MODIFIERS
Poke Master +2
-Cynthia is one of the greatest Pokemon trainers of all time, and one of the toughest Pokemon League Champions ever. Her experience is only matched by her natural talent.
-This modifier adds to any action related to Pokemon either by the action itself, its use or the situation. It adds to her Combat actions used against Pokemons, to her Ranged Combat when throwing Pokeballs, to her Pokemon Trainer action, etc.
Attractive +2
-Adds to most uses of Social Skills (except Intimidate) or other actions in which physical beauty plays a role
Deep Reserves 1
Reflexive Dodge +1
Mental Defense +3
Wealth 5
-As the Pokemon League champion and a very skilled archaeologist, Cynthia has gained a large personal wealth battling trainers and finding precious artefacts.
CHALLENGES
-Compulsion to stick up for underdog (-3; Cynthia may be the champion of Sinnoh's Pokemon League, but she hasn't allowed her success to go to her head. She is ready and willing to help people in need, and cannot stand bullies, criminals and people abusing their power.)
-Refusal to take a life (-1; Cynthia is a Pokemon trainer and an adventuress, not a murderer. She'd never willingly kill anyone or allow someone to kill someone else if she has anything to say about it.)
-Honorable (-2; Cynthia never cheats or lie, always keep her word if she can and always gives her best. She lives by her own rules, but will respect those of others unless they severely clash with hers.)
-Duty (-3; to her Pokemons. More than mere friends, Cynthia's Pokemons are, from her viewpoint, part of herself. They are family, trusted allies, and just like they take care of her and protect her, she looks out for them and takes very good care of them.)
EQUIPMENT
-Black outfit and shoes
-Kimono (+1 Defense. An elaborate black with gold trimming shin length kimono with a wide skirt bottom)
-Pumps (+1 to Durability for the purpose of walking or running long distances in high heels. A pair of black 4-inch stilletto pumps with a built-in Stark technology massage and pedicure function [designed for optimal comfort])
-Black coat (+2 Cold Defense; yet isn't too hot too be worn all the time)
-Pokédex (also works as a Handheld Computer. Grants +2 to General Knowledge [Pokemon, Types/weaknesses, Legendary Pokemon]. Completely waterproof.)
-Poké Watch (also works as a Calculator, Flashlight, Timer, etc. Completely waterproof.)
-Super Rod (a high-quality fishing rod, that can be folded and easily carried in a bag. It grasnts +2 to all fishing attempts.)
-9 Pokémon (Garchomp, Lucario, Spiritomb, Togekiss, Roserade, Palkia, Rotom, Darkrai, Vanilite)
-Black one-piece swimsuit
-9 Superior Ultra Balls (+3 weapon; deals no real damage, but captures target if stones used exceed Intelligence plus remaining Health. Only works on Pokemon or certain animals/creatures, as told by the GM. NOTE: Even if the "attack" fails, these Pokéballs arenb't destroyeds and may be used again until they catch something.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STORY: Cynthia was one among many young Pokemon trainers, eager to go on an adventure and explore the world, to learn its secrets and seek the truth behind the legends of ancient times she had read about in the books. However, the blonde girl was somewhat different from most trainers. Gifted with an incredible intellect and great natural potential as a trainer, she had a natural affinity with Pokemons and no small amount of talent for tactics and battles. Mature for her age, she had already understood the importance of the bond between the Pokemon and their trainer, and she considered her Pokemon as her friends... in fact, even more than mere friends, they were her family.
The girl travelled Sinnoh for months, finding new Pokemons, meeting new people and battling other trainers as she visited new towns. She visited ancient ruins and temples, searching for artefacts and legends of the past, as well as rare Pokemons. Soon, she had made quite a reputation for herself, and after having gathered enough Pokemon badges, she travelled to the Victory Road, managed to get on the other side and challenged the Elite Four and their champion, Lucian. Despite the power of the Elite Four, and the incredible skill of Lucian, Cynthia defeated them all, becoming one of the youngest champions of Sinnoh (as well as one of the few girls to become champion), ever. These epic battles made Cynthia's main pokemon, Garchomp, famous, because not even once was the Mach Pokemon defeated even during the battles against the Elite Four and Lucian, and despite fighting furiously during all five Pokemon matches.
As the new champion of the League, Cynthia travelled the world again, searching for secrets that were previously inaccessible, and helping two of Professor Rowan's pupils, Lucas and Dawn, to fight the group of criminals known as Team Galactic and becoming great trainers of their own.
Eventually, Cynthia teamed up with Dawn to attempt to capture two legendary Pokemon, Dialga and Palkia. Together, the two managed to defeat the great dragons (in fact, Cynthia only used a single Pokemon to defeat Palkia: Garchomp, of course!), and they decided to keep one each.
Later, both Lucas and Dawn went through the Victory Road to battle the Elite Four and challenge Cynthia. Although Lucas didn't make it past Lucian (now the last of the Elite Four), Dawn managed to fight her way to Cynthia and fight her in one of the greatest Pokemon League battles ever seen, but in the end, she couldn't defeat the Champion. Cynthia encouraged her to not give up and train even harder so that she could become the next champion, and Dawn thanked her for both the battle and her kind words, swearing that "next time will be different."

