You're almost 40 years old and you're finally catching up with technology. Congratulations, Luella. Here you are, standing in front of the Pokemon Center's PC, struggling to keep your current Pokemon team to the humble amount of 6. This is exactly why you hate restrictions, because now you have to make choices like these, and you know it's going to take you an hour just to figure out who should go where. Eventually you'll make up your mind and pick at random, not feeling particularly close to any of them, but it still feels unfortunate to stuff them inside such a tiny box.
>STAR PLAYERS
The Pokemon Luella uses the most.
Pokedex Name: #327, Spinda ALIAS: Baby Dragon / Baby D / Babe GENDER: Female EGG GROUP: Field / Human-Like ABILITY: Tangled Feet NATURE: Hardy PERSONALITY: Used to getting bullied until she fought back at the Vendanturf Daycare, Baby Dragon lives with her pride on her sleeve, and she's constantly trying to prove to others that she's more reliable than she looks. She expresses her love by teasing others, usually through playful insults or arm punches, but she's surprisingly sensitive when others treat her the same way. Baby D and Red-Eyes are a part of Luella's muscle crew, and with their abilities, they help her collect wild Pokemon that are old enough to make the eggs she desires. Her use of language is crude and foul, which she picked up from the local TV shows Luella lets her Pokemon watch while away on business. OBTAINED: From older sister/Starter Pokemon. MOVE SET:
Pokedex Name: #505, Watchog ALIAS: Red-Eyes Black Dragon / Red-Eyes / Red GENDER: Male ABILITY: Illuminate EGG GROUP: Field NATURE: Serious PERSONALITY: Like Baby Dragon, he was hatched at a Vendanturf Daycare with no trainer to collect him. While Baby Dragon coped with harassment by punching faces in, Red-Eyes learned fast that if he wanted to get through the day, he had to hide away. He prefers to keep to himself with the help of the grouchy facade he likes to put up, chasing others away with small snarls and fur fluffed up like a furious cat. He's absolutely not against making friends once he deems them safe to be around, and while he does find annoyance in Luella and Baby Dragon's carefree, never-get-things-done personalities, he deeply appreciates their company and friendship. Red is Luella's reliable baby-sitter, and he's the one giving lectures when shit hits the fan. He's kind of a massive stick in the mud and doesn't get out much. He doesn't manage his stress well either, so he's prone to having stressful fits. OBTAINED: From older sister/Starter Pokemon. MOVE SET:
Mean Look | Work Up | Baton Pass | Crunch Super Fang | Detect | Rototiller | Confuse Ray
* Move Wishlist *
Mean Look | Work Up | Baton Pass | Crunch | Rototiller After You | Super Fang | Confuse Ray | Detect | Toxic
Pokedex Name: #039, Jigglypuff ALIAS: Kidmodo Dragon / Kiddo / Kidd GENDER: Female ABILITY: Competitive EGG GROUP: Fairy NATURE: Naughty PERSONALITY: Snooty, imaginative, and reckless. Raised by Luella and several of her Pokemon, Kiddo was continuously spoiled as an Igglybuff, and now that she's grown into a teenage Jigglypuff, she doesn't take to being told 'no' all that well. She considers crayons to be too childish for her tastes, and Kiddo now prefers to draw her frustrations out with pens and colored pencils. She's not all that great, but Luella and her Pokemon continue to encourage her regardless of her wonky results. Has a habit of being the loudest in most conversations. Has a hard time catching herself when her voice starts to rise. OBTAINED: Johto, Ecruteak City. MOVE SET:
Pokedex Name: #030, Nidorina ALIAS: Mythical Beast of Serket / Serket GENDER: Female ABILITY: Rivalry EGG GROUP: Monster / Field NATURE: Quiet PERSONALITY: Unlike her parents, Serket doesn't say much and prefers to mind her own business. Hatched by Luella, she sees her as a mother figure, but gets pissy when she doesn't get the love and acknowledgement she deserves. Tends to be nasty and passive aggressive. OBTAINED: Egg Hatched 10/26/2014. EM: Charm. MOVE SET: Charm | Captivate | Flatter | Poison Fang | Double Kick

