Eventually he came of age to set out on his own, and began travelling the world in search of lost wonders. It wouldn't be long before the grass type evolved into Gogoat.

After this, there was no limit to where his travels would take him, as he began exploring the entire known world, eventually ending up on the Grass Continent, where he met an Excadrill name Razor, and the two hit it off immediately. Ox didn't think he could even talk that much at once.

Then one day, their lives changed forever when they met an overnight sensation, Spirit the Lucario. He had discovered ancient artifacts that dated back to the time of the Great War. As the group talked, they found they had an amazing synergy between them, and began travelling the world together.

Together the group would explore the world and uncover ancient secrets that had been hidden for centuries. However, as they found more and more, there came to be less and less to discover. They began looking for new purpose, and that's when the Mystery Dungeon Crisis began. Strange places that defied the laws of physics began popping up everywhere, putting many Pokemon in danger. In response, Pokemon began forming groups, that would eventually become known as Rescue Teams.

Deciding this was the best course of action, the group joined the many who had decided the same, and formed Team Trinity. Over their run they became close friends with many Pokemon Teams, including the Legendary Swords of Justice, who's relationship between the two started quite rocky but was forged into an unbreakable bond.

Word was now spreading about a giant meteor that threatened to destroy the planet. However, a brave Rescue Team convinced Rayquaza of the truth, and the world was saved. As more cataclysmic events unfolded, Spirit would leave the team to take care of the offspring of the Swords of Justice Leader, who had left and disappeared, leaving his team in disarray, eventually leading to their eventual deformation.

Although he also went his separate way with Razor, the two stayed in contact. Then one day, Spirit contacted them both. He was growing increasingly worried about the state of those under his charge, who had left on their own accord. He tasked them with finding them, and they quickly discovered their wherabouts. They had begun forming a team of Legendary, Mythical, and Special Pokemon.

Ox thought this news would please Spirit, but it only seemed to make him worry more. By the time they realized what was transpiring, it was too late. The Mewtwo who had started the Great War had been revived by his followers, seeking revenge on those who had defeated him ages ago.

Not long after, Spirit was captured by Mewtwo, marking the beginning of the Second Great War. For years Ox would take up the fight alongside his friends and teammates, eventually driving Mewtwo's Army to a standstill. Then, in one last bold attack, they engaged him at his command, where Mew managed to defeat him again, but left him alive. Mewtwo escaped, but his Army was in shambles. The war was over.

Afterwards, Ox went with Spirit and his comrades and formed Valiant Village as a sign that the worst was truly over. Over time he became the Rescue Coordinator for the Valiant Village Guild that had formed, and became tasked with the safe delivery of important messages too vulnerable to Telepathic Transmission.

Personality: If one were to say Ox was the strong silent type, they'd be exactly right. He doesn't talk unless he feels there's something he absolutely must say, but that doesn't mean he doesn't always get his point across. He takes his roles very seriously, and is one of the most loyal Pokemon you'll ever meet.

His experiences in the war didn't change his perception of the world much. In fact he believes that it probably won't be long until another such event might happen. While he doesn't have the ability of Future Sight or Sixth Sense, many Psychic Types, such as Zen, would say otherwise. He almost always seems to know when something is about to happen, normally something bad.

Important Items:

• Old Team Badge - An old and worn Team Badge, so old that those today don't even recognize the design. It is one of three, the other two belonging to Spirit and Razor.

Notes: Ox is the Rescue Coordinator for the Valiant Village Guild. He is also the first person to ask if you need a message delivered quickly and discreetly.

Name:Shade

Species: Gengar

Gender: Male

Ability: Cursed Body

Moveset:

• Shadow Ball
• Dark Pulse
• Shadow Punch
• Sludge Bomb

History: shade has always been a weird sort of fellow, showing up to Valiant Village as a Haunter he never really liked to answer questions about where he's from. He might answer some questions, like the fact that he's old enough to have lived through the Second War or that he had experience battling. But the more concrete questions like "Where are you from?" he would either deflect with a joke, give a vague noncommittal answer along the lines of some graveyard or another, or flat out ignore the question and talk about whatever was on his mind at the time. At this point a betting pool has been created regarding just where Shade is from. What is known is that the moment he got into town he went out looking for the Adventurer's Guild and signed up without a doubt in his mind. He was an above average adventurer for sure, rising through the ranks faster than most, never sticking with one team.

He eventually did form a team with an Deino and a Houndour, Drei and Lucius. They were the best of friends, they lived together, ate together, pranked random villagers together, but most importantly they would adventure together. They were the number one rookie team, tackling all sorts of missions and generally saving everyone they could. this went on for years, over time they reached their fully evolved forms and were a true force to be reckoned with within the Guild. Until one day they weren't. He doesn't like to talk about the mission, but one day he came back from a mission alone and with a strange necklace on. When someone asked if his team had died he just shook his head with a haunted look in his eyes. His first mission failure and he failed his team. For almost a month after that fateful day he locked himself in his room, refusing to talk to anyone and only opening the door whenever someone would bring him food.

It was only when Luna got involved that he finally began to mend, only they know what happened to his team on that fateful day. She was able to get him to come out of the room once more, with a newfound strength in his eyes and a smile on his face. Ever since then he's acted as a sort of mentor to younger pokemon, going out with them on their first mission or teaching new Ghosts some of his old moves. He's been a steady figure around the Guild and will likely stay that way for years to come, which is good considering the rising tension in the lands. even Shade is finding it hard to keep up his smile knowing that a war is on the loom.

Personality: Shade is a naturally light hearted fellow, smiling at all times and cracking jokes in conversation casually. Not to say they're good jokes, usually they're pretty terrible puns. But puns are better than the elaborate pranks he'll come up with when he's really bored, and he can get quite creative considering he's a Ghost type. When in battle he tries to keep his distance, using long range Sludge Bombs and Shadow Balls, however he's not opposed to duking it out fist to Shadow Fist. Tends to get very quiet whenever anyone brings up Mewtwo.

Important Items: Wears a necklace with a strange stone attached to it...

Notes: Shade is a shiny Pokemon, however others barely notice due to the minor color variance between regular Gengars and shiny ones.
