Have any of you guys got full teams for your character's? I would love to hear them if you do, I'm interested to find out what they would have chosen to accompany them
Ah, and so we begin the tragic tale that is Cassandra Michaels.
About several months (six or seven) prior to the Dark Tournament, Cassie owned a full, highly trained, widely acknowledged, elite team consisting of:
A male Ninetales nicknamed Nine, a very wise, intelligent, yet slightly naive and innocent minded Ninetales who acts as Cassie's voice of reason. He has an involuntary habit of chewing things,
specifically Ryu's ear, and chasing after small, fast moving objects. He was the one who had permanently disfigured Cassie's hands, though accidentally, as a Vulpix. Since then on, he has become a lot more mellow. Specializes in long ranged and indirect attacks, as well as set ups,
A male Lucario, nicknamed Ryu, an extremely serious, uptight, overprotective dad that Cassie calls a partner. His overprotectiveness stemming from Nine's disfiguring of her hands, and has since inly grown. He was the sole reason Cassie hasn't lost an eye or a limb yet. He has a very strong sense of justice, and kept Cassie from abusing her ability to manipulate people. A well-rounded fighter, with aura detection to his advantage,
A female Roserade nicknamed Jade, very narcissistic and graceful. She lives for her praises, and always does things big. A true showman, specialising in set ups, and indirect attacks,
A female Froslass nicknamed Aurora, then the newest member of the group who was still discovering her place in the team. She is klutzy and ditzy, but she does try very hard. Aurora aspires to be just like Jade, her idol. Very good with long ranged attacks,
A male Swanna nicknamed Ace, a neat freak, clean freak, and group medic. He takes care of Cassie's injuries if she were to attain some, and was her primary means of transportation. Specializing in long ranged and aerial attacks, he mostly preferred to stay out of the nitty gritty of battles and is the team's Tank who constantly prunes his feathers,
And a male Garchomp nicknamed Fang, a trigger happy, bullheaded, loud, boiserous, reckless, and competitive dragon that often doesn't listen to his trainer. He tries his best though, because he hates to dissapoint his trainer, but often gets so caught up in the heat of battle that he forgets his instructions. He is also the reason for the scar under Cassie's eye. Regardless, he was the strongest member on the team, and is the one who can use Mega Evolution.
Cassie has raised, trained, and traveled with them for nearly a decade, and not being the type to catch pokemon to simply stockpile them in PC boxes (she preferred the effectiveness of focusing on only one team to build and grow with, and she did not have a pokedex to need to catch 'em all), they were the only pokemon she ever owned. Each having their own unique quirks, they were like a family that she never had, and over the years she had grown emotionally dependent on them. Of course, then Team Rocket came in and screwed it all up for her.
As a form of interrogation torture during her custody by Team Rocket, Cassie was manipulated by a Hypno to release her pokemon one by one from their pokeballs, and each time she failed to answer a question, they would proceed to have her crush the pokeball beneath her feet, diminishing her ownership of them. Fortunately at the time, Nine had been separated from Cassie during her capture, and she was spared his one, empty pokeball. But with the threat of the Rockets capturing her team instead, Cassie ordered them to get away as far as they can and never return.
So now, all the pokemon she has left is Nine, a Ralts she received from a course she took in a Hoenn university (nicknamed Peridot, which later evolved into a Kirlia to rival Lady's own evolution), and of course, our favorite Liepard; received as a newly hatched Purrloin from Cassie's ex-boyfriend.
She accidentally evolved herself into a Liepard prematurely when she found a stash of rare candies during a navigation and survival run through anow undiscovered ruin in Route 15.
I
am planning for Cassie to someday reunite with her old team, but, we'll just see how this roleplay goes first.