Look at all of those Pokemon you don't have. You're kind of a hoarder, aren't you? It's a good thing you hate to throw old food away, because these guys are gonna be finishing up all of the scraps that you don't feel like eating yourself. Scientists are still confused as to why any of your Pokemon would like you, but apparently they do sometimes. Other times you just let them run away in the hopes that they'll come back to you if you call out to them like Tarzan.
* Luella's water types reside in Tynntill's Aquarium when they are not in her party.
FISHY EGG MAKERS
Pokedex Name: #222, Corsola ALIAS: Waterdragon Fairy GENDER: Female ABILITY: Natural Cure EGG GROUP: Water 1, Water 3 NATURE: Rash PERSONALITY: Impulsive and quick to stand by her initial impressions, Waterdragon Fairy either likes you, or she wants nothing to do with you. She has yet to relax into the captive Pokemon lifestyle, and has retained several habits regarding collecting and storing food, bluffing and attacking at the first sign of danger, and the urge to hide herself in the nearest source of water whenever the situation allows it. She can be difficult to reason with, but once she trusts you, she likes to express her affections by making crowns and tiaras out of the horns she sheds. OBTAINED: Hoenn, Lilycove. MOVE SET: Recover | Mirror Coat | Earth Power | Spike Cannon | Aqua Ring | Rock Blast
Eggu Plan * Breed a Male Corsola with these attacks * Aqua Ring | Refresh | Recover | Mirror Coat Earth Power | Rock Blast | Ancient Power
* Pass Head Smash (Relicanth), Camouflage (Skrelp), and Nature Power (Lotad) onto Corsola *
Pokedex Name: #222, Corsola ALIAS: Prickle Fairy / Prickle GENDER: Male ABILITY: Hustle EGG GROUP: Water 1, Water 3 NATURE: Rash PERSONALITY: Much like his mother, he prefers to act first and think later. His gut is one of the few things he likes to rely on, and when it comes to fighting, Prickle is confident that the only thing his head is good for is for smashing everything in sight. OBTAINED: Hatched from Waterdragon Fairy and Danny's Relicanth on 1/6. MOVE SET: Head Smash | Refresh | Recover | Aqua Ring
Pokedex Name: #321, Wailord ALIAS: Blue-Eyes White Dragon / Blue-Eyes / Blu GENDER: Female ABILITY: Water Veil EGG GROUP: Field & Water 2 NATURE: Lonely PERSONALITY: Once known as Protag Lord, one of Luella's newest allies joins her side with occasional breaks in the Nue Aquarium promised before her capture. She easily holds a grudge, gets incredibly stressed out when alone, and had some traumas with a previous trainer that pushed her in one too many battles. She prefers the company of older Pokemon if she can help it, but that doesn't mean she won't keep an eye on Luella's little ones if they look like they're about to raise hell. Compared to Luella's other Wailord, this one is fairly temperamental and is prone to taking things way more seriously than she should. She's also pretty rough with both words and action, but Luella doesn't see a reason to control that aspect of her. OBTAINED: Hoenn, Lilycove. Wailord Horde. MOVE SET:
Pokedex Name: #321, Wailord ALIAS: Number 39: Utopia / Utopia / Opi GENDER: Male ABILITY: Oblivious EGG GROUP: Field & Water 2 NATURE: Naive PERSONALITY: Raised in the rough oceans of Lilycove until Luella caught him as a Wailord, this big guy was spoiled so much by his pod, he barely had the chance to toughen up in the wild. He's awfully similar to a goofy puppy dog, often flopping onto his backside to allow strangers to give his belly some T.L.C. Not gonna lie, this whale is absolutely clingy. Anyone that shows him attention will soon have a Wailord attempting to follow them home for dinner, much to Luella's distress. He's a loud and obnoxious sleeper, and even when he's awake, he'll greet everyone with delighted chirps as he nearly knocks over Luella's van in the process. OBTAINED: Hoenn, Lilycove. Wailord Horde. MOVE SET:
Whirlpool | Mist | Water Pulse | Rest

Pokedex Name: #366, Clamperl ALIAS: Echo the Deviant Shell Clamper GENDER: Female ABILITY: Shell Armor EGG GROUP: Water 1 NATURE: Docile PERSONALITY: Prefers to keep to herself, never shuts up once she warms up to you, often gives love clamps. Awfully good at hide and seek. If she needs to move, she'll propel herself forward with a Water Gun. OBTAINED: Lilycove, Hoenn. MOVE SET: Water Gun | Whirlpool | Shell Smash | Iron Defense

Pokedex Name: #422, Shellos ALIAS: Jester GENDER: Female ABILITY: Sand Force EGG GROUP: Water 1, Amorphous NATURE: Hasty PERSONALITY: Tends to jump on a frozen lake without first checking to see how stable the ice is. If you can't keep up with her, she's quick to get irritable and storm off so she can do whatever the hell she wants to do on her terms. Jess is one heck of a chatter box that doesn't like to enunciate her words, and even her closest friends have a hard time understanding her. OBTAINED: Lake Verity, Sinnoh. Swarm.

MAMMALS LAY EGGS?
Pokedex Name: #086, Seel ALIAS: Ena GENDER: Female ABILITY: Hydration EGG GROUP: Field & Water 1 NATURE: Timid PERSONALITY: She's easily overwhelmed at new situations and often scampers to hide behind the largest object she can find in response; typically hiding underneath Cider as a result. When that plan fails, she shuts herself off to the world by curling into the fetal position with her Rest technique. OBTAINED: Hatched at MCDC on 12/28, EM: Perish Song, Entrainment from b-day promo MOVE SET: Perish Song | Rest | Aqua Ring | Aqua Jet | Entrainment | Ice Shard | Encore
Pokedex Name: #209, Snubbull ALIAS: Gagaga Girl GENDER: Female ABILITY: Rattled EGG GROUP: Field, Fairy NATURE: Bold PERSONALITY: Fearless when it comes to survival, this Snubbull will easily put her pride aside and crawl into a dumpster if it means getting enough food to get her through the day. She has a habit of forgetting to groom herself, often scampering around with the intent to play and explore until she tires herself into a nap. As a result, her fur is often rough and in clumps, and growls and bites whenever Luella tries to groom her. OBTAINED: Johto, Ecruteak. Snubbull Swarm.

Pokedex Name: #300, Skitty ALIAS: Count Meow / The Count / Count GENDER: Female ABILITY: Cute Charm EGG GROUP: Field & Fairy NATURE: Jolly PERSONALITY: Catch phrase is "M'puuuuur". Especially fond of Luella's Igglybuff, Kiddo, who she sees as a fun to tease playmate.

