Contest Ribbons: (Feburary 2018 Cute Contest Participant) (May 2020 Contest Participant) Met at: New Bark Town (level 5); October 2nd, 2017
To Primarina, every battle is a stage. It takes down its prey with beautiful singing and dancing.
Honky Tonk was given to Kazuki as his starter in New Bark Town. He is a gregarious and friendly Pokemon that enjoys a crowd's attention and creating a spectacle, rather like his owner. He's learning basic acrobatic acts using the water balloons he blows out of his nose. Sometimes, he likes to musically honk in time to Kazuki's trumpet.
Evolved into Brionne on November 3rd, 2017
As a Brionne, Honky Tonk has taken to singing and dancing, which Kazuki encourages every step of the way. They often perform together, along with Kazuki's other musically inclined Pokemon. They share an incredibly close Trainer (Breeder) to Pokemon bond.
Honky Tonk's new, distinctly cute appearance, even though he's a male, hasn't even occurred to Kazuki. Guys are allowed to be super cute too, you know!
Evolved into Primarina on Feburary 28th, 2018
Now a Primarina, Honky Tonk has totally come into his own. The world is his oyster, and also his stage! He rarely comes out of "character," and every chance meeting, battle, and moment is a chance to perform. He sings diligently every day to improve his skill, and takes meticulous care of his throat.
He's also grown to be inseparable from Kazuki. He rarely travels by Pokeball and is always by his trainers side. The two are an amazing duo, and have learned how to work off of each other almost flawlessly, as though they can read each others thoughts.
Furret has a very slim build. When under attack, it can slickly squirm through narrow spaces and get away. In spite of its short limbs, this Pokémon is very nimble and fleet.
Maestra was the first Pokemon that Kazuki actually caught, mostly because all the NPCs in Cherrygrove wouldn't stop telling him how important it was to catch Pokemon! He went a little ways back onto Route 29, and looked for Pokemon. Maestra was one of the first he spotted, due to Sentret's habit of standing up on it's tail. The battle went quickly, and soon he had his very own catch in a Pokeball and everything.
Maestra was nervous at first, but soon softened up thanks to Honky Tonk and Kazuki's kind dispositions. Kazuki named her Maestra because the way she stood up on her tail reminded him of a conductor at attention, standing above the orchestra with baton in hand.
Evolved into Furret on November 4th, 2017
Maestra has grown into a loving and attentive Pokemon. She loves to go on runs with Kazuki, and curls her big, fluffy body around him while he sleeps. She treats newcomers into his team with motherly care.
It signals its emotions with its melodies. Scientists are studying these melodic patterns.
Kazuki made his way from Cherrygrove city to Violet City via Route 30 and 31. It was a long trek, and night time began to fall as the city came into sight. Kazuki heard the sound of a xylophone coming from some trees just off the path. It was there that he met a group of Kricketot who were all jangling their antennae together to the time of some unknown music.
Kricketot aren't inclined to battle (just look at their low-level moveset) and they let him watch from a distance. When they finished their performance, he applauded them. Touched by his praise, one of the Kricketot came out to greet him. It allowed him to catch it without any fuss.
Evolved into Kricketune on November 4th, 2017
With his evolution, Xylo has become an even more skilled musician, adding more and more sounds and melodies to it's repertoire every day. Kazuki is fascinated by his ability to compose on the spot, and they're always collaborating together. His favorite instrument to mimic is the cello.
Kazuki has moved to Azalea Town to buy some property for his Pokemon Rehab Project. The place isn't ready yet, but he plans to have everything ready sometime in spring 2021.
Money's a little tight at the moment, but he hopes things will turn around when the Silver Horn is completed.

Contest Ribbons: (Feburary 2019 Clever Contest Winner) Met at: Egg Received November 1st, 2017
It can distinguish the faintest of scents. It puts its sensitive sense of smell to use by helping pastry chefs in their work.
Sticky is a fun-loving, if slightly mischievous Pokemon. He has a habit of licking Kazuki on the cheeks with his slobbery tongue, and ruining his clothes by cuddling too close with his (namesake) super-sticky fur. Kazuki kept sweets on himself just for his own consumption at first, but now half of his snack store goes to Sticky, as he refuses to eat normal PokeChow. He's a terrible battler, and gets out of confrontation by feigning distress, and occasionally, playing possum.
Evolved into Slurpuff on April 14th, 2018
Now that he's a Slurpuff, Sticky has taken up a sudden interest in cooking, namely baking. Mostly because whatever he tries to cook ends up way too sweet anyways. Kazuki doesn't know a thing about baking, so he often follows Sticky's lead. There's about a 50/50 chance that any recipe they try turns into a flaming disaster. But they're learning together!
He's been using his budding culinary talents to help Jean out together a menu of bakery treats for his new coffee truck venture.
Met at: National Park (level 15); November 2nd, 2017
It rolls up pollen into puffs. It makes many different varieties, some used as food and others used in battle.
Kazuki took part in the bug-hunting contest at the National Park and was immediately frightened out of his pants by the giant Scyther and Pinsir that were let loose. Soon, the other trainers were all catching the larger Pokemon for the best scores, and he was pushed away from the main event.
That was when Puff decided to make nest in his hair, attracted by the color, as well as Kazuki's flowery aura. So he managed to catch one Pokemon at least. Of course, he didn't win the contest, since Puff fits in his palm. But if it was a cuteness contest, he would have stolen first place!
Evolved into Ribombee on September 1st, 2018
After nearly a year of being in Kazuki's team, Puff finally evolved! She now tends to all the flowers in the garden behind their home, as both pollinator and caretaker. Kazuki is glad she's found her place, as she was never much of a performer or a fighter. But her calming presence is a boon to them all-- when they're not on stage.
Its cries echo inside its hollow body to emerge as beautiful notes for startling and repelling foes.
Kazuki found Tin Tin while visiting the Bell Tower. The sacred spot was nearly silent... Except for the constant jingling and ringing of a certain Chingling. The monks living around the tower were more than happy to be rid of Tin Tin, who had been ruining their meditation for weeks, and encouraged Kazuki to capture him.
Tin Tin is all ringing, all the time, 24/7. It never ends! Kazuki tries his hardest to guide Tin-Tin into playing tunes instead of randomly jingling, but it is very hard to contain his manic energy. They're working on it.
Evolved into Chimecho on December 25th, 2017
The applause and cheers after their last Christmas night performance in Goldenrod made Tin Tin so incredibly happy that he evolved into a Chimecho! He still loves to ring, all day every day, but the sound of a wind chime is far easier on the ears than a jingle bell, so he's less of a nuisance in general. He's also calmed down a bit, so he can stop when Kazuki asks him to.
Now that he can produce a full range of sounds, they're working on his melodic skills, and his clarion notes gel nicely with Honk Tonk's sweet voice.
