The Teams:
TalkingLion:
Makuhita[Sumo](M)
Nature: Adamant (+1 Atk, -1 SpAtk)
Type: Fighting
Fighting: Fighting STAB; ignore weight restrictions of throwing/grappling moves. Superior reaction time in close quarters.
Abilities:
Thick Fat (Innate): This Pokemon has a great deal of extra fat or muscle that increases its resistance to extreme heat or extreme cold, reducing the type effectiveness of Fire and Ice-typed attacks to the next level of resistance (2x weak becomes neutral, neutral becomes resistance, etc.)
Guts (Innate): This Pokemon is tenacious and will work ever harder when under a status condition, raising the Base Attack Power of all its physical attacks by two (2). Pokemon with Guts ignore the attack drop from burn.
Sheer Force(DW) (Can be enabled): This Pokemon can energize all its attacks with secondary effect chances less than 100%. When Enabled, the Base Attack Power of every move with an effect chance less than 100% increases by two (2), but they will never have a secondary effect.

<Embirch> [Pine] (M)
Nature: Brave (+Attack, -Speed, -10 Evasion)
Type: Fire/Grass
Fire: Fire STAB; immune to burn, 50% reduction in freeze chance, emit a low glow in dark places, takes additional damage if active open flames are exposed to a water attack. Superior senses in volcanic or brushfire areas.
Grass: Grass STAB; Immunity to Leech Seed and Worry Seed. 50% reduction in status effect chance of oncoming “powder” attacks. More mobile in areas with strong natural light sources. Superior senses in tall grass and forest areas. Able to use Wrap and Bind without losing focus.
About Pine: The story of how Spenser and Pine met goes back to the team's visit to an icy mountain as part of Christmas preparations. The team saw an Abomasnow attacking and tormenting a small group of Embirch and Flarelm. With some encouragement, Pine stood up as the only Embirch in the group brave enough to take on the Abomasnow head-on. A battle ensued, and with the backing of Spenstar's team and the trainer's instructions, this brave Embirch proved powerful enough to win. Ultimately, Embirch ended up joining Spenser's team, and was named Pine.
Abilities:
