- Name: Dante Giordano
- Age: 16
- Appearance: "Hm? Want something? I'm bored enough to hear you out."
Dante stands at roughly 5'7" tall, and generally tends to wear his jacket regardless of how hot or cold it might actually be. - Personality: Dante is, by nature, incredibly cocky, almost to the point of arrogance. His pride has yet to be tempered, and humility (though oft-witnessed during his own trips) is not one of his strong points. With that said, he isn't necessarily a 'bad' person at heart; rather, he just has a tendency to blow people off (even if by complete accident) and focus on winning more often than not. To that end, he does often push his Pokemon to their limits in order to get them to reach their 'full potential', even if he puts himself on the edge while doing so.
- History: Raised by two Veterans, Dante grew up always in proximity of the highest levels of competitive battling. As cool as he thought some of the Pokemon in any given competition were, for example, the constant bombardment of knowledge weaved into his life any time he was near it (read: almost always) led to him becoming implicitly aware of all of the intricacies that went into it. This fact, coupled with being brought abroad to watch his parents compete, only served to further emphasize to the growing boy the importance of strategy and preparation at the highest levels of competitition.
With all that said, Dante had never run into 'difficulty' in his life, having had the groundwork for his life set up well in advance. That, coupled with a bit of a cushy upbringing, only led to what he was now. His parents, having realized this fact a bit too late, immediately made preparations to attempt to rectify that—in other words, sending him on his own journey to see the world for what it was, if even just a little. - Party: Gligar
- Inventory:
- A set of ten Pokeballs
- Five Potions
- A Flame Orb, Toxic Orb, and Life Orb (all safely packed and labeled)
- Other: Can play the piano. It's... Better than nothing?

- Name: Francesca Thea Vescovi
- Age: 16
- Personality: A somewhat distant and melancholic girl, upon first impression. Fran is a hard one to get along with, aside from the fact she always seems rather distant from others most of the time, she mostly has a tendency to keep to herself. Not really much in a 'lone wolf' sort of way, mostly that she just doesn't hold much of an interest in interacting with others, or keeping up with them. She does her own thing, at her own pace with a cold-seeming confidence regardless of what everyone else does.
That is to say, she's a rather prideful, calm sort who likes to enjoy her own life as she sees fit whether other people are there to enjoy it or not. As far as other people are concerned, they exist, but she doesn't really have any huge desire to be around them. Loves good food and is rather passionate about it, even if she's uh, 'still learning'. Its one of the few subjects that you'll see her get annoyed or excited about. - History:
Born and raised mostly in Cetare in the regions countryside, Francesca Vescovi has led a somewhat difficult life due to an illness which rendered her blind and sickly at birth. While she eventually recovered her physical health over her formative years, her sight never recovered. Her parents, being somewhat well off restaurant owners, did everything they could to make her life easier. She learned braille, how to move around well enough in her familiar environment.
Still, she desired to try and be as independent as possible. Even as a youngster she more or less pouted until her parents allowed her to go on their international vacations. The first few times, nothing bad happened. However...on a trip to Johto, her parents decided to visit the Ruins of Alph, in which an event that could have been much worse took place.
She got separated from her parents within the ruins.
Understandably terrified, Fran attempted to call out, but there didn't seem to be anyone who had heard her. Her parents had always told her to stay put during such an event occurring, but being blind had caused her hearing to improve quite a bit and what she heard more than scared a blind kid - absolute silence, followed by an eerie noise that almost sounded like distant singing. Something seemed to brush against her, and while most might have been startled or frightened, Fran instead reached out to try and catch it.
Thus was her first meeting with Okky, and the realization of her psychic abilities. The Unown had curiously hovered a bit to close, allowing her to grab it. And then something quite odd happened.
She could see.
At first she was startled, confused. Everything was so...colorful! Was this what having vision was like? Granted she couldn't really make out everything, and she couldn't do it for long - it gave her a mild headache to do it for more than a few seconds then. Seeming to take an interest in this human for whatever reason, the Unown decided to lead her out of the ruins, and stay with her.
