Douglas and Finley, the Teamed up Rivals!

Two childhood rivals that could never overcome one another, Douglas and Finley tied at the Johto League championships years ago. After that, they decided to join together and challenge other leagues. Working together surprisingly well, they conquered many leagues. After hearing about the PAX Pokemon League Douglas and Finley decided to see just how tough it actually was, and if their teamwork could hold a candle against the Pokemon World Tournament.

Wow, last of the Gym leaders. Well, these two like to fight together, and are pretty damn good at it. Usually their strategy comes down to fight or flight, but if you manage to divide them, you may be able to conquer them easier. And with that victory, comes the Rivals badge.

Strange place the Kid’s wandered into…

Kid’s in a mighty heap of trouble after rocketing out of Caelondia, been looking for a place to hang his hat, so to speak. And felt like Seattle was just the right mix of drear to bring back memories of home. Not too happy to find out about this “world tournament” thing, been a bit of a pacifist since watching his buddy zulf…well. we don’t need to talk about that.

PPL_Kai_2013Final

This guy’s awful quiet, he doesn’t speak much, but when he does he tends to mean it. He’s not too fond of fighting, and in fact has become quiet the gardener of late. You won’t be able to fight him for his badge, but if you find a way to prove your merit and strength of heart, you can be sure that he’ll hand over the Calamity Badge.

Jose the Hermit, challenges you to a ‘Dual’

Coming out of his forest hideaway on his yearly pilgrimage to PAX, Jose is here to test the bonds between people and their Pokemon. Secluding himself from society allowed Jose to form bonds of absolute trust between him, and his right, and left hand Pokemon. Rather than spreading the weight between  an entire team of six Pokemon, Jose is here to see if you are able to to place all the trust instead on just two.

PPL_Blackfox_2013Final

This guys a strange one, kid. He’ll only be bringing two Pokemon to the fray, but then, you have to as well. Balance is the key here, and if you think you’ve got what it takes to beat this dual master, you can earn yourself the Trust badgejose badge

Rustwyrm, the wandering ex-biker wanders into the PWT

Many years ago, someone stole Rustwyrm’s’ prize motorcycle, causing him to be kicked off Bicycle Bridge. He tracked the thief to the PAX Pokemon League, and has fought his way to the championships, in hopes of finding the thief and getting his motorcycle back.

PPL_Rustwyrm_2013Final

Look out Champ, even though he doesn’t have his motorcycle anymore, Rustwyrm still behaves like a Biker. Which means he uses primarily Poison Pokemon. Use Ground or Psychic attacks against him, and bring in Steel Pokemon to resist poison effects. But be careful, Rustwyrm still has some tricks up his sleeve. Also, watch out for Toxic and Toxic Spikes. If you manage to do this, you’ll get yourself the Wheel Badge (He’s not bitter, he swears!)

The (alleged) crime boss Giovanni joins the fray!

Giovanni, in spite of all his scheming, is still an accomplished pokemon trainer. (Or at least the people he bankrolls says he is) With his professed mastery over land, sea, and air, he uses his pokemon to provide a formidable challenge, a true test of their skills as a pokemon master! Not to be outdone by his “enthusiastic” ex-underling, Giovanni chose to enter the PWT to prove that might makes right!

 

PPL_Giovanni_2013 Final

That Giovanni, he seems to always come back for more! The Boss uses his power like a hammer, so don’t be a nail! Keep moving and out-think his brutes! If you can keep him grounded, you’ll get yourself the Earth badge!
