Zoroark | Level 43 | Female
sassy nature, thoroughly cunning
Ability: Illusion
Met at: Entralink at level 5 (starter)
Moves: Faint Attack, Fury Swipes, Foul Play, Night Slash
Description: Clever and mischievous, this Zoroark greatly reminds N of the Zorua he befriended as a child. She is a spirited trickster overflowing with confidence. However, she can be a bit timid around humans, and is likely to use her Illusion ability to disguise herself as a safety precaution around them. But she is still much more open to social interaction than her trainer is.
Linoone | Level 40 | Male
jolly nature, highly curious
Ability: Pickup
Met at: Route 1 at level 4
Moves: Tackle, Growl, Fury Swipes, Sand-Attack
Description: Linoone is a cheerful Pokemon with seemingly boundless energy. He is very curious about everything he encounters, and is constantly zigzagging from one exciting object to the next. He is also eager to please, and will not hesitate to bring some of these objects back to N as gifts. He is very fond of N, and began following him not long after he showed up on Route 1. He has refused to leave N's side since, despite N's protests to taking the Pokemon out of his natural habitat.
Sigilyph | Level 45 | Female
lonely nature, strong willed
Ability: Magic Guard
Met at: Accumula Town at level 19 (event)
Moves: Air Cutter, Hypnosis, Psybeam, Zen Headbutt
Description: Encountered during September's "Attack of the Ancient Pokemon", Sigilyph gave... a bit of a unique first impression, crashing into and injuring N when he attempted to reason with her. N captured her in a sheer act of self-defense. However, as with the other guardian Pokemon, Sigilyph has calmed considerably since the attack, and actually displays a docile, affectionate disposition toward N and his traveling partners. Contrary to most Sigilyphs, this particular one seems to dislike being alone, and enjoys receiving attention. She is also very intelligent, able to pick up on and replicate the behavioral habits of humans, and able to solve N's void cube relatively quickly.
Absol | Level 37 | Male
serious nature, proud of its power
Ability: Super Luck
Met at: Route 2 at level 11 (swarm)
Moves: Slash, Pursuit, Swords Dance, Razor Wind
Description: Absol appeared to N and company sometime in October, having predicted some impending disaster and concerned for their well-being. He grew fond of N fairly quickly, and took it upon himself to protect the traveling group until the disaster came to pass. He isn't quite sure if it has or not (especially considering the trouble N tends to get into on a regular basis), and doesn't seem to care; he enjoys battling, and views N as a worthy trainer that will make him stronger. For Absol, that's enough of a reason to stay.
Nidorino | Level 30 | Male
rash nature, likes to fight
Ability: Poison Point
Met at: Striaton City (event)
Moves: Head Smash, Double Kick, Horn Attack, Poison Sting
Description: Given to N as an egg, Nidorino was well cared for from the start. He's precocious in a way, seemingly rearing for battle from the moment he hatched. He is very headstrong, not hesitating to pick a fight with anything that happens to irritate him in one way or another, making him a bit of a handful for N to care for. Because he was raised from egg state, Nidorino sees N more as a parent than a trainer. While this does make him perhaps closer to N than the others on his team, this also means N is meant to teach him the ways of battle, a task N is... not exactly prepared for. Bruises everywhere oh geez. There is also a budding rivalry between Nidorino and Absol, which doesn't really help matters either.
Darmanitan | Level 39 | Female
jolly nature, likes to relax
Ability: Hustle
Met at: Route 4 at level 22
Moves: Flare Blitz, Hammer Arm, Thrash, Fire Punch
Description: Despite her fierce appearance, Darmanitan is perhaps the most pleasant and friendly of N's Pokemon, possessing a warm, almost motherly disposition. Like the others of N's team, she joined willingly, either out of curiosity or a natural instinct to protect the traveling group. She is happy and calm most of the time, with a positive attitude that seems to be infectious. She is the one that usually quells any disputes within the team (such as the tussles Nidorino and Absol tend to get into), and does her best to comfort N whenever he is upset. But with her caring attitude comes a fiercely protective streak; anyone dares to hurt her teammates or trainer, THEY WILL PAY.
Ariados
| Level 22 | Male
lax nature, thoroughly cunning
Ability: Swarm
Met at: Desert Resort at level 5 (event)
Moves: Electroweb, Poison Sting, Night Shade, Fury Swipes
Description: Ariados is... a bit of an oddball. He arrived inexplicably in a Pokeball that seems to appear out of thing air when N awoke after the exploration through Relic Castle. Like Zoroark, he is a trickster, though with a bit more of a malicious streak. He enjoys simply relaxing above all else, and will not hesitate to trick others to complete his tasks for him. On the up side, he seems to be on good terms with N, and his cleverness can be very beneficial to the team. Still, some of his ideas can make N a bit uncertain...
