I needed to find something to occupy my time anyways. This would be my persona 'Data' (name taken from my fursona obviously)...So let's begin this is going to be a long comment. so I won't say anything about the actual pictures.

History
Data was always interested in the Mythologies of the pokemon world: a pokemon that controlled the currents, one that brought the rainbow to the sky, the so-called god of the pokemon world, and two that created the continents especially interested him. So Data wanted to be a trainer as soon as he realized what one was so was extremely excited when it was his tenth birthday and he could finally get one from Professor Birch in New Bark Town. Shortly after he received Nevi he used Nevi to steal the items necessary to begin a journey. Data always avoided getting Nevi into overly dangerous situations and over a short time caught more Pokemon. At first Nevi was his voice of reason but became more accustomed to his methods after a while. In slightly under two years Data had gotten every badge that the Johto region had to offer using Nevi, a non-electrical Ampharos (Luna), a ninja obsessed Furret (Lotus), a sunlight loving Noctowl (Ein), a manipulative young Espeon (IQ), and an overly resilient one eyed Umbreon (Immortal). Not having had enough fun Data shortly traveled to Kanto using the same Pokemon and quickly conquered the regions gyms as well. The Kanto region having been too easy with his faithful team, he set sail for Hoenn with only Immortal accompanying him to make it more of a challenge. Data stayed in Hoenn for two years training all the Pokemon he had caught up to that point and only taking Gym battles whenever he just happened to feel like it. After conquering the four regions of the land at the age of seventeen Data joined Team Rocket in order to feel his time. During his year and a half working for Team Rocket Data became a slightly infamous criminal known for his sly tongue and ruthless Typhlosion partner. However after some Rockets began to talk down to Luna for being unable to use electric attacks, Data promptly betrayed Team Rocket while at the same time negotiating a clean record with the police force. Data most recently worked for Professor Birch researching Pokemon reproduction and evolution before he heard about the Ohana Island competition. Data’s exact reason for wanting to enter the competition is unknown but by his reputation he likely has it more thought out than for just pure fun.

Appearance
Data, although no longer a part of Team Rocket, keeps the coat he got from Team Rocket both as a way to mock the organization and because he admits it looks cool. He may also carry a red Breloom print backpack if he plans on going on any long journeys.

Attitude
Data may seem to be relaxed and confident but underneath his calm exterior he’s always thinking about the moves of others and what he could do to get them to react how he wants. Despite this he instantly becomes overly enthusiastic and absentminded when meeting a Legendary Pokemon. Mostly evil in nature Data merely does what’s best for him and his Pokemon not taking what happens to anything else into account.

Extended Analysis- Alpha
Species: Swampert
Full Name: Alpha L. Avorta
Gender: Male
Overall Team Ranking: 4th
Group: Elites/ Sandstorm
Age: 9
Attacks: Earthquake, Avalanche, Super Power, Protect
Hold Item of Choice: Leftovers
Data’s Given Item: Focus Sash
Nature: Quiet
Battle Strategy: Wait for commands
Alpha was always the quiet type which is the only thing that hasn’t changed from when he was a mudkip in the labs. He sees Nevi’s challenges as childish but accepts them anyhow as he has learned from experience it is the only way for the two to get along somewhat. Alpha is the fourth member of the Elites being outranked by an Espeon named IQ, a Blissey named Relia, and an Umbreon named Immortal. He has a very determined attitude in battle not giving in until he physically can no longer battle even against grass-types. He is also very protective of those caught during Data’s Hoenn and Sinnoh journeys as well as his two children and mate Luna.

Extended Analysis- Spooky
Species: Shedinja
Full Name: ‘Juslene’ Spooky
Gender: N/A
Overall Team Ranking: 12th
Group: The Outsiders
Age: 9 (technically)
Attacks: X-scissor, Shadow Sneak, Dig, Confuse Ray
Hold Item of Choice: Destiny Knot
Data’s Preferred Item: Lum Berry
Nature: Quirky
Battle Strategy: Get it over with
Spooky is one of the most mysterious Pokémon that Data has on his team. At first Data was completely unaware that when his Nincada, Juslene, evolved that she would make two Pokémon; so at the sight of the moving shell Data called for his Linoone, Revil, to attack the ‘ghost shell’. It was only later that day that Data was told that when Nincada evolve they make a Shedinja and a Ninjask. Because Data never used a pokeball on the Shedinja it was a terrifying night when Data woke up face to face with the apparition. Spooky has become known for being quite the intelligent Pokémon which counters her ‘sister’s’ mindless way of battling; she is the group’s cook, secondary medic (with Relia being primary), and lead in any unknown locations as she always tends to know the way to go. Spooky always tries her hardest in battle despite being the easiest to knock over given the right moves. Despite her appearance and generally blank attitude Spooky is actually very playful and emotional.

