RIRI [Riolu] – Found washed ashore with no memory of how he got there or what came before, everything about the world felt off to him, recently being found by Zippy and joining a guild with him.

AGE: ??? (Above 18, unknown age) Riri isn’t timid in the usual sense, there’s no inherent fear in him, but rather a constant caution, like he’s bracing for something that he can’t remember.

He rarely speaks, not because he has nothing to say, but because he’s always unsure if he SHOULD speak. Still, when he does act, when he chooses to stand his ground, it’s deliberate and unwavering. There’s a hint of resolve in him that hasn’t fully surfaced yet, like something waiting to be remembered.

Riri's "Aura sensing" is different from Other Riolu/Lucario, in that he always sees the aura of things 5 seconds ahead of where they normally are. this let's him predict things, but it disorients him a bit, so he doesn't use it often.

to use Aura sensing, Riri must close his eyes. Aura is colored white, and is shaped like the living being that has it.

Inanimate objects cannot have Aura.

Riolu species general info: Riolu are a small, blue, canine Pokémon. It has a black torso and legs, a blue tail, and a yellow collar. It has rounded bumps on the backs of its forepaws. It has a black "mask" and red eyes. It stands on its toes instead of its entire foot. It is sensitive to a special type of energy called Aura; however, it does not have the ability to fully use these powers, although it can still emanate these waves to communicate and sense them, albeit only in ripples. It has developed two black appendages that hang down from its head, which rise when Riolu reads or manipulates aura.

Riri's only defining feature from other riolu is his silver bowtie that he keeps on his satchel.

ZIPPY [Shinx] – Zippy can be described as energy given form. Always moving, always thinking, always pushing forward like stopping simply isn’t an option. He doesn’t just rush in blindly, there’s instinct behind it, a kind of natural timing that lets him slip into openings the moment they appear. And more often than not, those openings are created by Riri.

Zippy He talks alot, and also pushes often, not in a forceful way, but in a constant, unrelenting belief that things will work out. He doesn’t overthink like Riri does. Doesn’t get stuck on the unknown. If something’s confusing, he’ll just run at it until it makes sense.

Zippy notices the way Riri watches instead of speaks. Notices the way he holds back, the way he second-guesses. And instead of calling it out, Zippy just... stays. Keeps including him. Keeps dragging him into conversations, into missions, into moments Riri might’ve avoided on his own. Not because he thinks Riri is weak—but because he knows Riri just needs someone who won’t leave him behind.

To Zippy, Riri isn’t “timid.” He’s steady. Careful. Reliable in a way Zippy himself isn’t. Where Zippy is fast and explosive, Riri is the one who makes sure they don’t fall apart.

Zippy doesn’t say it in complicated ways. He doesn’t need to.

“Hey dude, you keep looking back like you’ve lost something... but I think that you just haven’t caught up to yourself yet, heh.”

Shinx species apearance: Shinx is a quadrupedal, feline Pokémon resembling a lion cub or lynx kitten. Its front half is light blue, while the rear is black. There is a short tuft of fur on its head and smaller tufts on each cheek. The top tuft is smaller on the female Shinx. It has large, oval ears with yellow, star-shaped markings on the insides; yellow eyes; and a tiny, red nose. Whenever its mouth is open, small fangs can be seen in its upper jaw. A black marking encircles Shinx's neck like a collar, and there are yellow bands above its forepaws. The hind paws are black on the male Shinx and blue on the female. Spiked fur surrounds the base of its long tail, which is tipped with a yellow star shape.

Electricity is produced by the extension and contraction of muscles in Shinx's forelegs, which causes this Pokémon's fur to glow. If it senses danger, its fur can gleam brightly to blind predators so it can flee. Excited trembling is a sign that Shinx is generating tremendous amounts of electricity. It can send signals to other Shinx by shining the tip of its tail and shaking it.

Zippy has no features that define him from other shinx. so it's entirely up to recognizing his personality.