-Sand Tomb (Force Blast, ignores Reflexive Dodge, causes a -1 sit.mod. to all actions of any opponents not immune to the effects of Sand in an area of 2 around the target)
-Earthquake (2x damage, may be Area effect, does not affect flying opponents unless they are in contact with the ground or under a building or some other structure before it collapses due to this attack. Deals 3x damage if target is underground when the attack occurs.)
-Dig (not an attack per se, but it allows Garchomp to burrow through the ground at up to his regular speed (5 in this case) and possibly attack by surprise or simply create tunnels for any number of reasons.)
-Sandstorm (create a lasting Sandstorm not unlike those happening naturally in deserts. The effect has an area equal to half as many stones played in this action rounded down, causes a -1 sit.mod. to all actions of any being caught in the sandstorm who isn't immune to the effects of Sand, and makes breathing and sight as difficult as during a natural sandstorm. The effect will last for 1 panel per stone used in the action or until Garchomp ends it herself.)

Tail +1
Hard to Kill
-Like all Pokemons, Garchomp is incredibly resilient for a creature of her size. Most attacks that should have killed her will only make her faint, often giving Cynthia enough time to return her to her Pokeball to heal her when she can. Of course, it isn't impossible that Garchomp might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-4; to Cynthia. Garchomp is incredibly loyal to Cynthia and isn't afraid one bit to fight to the death for her. She cares for her trainer more than for anything or anyone else, and she knows that the girl feels the same about her.)
-Temper (-2; Garchomp is tough, powerful and fearsome... and she has the temper to go with her skills. While she wouldn't mind much if Cynthia did something that bothered her a bit, the same cannot be told about other people, and she will express her disapproval very clearly to anyone who behaves wrongly in her eyes... Especially if "behaving wrongly" includes "mistreating Cynthia".)
-Compulsion to stick up for underdog (-3; Garchomp, like her owner, can't stand people or creatures abusing their power for no good reason. She will gladly defend those who can't defend themselves.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 3x damage from Ice-based attacks and 2x damage from Dragon-based attacks)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Garchomp is Cynthia's most trusted friend and Pokemon; the two were together for most of their lives. Most people aren't aware of this fact, but the "Pokemon Starter" Professor Rowan gave to the young blonde girl when she first became a Trainer was actually a small female Gible, who would later evolve into the fearsome dragon it is now.
Garchomp is Cynthia's main Pokemon in most situations; when she wants to travel far, she rides her; when she needs to defend herself, she calls her; when people ask her about her favorite Pokemon, she talks about her. Some of her other Pokemons may be better suited for some tasks, but Garchomp is her favorite for most. It was Garchomp who single-handedly ensured that Cynthia became Sinnoh's Pokemon League's champion, defeating the League and their former champion, Lucian, all by herself.