Pokedex Name: #327, Spinda ALIAS: Dynamite Dragon / Dyna GENDER: Male ABILITY: Own Tempo EGG GROUP: Field / Human-like NATURE: Docile PERSONALITY: Often totters behind his mom like a clingy child. A total momma's boy. Dyna's pretty oblivious to Red's intimidating stares and thinks that hugging is the answer to most of the Watchog's problems, much to Red's annoyance. OBTAINED: Hatched 1/20. Bred w/ Illumise/Spinda MOVE SET: Baton Pass | Teeter Dance | Hypnosis | Wish
Pokedex Name: #359, Absol ALIAS: Vice Dragon / Vice GENDER: Female ABILITY: Pressure EGG GROUP: Field NATURE: Calm PERSONALITY: Vice doesn't mind the hustle of a crowd, but she's not one to appreciate having her personal space invaded. Luella's younger Pokemon often try to crawl all over her as if she's some kind of dog-pony, and while she tolerates it at first, she eventually shakes them off and jumps right on top of Cider, where no dirty little paws can reach her. She begrudgingly participates in Luella's breeding business, despite her desires to have a more productive lifestyle. OBTAINED: Trade from Vesta Dressler MOVE SET: Taunt | Swords Dance | Me First | Pursuit | Perish Song
Breeding Plan * Breed a Male to Pass on: Perish Song to Seel, Me First, Psycho Cut to Spinda, Night Slash, Future Sight, Q.Atk, Feint * Has a ton of EM have fun
Pokedex Name: #363, Spheal ALIAS: Joe the Pixie / Joe GENDER: Male ABILITY: Thick Fat EGG GROUP: Water 1 & Field NATURE: Quirky PERSONALITY: Joe casually rolls all over the place because learning how to walk frustrated him too much. He's a massive goofball that Luella spoils day and night, often letting the small Spheal sit on her lap for long, long naps whenever they're on the road. He's the biggest lap cat Luella knows. Has a hard time socializing with the rest of the Pokemon because his sense of humor doesn't click well with the rest. OBTAINED: From MCDC, hatched 12/28. EM: Belly Drum MOVE SET: Belly Drum | Defense Curl | Ice Ball | Rest
Pokedex Name: #531, Audino ALIAS: Peeping Goblin / Peep / Peepie GENDER: Male ABILITY: Healer EGG GROUP: Fairy NATURE: Careful PERSONALITY: Has trouble adapting to the clear lack of structure in his role as Luella's Pokemon. He enjoys being spoiled and pampered, but but easily jumps into a tizzy the moment he's left alone without an adult figure in sight. Peep is a sweet little thing that tries to please everyone in sight, but stresses himself to tears when gratitude isn't returned. OBTAINED: Harmonics Labs, Hatched on 10/31 MOVE SET: Sweet Kiss | Draining Kiss | Heal Pulse Simple Beam | Misty Terrain | Refresh
Breeding Plan * Can pass Simple Beam to Skitty * Can pass Heal Pulse to Cleffa, Igglybuff, Cherubi * Refresh to Marill, Spritzee
MONSTERS?! WHAT?!
Pokedex Name: #131, Lapras ALIAS: Fabled Leviathan / Fable GENDER: Male ABILITY: Shell Armor EGG GROUP: Monster & Water 1 NATURE: Bashful PERSONALITY: Appears to be standoffish at first because he has a difficult time interacting with strangers, but Fable is awfully shy, and he has an even harder time vocalizing his feelings. Most of the time he prefers to keep his problems to himself and shuts himself up before he can make a situation even worse. Adores watching fantasy movies with the group. OBTAINED: Hatched at MCDC on 12/23, EM: Curse/Ancient Power MOVE SET: Curse | Ancient Power | Perish Song | Ice Shard

Has a bad habit of taking things without asking first. Eats plants them throws them up a lot for god knows why. Fairly quiet and docile otherwise. Luella keeps Camula around as a pet because she reminds her of Danny and Larry. OBTAINED: Hoenn, Lilycove. MOVE SET: Roost | Agility | Aerial Ace | Water Pulse

Pokedex Name: #580, Ducklett ALIAS: Arnis, the Empowered Warrior GENDER: Male ABILITY: Keen Eye EGG GROUP: Water 1 & Flying NATURE: Lonely PERSONALITY: Once tried to take care of an egg, only to have it swallowed whole by a wild Ekans. Has trouble talking when he's frustrated, and is more likely to lash out than talk out his problems. He's quite fond of Neo the Togepi, and enjoys looking after Luella's eggs to ensure that none of her rowdier 'mons break them. He's a worrywart, and easily gets stressed out. Luella hopes to help him get over some of his insecurities about eggs. OBTAINED: Nue, Bayonada. MOVE SET: Water Gun | Defog | Brave Bird | Air Slash

You heard it through the grapevine, didn't you? The appeal of Pokemon with Hidden Abilities and Egg Moves had trainers practically stuffing dots in your shirt just so you can throw a few their way. It was a simple enough kind of deal. Raise a few Pokemon, sell them for profit, and as the cool kids say, 'zing', you're in the business.