Exploud communicates its feelings to others by emitting whistle-like sounds from the tubes of its body. This Pokémon only raises its voice when it is in battle.
Kazuki was pretty lucky to get a soundproof Whismur, or else it probably would have hated him! He still doesn't like too much commotion though, so Kazuki tries to accommodate him by being quiet while he's out of his ball. He's timid, so he needs a lot of gentle encouragement.
However, he's a great battler, because he has a tendency to unleash his attacks against anything that makes too much noise, which includes confrontational Pokemon. Because of this, Kazuki is trying to nurture him as a fighter. His success at this is mixed, but he's trying.
Evolved into Loudred on Feburary 20th, 2017
Boomer's personality changed drastically when he evolved. He lost all traces of timidness and gained bold toughness in its stead. Now, instead of hating noise, he likes to join in on any racket the team might be making and... Tends to drown them all out in the process.
Kazuki still encourages his love of battle, and that's where he really lets loose and makes noise like only a Loudred can. He really does deafen himself, just like the Dex says. Kazuki's had to invest in some really good earplugs so he doesn't go deaf too.
Evolved into Loudred on September 1st, 2018
Boomer has grown into Kazuki's most reliable fighter now that he's fully evolved. And he's learned a little bit of restraint in the process! Instead of only using his mouth to communicate, he's begun to use the various other amps and whistles on his body to talk as well. Now Kazuki only needs the earplugs when he's battling.
Kazuki always takes Boomer with him when traveling new or particularly dangerous areas, but he also enjoys guarding the house when Kazuki is away on his daily errands. All the other Pokemon in the team count on him to keep them all safe. It's a confidence that Boomer accepts with pride.
At the time of its birth, Vulpix has one white tail. The tail separates into six if this Pokémon receives plenty of love from its Trainer. The six tails become magnificently curled.
Kahoko was a wonderful Christmas present. Kazuki had admired other people's Vulpixes from afar and had secretly wanted one for himself for awhile. When his hatched, he named her Kahoko after his real-world crush,and it soon became apparent that their personalities were similar as well! Kahoko is a kind and cheerful Pokemon that works earnestly. Kazuki spoils her a lot, and keeps her more like a pet than a Pokemon, but she's still a good fighter when she has to take action.
It stores electric energy under very high pressure. It often explodes with little or no provocation.
Amp was given to Kazuki as an egg from Jean, because he wants everyone in the world to have a Voltorb, I guess. Amp is extremely helpful to the team because, like its parents, it actually likes to fight, although Kazuki discourages him from self destructing. It and Maestra are also very good friends, because she loves to chase it around as it rolls at high speeds.
Kazuki is trying to figure out a way to connect Amp up to some kind of sound system as a power supply, so his troupe can hold even larger performances! Since its soundproof, there's no danger to its hearing, at least!
Evolved into Electrode on March 31st, 2018
As one of few Pokemon on Kazuki's team that actually enjoys battling, Amp evolved fairly quickly. In fact, it takes after its "father", and has a bad habits of rolling off after wild Pokemon in hopes of picking a fight. It can still be reined in though, and isn't aggressive at all with his own team. It and Maestra still have regular games of chase.
Kazuki has taken it to electronic stores, and they've figured out a way to funnel its latent electricity into a portable amp using, well, electrodes. They stick them onto its body and feed them in using a standard plug. It helps to spend its excess power so it doesn't randomly explode.
Now they just have to work on its professionalism. If it gets too excited during a song, the amp tends to short out.
Met at: Lavender Town (level 18); February 3rd, 2018
It charms its opponents with its refined dancing. When they let their guard down, it places a curse on them that will bring on their demise.
Lavender Town is known for it's famous Pokemon graveyards, but there are graveyards for humans too. While visiting a Pokemon orphanage, Kazuki learned of a dancing ghost that had been haunting the local cemetery as of late, disorienting and fending off other mourners. The manager there suspected that it was a Pokemon who's trainer had died, and asked if Kazuki could look into it for them.
With his Normal-type Maestra to guard him, Kazuki went to check it out. Her Foresight allowed him to see that the problem was an Oricorio, perched upon a grave decorated with beautiful, fresh purple flowers. It put up a fight when it was discovered, but Kazuki was able to capture it. He named it Azuma, after a friend back home.
He's still standoffish, but Kazuki is slowly working to rehabilitate him.
Altaria dances and wheels through the sky among billowing, cotton-like clouds. By singing melodies in its crystal-clear voice, this Pokémon makes its listeners experience dreamy wonderment.
Kazuki just can't help himself when it comes to cute, singing Pokemon. He needed very little charming to take an egg from Newt.
Aria displays most of the normal behaviors Swablu have. She likes to sit on Kazuki's head as they travel, and compulsively cleans all of his supplies. Kazuki doesn't mind at all-- his trumpet's never been shinier! They'll hum simple songs and lullabies together in the round. She can also make a sound very similar to a harmonica.
Evolved into Altaria on July 1st, 2018 (Fed 10 Rare Candies)
Now that Aria has evolved into a fully-fledged Altaria, she has unwittingly struck up a sort of rivalry with Honky Tonk. While she has little competitive spirit, Honky Tonk is overly proud of his own ability to sing, and feels that there's only room for one diva in this team of Pokemon. He often butts in when Kazuki is trying to work with Aria one-on-one.
Kazuki now has to coddle Honky Tonk's ego more than ever before. Meanwhile, Aria barely realizes that there's a problem. She still likes to cuddle Kazuki with her fluffy wings and obsessively polish all of his things.
Shimizu the Lapras ♂ OT: Kazuki Hihara Level: 70 Type: Water / Ice Egg group: Monster / Water 1 Ability: Water Absorb Nature: Quiet Moveset:
Sing; Growl; Water Gun; Mist; Ice Shard; Confuse Ray; Water Pulse; Perish Song; Brine; Safeguard; Body Slam; Ice Beam; Surf; Rain Dance; Hydro Pump; Sheer Cold;
Met at: Route 15 (level 5); November 4th, 2018
Its high intelligence enables it to comprehend human speech. When it's in a good mood, it sings in its beautiful voice.
Kazuki found Shimizu as a baby, washed up on the shores near Fuchsia City, with no other Lapras nearby. After camping out for a day nearby, he found that his feared assumption proved to be true-- that this little one had been separated from his pod somehow.
He knew that Lapras were gentle and easily frightened, so he contacted a friend with expertise on the species for help on what to do. After some very slow and cautious attempts at befriending the creature, Kazuki was able to come close enough to catch him with a minimal amount of trauma. He brought him to the shores near his home on Route 12 so he would be able to care for him and keep an eye on him without having to sever him from his wild roots.
