Rank: Bronze
Pokemon: X @ Magic Bounce
Xatu(*) [X] (M)
Nature: Mild (Adds * to Special Attack, Subtracts * from Defense)
Type: Psychic/Flying
Psychic: Psychic STAB; less susceptible to blinding, more susceptible to sound-based assaults as far as locking on with Psychic attacks, can lift and throw opponents with Psychic attacks regardless of weight difference. Psychic-type attacks are not godlike and cannot be used as a catchall for Disabling, Binding, and redirecting opposing attacks.
Flying: Flying STAB; immunity to Ground attacks outside extremely odd circumstances even for ground-based flying Pokemon. Enhanced aerial mobility. Superior senses in open air arenas.
Abilities:
Synchronize: (Innate) Pokemon with this ability mentally link their condition to an opposing Pokemon and pass on any status inflicted on them to their foe. Due to their body structure, Poison types cannot be poisoned and Fire types cannot be burned in this manner.
Early Bird: (Innate) This Pokemon is used to waking up at early hours or operating in low-light conditions and subsequently suffers from sleep status for only half as much time as other Pokemon.
Magic Bounce (DW): (Innate) This Pokemon has a Psychic sense that allows it to ward off non-damaging attacks as soon as they are launched, directing them back at the opponent.

X was Ana's first pokemon, as well as first shadowed pokemon. He was what made Ana discover what shadowed pokemon were and the Shadowed Laboratories. She received him as present as an egg, so she didn't realize it was a shadow pokemon at first. He has a rough telepathic connection with Ana, though it only functions outside of battle as X cannot withstand the strength needed to focus on battling and keeping up with the telepathy. He is the calm one of the group, often keeping the other rambunctious members in line. X is also Ana's most trusted partner, helping her judge and pick new members of the team. He finds other Xatu crazy for staring into the sun all day, even if it is how they see the future. because he thinks they will hurt their eyes. Thus, he wears a pair of Black Glasses to protect his eyes. This, incidentally, is why he cannot tell the future.

L is the "sunshine and rainbows", forever positive girl of the team, which irritates X a lot. X personally thinks L absorbed one too many volts as a child and that's what made her like this, and someday those volts are going to fly out of her and she's going to become sane. There is so far no backing to this theory. L has this strange obsession with mascara, which is strange since she has no eyelashes to apply it to. Everyday she just paints it on to her eyelids (she's found the Kingdra's Ink brand is the most water-resistant) and at the end of the day, she can usually just rinse it off with a special saltwater solution (that's why L only swims in freshwater). How L applies the mascara with stubby arms that can't reach her face, no one is quite sure.
Pokemon: H @ Guts
Hariyama [H] (M)
Nature: Adamant (Adds * to Attack, Subtracts * from Special Attack)
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.

H is basically the Snorlax of the team: eats constantly, sleeps constantly, and hits like a truck. The most people can get out of him when he's awake is he's pretty relaxed and laid-back, not really getting into or intervening in fights. However, he is very sensitive about his missing belly spot, and flies into a rage if you mention it.