Hard to Kill
-Like all Pokemons, Lucario is incredibly resilient for a creature of his size. Most attacks that should have killed him will only make him faint, often giving Cynthia enough time to return him to his Pokeball to heal him when she can. Of course, it isn't impossible that Lucario might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-4; to Cynthia. Lucario is pretty much as loyal to Cynthia as Garchomp herself is, because it was still in its egg when it came into her possession, and he sees her at the very least as a big sister and the one person who has always taken care of him. Lucario has self-styled himself her personal bodyguard [despite Garchomp obviously thinking of herself as such] and trains really hard every day to be strong enough to protect her if the need arise.)
-Extreme vanity (-2; Lucario considers himself as THE greatest martial artist, anywhere and ever. He won't back down from a challenge unless Cynthia specifically orders him to do so, and does not agree with anyone thinking otherwise.)
-Overconfident (-1; Lucario is so proud of his own abilities and fighting skills that he often fails to see when the odds are against him, sometimes leading it to defeat. Luckily for him, Cynthia isn't as blind as him and often makes up for his mistakes.)
-Showoff (-1; Lucario considers himself as awesome and acts as such.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Fire, Fighting and Ground-type attacks.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: While she has had Garchomp with her for a longer time, Cynthia was Lucario's trainer for its entire life. Cynthia was given a Pokemon egg by a trainer she met during her travels, and she kept it with her until it hatched, and she has kept the pokemon inside it, Riolu (who later evolved into Lucario) ever since to her side.
Lucario is a loud-mouthed showoff who isn't afraid to challenge most anything that dares to claim he isn't the best martial artist ever, and for all his boasting, he is actually pretty darn good. He is very protective of Cynthia and shows distrustful of most people out of caution. Despite his sometimes bothersome personality and his great pride and arrogance, he has a good heart and he and Cynthia share a very close bond.

Most attacks that should have killed her will only make her faint, often giving Cynthia enough time to return her to her Pokeball to heal her when she can. Of course, it isn't impossible that Roserade might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-3; to Cynthia. Roserade was the first pokemon caught by Cynthia and has been with her ever since, and thinks of her as a friend and fellow adventurer!)
-Curious (-2; Roserade is a true explorer, leaving almost no mustery unsolved or stone unturned if she can help it... sometimes to the point of pushing it way too far. Of course, she tries not to do anything that would put her, or especially Cynthia in trouble, but at times, her curiosity gets the better of her.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Fire, Ice, Flying and Psychic-type attacks.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Roserade was the first pokemon Cynthia ever caught, and has been around ever since. While she is far from the best fighter of Cynthia's team, she has her own strengths and skills that sets her appart from her allies, and she is very hard-working and willing to do her best always. She is very curious, however, and at times this has put her or her friends at risk. She is no fool, however, and always does her best not to endanger others because of her.
Roselia may not be the toughest fighter around, but she has special skills that makes her very useful. Her power over plants and lots of kinds of poisons makes her an often underestimated, though impressive opponent.

Already Dead
-Spiritomb simply cannot be killed, since she's already dead. She will only faint no matter what kind of attack defeats her.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-3; to Cynthia. Spiritomb was one of the first pokemons Cynthia caught, and despite it being a ghost and being feared by most, she has shown great care and love even for her. As such, she has come to consider the Pokemon champion as her truest and closest friend if not family.)
-Loner (-2; unlike most of her Pokemons, Cynthia's Spiritomb is a bit of a loner, set apart from her other pokemons because she is already dead. She isn't as much friendly to other people as the rest of Cynthia's pokemons and generally prefers to be left alone, except of course for Cynthia, and to a lesser extent, her other pokemons.)
-Mild cruelty (-1; maybe as a side effect of being a restless spirit, Spiritomb enjoys scaring the heck out of people and often uses her ghost powers to do just that. Of course, she's well aware that Cynthia doesn't condone such acts, and will usually keep her haunting skills for bad guys.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Spiritomb was one of the first pokemons Cynthia caught, and although she used to be a rather violent and fearsome spirit, she gradually warmed up to her trainer when she understood that Cynthia only wanted her friendship, respected her and trusted her. In time, she became one of Cynthia's most trusted pokemons, learning to keep her powers for thosde who deserved it instead of people who had done nothing wrong.
Cynthia will call for Spiritomb when she needs some more subtle kind of firepower or when she only wants to give a good scare to someone. She also understands the great tactical advantage of having a pokemon with no particular weakness who ignores most physical attacks without any trouble...