Kazuki isn't quite sure what to do with him yet, but he knows that the right path to take will make itself clear with time.

The ultrasonic waves it emits from its ears can reduce a large boulder to pebbles. It swoops out of the dark to attack.
After Chise disappeared from the Pokemon world, Luna turned up at Kazuki's doorstep. The little bat had been around before to deliver mail and packages, so he recognized her instantly. She brought sad tidings-- Kazuki immediately checked his Gear and saw that Chise's contacts had vanished-- but he was glad to give her a new home.
She likes to hang out with Kazuki's other fighters, Amp and Mewzers, since they're the ones that protect the house. It also gives her the opportunity to get away from the noise the other Pokemon make every now and then. It's tough having such big, sensitive ears when you live with a musician!
Evolved into Noivern on March 1st, 2019
Now evolved, Luna has become Kazuki's strongest fighter. She is totally silent and deadly accurate. Although he is not the best at supporting a fighting spirit, Kazuki lets her be who she is, and keeps her free most of the time so she can hunt and protect her territory as she sees fit. Whenever he has to travel far or go somewhere that might be dangerous, he takes her with him.
Despite her hunter's skill, she still has calm disposition, and can easily be befriended with a simple offer of her favorite fruit. She doesn't forget those who are kind to her, and those who are not.
Met at: Received (level 15) on December 24th, 2018
It keeps rhythm by flicking its tail feathers like a metronome. It imitates human speech.
Clef was a Christmas present from Armin, and Kazuki was absolutely thrilled with it. He'd always wanted a Chatot, after his first Poke-Prom where there was an aviary full of them, but he spends his time in Kanto, and they don't really hang around in the area.
She's an absolute sweetheart. Of course a Flying type that literally has a music note for a head would thrive in a musician's care! She gets along great with all of his other Pokemon, even Tonks, who tends to be jealous of Kazuki's attention. He works with her individually to nurture her musical abilities, and someday hopes to have her be his permanent accompanist.
Pele the Cinderace ♂ OT: Kazuki Hihara Level: 50 Type: Fire Egg group: Field/Human-Like Ability: Blaze Nature: Hardy Moveset: Tackle; Growl; Ember; Quick Attack; Double Kick; Flame Charge; Agility; Pyro Ball; Headbutt; Counter; Bounce; Met at: Pallet Town (Level 5); March 20th, 2019
It juggles a pebble with its feet, turning it into a burning soccer ball. Its shots strike opponents hard and leave them scorched.
Kazuki met Pele not long after the plane crash, when he started to volunteer with the Aether Foundation to help take care of all the orphaned Pokemon. He formed a particular bond with one of the little fire type rabbits who loved to kick a soccer ball around. The Pokemon eventually decided to come home with him, and live with his other Pokemon. After a long time simply living at Kazuki's house, Pele gained the courage to stay in a Pokeball, and even partake in battles.
His name is obviously inspired by his fondness of soccer, and he likes to go on jogs with Kazuki in the morning.
Although it's said to bring disaster, in actuality, this Pokémon possesses a calm disposition and warns people of any crises that loom.
After nearly two years in the Pokemon world as a "Breeder," Kazuki finally had his first clutch of eggs. At first they were a total mystery, as he didn't know who his Furret, Maestra, had ended up finding to breed with... But when he was surprised with an Absol among the Sentrets that had hatched, he realized that Maestra had had a fling with Annie's Absol, Lute. While the Sentrets were given away, Kazuki decided to keep the Absol.
He has a very put-upon attitude of cool resignation, which helped to inspire his name, along with the moon-shape of his horn. He's a bit of an oddball in Kazuki's group, since he's not terribly energetic or outgoing, and his only music-related attack is one you definitely don't want to hear, he's not unhappy with his lot in life. He'd just rather do this own thing. You know.
A manmade Pokémon that came about as a result of research. It is programmed with only basic motions.
Chip was in the shiny Pokemon egg Kazuki received for helping the Legendary Seekers after sighting both Lugia and Articuno during the Prom Cruise in April. Kazuki wasn't entirely sure what he was going to get, and he's still not entirely sure what to make of this Porygon.
Its movements are weird and jerky, and it has a tendency to "glitch out" for moments where its body takes on a static-y look and it makes an awful 90's era dial-up noise. Kazuki thinks it might be because its shiny. He's is hoping to find some kind of computer expert to see if it can be fixed.
Emma the Oshawott ♀ OT: Ash Fox Level: 30 Type: Water Egg group: Field Ability: Torrent Nature: Docile Moveset:
Tackle; Tail Whip; Water Gun; Water Sport; Focus Energy; Razor Shell; Fury Cutter; Water Pulse; Revenge; Aqua Jet;
Holding: Everstone Met at: Received (level 30) on August 18th, 2019
The scalchop on its stomach isn't just used for battle--it can be used to break open hard berries as well.
Kazuki inherited this Oshawott from Jean Kirschtein after he left the Pokemon world. Jean was a trainer, and Kazuki was worried at first that the orphan wouldn't settle in well with his more laid-back group. But Emma proved to be a very sweet-natured Pokemon that wasn't particularly interested in battle, and she soon found a place in his troupe. Honky Tonk is particularly fond of her, and treats her a with a big brotherly... sisterly... Well, he's taken her under his flipper, so to speak. He enjoys teaching her songs and dances, and dresses her up in contest fashion.
No plans to evolve her as of now. She seems to enjoy her basic form, so she'll stay that way.
The tail's tip shines brightly and can be seen from far away. It acts as a beacon for lost people.
Cotton came to Kazuki of his own accord after Yayoi Kise left the Pokemon world, bearing a letter to explain his appearance. While Kazuki was rather broken up about losing such a close friend, he opened up his home to Cotton with as much warmth as he could manage.
The Ampharos took some time getting used to his new surroundings. Yayoi was a trainer that regularly challenged Gyms, so Kazuki's hands-off approach to raising Pokemon was definitely an adujustment. With a lot of new-found personal freedom, Cotton spent a lot of time away from the small sanctuary of Kazuki's property. But he always came back eventually, so Kazuki gave him his liberty.
Since he lives near the bridges and docks of Route 12, there are plenty of fishing boats and other vessels off the nearby coast. Cotton has found his own calling in working as a guiding light on foggy days and moonless nights. His work is well-appreciated by the locals.
Holding: Everstone Met at: Egg Received; December 25th, 2019
This gluttonous Pokémon only assists people with their work because it wants treats. As it runs, it crackles with electricity.
Wiggles came out of the special Galar egg that everyone received over the holidays. After he hatched, it didn't take long for Kazuki to come to the realization that he had just been given a mini-me to join his team. Wiggles is a highly energetic, super enthusiastic, sweets-loving ball of affection that wants everyone to be his friend and can charm nearly anyone into a smile. Kazuki this named him after his best trait: his wiggles.
