Family: Norman Makura (Father), Maria Makura (Mother)

Known Backstory

Lia is known as the Emerald Destined, the member of the Sky Tribe with the burden of holding the Green Orb in her heart. As a child, she was completely isolated from her family and was often alone.

When she was only four or so, a vengeful organization known as Team Sky destroyed the Sky Pillar in search of the Green Orb. Lia was the only survivor.

Badly injured and horrified, the small child forced amnesia upon herself to keep her sanity. Latios and Latias, who found her before Team Sky could, sent her to live with a childless couple in Olivine...

It was there that Lia thrived. Her past no more than her reoccuring nightmares, she attended school, made friends and lived as a normal girl. She became best friends with Irene, a tomboyish girl that lived across the street. They spent a lot of time wandering around Olivine Beach and dreaming of the day when they set out to become trainers.

Unfortunately, Norman's job forced the family to move to Littleroot, Hoenn. After a tearful goodbye, Lia and her family left for Hoenn for a new life. Once there, Lia was quickly thrust into the world of pokemon training, all beginning with a demonic little Torchic named Kou.

Badges: None

Family: Professor Samuel Birch (Father), Amy Birch (Mother), Trion Birch (Younger Brother)

Known Backstory

Ryu grew up in the quiet town of Littleroot his whole life. Because there were few other children in town, he spent his childhood helping his father in the lab, surrounded by pokemon of every kind.

Because his father is good friends with Norman, Ryu and Lia played together a few times as children, but neither one remembers.

His younger brother was born a few months after Ryu's seventh birthday, triggering a change in his personality. While he had been a much more carefree, devil-may-care kid, he suddenly became responsible and somewhat precocious.

Because he acted so much older than he was, he took to reading books all the time and made few friends in school.

He decided very early that he would lead the lab after his father. He particularly loves to study Pokemon Behavior.

Ryu is closer to his father than his mother, but loves them both. The professor couldn't be more proud of his son, but Amy worries that Ryu spends too much time studying and not enough time being a kid. Trion, more commonly called Ion by his whole family, simply adores his older brother. He enjoys clinging to Ryu and preparing for his own eventual journey.

Darren Moss


Birthday and Age: April 3rd, 15 years old

Height and Weight: 5'9", and he hasn't weighed himself in three years

Hair Color: Ear-length crimson hair that stays messy

Eye Color: Brownish gold

Clothing: Varies often

Accessories: Black backpack

Inside...
- A ridiculous amount of pokemon cosplay outfits, all carefully folded
- A sewing kit to repair his clothes on the go
- Plenty of food for himself and his pokemon

Personality: Rather dry and indifferent, Darren tends to internalize things. He seems to have a lot of pent-up anger, but he remains nearly emotionless. He's always looking out for number one.

Pokemon



Mint the Grovyle, Hikage the Kirlia, Leaf the Lotad, Red Tail the Tailow
Go here to see them.

Badges: Stone Badge, Knuckle Badge

Ribbons: Cool Contest: Normal

Family: Unknown

Known Backstory

Very little is known about Darren right now, as he is quite tacturn about the subject.

We do know, however, that Darren has been travelling since he was twelve years old, somewhat against his will. His pokemon are also slightly strange, and he won't reveal how they got that way.

It seems that Darren's parents are scientists that investigate the boundaries between the types. Darren's mother has a Pikachu that uses Fire-type attacks such as Flamethrower, so they must be fairly successful.

Anna Orimo

First Appearence: Chapter 23

Birthday and Age: July 17th, 14 years old

Height and Weight: 5'6", light enough to balance on wires, oddly enough

Hair Color: Very dark brown, naturally wavy hair. She's more prone to curl it than to straighten it.

Eye Color: Light brown/amber (Yeah, in the picture they're blue. She's been known to wear contacts. ;D )

Inside...
- A portable sewing machine
- A ridiculous amount of clothes
- Fashion Magazines
- Poke Flute

Personality: Anna is, in essence, an eccentric girl. She always talks in a roundabout, off-handed manner as if she wants to confuse people, but she can be straightforward when required. She's never afraid to say what she thinks, even if it sounds rude. She tries to stand out because she likes attention.

Pokemon


Puru the Jigglypuff, Xana the Zangoose

Ribbons: Cool Contest: Normal, Super; Cute Contest: Normal

Family: Mother, Lilian (Older Sister), Joseph (Older Brother), Maria (Younger Sister), Anthony (Younger Brother)

Known Backstory

Anna grew up as the third of five children in a poor family in Pacifilog. Ever since she was small, she acted up to attract attention. She certainly never let her family forget her. Their family was poor but happy, and they were very close knit.

Anna's father was a fisherman, working long hours to provide for his family. He always spoiled little Anna to death, bringing her tokens of his journeys. Unfortunately, the rapids west of Pacificlog are notoriously trecherous...

Her father was lost at sea when Anna was only eight. Her mother, jobless and penniless, had a complete breakdown and became dependant on her children. The eldest children, the then thirteen Lilian and the ten year old Joseph, dropped out of school and got part-time jobs to hold things together. Anna became responsible for seven year old Maria and four year old Anthony.

This continued for two more years. Lilian and Joseph eased their way back into school part time, and their mother got well enough to care for the younger children again. Anna began to feel useless...

Deciding entirely on her own that she was a burden to the family, she left a note and ran off for the mainland. She very nearly died, clinging to driftwood and washing up on Slateport Beach. She merely dusted off the sand and set off to capture a pokemon.

Somehow or another, Anna secured her two pokemon and began coordinating and sending money home. Her family now secure, she's now set on having fun!