Dwebble | Level 13 | Female
timid nature, highly curious
Ability: Sturdy
Met at: Desert Resort at level 5 (swarm)
Moves: Fury Cutter, Rock Blast, Withdraw
Description: N encountered Dwebble during the ~*Great Bug Hatching Season*~. Amongst all the swarming newborn bugs, Dwebble was a bit overwhelmed and grew to be just a little skittish. When she hatched, instead of being cared for by the local colonies of other Dwebble, she was instead looked after by a Growlithe, who seemed to think she was some sort of toy due to the round shape of her shell. The Growlithe was still very protective of her, and his constantly cheerful and welcoming disposition rubbed off on her, encouraging the timid curiosity she has now. She and Growlithe joined N's team not long afterward, as Growlithe wanted a trainer again, and Dwebble wasn't about to let her guardian wander off on her. N is very patient with her, and avoids putting her in stressful situations (like battling) whenever he can. Still, she's getting more independent as time goes on.
Growlithe | Level 36 | Male
hardy nature, impetuous and silly
Ability: Intimidate
Met at: Desert Resort at level 27
Moves: Bite, Roar, Flame Wheel, Fire Fang
Description: The Growlithe that cared for Dwebble. In contrast to the Bug type, Growlithe is always energetic and open to... just about everything. As a pup, he actually belonged to another trainer, who later released him into the wild. As such, Growlithe is very accustomed to humans, and in fact seeks them out to give him attention. Not unlike a normal Earth dog in disposition, he's consistently cheerful and fiercely loyal to his trainer.
Servine | Level 17 | Male
sassy nature, proud of its power
Ability: Overgrow
Met at: Nimbasa City at level 5 (swarm)
Moves: Tackle, Vine Whip, Wrap, Leaf Tornado
Description: Servine takes himself very seriously; possessing some amount of vanity, he holds himself in high regard, and is constantly trying to show off and outshine others. Because of this, he has a bit of a violent streak when faced with other Pokemon, which really led to him joining N's team. Irked by how the Grass-type persistently attacked him and his team, N eventually settled the dispute with a battle. After winning, he offered to take the Snivy along so he could channel that pride in battle. The Snivy accepted begrudgingly. As is to be expected, his disposition often clashes with Absol and Nidorino's.
Ditto, "Reshiram" | Level 14 | Genderless
mild nature, mischievous
Ability: Imposter
Met at: Nimbasa City at level 10 (event)
Moves (as Ditto): Transform
Moves (as Reshiram): Hyper Beam, Fusion Flare, Extrasensory, Reflect
Description: An odd Ditto that enjoys taking on the form of the legendary dragon Reshiram instead of its own true form. Either by choice or by some fluke of its Imposter ability, the Reshiram form is usually very small-- roughly the size of a Joltik. Though the habit of transforming into Reshiram hits a bit of a sore spot for N, the Ditto doesn't mean any harm, and really just enjoys taking on different forms to garner as much attention as it can. It is by nature rather docile and friendly toward both humans and other Pokemon.
Minun | Level 31 | Male
naive nature, good perseverance
Ability: Minus
Met at: Lostlorn Forest at level 29
Moves: Thunder Wave, Swift, Spark, Electro Ball
Description: A cheerleader by nature, Minun joined N's team during his search for Miror B., automatically offering help when he learned of the threat the man posed. Minun is less of a battler than most of his teammates, but he's valiant to boot, and won't hesitate to offer himself up as an opponent.
Serperior | Level 36 | Female
rash nature, thoroughly cunning
Ability: Overgrow
Met at: apparently Nuvema Town at level 5 (liberated at Lostlorn Forest at level 36)
Moves: Slam, Growth, Mega Drain, Leaf Blade
Description: An ill-tempered Pokemon that N liberated from Miror B. after defeating him in battle. Now, she seems to spend most of her time going berserk and trying to tear her new trainer and teammates apart. N naturally doesn't blame her for it; he's under the impression that she's undergone a great deal of mistreatment. He mainly cites the shadow that's developed in her heart as evidence of that-- a result of some experimentation with Shadow Pokemon technology. It makes Serperior difficult for N to read (as such, more unpredictable), but he's confident to banish the shadow and bring back out more of the Pokemon she was before the experimentation.