Sarge the Silvally OT: Unknown Level: 1 Type: Dragon Egg group: Undiscovered Ability: RKS System Nature: Careful Moveset:
N/A
Met at: Pokemon received from the Adoption Program February 8th, 2020
Through the bond it formed with its Trainer, its will was strengthened, and it was able to destroy its control mask.
Sarge, originally called Sergeant, is Kazuki's latest rehabilitation project. He'd always been interested in Type: Null, but had never been able to adopt one due to certain restrictions. Once the new program, A Null for Every Home, and a Home for Every Null was launched, Kazuki happily took a previously owned Null to give it a forever home.
Sarge has a strong will, but thankfully its careful nature keeps it from throwing its weight around too much. It shows no sign of being mishandled in the past, but is generally low-spirited. Kazuki assumes being given up by its original owner left it brokenhearted. The only thing that really interests it is keeping watch over the smaller Pokemon in Kazuki's troupe, and a little more worryingly, herding them into small spaces.
It will take time to gain its trust... And break it of its bad habits.
Evolved into Silvally upon the opening of the Silver Horn, May 2021
Met at: Camping Curry Event (Level 5); March 20th, 2020
When it trusts a Trainer, it will treat them to berries it's decorated with cream. The cells that compose its cream fluctuated suddenly during evolution, giving the cream a mixed flavor.
Kazuki for the most part came to the Curry Festival to gorge himself on one of his favorite foods, but he also had a secondary motive: To catch a friend for his patisserie Slurpuff, Sticky. Sticky has always been an oddball in Kazuki's team for not being interested in music, or even battling, and he thought it would be good to get him a peer who would share in his passion. The two get along swimmingly, so that mission was a success.
Montblanc herself is a sweet, gentle Pokemon that wants nothing more than to make other people and Pokemon happy with the treats she helps Sticky create. She fits in well with Kazuki's laid-back crew.
Known as a bringer of blessings, it's been depicted on good-luck charms since ancient times. These Pokémon are never seen anywhere near conflict or turmoil. Recently, they've hardly been seen at all.
After getting word that Yuuko had left the Pokemon world, Kazuki went to see if he could help any of the Pokemon she had left behind. Out of all of them, it was obvious that Daruma needed the most help. The poor thing was rather depressed, which a Togekiss should never be, and Kazuki soon found out why-- He was not his second trainer, but his third. Yuuko had taken Daruma from Chise when she left, a long time ago.
The poor thing needed a lot of time and careful attention, but thankfully, Kazuki actually owned an old friend of his-- Luna, a Noivern that Kazuki has taken in back when Chise first disappeared. They spent a lot of time together. These days, it feel like Kazuki is running his own Pokemon orphanage, with all the strays he's taken in...
Hopefully, someday Daruma will go back to being a Pokemon to spread joy, like he was meant to.
Mac the Applin ♂ OT: Flayn Level: 26 Type: Grass/Dragon Egg group: Grass/Dragon Ability: Ripen Nature: Timid Moveset:
Withdraw; Astonish;
Met at: Received (Level 26) June, 2020
It spends its entire life inside an apple. It hides from its natural enemies, bird Pokémon, by pretending it's just an apple and nothing more.
From Flayn: "Mac is a shy wyrm boy who loves Flayn unconditionally. To him, she is his mother, for he was hatched in her care. He eats a lot, but especially sweets, and in him Flayn finds a kindred sweet tooth spirit. His favorite thing in the world is to take a nap after a large meal."
A Pokemon with this kind of disposition will have an easy time integrating into Kazuki's group. He's already beginning to show interest hanging out with Sticky and Montblanc. He's still shy, and probably will be after losing his human mama, but he has nothing but time to feel comfortable again.

Dragonite is capable of circling the globe in just 16 hours. It is a kindhearted Pokémon that leads lost and foundering ships in a storm to the safety of land.
Kauzki took Samwise in at Armin's request. He was a Pokemon that he inherited from a friend that had left the Pokemon world, and while Armin took excellent care of him, Samwise had a hard time fitting into Armin's group. Always ready to help a friend or a Pokemon in need, Kazuki agreed to give him some rehabilitation.
Samwise so far has done pretty well in Kazuki's laid-back group, and has enjoyed his time of rest and also his general freedom, since Kazuki rarely penned his Pokemon up in any way. Samwise become good friends with another rescue, Cotton, who works as a beacon at a nearby lighthouse, and they work together to keep the ships at sea safe.
Met at: Egg received from Santa, December 25th, 2020
Whenever a Blissey finds a weakened Pokémon, it will share its egg and offer its care until the other Pokémon is all better.
Kazuki received Happy's egg from Santa after he helped with the attack on the Christmas market in Goldenrod. He'd been wanting a Chansey for awhile, since they were Pokemon known for taking care of and healing others. One would make a great addition to the Silver Horn! It wasn't long after she hatched that she gained enough happiness to evolve into a Blissey.
She is the very example of her species, gentle, caring and sweet. She loves to share her eggs with anyone that needs cheering up. It's hard to tell, but she's shiny too!

To Primarina, every battle is a stage. It takes down its prey with beautiful singing and dancing.
Honky Tonk was given to Kazuki as his starter in New Bark Town. He is a gregarious and friendly Pokemon that enjoys a crowd's attention and creating a spectacle, rather like his owner. He's learning basic acrobatic acts using the water balloons he blows out of his nose. Sometimes, he likes to musically honk in time to Kazuki's trumpet.
Evolved into Brionne on November 3rd, 2017
As a Brionne, Honky Tonk has taken to singing and dancing, which Kazuki encourages every step of the way. They often perform together, along with Kazuki's other musically inclined Pokemon. They share an incredibly close Trainer (Breeder) to Pokemon bond.
Honky Tonk's new, distinctly cute appearance, even though he's a male, hasn't even occurred to Kazuki. Guys are allowed to be super cute too, you know!
Evolved into Primarina on Feburary 28th, 2018
Now a Primarina, Honky Tonk has totally come into his own. The world is his oyster, and also his stage! He rarely comes out of "character," and every chance meeting, battle, and moment is a chance to perform. He sings diligently every day to improve his skill, and takes meticulous care of his throat.
He's also grown to be inseparable from Kazuki. He rarely travels by Pokeball and is always by his trainers side. The two are an amazing duo, and have learned how to work off of each other almost flawlessly, as though they can read each others thoughts.

Furret has a very slim build. When under attack, it can slickly squirm through narrow spaces and get away. In spite of its short limbs, this Pokémon is very nimble and fleet.