Of course, it isn't impossible that Togekiss might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-4; to Cynthia. Not unlike Lucario, Togekiss was in Cynthia's possession even before he was born. He definitely sees her as his mother and is accordingly loyal to her.)
-Peace-lover (-2; Togekiss dislikes conflict and violence, and as such doesn't train in battle as much as his allies. He can fight, but he would rather talk, play and make friends than do battle... Because of this, Cynthia has it around mostly as a friend and a pet than a fighter, although Togekiss will fight to the best of its ability if Cynthia's life is in danger or if she asks him to.)
-Naive (-1; Togekiss is slightly naive. He is friendly and true, and he expects everyone to be so as well. He takes a -1 sit.mod when trying to discern the truth when lied to.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Electricity, Rock and Ice-type attacks.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Like Lucario, Togekiss has been one of Cynthia's pokemons for his entire life, although later so. On the other hand, Togekiss is much more friendly and trusting than Lucario and as such he likes Cynthia as much, if not more, as his fellow pokemon. Togekiss loves peace, making new friends and seeing new things. It is curious, friendly and playful, always willing to help and make people smile.
Although it is not interested in battle and violence, he is actually a very impressive fighter, like all of Cynthia's pokemons. He packs quite a punch especially in flight, and his Metronome technique can often turn the tables when he finds himself on the losing side. Togekiss is always trying to get along with everyone and enjoys his life as one of Cynthia's pokemons.

Hard to Kill
-Like all Pokemons, Palkia is incredibly resilient for a creature of its size. Most attacks that should have killed it will only make it faint, often giving Cynthia enough time to return it to its Pokeball to heal it when she can. Of course, it isn't impossible that Palkia might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-2; to Cynthia. Palkia respects its trainer greatly for stopping Team Galactic's leader, Cyrus, from using it and Dialga to destroy the world, and also for the girl's ideals and courage. Although he isn't as "fanatical" about her as some of her other Pokemons are, she is the one human it respects the most and will obey her commands with no questions asked.)
-Crouching lazy, hidden badass (-2; Palkia often fakes being lazy or unwilling to do anything for the sheer fun of it, while it is actually very hard-working and devastatingly powerful when it wants to be.)
-Compulsion to stick up for underdog (-3; as the Protector of Dimensions and one of the most powerful Pokemons, Palkia can't stand evil and people who would destroy the natural order of things.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Dragon-based attacks)
EQUIPMENT
-Lustrous Orb (a legendary orb kept within Palkia's own body; Cynthia once used it to summon Palkia to the Spear Pillar and then returned it to Palkia after she caught it. It cannot be destroyed or taken away from it, and it grants +2 from GP to both Mastery of Space and Mastery of Water.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Palkia is one of the two beings rumored to be responsible for creating the world eons ago. This ancient Pokemon is merely a legend in the minds of most, and Cynthia's habit of defeating most trainers using only her trusty Garchomp has left most people unaware that she actually has Palkia as one of her Pokemon (and Palkia itself doesn't mind much, since it prefers not to fight unless it is necessary).
A rather peaceful but unbelievably powerful Pokemon, the Spatial Pokemon would rather avoid conflict than seek it, and it loves its trainer because she understands this. Although she is an adventuress and a Pokemon League champion (two occupations often leading to battles or at least, trouble) she uses her other Pokemons before asking Palkia to take matters into its dragon hands, which is perfect with it. It is curious about the world and other Pokemons and enjoys being with its new trainer, however, so it doesn't mind much being carried around from place to place and having to fight once in a while or use its considerable powers for the greater good.
Although it often tries to avoid conflict and often appears very serious, Palkia actually has both a strange sense of humor and a divine hatred for evildoers. It sees peace as an ideal to strive for, but isn't foolish and knows that sometimes, some individuals will threaten it and will require someone to stop them. Palkia is confident that that someone will be Cynthia when the time comes, and that it will be there with her if the need arise.

