== The Protagonists ==
 
'''[[The Hero]]''' -- A human who wakes up in a forest to find they've been [[Involuntary Transformation|mysteriously transformed]] into [[Cursed with Awesome|a Pokémon]], with no memory of how or why... or [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|much of anything]] beyond [[Hello, Insert Name Here|their own name]]. And as time goes on, they gradually start to see a vision of Gardevoir (both in dreams and in reality), who seems to know much about the player's past...
* [[Audience Surrogate]]
* [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]]: After stopping [[The End of the World as We Know It]], both the player and the partner find themselves in some sort of Underworld, making them technically dead - until {{spoiler|Gengar comes and fishes their souls back from the Underworld.}}
* [[Cursed with Awesome]]
* {{spoiler|[[Disappears Into Light]]}}
Line 21:
* [[Trapped in Another World]]: This being so since the two worlds are ''not'' on different time periods, but rather in different ''places''.
 
'''The Partner''' -- A Pokémon who dreams of founding a Rescue Team, but doesn't have anyone to form the team with... until the player comes into the Pokémon world. After rescuing a Caterpie from a forest, the rescue team is formed by the player and the partner. The partner also provides the player a team base/home at the very beginning.
* [[Back Fromfrom the Dead]]: See explanation above.
* [[Compressed Vice]]: Briefly shows cowardice twice, claiming [[Playing Sick|a bad stomachache]] in order to beg out of an impending boss fight. This doesn't work, and is never referred to thereafter.
* [[Flat Character]]: Doesn't get as much [[Character Development]] as the ''Explorers'' partner received.
Line 33:
 
'''Team Meanies''' - A trio consisting of Gengar, Medicham, and Ekans, who wants to use this rescue team business as a part of their plan to gain power and riches. Led by Gengar, and is the second boss of the game.
* [[Card-Carrying Villain]]: Gengar openly and proudly states his "hidden motives" for starting a rescue team. Really, the team name is a dead giveaway.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|Gengar. He saves the protagonist and the partner from the Underworld as well as helping crafting the Teleport Crystal for the duo to go to the Sky Tower.}} Also, {{spoiler|turns out he was the "cursed" human from the Ninetales legend and he goes into remorse to break that curse on Gardevoir.}}
* [[Obviously Evil]]
* [[Poison Is Evil]]: Ekans and Gengar {{spoiler|although subverted with Gengar later, as seen under [[Heel Face Turn]]}}.
 
'''Team ACT''' - A trio of '''A'''lakazam, '''C'''harizard, and '''T'''yranitar who are said to be the best rescue team around, due to their Gold Rank achievement.
Line 47:
'''The Kecleon Brothers''' - Two brother Kecleon who run the local Item Shop. The older green Kecleon sells food and berries, and the younger purple Kecleon sells orbs and Technical Machines. They also can be found manning the occasional [[Dungeon Shop]] (but beware: [[Shoplift and Die]]).
 
'''Kangaskhan''' - A matronly Kangaskhan who takes care of the locals' Storage. Always has kind words for everyone, and calls others terms of endearment like 'dear' or 'sweetie'.
* [[Team Mom]]: Acts like one to the hero's team.
 
'''Gulpin''' - A Gulpin who runs the Gulpin Link Shop, where he teaches customers how to [[Combos|link moves together]]. He can also help Pokémon remember any moves they've forgotten.
 
'''Persian''' - Teller of the "Persian Bank", who jealously watches over money Pokémon store so they don't lose it if a dungeon expedition goes horribly wrong.
 
'''Wigglytuff''' - A Wigglytuff who runs the Friend Area Shop, where Pokémon can buy friend areas to recruit more kinds of Pokémon. Only available after clearing Skarmory in Mt. Steel.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Though not ''quite'' as much as ''Explorers''' Wigglytuff.
 
'''Makuhita''' - The head of the Makuhita Dojo, where Pokémon can train in special type-themed dungeons, and even in some dungeons where they can battle the other rescue teams.
 
'''Caterpie''' and '''Metapod''' - Two friends who are on friendly terms with the protagonists. They had to be rescued in Tiny Woods and Sinister Woods, respectively.
* [[Hero Worshipper]]: Both of them, Caterpie a little more so.
 
Line 66:
 
'''Whiscash''' - An elderly Pokémon who knows all the ancient legends and lore.
* {{spoiler|[[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: He knows and relates the legend of Ninetales' curse, which directly contributes to the hero being [[Mis BlamedMisblamed]] and [[Stern Chase|run out of town]]. To his credit, he had no clue this would occur, and clearly feels guilty about it.}}
 
'''Gardevoir''' - A mysterious Pokémon that haunts the players dreams. {{spoiler|It's revealed she protected her trainer, now Gengar, from getting cursed by Ninetales.}}