Maestra was the first Pokemon that Kazuki actually caught, mostly because all the NPCs in Cherrygrove wouldn't stop telling him how important it was to catch Pokemon! He went a little ways back onto Route 29, and looked for Pokemon. Maestra was one of the first he spotted, due to Sentret's habit of standing up on it's tail. The battle went quickly, and soon he had his very own catch in a Pokeball and everything.
Maestra was nervous at first, but soon softened up thanks to Honky Tonk and Kazuki's kind dispositions. Kazuki named her Maestra because the way she stood up on her tail reminded him of a conductor at attention, standing above the orchestra with baton in hand.
Evolved into Furret on November 4th, 2017
Maestra has grown into a loving and attentive Pokemon. She loves to go on runs with Kazuki, and curls her big, fluffy body around him while he sleeps. She treats newcomers into his team with motherly care.
Xylo
Xylo the Kricketune ♂
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 90
Type: Bug
Egg group: Bug
Ability: Shed Skin
Nature: Bold
Moveset:
Met at: Route 31 (level 5); October 5th, 2017
It signals its emotions with its melodies. Scientists are studying these melodic patterns.
Kazuki made his way from Cherrygrove city to Violet City via Route 30 and 31. It was a long trek, and night time began to fall as the city came into sight. Kazuki heard the sound of a xylophone coming from some trees just off the path. It was there that he met a group of Kricketot who were all jangling their antennae together to the time of some unknown music.
Kricketot aren't inclined to battle (just look at their low-level moveset) and they let him watch from a distance. When they finished their performance, he applauded them. Touched by his praise, one of the Kricketot came out to greet him. It allowed him to catch it without any fuss.
Evolved into Kricketune on November 4th, 2017
With his evolution, Xylo has become an even more skilled musician, adding more and more sounds and melodies to it's repertoire every day. Kazuki is fascinated by his ability to compose on the spot, and they're always collaborating together. His favorite instrument to mimic is the cello.

Sticky
Sticky the Slurpuff ♂
OT: Newt Scamander
Level: 25
Type: Fairy
Egg group: Fairy
Ability: Sweet Veil
Nature: Impish
Moveset:
Contest Ribbons:
Met at: Egg Received November 1st, 2017
It can distinguish the faintest of scents. It puts its sensitive sense of smell to use by helping pastry chefs in their work.
Sticky is a fun-loving, if slightly mischievous Pokemon. He has a habit of licking Kazuki on the cheeks with his slobbery tongue, and ruining his clothes by cuddling too close with his (namesake) super-sticky fur. Kazuki kept sweets on himself just for his own consumption at first, but now half of his snack store goes to Sticky, as he refuses to eat normal PokeChow. He's a terrible battler, and gets out of confrontation by feigning distress, and occasionally, playing possum.
Evolved into Slurpuff on April 14th, 2018
Now that he's a Slurpuff, Sticky has taken up a sudden interest in cooking, namely baking. Mostly because whatever he tries to cook ends up way too sweet anyways. Kazuki doesn't know a thing about baking, so he often follows Sticky's lead. There's about a 50/50 chance that any recipe they try turns into a flaming disaster. But they're learning together!
He's been using his budding culinary talents to help Jean out together a menu of bakery treats for his new coffee truck venture.
Puff
Puff the Ribombee ♀
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 30
Type: Bug / Fairy
Egg group: Bug / Fairy
Ability: Honey Gather
Nature: Calm
Moveset:
Met at: National Park (level 15); November 2nd, 2017
It rolls up pollen into puffs. It makes many different varieties, some used as food and others used in battle.
Kazuki took part in the bug-hunting contest at the National Park and was immediately frightened out of his pants by the giant Scyther and Pinsir that were let loose. Soon, the other trainers were all catching the larger Pokemon for the best scores, and he was pushed away from the main event.
That was when Puff decided to make nest in his hair, attracted by the color, as well as Kazuki's flowery aura. So he managed to catch one Pokemon at least. Of course, he didn't win the contest, since Puff fits in his palm. But if it was a cuteness contest, he would have stolen first place!
Evolved into Ribombee on September 1st, 2018
After nearly a year of being in Kazuki's team, Puff finally evolved! She now tends to all the flowers in the garden behind their home, as both pollinator and caretaker. Kazuki is glad she's found her place, as she was never much of a performer or a fighter. But her calming presence is a boon to them all-- when they're not on stage.
Tin Tin
Tin Tin the Chimecho ♂
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 50
Type: Psychic
Egg group: Amorphous
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Quirky
Moveset:
Met at: Bell Tower (level 15); November 5th, 2017
Its cries echo inside its hollow body to emerge as beautiful notes for startling and repelling foes.
Kazuki found Tin Tin while visiting the Bell Tower. The sacred spot was nearly silent... Except for the constant jingling and ringing of a certain Chingling. The monks living around the tower were more than happy to be rid of Tin Tin, who had been ruining their meditation for weeks, and encouraged Kazuki to capture him.
Tin Tin is all ringing, all the time, 24/7. It never ends! Kazuki tries his hardest to guide Tin-Tin into playing tunes instead of randomly jingling, but it is very hard to contain his manic energy. They're working on it.
Evolved into Chimecho on December 25th, 2017
The applause and cheers after their last Christmas night performance in Goldenrod made Tin Tin so incredibly happy that he evolved into a Chimecho! He still loves to ring, all day every day, but the sound of a wind chime is far easier on the ears than a jingle bell, so he's less of a nuisance in general. He's also calmed down a bit, so he can stop when Kazuki asks him to.
Now that he can produce a full range of sounds, they're working on his melodic skills, and his clarion notes gel nicely with Honk Tonk's sweet voice.
Boomer
Boomer the Exploud ♂
OT: Krieg
Level: 100
Type: Normal
Egg group: Monster / Field
Ability: Soundproof
Nature: Careful
Moveset:
Met at: Egg received December 9th, 2017
Exploud communicates its feelings to others by emitting whistle-like sounds from the tubes of its body. This Pokémon only raises its voice when it is in battle.
Kazuki was pretty lucky to get a soundproof Whismur, or else it probably would have hated him! He still doesn't like too much commotion though, so Kazuki tries to accommodate him by being quiet while he's out of his ball. He's timid, so he needs a lot of gentle encouragement.
However, he's a great battler, because he has a tendency to unleash his attacks against anything that makes too much noise, which includes confrontational Pokemon. Because of this, Kazuki is trying to nurture him as a fighter. His success at this is mixed, but he's trying.
Evolved into Loudred on Feburary 20th, 2017
Boomer's personality changed drastically when he evolved. He lost all traces of timidness and gained bold toughness in its stead. Now, instead of hating noise, he likes to join in on any racket the team might be making and... Tends to drown them all out in the process.
Kazuki still encourages his love of battle, and that's where he really lets loose and makes noise like only a Loudred can. He really does deafen himself, just like the Dex says. Kazuki's had to invest in some really good earplugs so he doesn't go deaf too.