-Refusal to take a life (-1; Cynthia is a Pokemon trainer and an adventuress, not a murderer. She'd never willingly kill anyone or allow someone to kill someone else if she has anything to say about it.)
-Honorable (-2; Cynthia never cheats or lie, always keep her word if she can and always gives her best. She lives by her own rules, but will respect those of others unless they severely clash with hers.)
-Duty (-3; to her Pokemons. More than mere friends, Cynthia's Pokemons are, from her viewpoint, part of herself. They are family, trusted allies, and just like they take care of her and protect her, she looks out for them and takes very good care of them.)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STORY: Cynthia was one among many young Pokemon trainers, eager to go on an adventure and explore the world, to learn its secrets and seek the truth behind the legends of ancient times she had read about in the books. However, the blonde girl was somewhat different from most trainers. Gifted with an incredible intellect and great natural potential as a trainer, she had a natural affinity with Pokemons and no small amount of talent for tactics and battles. Mature for her age, she had already understood the importance of the bond between the Pokemon and their trainer, and she considered her Pokemon as her friends... in fact, even more than mere friends, they were her family.
The girl travelled Sinnoh for months, finding new Pokemons, meeting new people and battling other trainers as she visited new towns. She visited ancient ruins and temples, searching for artefacts and legends of the past, as well as rare Pokemons. Soon, she had made quite a reputation for herself, and after having gathered enough Pokemon badges, she travelled to the Victory Road, managed to get on the other side and challenged the Elite Four and their champion, Lucian. Despite the power of the Elite Four, and the incredible skill of Lucian, Cynthia defeated them all, becoming one of the youngest champions of Sinnoh (as well as one of the few girls to become champion), ever. These epic battles made Cynthia's main pokemon, Garchomp, famous, because not even once was the Mach Pokemon defeated even during the battles against the Elite Four and Lucian, and despite fighting furiously during all five Pokemon matches.
As the new champion of the League, Cynthia travelled the world again, searching for secrets that were previously inaccessible, and helping two of Professor Rowan's pupils, Lucas and Dawn, to fight the group of criminals known as Team Galactic and becoming great trainers of their own.
Eventually, Cynthia teamed up with Dawn to attempt to capture two legendary Pokemon, Dialga and Palkia. Together, the two managed to defeat the great dragons (in fact, Cynthia only used a single Pokemon to defeat Palkia: Garchomp, of course!), and they decided to keep one each.
Later, both Lucas and Dawn went through the Victory Road to battle the Elite Four and challenge Cynthia. Although Lucas didn't make it past Lucian (now the last of the Elite Four), Dawn managed to fight her way to Cynthia and fight her in one of the greatest Pokemon League battles ever seen, but in the end, she couldn't defeat the Champion. Cynthia encouraged her to not give up and train even harder so that she could become the next champion, and Dawn thanked her for both the battle and her kind words, swearing that "next time will be different."

-Duty (-4; to Cynthia. Garchomp is incredibly loyal to Cynthia and isn't afraid one bit to fight to the death for her. She cares for her trainer more than for anything or anyone else, and she knows that the girl feels the same about her.)
-Temper (-2; Garchomp is tough, powerful and fearsome... and she has the temper to go with her skills. While she wouldn't mind much if Cynthia did something that bothered her a bit, the same cannot be told about other people, and she will express her disapproval very clearly to anyone who behaves wrongly in her eyes... Especially if "behaving wrongly" includes "mistreating Cynthia".)
-Compulsion to stick up for underdog (-3; Garchomp, like her owner, can't stand people or creatures abusing their power for no good reason. She will gladly defend those who can't defend themselves.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 3x damage from Ice-based attacks and 2x damage from Dragon-based attacks)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Garchomp is Cynthia's most trusted friend and Pokemon; the two were together for most of their lives. Most people aren't aware of this fact, but the "Pokemon Starter" Professor Rowan gave to the young blonde girl when she first became a Trainer was actually a small female Gible, who would later evolve into the fearsome dragon it is now.
Garchomp is Cynthia's main Pokemon in most situations; when she wants to travel far, she rides her; when she needs to defend herself, she calls her; when people ask her about her favorite Pokemon, she talks about her. Some of her other Pokemons may be better suited for some tasks, but Garchomp is her favorite for most. It was Garchomp who single-handedly ensured that Cynthia became Sinnoh's Pokemon League's champion, defeating the League and their former champion, Lucian, all by herself.