Extended Analysis- Nevi
Species: Typhlosion
Full Name: Nevi
Gender: Male
Overall Team Ranking: 5th
Group: Borderline Elites/ Johto’s Most Wanted
Age: 10
Attacks: Flamethrower, Shadow Claw, Purgatory, Solar Beam
Hold Item of Choice/ Data’s given Item: Power Herb
Nature: Naughty
Battle Strategy- *against opponents he has the advantage over* toy with the opponent let them realize just how helpless they are then leave them as close to fainting as possible without finishing them
*against anyone else* wait for Data’s command
Nevi was not the bravest Cyndaquil nor the most prepared for battle even though that is what the lab was supposed to raise him for. He was constantly getting outdone in everything by the Totodile that he was with even though the Chikorita with them always tried to encourage him. As a par normal circumstance Nevi was given to Data who he was surprised liked him more than the Totodile. Through the years Nevi has become more accustomed to battle (enjoying it even) and through prolonged exposure to the true Data Nevi has become somewhat ruthless and sadistic as well. Though absent for most of Data’s Hoenn journey he developed a rivalry with Data’s new starter Alpha. He was Data’s Rocket Pokémon of choice when the evil organization had him do anything. One day in the normal training regimen of beating Johto trainers a stray burst of fire hit a small Koromori who would later be called Koco. Nevi is strangely apologetic towards Koco and does try to seem less threatening around her even holding back on an attack if he thinks it would startle her.

Extended Analysis- Lullaby
Species: Ampharos
Full Name: Lullaby Avorta
Gender: Female
Overall Team Ranking: tied for 18th
Group: The Digital Age
Age: 6
Attacks: Attract, Thunder, Signal Beam, Volt Change
Hold Item of Choice/ Data’s Given Item: Zap Plate (note shaped)
Nature: Sassy
Battle Strategy: No matter what have fun with it
Data was surprised when his original Ampharos, Luna, had twins and even more so because she had them with Alpha. Lullaby is odd in that she can even have fun when getting her ass kicked; she even loves to have mock matches with members of the Elite even though it’s a current record of 0 to 56. Lullaby’s twin brother is a shiny called Omega who she jokes should be the girl because of his odd coloring. Even though the two are of the exact same strength and ability thanks to special training with each other she was picked as part of Data’s team to take on the Ohana Islands. She dreams of one day becoming one of the Elite like her father and loves that she is partnered with him on this challenge.

Extended Analysis- Koco
Species: Kokoromori
Full Name: Hitomiko Colosa
Gender: Female
Overall Team Ranking: 16th
Group: The New League
Age: 5
Attacks: Heart Stamp, Telekinesis, Future Sight, Substitute
Hold Item of Choice: Exp Share
Data’s Given Item: None
Nature: Lonely
Battle Strategy: Avoid being hit period
Koco is Data’s most recent capture and is already climbing the ranks she is part of the New League which are exceptional young Pokémon. Koco has an inborn fear of darkness and an acquired fear of fire thanks to Nevi accidently shooting her out of the sky. Though obedient Koco is still a child at heart and absolutely refuses to battle any fire types or dark types. Koco has become more relaxed around Nevi through their time together but still refuses to go close to or touch Nevi. She is also an extremely clingy Pokémon to Data; he even jokes that if she were to be like this with the items he gives her she’d be perfect. Koco doesn’t talk much with the other Pokémon on the team and loves speaking with Data though he doesn’t really understand her.

Extended Analysis- Sandtrap
Species: Flygon
Full Name: Octavious ‘Sandtrap’ Kaidan
Gender: Male
Overall Team Ranking: 7th
Group: The Fly Guys/ Borderline Elites
Age: 8
Attacks: Earthquake, Draco Meteor, U-turn, Fly
Hold Item of Choice/Data’s Given Item: Choice Scarf
Nature: Impish
Battle Strategy: Relentless, fast, and strong attacks to keep the opponent off guard: only listen to Data if he gives orders fast enough
Sandtrap was once a normal desert Trapinch until the day he was defeated in a single attack by Immortal after trying to catch him in the sand. However he wasn’t captured at the time as he learned that Immortal was separated from his trainer. Sandtrap offered to accompany Immortal in finding him in apology for the failed attack and through their trek learned a lot about the benefits of having a trainer. As soon as they had found Data Sandtrap was eager to become his Pokémon and was captured and trained at the request of Immortal. Sandtrap has developed a mixed personality from his training: being relaxed, laid back, and very prone to childish pranks outside of battle; while being relentless, quick, and serious in battle. For some reason Sandtrap retains much of his predatory tactic from when he was a Trapinch, burrowing underground and snaring his prey as they come near hence his nickname Sandtrap. He has had two children one by Data’s Spinarak named Ariana and a second by Copycat the Ditto.