Since then she has traveled her parents on other occasional trips to other regions. Unova, Sinnoh, etc, and she ran into other pokemon she had a similar seeming connection with. After she was comfortable doing things on her own, and convincing her parents, she decided she wanted to try traveling alone with just her and her pokemon. - Party: Unown, Solosis, Bronzor
- Inventory:
Potion x3
Pokeball x2 - Other:Francesca was born with extraordinary psychic abilities. While she is still young, she at least, does boast some skill with them. Most notably being able to telepathically communicate with her pokemon, and her ability to 'see' by use of her esp. Likes cooking, but as she is blind, her skill suffers considerably.
- Pokemon: Unown
- Nickname Okky
- Personality: Impish. If one expects this unown to be fairly enigmatic, well, you'd be pretty wrong. Oculus, or Okky, as he's affectionately referred to is a fairly mischievous little floating eyeball. Likes to sneak around, watch people, as well as play minor pranks. Moves things while they're not looking, and generally likes being a bit of a little creep. It seems to care for Fran in some manner, always acting as her main 'eye'.
- Ability: Levitate (prevents damage from ground-type moves)
- Moves: Hidden Power (Rock)
- Other:
- Pokemon: Solosis
Nickname: Mint - Personality: Sassy. Mint is sort of like your rebellious younger sibling. Always getting into trouble, picking fights, and doesn't take back talk from anyone but Fran.
- Ability: Magic Guard (Prevents all damage except from direct attack moves)
- Moves: Protect, confusion, Recover, Endeavor
- Other:
- Pokemon: Bronzor
Nickname: Ceres - Personality: Lax. Lazy, a bit of a slothful sentient metal plate, still acts as kind of a babysitter to the other two and Fran.
- Ability: Heatproof (User takes half damage from fire attacks and Burn status)
- Moves: Tackle, Confusion, confuse Ray, Payback

- Name: Fiore De Luca
- Age: 15
- Appearance: Ignore the text on the hat
- Personality: Energetic, loud, and often focused entirely one thing to a fault, Fiore is rarely, if ever, seen without a large grin and a fiery disposition. Liable to rush ahead or fool around, she is not exactly dependable in situations that require thought and planning. Fiore does give everything her best, though!
Thanks to her friendly demeanour and obliviousness to negative feelings, Fiore treats just about everyone as her best friend, Pokemon included. It takes quite a lot to make her realise if someone isn't too fond of her... and she will simply redouble her efforts for friendship in the face of that knowledge. - History: A typical girl in a typical Pokemon world. Although she hadn't really aspired to be a trainer, she certainly admired those that could command the creatures through battle and competition. Growing up, she had a lot of picture books depicting Cetare's Pokemon, as well as those in foreign lands, and came to love just how pretty and majestic certain Pokemon were. Eventually, while holidaying in Kalos, arrangements were made by her parents to bring back a particular Pokemon, and thus Fiore came to own a Pokemon of her own, Fennekin. A year later, she was gifted another Pokemon whilst in Unova, and caring for these two led Fiore to give some more thought to the idea of making a journey of her own. There were lots of Pokemon to see, after all. And she wanted for fox-like Pokemon, so why not seek them out for herself?
- Party: Fennekin, Zorua
- Inventory: 5 Pokeballs, 2 Potions
- Other:
- Pokemon: Fennekin (Renny)
- Personality: Quiet - generally keeps to herself and prefers to nap in Fiore's lap, though can show signs of smug haughtiness when it receives praise, especially to Shadow.
- Ability:Magician (The Pokemon steals the held item of a Pokemon it hits with a move)
- Moves: Scratch, Tail Whip, Ember
- Other: Imported from Kalos two years prior.
- Pokemon: Zorua (Shadow)
- Personality: Rash - Can be quite impulsive, presuming Fiore's intentions and acting before any commands are given. Although it can get along fine with most people and Pokemon, it tends to bicker a lot with Renny.
- Ability: Illusion (Come out disguised as another Pokemon in the party)
- Moves: Scratch, Leer, Pursuit
- Other: Imported from Unova one year prior.

- Name: Rei Kobayashi
- Age: 20
- Appearance: You don't look like you're from around here...
- Personality: Generally calm and collected, Rei displays a patient demeanour in equal part from how she's been raised and in having spent so much of her life dealing with children of various species and relationships. She likes to think of herself as a reliable big sister figure, even if everyone's not that much younger than she is, and with her own curious streak being something that often threatens to overwhelm her common sense.
