The original Paper Mario on N64 actually. Though now that I look back I also like the Koopa Bros, General Guy's and Huff N Puff's themes...

and what is Crystal Kings?

Orre Trainer Academy

"he's constantly trying to prove herself to Ritzy, who only really caught her because it reminded her of the Casteliacones she loves."

This is one of the best things I've seen all day.

also, Crystal King (not sure if we're restricting it to TTYD or not but its my favorite battle theme)

Orre Trainer Academy

Haha, I considered a few paper mario themes myself

Hmm, was there something wrong with mine or did you just miss it? It's in a hider so that would've been easy to do.

Alex

Name: Alexander Cobalt
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Appearance:

Yeah I'm shorter than most guys my age. I also workout and train just as hard as my Pokemon. Who needs height?
Region of Origin: Sinnoh
City of Origin: Oreburgh City
History:
I grew up in Oreburgh. My dad was a miner, everyone's dad was a miner. That's all there is to do in that town. Not that it's bad, just gets old is all. Growing up in that sort of town makes you tough. I was the weak little guy back when I started school. I got picked on like none other. Being smarter than most of the bullies didn't help either, just kind of made it worse. My brothers were no help, in fact they considered it a "learning experience." So I took it into my own hands. Wrestling with my dad's Machop, going out and catching a Gligar for myself, talking to girls way out of my league. Somehow it all worked out. "Pretend you've got some self-confidence long enough and it'll happen." Some advice from my uncle that turned out to be too valuable.

School got a lot easier, but I started to get bored. Sure learning is fun, but I'd overcome such a huge obstacle. Seeing all the trainers coming through to challenge the gym all the time, I set my sights on the outside world. A whole wide world of Pokemon out there just waiting for me. I set a challenge for myself: Train for one month, then challenge the gym leader. If you succeed, take off and see the world, explore and challenge trainers with Gligar. If you fail, try again next month. Two months later, I was saying goodbye to my family at the Oreburgh gate. I travelled through Sinnoh with Gligar and then Poliwag, collecting five of the eight badges, when I was offered an opportunity to travel to the Johto region. It was a spur of the moment decision, but I wanted to see more of the world.

In my travels through Johto I managed to meet some friendly people. Gift both an egg and a Razor Fang on separate occasions, going there proved to be the right a good decision. My egg hatched into a Smoochum, lovely little thing. But the Razor Fang's been sitting in my bag for a while. It's to evolve Gligar, but I don't really want to. I'm not one of those saps who wants to leave him like that forever. I just think, why rob him of living up to his full potential in his current form? The same goes for the rest of my Pokemon. I won't let them evolve until I know they're at their peak. Hell, if I ever catch a Magikarp I'll likley train it to jump over a mountain before it evolves. But I digress, I travelled through Johto some more. I gained a few more badges, particiapted in the Pokeathlon a few times. It was a lot of fun showing my Pokemon's skills outside of battle too. Then the letter came. So I apparently I've been extended an invitation to this fancy university. Well, why not?

Personality:
I've been told I have a Napoleon complex. I don't. Just cause I'm short, doesn't mean I'm always trying to make up for it. Yeah, I'm loud. Yeah, I'm confident. Why wouldn't I be? I know I can do anything 'cause I got the brains and the discipline. This world is mine for the taking, but if you're willing to fight as hard as I do, I'm willing to share. I'm a friendly enough, though there's those people put off by my confidence, or "cockiness." Their loss, I guess. In battle I tend to crack jokes. I don't typically tell anyone but it's to keep my competitive nature from getting the best of me and clouding my judgment.

Battle Theme:

Etc:

Pokemon

Species: Gligar
Nickname: Swoops
Appearance:

Personality: Swoops is far more laid back than Alex. He takes things easy. Early on his inability to take a battle seriously often cost them, but overimte he's gotten mroe serious in battle. He still resists having to train though.
Notable Moves: Cross Poison, Acrobatics, Roost

Species: Smoochum
Nickname: Sweets
Appearance:

Personality: Still relatively young, this baby Pokemon is innocent. She's a sweetheart, often looking out for others, and can charm just about anyone. She's easy to startle though and will often start crying.
Notable Moves: Ice Beam, Reflect, Confusion, Sweet Kiss

Species: Poliwag
Nickname: Swirls
Appearance:

Personality: Swirls is kind of a jerk. He cares very little for others, Alex and his teammates among the few exceptions. He enjoys battles and give it his all, the only Pokemon to really enjoy training as much as Alex. He has become fiercely protective of Sweets.
Notable Moves: Body Slam, Rain Dance, Double Team, Scald

Definitely down for this. And uh... I don't mind repeating Pokemon either?

The Friends of Miami

Roberto definitely seemed like he felt out of place. Lucas laughed when Roberto told him where he was from. It was a deep loud laugh, very hard to miss and very distinctive of him. It was the kind of laugh that made other people in the movie theater cringe complain about him to their friends and make his friends embarrassed to go see a comedy with him. It made sense for Roberto to feel out of it though. Home was really far away for this guy. Lucas himself hadn't left his home state except for college and this, much less left the country before.

"Well damn, I wish my home was like this. I just think of dirty streets, shabby old buildings, and way too many smells," he chuckled again. He gladly took the offered hand and shook it. "Nice to meet you too, man. And yeah Jason doesn't usually befriend jerks from what I've seen, even if they make look like it at first glance. But wow, haven't lived with other people huh? You get used to it. You just gotta remember to respect other people's space and quirks and stuff. I remember living with other people for the first time in college." He animatedly narrated the problems he and his first roommate had had concerning wearing shoes on the carpet and bringing back girls to the dorm, onto his hijinks in his first apartment and learning to never sleep with a roommate no matter how attractive she was. It was then he noticed, Roberto had seemed to stop paying attention.

He laughed once more at the apology. "It's cool. As long as it's not that I'm boring or something." He looked out at the view of the beach once more, gesturing toward it with his glass of lemonade. "Well that's the primary attraction right there. The water's refreshing, the hot sand. The women..." he paused and smirked, "it's something else, man. Not sure how it compares to Spain, but it's like heaven to me. There's supposed to be a bonfire later, I don't know if you heard, so that should be fun. Other than that I've only been here a few days myself. I did manage to find a decent bar on the beach. It's not really big or anything, but it's open air on the beach, with live music all the time. It's really chill, a great place to go dancing."
