Hajime is an Ace Trainer, formerly a member of Team Rocket. He does not talk about the latter and would prefer to pretend it never happened. He mostly hangs around in places like Victory Road, looking for only the strongest of opponents to battle. He won't challenge just anyone to a fight, but if you're brave enough to challenge him to a fight, he won't hold back. He's thought about trying to become a Gym Leader or even the Champion, but he'd prefer to seek out his own opponents without having to worry about the sorts of responsibilities that go along with that sort of thing.

His team consists of Scizor, Volcarona, Scolipede, Armaldo, Accelgor, and Kricketune. Scizor is his favored Pokemon to battle with, and no one's really sure why he's got the Kricketune. (It's not very good at fighting.) The Kricketune is not very bright and prone to popping out of his Pokeball at random times, chirping at inopportune moments, getting into things, and generally making a nuisance of itself.

Former Team Flare member, though he's not going to tell anyone else that. Very unassuming, stocks shelves at a Pokemart, has a (completely overleveled) Klefki that hovers around. Don't let her near your keyring.

Technically, Bakura is a trainer. In practice, he's an explorer and collector, who wanders around with a cloud of mostly ghost types with him, almost as if he'd never heard of pokeballs. He has, of course, but it's much more fun having as many of his friends as possible around him.

His main team consists of Amane the Mismagius, Annin the Hoppip (who seems to have taken root in his hair), Fuushi the Drifblim (who he promises hasn't taken any children, really!), Zoku the Golbat, Gollum the Sableye and Kage the Banette.

Oddly enough, quite a lot of people who hear him talking with out seeing im first expect him to be someone else and have a pikachu...

Laaaaaate to the meme...

Natalie is the daughter of a famed Dark-type Pokemon gym leader. Jacob Waters thought that he would double-cross Team Plasma and beat them at their own well-hidden nefarious schemes... but he made a serious misstep and vanished. (Dying? In Pokemon? What is this that you speak of?) This left Natalie alone to run the gym, a task that she's not sure that she's suited to. She's often found straying from her gym-based duties, searching for any sign of him. (And requiring any protagonists on the way to the League to track her down and bail her out, certainly...)

She thinks of herself as not being a very good Pokemon trainer, and leans a little heavily on some of her father's Pokemon that he left behind. His Honchcrow doesn't like to listen to her, and his Drapion sort of terrifies her. She prefers to battle with her own Purrloin and Pawniard when she's out in the field, because they're hers. But the full team is in use when engaging in gym battles, and it's in Pokemon battling that she's an almost entirely different person. While she's usually somewhat quiet and reserved with a sarcastic edge, she rants and raves and cackles when all caught up in the excitement of the moment.

Gamzee is That Guy. You know the guy. He just shows up, in an ally, the forest, a cave, the middle of the motherfucking ocean, wherever. He's there. And he is ready to sell you something-- and by something, I mean it's probably some wacked out potion with crazy effects-- for the low, low price of 420. And probably give you a shit ton of freebies too. You can't escape, so don't even bother. He's gonna take all your monies. What's he do with it? Who knows. It's a mystery. Kinda like That Guy himself. But he says you're friends so what can you do?

He's got like, eight pokemon (pretend it's possible to have that many). Mr.Mime Jr, that sloth one, the evil zipper puppet (that is his BEST FRIEND), Drifblim (who probably took him), Slowking, Spinda, Tangela, and go-goat. So the top row team here: boop
