Patch the Banette and Brenna Aria the Talonflame!

Personality: He's a prankster, without a doubt. But only around Brenna Aria. He likes prank her frequently, but pranking others is something he's a bit hesitant about. Given, he might just do it, but it would be after a lot of thought and hesitation. He's not so great with socializing, and being a Banette, a Pokemon with a not-so-good reputation, doesn't exactly help in the friend-making department. He prefers to stay away from larger groups, and loves to be alone. He's pretty calm most of the time, but around his friends, he can be quite loud and outgoing. Honesty isn't one of Patch's strong points, but that's because of... reasons...
Friends: Brenna Aria
Battle Style/Strategy: He normally sets up his Rain Dance, which he learned off of a TM, then uses the rain to obscure the opponent's vision. Patch also normally relies on moves that debilitate the opponent, as well as hiding himself using his ghostly abilities.
History/Back Story: As a Shuppet, Patch floated around aimlessly, searching for things to do. He really had nobody else with him ever, considering his reputation as a ghost type. He found enjoyment in raiding other trainer's things, fading into their packs and taking things from them without their knowing. He occasionally stole things like TM's and things like that, but normally it was just berries and some money. At one point, a trainer caught him, and hastily proceeded to relentlessly train him as punishment. Patch was sent out against countless amounts of Pokemon that were may bigger than him. He suffered many injuries, often visiting Nurse Joy. In fact, he ended up visiting the nurses so often, that he gained the ability to tell them apart from eachother. At one point, he evolved into a Banette. His trainer didn't approve of this new form of his, so he released him, but not before challenging him to a battle. The trainer's entire team of 5 versus Patch. It was a tough fight, but due to the over-training he had received, he won, but at a cost. He suffered major injuries, and he had nobody to bring him to a Pokemon Center. Instead, he rummaged through his trainer's bag, stealing a Reaper Cloth and stitching it to himself to seal the battle wound. Nobody know what is really under the cloth aside from himself. After the huge fight, he encountered a Talonflame named Brenna Aria. The two almost instantly connected, becoming good friends and wandering the regions together.Name: Brenna Aria

Battle Style/Strategy: Brenna is extremely fast and powerful, and she uses this to her advantage. She fights offensively and rarely considers defending.
History/Back Story: When she was just a newly-hatched fletchling, Brenna Aria was trapped and taken to a secret laboratory owned and run by Team Rocket. Despite the fact that the organization had been disbanded for years, certain admins continued to capture pokemon with traps before researching and experimenting on them in secret. Brenna was confined in a tight space with a shackle around her foot, keeping her from flying away. The admin that contained her was interested in increasing her speed and power by administering a certain substance of their own creation to her via injections. The substance indeed increased her speed and power a hundredfold, but not without side effects. Some of her feathers were speckled brown. She became more ferocious towards the admin that caged her and she often attempted to peck or bite them. When Brenna evolved into a talonflame from the flight training that the admin had her go through, her beak and the feathers nearest to her eyes turned gray. Later that night, Brenna struggled and screeched and pecked at the chains that held her in the lab. She clawed and pecked at the admin when they came close to her, leaving deep scratches and wounds across their face and hands. Brenna had dreamt off freedom for far too long. She was freed by the very power that the admin had given her, as with one final flap of her mighty wings, the chain snapped, and Brenna flew around the lab at lightning speeds in triumph. She busted through the nearby window and flew out of the lab, leaving the admin screaming in anger behind her. She will one day return to save the other victims of the admin, but until then, she follows around a curious banette named Patch.