Her other major flaw is being particularly taken with Cetare's famous wine industry. - History: Rei is the oldest of six children, with only the youngest two having been born in Cetare. All the rest and all of Rei's family on the maternal side, as far back as they remember, have been born in Ecruteak City. This long presence in the city heavily involves them in its history and its cultural traditions; aunts, grandparents, and cousins are all former or current kimono girls, while some like Rei's mother instead bred the Eevees they favour. She dimly recalls her elderly great-grandmother suggesting that the choice to breed Eevee--with its ability to adapt to various elemental forms--was a way to make amends for how the legendary beasts were treated.
Rei showed more aptitude for following the same path as her mother than the dancing, and despite her preference for the older clothing very much expressed dismay at how elaborate a get-up was involved. From the time she made this choice, Rei has had Kuro and Shiro to raise; good practice for when the family started to grow.
Although her father had previously done a lot of travelling over Johto and Kanto for work, sometimes needing to spend an extended time away from his family, he received an unusual promotion that required a more permanent move to Cetare. Although it may have been possible to remain behind with her cousins, given Rei's age, she was excited about learning all the new language and how to cook with foreign ingredients--though that hasn't gone so well.
The move went pretty smoothly, and although it took her longer than she would have liked to pick up the language, Rei has adapted well enough to the new region, although still favouring her old clothing too much to change. With most of her siblings now being old enough to help with the youngest, she's expressed an interest in becoming something of an Eevee-specialised trainer herself before settling down to breed full time with better knowledge... if that's indeed what she ends up doing. - Party: Umbreon, Espeon, Eevee, Eevee, Eevee, and Eevee.
- Inventory: Rei has in her possession a handful of potions and four everstones, along with some sentimental trinkets from Ecruteak City of no use to a pokemon. She also has cooking gear... even though she's still not the best at using the local ingredients.
- Other: One might find it strange that all of Rei's Eevees are female, given the gender distribution of the species. The answer, of course, is quite simple: when your family business is about breeding something otherwise quite rare, giving away the mothers is a poor idea.
That, and she hardly wants to have more of them on the road.
- Pokemon: Umbreon
- Nickname: Kuro
- Personality: One of Rei's two oldest Pokemon, Kuro seems to have largely taken after her big sister role, being calm and generally seeking to be a calming and nurturing sort. Having never been originally expected to be a trainer's pokemon in any capacity, she resists being stuck in a Poké Ball except when circumstances outright require it.
Nature: Careful - Ability: Synchronize
- Moves: Pursuit, Helping Hand, Tackle, Wish, Baby-Doll Eyes
- Other:
- Pokemon: Espeon
- Nickname: Shiro
- Personality: The other of Rei's original Pokemon, Shiro--as befits her cat-like appearance--is highly curious, especially about anything that happens which it didn't expect. Like Kuro, she extremely dislikes being kept confined and is the far more likely of the two to wander off when Rei isn't looking to go investigate something. She has much less patience for small children.
Nature: Rash - Ability: Magic Bounce
- Moves: Confusion, Helping Hand, Tackle, Tail Whip, Baby-Doll Eyes
- Other:
- Pokemon: Eevee
- Nickname: Momo
- Personality: Somewhat excitable, somewhat skittish, generally cheerful.
Nature: Mild - Ability: Anticipation
- Moves: Covet, Helping Hand, Tackle, Growl, Tail Whip
- Other: Holding an Everstone.
- Pokemon: Eevee
- Nickname: Yuzu
- Personality: The most curious of the four Eevees but also the most easily scared.
Nature: Timid - Ability: Run Away
- Moves: Covet, Helping Hand, Tackle, Growl, Tail Whip
- Other: Holding an Everstone.
- Pokemon: Eevee
- Nickname: Ichigo
- Personality: Clingy and quite irritable.

- Pokemon: Eevee
- Nickname: Ume
- Personality: Relaxed and mellow.
Nature: Docile - Ability: Run Away

Name: Europa Seaforth
Age: 17
Appearance: (See image) In addition to whats seen in the image, she always wears a one-piece swimsuit below her outfit, so she is both warm, and so she is able to take a dive whenever she needs to. She's a big fan of swimming alongside her Pokemon in their natural habitat after all.
