• Connor • Personality: Connor is loud and overconfident, and apparently doesn’t know the meaning of “Think before you speak.” Surprisingly, his one and only dream is to be a Dark Pokémon (though he has no idea what they’re really up to, he’s convinced himself that he’s evil), and he practically worships them. He is constantly showing off in the hopes a Dark Pokémon will take him to join their ranks. No one knows why. Though I wouldn’t can him obscured, since he doesn’t actually know what’s going on with Dark Pokémon. Backstory: No one knows where Connor came from, only that he showed up in Brightkeep one day, sobbing and saying he was lost. Connor doesn’t seem to remember that happening, and grows scared if asked about his past, since he really didn’t know what happened to him. One day, he saw a Dark Pokémon wandering down the streets. Everyone seemed scared or angry at him, and he didn’t know why. So he offered the stranger a half eaten Pecha berry hoping to make him feel better. The stranger didn’t say anything, just smiled (Connor didn’t seem to notice how forced it was), and handed him something in return. A short rope, which the stranger seemingly had no use for. But Connor took it gratefully and decided that the stranger was very nice, yet misunderstood. So he tied the rope around his waist and declared that he was a Dark Pokémon. Everyone thought it was a joke, and most still do, but Connor takes his role very seriously, and leaves Pecha berries in the forest each day, hoping a Dark Pokémon might pick up his gift and discover someone who cared for their rights. His pile grows larger every day.... Moveset: Headbutt Low kick Bite Sand Attack Ability: Hyper Cutter Nature: Adamant (-Sp. Attack, +Attack | -Dry, +Spicy)
• Helene • Personality: Helene is cold and quiet, and regards any non-key Light Pokémon as just obstacles in her path. She will not hesitate to use violence to get the job done, which makes her a formidable opponent. She believes that she alone will be able to free the Dark Lord, and acts as though the other Dark Pokémon are beneath her. She hopes one day, when the Dark Lord returns, her work will pay off. Backstory: Even as a child, Helene knew her one goal was to be the Dark Lord’s most trusted advisor, and since then, she has been working towards that goal without stopping. She hopes that the Dark Lord will see her hard work, and reward her with his pride. Moveset: Life Dew Dazzling Gleam Psycho Cut Psybeam Ability: Anticipation Nature: Quiet (-Speed, +Sp.