Of course, it isn't impossible that Lucario might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-4; to Cynthia. Lucario is pretty much as loyal to Cynthia as Garchomp herself is, because it was still in its egg when it came into her possession, and he sees her at the very least as a big sister and the one person who has always taken care of him. Lucario has self-styled himself her personal bodyguard [despite Garchomp obviously thinking of herself as such] and trains really hard every day to be strong enough to protect her if the need arise.)
-Extreme vanity (-2; Lucario considers himself as THE greatest martial artist, anywhere and ever. He won't back down from a challenge unless Cynthia specifically orders him to do so, and does not agree with anyone thinking otherwise.)
-Overconfident (-1; Lucario is so proud of his own abilities and fighting skills that he often fails to see when the odds are against him, sometimes leading it to defeat. Luckily for him, Cynthia isn't as blind as him and often makes up for his mistakes.)
-Showoff (-1; Lucario considers himself as awesome and acts as such.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Fire, Fighting and Ground-type attacks.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: While she has had Garchomp with her for a longer time, Cynthia was Lucario's trainer for its entire life. Cynthia was given a Pokemon egg by a trainer she met during her travels, and she kept it with her until it hatched, and she has kept the pokemon inside it, Riolu (who later evolved into Lucario) ever since to her side.
Lucario is a loud-mouthed showoff who isn't afraid to challenge most anything that dares to claim he isn't the best martial artist ever, and for all his boasting, he is actually pretty darn good. He is very protective of Cynthia and shows distrustful of most people out of caution. Despite his sometimes bothersome personality and his great pride and arrogance, he has a good heart and he and Cynthia share a very close bond.

Of course, it isn't impossible that Roserade might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-3; to Cynthia. Roserade was the first pokemon caught by Cynthia and has been with her ever since, and thinks of her as a friend and fellow adventurer!)
-Curious (-2; Roserade is a true explorer, leaving almost no mustery unsolved or stone unturned if she can help it... sometimes to the point of pushing it way too far. Of course, she tries not to do anything that would put her, or especially Cynthia in trouble, but at times, her curiosity gets the better of her.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Fire, Ice, Flying and Psychic-type attacks.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Roserade was the first pokemon Cynthia ever caught, and has been around ever since. While she is far from the best fighter of Cynthia's team, she has her own strengths and skills that sets her appart from her allies, and she is very hard-working and willing to do her best always. She is very curious, however, and at times this has put her or her friends at risk. She is no fool, however, and always does her best not to endanger others because of her.
Roselia may not be the toughest fighter around, but she has special skills that makes her very useful. Her power over plants and lots of kinds of poisons makes her an often underestimated, though impressive opponent.

Already Dead
-Spiritomb simply cannot be killed, since she's already dead. She will only faint no matter what kind of attack defeats her.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-3; to Cynthia. Spiritomb was one of the first pokemons Cynthia caught, and despite it being a ghost and being feared by most, she has shown great care and love even for her. As such, she has come to consider the Pokemon champion as her truest and closest friend if not family.)
-Loner (-2; unlike most of her Pokemons, Cynthia's Spiritomb is a bit of a loner, set apart from her other pokemons because she is already dead. She isn't as much friendly to other people as the rest of Cynthia's pokemons and generally prefers to be left alone, except of course for Cynthia, and to a lesser extent, her other pokemons.)
-Mild cruelty (-1; maybe as a side effect of being a restless spirit, Spiritomb enjoys scaring the heck out of people and often uses her ghost powers to do just that. Of course, she's well aware that Cynthia doesn't condone such acts, and will usually keep her haunting skills for bad guys.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Spiritomb was one of the first pokemons Cynthia caught, and although she used to be a rather violent and fearsome spirit, she gradually warmed up to her trainer when she understood that Cynthia only wanted her friendship, respected her and trusted her. In time, she became one of Cynthia's most trusted pokemons, learning to keep her powers for thosde who deserved it instead of people who had done nothing wrong.
Cynthia will call for Spiritomb when she needs some more subtle kind of firepower or when she only wants to give a good scare to someone. She also understands the great tactical advantage of having a pokemon with no particular weakness who ignores most physical attacks without any trouble...

