[b]History[/b]: 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...

[b]Personality[/b]: 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.

[b]History[/b]: 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.

[b]Personality[/b]: 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.

[b]History[/b]: 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.

[b]Personality[/b]: 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...

[b]History[/b]: 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.

[b]Personality[/b]: 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.
