Taunie has a bright and expressive face that perfectly captures her energetic personality. She has striking blue eyes—though she's winking in her usual confident pose—and a wide, cheerful smile that radiates enthusiasm.

She has a slim and athletic build, suggesting agility and energy, fitting for a Pokémon Trainer who's always on the move. Her stance exudes confidence, with one hand resting on her hip and the other holding a Poké Ball, as if she's always ready for a battle. Her body language reflects both determination and friendliness, typical of a skilled but approachable Trainer. Her outfit is stylish and practical, blending casual comfort with fashionable flair. She wears a light brown jacket over a cropped red turtleneck, paired with white shorts secured by a belt that has a circular buckle design.

A key detail is the Mega Ring on her left wrist, a symbol of her capability to use Mega Evolution in battle, highlighting her experience and strength as a Trainer.

Urbain: Urbain lives and works inside of Hotel Z (located in Lumiose City, Kalos) at both the front desk and in promoting the hotel. He is the founding member of Team MZ - standing for Mega Evolution and Hotel Z - with his fellow members Taunie, Naveen, and Lida. He's originally from the Unova region, having moved to Lumiose with his twin sister (Taunie) to find their grandmother after their moms passing. Urbain has a bright, animated presence, marked by a slim, youthful build and an expressive, carefree posture. His facial expression is open and exuberant, with wide eyes and a broad, playful grin that immediately conveys enthusiasm and charm. Slightly flushed cheeks and raised brows add to his energetic demeanor, making him appear constantly in motion both physically and emotionally. His light-colored hair is tousled and swept to the side, framing his face in a way that enhances his lively, spontaneous personality.

Naveen: Naveen is a member of Team MZ, which he joined in return for studio space. He is an aspiring fashion designer, slowly earning a reputation in Luminose City as a designer shrouded in mystery as he doesn't show his identity. His partner pokemon is Scraggy. He is not fond of battling. Naveen is quite an independent and private individual. He initially expresses disinterest in opening up to his teammates or getting involved in their business, and he often downplays or justifies gestures he makes toward them. He speaks formally, often makes dry remarks, and can be quite opinionated, being described by Lida as particular about certain things, such as food. Over time, however, he warms up and becomes a supportive member of Team MZ. He is a Luminose City native, so the other members of Team MZ rely a lot on his knowledge of the city. Despite his usual seriousness, Naveen shows a more excitable side when talking about his hobbies, which include fashion and watching Canari's livestreams. He's quite a fan of Canari, however he isn't a member of her fan club, DYN4MO. He can become quite flustered at times over his hobbies. He is very good in sewing and seems to like gifting handmade items and clothes to his teammates, such as Lida's pouch and the Team MZ flag in the dining room. Naveen originally lived with his grandmother and younger sister, the former of whom disapproves of his interest in sewing and wants him to focus on his studies. One day she threw out his sewing supplies, prompting an upset Naveen to wander Luminose City until he was recruited into Team MZ by Urbain and Taunie