Personality:
A personality that could be described as interesting and yet troublesome. Europa is the type of girl that is high-spirited and cheerful but barely spares a thought for the consequences of her actions. Be it foolishly running headfirst into danger or interrupting something that she really shouldn't. She is the type of girl that seems to live in her own world of ocean and sky.
But she also cares really deeply about the thoughts and feelings of everyone around her at the end of the day. She's reckless because she cares, she remains high spirited when no one else will and when it comes to a dangerous sea or a perilous scenario. She'll be the last to jump ship.
Of course that doesn't mean she is without fault. She has a bit of an issue with communicating with others. Sometimes she can be a little overbearing. Other times she can end up completely misreading a scenario, but she presses on ahead with the watchful eye of her Pokemon at her back to make sure she doesn't do anything that could seriously harm her.
History:
The only child of a retired seafaring couple that used to travel the world. Europa was always used to the waves. In fact one could say her familiarity with it stemmed from her birth on her parents houseboat in open water, before they settled down in the region to raise their child. Still! Her father would take her out to sea many a time, to see all the water type Pokemon frolic in their natural habit. Of course one particular scare was when the sea became incredibly stormy one day, and there was a great woosh as a tidal wave passed over the oceans surface, But leaping at the crest of the wave was a sea Pokemon so large she could have sworn it was a creature of myth! Still it completely wrecked her father and hers fishing boat. But in that moment, her heart and soul had been captured by the wonders of the water.
So with a hastily-patched boat, she kept going out to fish for pokemon, honing her skills, and learning more and more about the Pokemon she caught. Soon, a gift of diveballs for her 10th birthday and from that her family of water types would begin to grow. First Wishiwashi, then Wailmer, Then the strangely bonded Corsola and Mareanie Pair where she ended up getting stung by a Toxapex! Gosh even now she remembers how much that hurt and how much she yearned to go back to the sea, but then it struck her as she laid in bed. The region had many lakes, many rivers. Plenty of spots to go fishing, and plenty of places to show to her family of pokemon.
Indeed. This is how she came to the conclusion that she was going to travel the region!
Inventory:
A customised fishing rod for catching pokemon, Reinforced so even a great big one couldn't hope to snap the rod!
3 Dive Balls, the pretty blue colour of the pokeball enchants her.
A spare change of clothes, Two towels, and a tent thats much to large for her to have only for herself (due to an accident at the shopping market)
Other: Lure o' the sea: Her special skill as it were, would be her incredible prowess when it comes to rearing/catching of Pokemon that come from the ocean/lakes/rivers, Pokemon under her care, even if they are runts grow much larger then those that don't as a result of her gentle nurturing. To that end, her Pokemon are much larger then their normal counterparts, in the case of her Mareanie for instance, She is almost twice the size of a normal Mareanie! And Her Wishiwashi can call a greater school. Of course due to this, she is incredibly bad at getting along with Fire type pokemon.
Nickname: Proteus
Personality: A very brave little fish, Proteus is extremely capable of leading the charge into any fray. Displaying great leadership qualities even among Wishiwashi. The small fishes school-form is incredibly larger then normal.
Ability: Schooling
Moves: Water Gun, Growl, Helping Hand,Feint Attack
Other: Her Oldest Pokemon, and the one most likely to attack any that would harm her.
Nickname: Nereus
Personality: A calm pokemon, Nereus is like the wizened old man of the sea. The type to not lose his head in battle at all, and to adjust and react carefully and fully to each and every scenario.
Ability: Pressure
Moves: Splash, Growl, Water Gun, rollout
Other: A pokemon that will always offer a shoulder for her to rest on.
Nickname: Ceto
Personality: Ceto is relaxed, always the type to take things slow and calmly and hold out against the tide. Of course around Calypso she gets rather embarrassed around the affectionate corsola.
Ability: Regenerator
Moves: Haze, Poison Sting, Peck, Bite
Other: A pokemon that will always lend an ear to its trainers rambling.
Nickname: Calypso
Personality: A jolly corsola that can get a little bit over her head. Holds great love and affection for Ceto, A vast deviation among her kind, and always likes to seek hugs from the poison pokemon.
Ability: Regenerator
Moves: Tackle , Harden, Recover, Bubblebeam
Other: A pokemon that will always try to cheer its trainer up.