Evolved into Loudred on September 1st, 2018
Boomer has grown into Kazuki's most reliable fighter now that he's fully evolved. And he's learned a little bit of restraint in the process! Instead of only using his mouth to communicate, he's begun to use the various other amps and whistles on his body to talk as well. Now Kazuki only needs the earplugs when he's battling.
Kazuki always takes Boomer with him when traveling new or particularly dangerous areas, but he also enjoys guarding the house when Kazuki is away on his daily errands. All the other Pokemon in the team count on him to keep them all safe. It's a confidence that Boomer accepts with pride.
Kahoko
Kahoko the Vulpix ♀
OT: Botan
Level: 70
Type: Fire
Egg group: Field
Ability: Flash Fire
Nature: Naive
Moveset:
Met at: Egg Received December 25th, 2017
At the time of its birth, Vulpix has one white tail. The tail separates into six if this Pokémon receives plenty of love from its Trainer. The six tails become magnificently curled.
Kahoko was a wonderful Christmas present. Kazuki had admired other people's Vulpixes from afar and had secretly wanted one for himself for awhile. When his hatched, he named her Kahoko after his real-world crush,and it soon became apparent that their personalities were similar as well! Kahoko is a kind and cheerful Pokemon that works earnestly. Kazuki spoils her a lot, and keeps her more like a pet than a Pokemon, but she's still a good fighter when she has to take action.
Amp
Amp the Electrode
OT: Jean Kirstein
Level: 100
Type: Electric
Egg group: Mineral
Ability: Soundproof
Nature: Rash
Moveset:
Met at: Egg Received December 20th, 2017
It stores electric energy under very high pressure. It often explodes with little or no provocation.
Amp was given to Kazuki as an egg from Jean, because he wants everyone in the world to have a Voltorb, I guess. Amp is extremely helpful to the team because, like its parents, it actually likes to fight, although Kazuki discourages him from self destructing. It and Maestra are also very good friends, because she loves to chase it around as it rolls at high speeds.
Kazuki is trying to figure out a way to connect Amp up to some kind of sound system as a power supply, so his troupe can hold even larger performances! Since its soundproof, there's no danger to its hearing, at least!
Evolved into Electrode on March 31st, 2018
As one of few Pokemon on Kazuki's team that actually enjoys battling, Amp evolved fairly quickly. In fact, it takes after its "father", and has a bad habits of rolling off after wild Pokemon in hopes of picking a fight. It can still be reined in though, and isn't aggressive at all with his own team. It and Maestra still have regular games of chase.
Kazuki has taken it to electronic stores, and they've figured out a way to funnel its latent electricity into a portable amp using, well, electrodes. They stick them onto its body and feed them in using a standard plug. It helps to spend its excess power so it doesn't randomly explode.
Now they just have to work on its professionalism. If it gets too excited during a song, the amp tends to short out.
Azuma
Azuma the Sensu Oricorio ♂
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 60
Type: Ghost / Flying
Egg group: Flying
Ability: Dancer
Nature: Mild
Moveset:
Met at: Lavender Town (level 18); February 3rd, 2018
It charms its opponents with its refined dancing. When they let their guard down, it places a curse on them that will bring on their demise.
Lavender Town is known for it's famous Pokemon graveyards, but there are graveyards for humans too. While visiting a Pokemon orphanage, Kazuki learned of a dancing ghost that had been haunting the local cemetery as of late, disorienting and fending off other mourners. The manager there suspected that it was a Pokemon who's trainer had died, and asked if Kazuki could look into it for them.
With his Normal-type Maestra to guard him, Kazuki went to check it out. Her Foresight allowed him to see that the problem was an Oricorio, perched upon a grave decorated with beautiful, fresh purple flowers. It put up a fight when it was discovered, but Kazuki was able to capture it. He named it Azuma, after a friend back home.
He's still standoffish, but Kazuki is slowly working to rehabilitate him.
Aria
Aria the Altaria ♀
OT: Newt Scamander
Level: 100
Type: Normal / Flying
Egg group: Flying / Dragon
Ability: Natural Cure
Nature: Modest
Moveset:
Met at: Egg received March 24th, 2018
Altaria dances and wheels through the sky among billowing, cotton-like clouds. By singing melodies in its crystal-clear voice, this Pokémon makes its listeners experience dreamy wonderment.
Kazuki just can't help himself when it comes to cute, singing Pokemon. He needed very little charming to take an egg from Newt.
Aria displays most of the normal behaviors Swablu have. She likes to sit on Kazuki's head as they travel, and compulsively cleans all of his supplies. Kazuki doesn't mind at all-- his trumpet's never been shinier! They'll hum simple songs and lullabies together in the round. She can also make a sound very similar to a harmonica.
Evolved into Altaria on July 1st, 2018 (Fed 10 Rare Candies)
Now that Aria has evolved into a fully-fledged Altaria, she has unwittingly struck up a sort of rivalry with Honky Tonk. While she has little competitive spirit, Honky Tonk is overly proud of his own ability to sing, and feels that there's only room for one diva in this team of Pokemon. He often butts in when Kazuki is trying to work with Aria one-on-one.
Kazuki now has to coddle Honky Tonk's ego more than ever before. Meanwhile, Aria barely realizes that there's a problem. She still likes to cuddle Kazuki with her fluffy wings and obsessively polish all of his things.
Shimizu
Shimizu the Lapras ♂
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 70
Type: Water / Ice
Egg group: Monster / Water 1
Ability: Water Absorb
Nature: Quiet
Moveset:
Met at: Route 15 (level 5); November 4th, 2018
Its high intelligence enables it to comprehend human speech. When it's in a good mood, it sings in its beautiful voice.
Kazuki found Shimizu as a baby, washed up on the shores near Fuchsia City, with no other Lapras nearby. After camping out for a day nearby, he found that his feared assumption proved to be true-- that this little one had been separated from his pod somehow.
He knew that Lapras were gentle and easily frightened, so he contacted a friend with expertise on the species for help on what to do. After some very slow and cautious attempts at befriending the creature, Kazuki was able to come close enough to catch him with a minimal amount of trauma. He brought him to the shores near his home on Route 12 so he would be able to care for him and keep an eye on him without having to sever him from his wild roots.
Kazuki isn't quite sure what to do with him yet, but he knows that the right path to take will make itself clear with time.
Luna
Luna the Noivern ♀
OT: Chise Hatori
Level: 100
Type: Flying / Dragon
Egg group: Flying
Ability: Frisk
Nature: Calm
Moveset:
Met at: Received (Level 35) December 2nd, 2018
The ultrasonic waves it emits from its ears can reduce a large boulder to pebbles. It swoops out of the dark to attack.