-Duty (-4; to Cynthia. Not unlike Lucario, Togekiss was in Cynthia's possession even before he was born. He definitely sees her as his mother and is accordingly loyal to her.)
-Peace-lover (-2; Togekiss dislikes conflict and violence, and as such doesn't train in battle as much as his allies. He can fight, but he would rather talk, play and make friends than do battle... Because of this, Cynthia has it around mostly as a friend and a pet than a fighter, although Togekiss will fight to the best of its ability if Cynthia's life is in danger or if she asks him to.)
-Naive (-1; Togekiss is slightly naive. He is friendly and true, and he expects everyone to be so as well. He takes a -1 sit.mod when trying to discern the truth when lied to.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Electricity, Rock and Ice-type attacks.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Like Lucario, Togekiss has been one of Cynthia's pokemons for his entire life, although later so. On the other hand, Togekiss is much more friendly and trusting than Lucario and as such he likes Cynthia as much, if not more, as his fellow pokemon. Togekiss loves peace, making new friends and seeing new things. It is curious, friendly and playful, always willing to help and make people smile.
Although it is not interested in battle and violence, he is actually a very impressive fighter, like all of Cynthia's pokemons. He packs quite a punch especially in flight, and his Metronome technique can often turn the tables when he finds himself on the losing side. Togekiss is always trying to get along with everyone and enjoys his life as one of Cynthia's pokemons.

-Immune to effects

-Gravity/Space Blast (Element may vary, because Palkia may create matter and energy at will. Typically, Palkia will create a Gravity/Space anomaly causing 3x Damage and Armor Penetration, which it may make Area effect for 1 additional stone per Area stage on the D&R chart... but Palkia may also create much less deadly effects.)

Hard to Kill
-Like all Pokemons, Palkia is incredibly resilient for a creature of its size. Most attacks that should have killed it will only make it faint, often giving Cynthia enough time to return it to its Pokeball to heal it when she can. Of course, it isn't impossible that Palkia might still die because of a complication.
CHALLENGES
-Duty (-2; to Cynthia. Palkia respects its trainer greatly for stopping Team Galactic's leader, Cyrus, from using it and Dialga to destroy the world, and also for the girl's ideals and courage. Although he isn't as "fanatical" about her as some of her other Pokemons are, she is the one human it respects the most and will obey her commands with no questions asked.)
-Crouching lazy, hidden badass (-2; Palkia often fakes being lazy or unwilling to do anything for the sheer fun of it, while it is actually very hard-working and devastatingly powerful when it wants to be.)
-Compulsion to stick up for underdog (-3; as the Protector of Dimensions and one of the most powerful Pokemons, Palkia can't stand evil and people who would destroy the natural order of things.)
-Special Vulnerabilities (-5; takes 2x damage from Dragon-based attacks)
EQUIPMENT
-Lustrous Orb (a legendary orb kept within Palkia's own body; Cynthia once used it to summon Palkia to the Spear Pillar and then returned it to Palkia after she caught it. It cannot be destroyed or taken away from it, and it grants +2 from GP to both Mastery of Space and Mastery of Water.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES: Palkia is one of the two beings rumored to be responsible for creating the world eons ago. This ancient Pokemon is merely a legend in the minds of most, and Cynthia's habit of defeating most trainers using only her trusty Garchomp has left most people unaware that she actually has Palkia as one of her Pokemon (and Palkia itself doesn't mind much, since it prefers not to fight unless it is necessary).
A rather peaceful but unbelievably powerful Pokemon, the Spatial Pokemon would rather avoid conflict than seek it, and it loves its trainer because she understands this. Although she is an adventuress and a Pokemon League champion (two occupations often leading to battles or at least, trouble) she uses her other Pokemons before asking Palkia to take matters into its dragon hands, which is perfect with it. It is curious about the world and other Pokemons and enjoys being with its new trainer, however, so it doesn't mind much being carried around from place to place and having to fight once in a while or use its considerable powers for the greater good.
Although it often tries to avoid conflict and often appears very serious, Palkia actually has both a strange sense of humor and a divine hatred for evildoers. It sees peace as an ideal to strive for, but isn't foolish and knows that sometimes, some individuals will threaten it and will require someone to stop them. Palkia is confident that that someone will be Cynthia when the time comes, and that it will be there with her if the need arise.
