Well, you knew it was going to come at one point or another... Here's a place to show off your line-up, and explain a little about each if you want. Try to show them in order of importance, if you can. Level and stats are unnessesary, seeing as they may be unknown or you're currently playing through the game and it's constantly changing. To start, I'll do mine: (you'll notice my team consists mainly of Ferrety-Racoon-Feline Pokémon)
******************************************************************
.:Luke's Line-Up of DOOM!:.
Ketsife the Furret 
Nature: Calm
Ability: Keen Eye
Ketsife is my all-time Favorite Pokémon... she and I go back a long ways, to when I first got her, long, long ago... Long ago, when I was a kid, I secretly watched over two Furrets as they lived their lives, day in, day out, constantly keeping watch of them. One day, When I came back, I found out that they had an egg together! I was so pleased... Nothing much interesting happened for a while, but a couple weeks later, I noticed that they had both left temporarily to get food (or so I had assumed.) I waited and waited for their return, but they never did. Later, I found out that they were hunted killed by poachers for their fur! I was disgusted and apalled, and a little traumatized to tell the truth. In addition, the egg was left alone! So, a newfound unexplainable hate in my heart, I took the initiative, and kept the egg for myself, nurturing it to hatching it. When it did, I swore to the sky above that I would keep the baby, love it with all the love it should've gotten from it's parents, and one day Rhue the poachers who killed her parents, make them pay for what they've done... Now, after all of our trials and tribulations, we both have an inseperable friendship, which will last all of our days. Although she will openly deny it, I feel there is something going on between her and Hinoarashi...
Hinoarashi the Quilava 
Nature: Brave
Ability: Fire Wall
Hinoarashi was named so after the word's japanese meaning... "Cinder Quills". I would like to make it known that I did not obtain Hinoarashi from anyone, for free... I captured him myself, in a harsh wilderness. Actually, when I found him he was injured badly, and in need of immediate medical attention. He had huge gash wounds and was bleeding profusely. He had no will to fight or even move, so I was able to take him to the nearest Pokémon Center for treatment. When I next saw him, he had fully regained health, and was free to go again. I let him out, setting him free. Yet, as I left him, he followed me, and wanted to come with me and help me for the help I gave him. Now, we're great friends. Anyways, he is a master of flame techniques, and world-champion Beauty Contest Dominator. He is of a very brave nature, willing to take the hits for someone else, and defend what's right. Because of his fiery spirit, he's been able to take down foes I was sure he never could, and would withstand intense pains to do what was right... It appears that the beauty of his flames has affected Ketsife, but he would never admit to it.
[Unknown] the Zangoose Nature: Naughty
Ability: Immunity
[Unknown] is the Zangoose I caught a year or so back, but her name still remains a mystery to me... I was thinking of calling her Daina, but alas, the name didn't seem to stick. Anyways, she's a tough little kicker who takes nothing from no one... And the Blood stained fur on her paws should state just that. She's been known to focus her power into one fierce strike, and take down her foe in one swift movement, hitting them right where they're weakest. When I captured her, she resisted capture extremely well... it took numerous tries to contain her... yet, even after she was captured, she still retailiated against me, and would not do anything I requested. Yet, over time it has changed. While she has a slightly disposed attitude, she's become more accepting of me as of late. However, when me and my best friend Erik get together, we have to be very careful when we let out Pokémon out... if My Zangoose was ever within the scent range of his Seviper, woe is anyone caught in the bloodfeud. (The scar across her chest was caused by that very Seviper...)
Anyone want to suggest a good name for her? I'm listening!
Graedius the Linoone Nature: Serious
Ability: Pick-Up (Useless)
Graedius (wonder where you've heard that before?) happens to have become another member of my team because of his fierce battle integrity, and Ferrety-racoon-like nature. He's the most serious of the bunch, usually appearing deep in contemplation. Not much to say about his capture... I caught him as a Zigzagoon, because I thought he was just extremely sweet. And now, he's sweeter than ever. He is greatly vauled by me for his intense speed and intelligence. While he may not want it known, it seems that he and Ketsife seem to constantly have a favoritsim rivalry, both trying to outdo the other to appear more favorable in my eyes.
Maverick the Farfetch'd Nature: Relaxed
Ability: Keen Eye
Maverick, while being an active member of the team, seems a little out of place, being the only non-mammalic ferrety-raccon-feline creature. In addition, he is the weakest member of the team, even at the same level of experience. Nonetheless, he can very well hold his own in times of need, providing high powered attacks with an uncannily strong weapon... I bought him a Bamboo staff to replace his Leek, which suits him far better... He also has a rather cheery attitude, that keeps morale up in low times. Apparently, I found him after he had escaped from his old trainer, who was very violent and harsh... His self confiedence was permanently scared by that horrible trainer, and now needs to recover from his mental damage. He seems to be recovering nicely, however. He's become more normal and light of heart, as I said above.
******************************************************************
6th Pokémon = Who Knows?
Who knows, this is greatly up for debate... I was thinking maybe a Raichu, or an Espeon... ideas? Something thast goes along with my team-theme?
Well people, that's the tear-jerking story of my team of Poké's.
They may not have it all, but they've got heart.
Anyone else want to follow up? (you don't need to be so talkative about their backgrounds... I just like to do that. My Pokémon are just more than animals, more than tools...) So step right up and give it your all!
=]
You asked for a 6th suggestion, so I suggested...I ususally aim to have a well rounded team, so that would've been my choice. <=S Still, if a Fighting type hits you whilst you're Swords Dancing, it wouldn't be particularly good, would it? <=]