After Chise disappeared from the Pokemon world, Luna turned up at Kazuki's doorstep. The little bat had been around before to deliver mail and packages, so he recognized her instantly. She brought sad tidings-- Kazuki immediately checked his Gear and saw that Chise's contacts had vanished-- but he was glad to give her a new home.
She likes to hang out with Kazuki's other fighters, Amp and Mewzers, since they're the ones that protect the house. It also gives her the opportunity to get away from the noise the other Pokemon make every now and then. It's tough having such big, sensitive ears when you live with a musician!
Evolved into Noivern on March 1st, 2019
Now evolved, Luna has become Kazuki's strongest fighter. She is totally silent and deadly accurate. Although he is not the best at supporting a fighting spirit, Kazuki lets her be who she is, and keeps her free most of the time so she can hunt and protect her territory as she sees fit. Whenever he has to travel far or go somewhere that might be dangerous, he takes her with him.
Despite her hunter's skill, she still has calm disposition, and can easily be befriended with a simple offer of her favorite fruit. She doesn't forget those who are kind to her, and those who are not.
Clef
Clef the Chatot ♀
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 55
Type: Normal / Flying
Egg group: Flying
Ability: Keen Eye
Nature: Docile
Moveset:
Met at: Received (level 15) on December 24th, 2018
It keeps rhythm by flicking its tail feathers like a metronome. It imitates human speech.
Clef was a Christmas present from Armin, and Kazuki was absolutely thrilled with it. He'd always wanted a Chatot, after his first Poke-Prom where there was an aviary full of them, but he spends his time in Kanto, and they don't really hang around in the area.
She's an absolute sweetheart. Of course a Flying type that literally has a music note for a head would thrive in a musician's care! She gets along great with all of his other Pokemon, even Tonks, who tends to be jealous of Kazuki's attention. He works with her individually to nurture her musical abilities, and someday hopes to have her be his permanent accompanist.
Pele
Pele the Cinderace ♂
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 50
Type: Fire
Egg group: Field/Human-Like
Ability: Blaze
Nature: Hardy
Moveset: Tackle; Growl; Ember; Quick Attack; Double Kick; Flame Charge; Agility; Pyro Ball; Headbutt; Counter; Bounce;
Met at: Pallet Town (Level 5); March 20th, 2019
It juggles a pebble with its feet, turning it into a burning soccer ball. Its shots strike opponents hard and leave them scorched.
Kazuki met Pele not long after the plane crash, when he started to volunteer with the Aether Foundation to help take care of all the orphaned Pokemon. He formed a particular bond with one of the little fire type rabbits who loved to kick a soccer ball around. The Pokemon eventually decided to come home with him, and live with his other Pokemon. After a long time simply living at Kazuki's house, Pele gained the courage to stay in a Pokeball, and even partake in battles.
His name is obviously inspired by his fondness of soccer, and he likes to go on jogs with Kazuki in the morning.
Tsukimori
Tsukimori the Absol ♂
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 100
Type: Dark
Egg group: Field
Ability: Pressure
Nature: Mild
Moveset:
Met at: Egg received May 20th, 2019
Although it's said to bring disaster, in actuality, this Pokémon possesses a calm disposition and warns people of any crises that loom.
After nearly two years in the Pokemon world as a "Breeder," Kazuki finally had his first clutch of eggs. At first they were a total mystery, as he didn't know who his Furret, Maestra, had ended up finding to breed with... But when he was surprised with an Absol among the Sentrets that had hatched, he realized that Maestra had had a fling with Annie's Absol, Lute. While the Sentrets were given away, Kazuki decided to keep the Absol.
He has a very put-upon attitude of cool resignation, which helped to inspire his name, along with the moon-shape of his horn. He's a bit of an oddball in Kazuki's group, since he's not terribly energetic or outgoing, and his only music-related attack is one you definitely don't want to hear, he's not unhappy with his lot in life. He'd just rather do this own thing. You know.
DJ "Chip" CHIPTUNEZ
DJ "Chip" CHIPTUNEZ the Porygon
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 50
Type: Normal
Egg group: Mineral
Ability: Keen Eye
Nature: Quirky
Moveset:
Met at: Egg received April 30th, 2019
A manmade Pokémon that came about as a result of research. It is programmed with only basic motions.
Chip was in the shiny Pokemon egg Kazuki received for helping the Legendary Seekers after sighting both Lugia and Articuno during the Prom Cruise in April. Kazuki wasn't entirely sure what he was going to get, and he's still not entirely sure what to make of this Porygon.
Its movements are weird and jerky, and it has a tendency to "glitch out" for moments where its body takes on a static-y look and it makes an awful 90's era dial-up noise. Kazuki thinks it might be because its shiny. He's is hoping to find some kind of computer expert to see if it can be fixed.
Emma
Emma the Oshawott ♀
OT: Ash Fox
Level: 30
Type: Water
Egg group: Field
Ability: Torrent
Nature: Docile
Moveset:
Holding: Everstone
Met at: Received (level 30) on August 18th, 2019
The scalchop on its stomach isn't just used for battle--it can be used to break open hard berries as well.
Kazuki inherited this Oshawott from Jean Kirschtein after he left the Pokemon world. Jean was a trainer, and Kazuki was worried at first that the orphan wouldn't settle in well with his more laid-back group. But Emma proved to be a very sweet-natured Pokemon that wasn't particularly interested in battle, and she soon found a place in his troupe. Honky Tonk is particularly fond of her, and treats her a with a big brotherly... sisterly... Well, he's taken her under his flipper, so to speak. He enjoys teaching her songs and dances, and dresses her up in contest fashion.
No plans to evolve her as of now. She seems to enjoy her basic form, so she'll stay that way.
Cotton
Cotton the Ampharos ♂
OT: Yayoi Kise
Level: 100
Type: Electric
Egg group: Monster / Field
Ability: Static
Nature: Hardy
Moveset:
Met at: Received (Level 100) on August 30th, 2019
The tail's tip shines brightly and can be seen from far away. It acts as a beacon for lost people.
Cotton came to Kazuki of his own accord after Yayoi Kise left the Pokemon world, bearing a letter to explain his appearance. While Kazuki was rather broken up about losing such a close friend, he opened up his home to Cotton with as much warmth as he could manage.
The Ampharos took some time getting used to his new surroundings. Yayoi was a trainer that regularly challenged Gyms, so Kazuki's hands-off approach to raising Pokemon was definitely an adujustment. With a lot of new-found personal freedom, Cotton spent a lot of time away from the small sanctuary of Kazuki's property. But he always came back eventually, so Kazuki gave him his liberty.
Since he lives near the bridges and docks of Route 12, there are plenty of fishing boats and other vessels off the nearby coast. Cotton has found his own calling in working as a guiding light on foggy days and moonless nights. His work is well-appreciated by the locals.
Wiggles
Wiggles the Yamper ♂
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 50
Type: Electric
Egg group: Field
Ability: Ball Fetch
Nature: Jolly
Moveset:
Holding: Everstone
Met at: Egg Received; December 25th, 2019
This gluttonous Pokémon only assists people with their work because it wants treats. As it runs, it crackles with electricity.
Wiggles came out of the special Galar egg that everyone received over the holidays. After he hatched, it didn't take long for Kazuki to come to the realization that he had just been given a mini-me to join his team. Wiggles is a highly energetic, super enthusiastic, sweets-loving ball of affection that wants everyone to be his friend and can charm nearly anyone into a smile. Kazuki this named him after his best trait: his wiggles.
Sarge
Sarge the Silvally
OT: Unknown
Level: 1
Type: Dragon
Egg group: Undiscovered
Ability: RKS System
Nature: Careful
Moveset:
Met at: Pokemon received from the Adoption Program February 8th, 2020
Through the bond it formed with its Trainer, its will was strengthened, and it was able to destroy its control mask.
Sarge, originally called Sergeant, is Kazuki's latest rehabilitation project. He'd always been interested in Type: Null, but had never been able to adopt one due to certain restrictions. Once the new program, A Null for Every Home, and a Home for Every Null was launched, Kazuki happily took a previously owned Null to give it a forever home.
Sarge has a strong will, but thankfully its careful nature keeps it from throwing its weight around too much. It shows no sign of being mishandled in the past, but is generally low-spirited. Kazuki assumes being given up by its original owner left it brokenhearted. The only thing that really interests it is keeping watch over the smaller Pokemon in Kazuki's troupe, and a little more worryingly, herding them into small spaces.
It will take time to gain its trust... And break it of its bad habits.
Evolved into Silvally upon the opening of the Silver Horn, May 2021
Montblanc
Montblanc the Alcremie (Ruby Swirl) ♀
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 20
Type: Fairy
Egg group: Fairy
Ability: Aroma Veil (Ability Change Candy used)
Nature: Gentle
Moveset:
Met at: Camping Curry Event (Level 5); March 20th, 2020
When it trusts a Trainer, it will treat them to berries it's decorated with cream. The cells that compose its cream fluctuated suddenly during evolution, giving the cream a mixed flavor.
Kazuki for the most part came to the Curry Festival to gorge himself on one of his favorite foods, but he also had a secondary motive: To catch a friend for his patisserie Slurpuff, Sticky. Sticky has always been an oddball in Kazuki's team for not being interested in music, or even battling, and he thought it would be good to get him a peer who would share in his passion. The two get along swimmingly, so that mission was a success.
Montblanc herself is a sweet, gentle Pokemon that wants nothing more than to make other people and Pokemon happy with the treats she helps Sticky create. She fits in well with Kazuki's laid-back crew.
Daruma
Daruma the Togekiss ♂
OT: Chise Hatori
Level: 50
Type: Fairy / Flying
Egg group: Flying / Fairy
Ability: Serene Grace
Nature: Quirky
Moveset:
Met at: Received (Level 50) April, 2020
Known as a bringer of blessings, it's been depicted on good-luck charms since ancient times. These Pokémon are never seen anywhere near conflict or turmoil. Recently, they've hardly been seen at all.
After getting word that Yuuko had left the Pokemon world, Kazuki went to see if he could help any of the Pokemon she had left behind. Out of all of them, it was obvious that Daruma needed the most help. The poor thing was rather depressed, which a Togekiss should never be, and Kazuki soon found out why-- He was not his second trainer, but his third. Yuuko had taken Daruma from Chise when she left, a long time ago.
The poor thing needed a lot of time and careful attention, but thankfully, Kazuki actually owned an old friend of his-- Luna, a Noivern that Kazuki has taken in back when Chise first disappeared. They spent a lot of time together. These days, it feel like Kazuki is running his own Pokemon orphanage, with all the strays he's taken in...
Hopefully, someday Daruma will go back to being a Pokemon to spread joy, like he was meant to.
Mac
Mac the Applin ♂
OT: Flayn
Level: 26
Type: Grass/Dragon
Egg group: Grass/Dragon
Ability: Ripen
Nature: Timid
Moveset:
Met at: Received (Level 26) June, 2020
It spends its entire life inside an apple. It hides from its natural enemies, bird Pokémon, by pretending it's just an apple and nothing more.
From Flayn: "Mac is a shy wyrm boy who loves Flayn unconditionally. To him, she is his mother, for he was hatched in her care. He eats a lot, but especially sweets, and in him Flayn finds a kindred sweet tooth spirit. His favorite thing in the world is to take a nap after a large meal."
A Pokemon with this kind of disposition will have an easy time integrating into Kazuki's group. He's already beginning to show interest hanging out with Sticky and Montblanc. He's still shy, and probably will be after losing his human mama, but he has nothing but time to feel comfortable again.
Samwise
Samwise the Dragonite ♂
OT: Bertolt Hoover
Level: 100
Type: Dragon / Flying
Egg group: Water 1 / Dragon
Ability: Inner Focus
Nature: Jolly
Moveset:
Met at: Received (Level 72) July 20th, 2020
Dragonite is capable of circling the globe in just 16 hours. It is a kindhearted Pokémon that leads lost and foundering ships in a storm to the safety of land.
Kauzki took Samwise in at Armin's request. He was a Pokemon that he inherited from a friend that had left the Pokemon world, and while Armin took excellent care of him, Samwise had a hard time fitting into Armin's group. Always ready to help a friend or a Pokemon in need, Kazuki agreed to give him some rehabilitation.
Samwise so far has done pretty well in Kazuki's laid-back group, and has enjoyed his time of rest and also his general freedom, since Kazuki rarely penned his Pokemon up in any way. Samwise become good friends with another rescue, Cotton, who works as a beacon at a nearby lighthouse, and they work together to keep the ships at sea safe.
Happy
Happy the Blissey ♀
OT: Kazuki Hihara
Level: 30
Type: Normal
Egg group: Fairy
Ability: Healer (Ability Candy used)
Nature: Gentle
Moveset:
Met at: Egg received from Santa, December 25th, 2020
Whenever a Blissey finds a weakened Pokémon, it will share its egg and offer its care until the other Pokémon is all better.
Kazuki received Happy's egg from Santa after he helped with the attack on the Christmas market in Goldenrod. He'd been wanting a Chansey for awhile, since they were Pokemon known for taking care of and healing others. One would make a great addition to the Silver Horn! It wasn't long after she hatched that she gained enough happiness to evolve into a Blissey.
She is the very example of her species, gentle, caring and sweet. She loves to share her eggs with anyone that needs cheering up. It's hard to tell, but she's shiny too!
