DAY 1: Pokemon Trainer

Testing, Testing. Test- oh, you're awake.
Nnnn... Merlin? What are you- ... eh? Where are we?
Well, you see, I was told you need a variety of magic training and experience in other worlds, so I made a contract with a basic girl to kill two birds with one stone.
That doesn't actually explain anything, you know...
S'alright, Douglas. You'll get the hang of it. Here, take this and figure out what you want.
... Can't we just go home and do this? And besides, why isn't-
Like I said, it's all part of a contract. Basically. And also you can't use any magic. Yet.
... Okay then.

Age: 12
... is this normal?
Yes. Don't ask questions.
Okay...
Location: Johto
It's not Hoenn, but at least it's not Orre.
Background: Small Town
Seems close enough to what I'm used to! ... Used to be.

Free Things:
-A Bag
     (I don't really need this-)
     (I know a hammerspace is kind of your thing, but you can't use magic yet.)
     (... Oh. Right.)
-A "Pokegear"
-A Completed Pokedex
-Pokeballs (Five)
-Potions (Three)
-A Hat.
     (Here Merlin, you can keep this.)
     (... Thanks.)
-A Starter
     (... This one is a normal type. I'll take it!)
     (Eevee, huh? How basic.)


Drawbacks:
-Silenced (+100 CP)
     (Hey, um, Merlin, when does this take eff-............................)
     (Hehehe. Let's see, what else....)
-Marked (+200 CP)
     (Seems pretty fitting, since we're obviously some kind of anomaly here. Not that norms 
     would know.)
     (??)

Perks and Items:
-Psionics (-600 CP)
     (Thanks for making this a necessity, Merlin...)
     (What's with the sarcasm? It's a simple thing to know. For the aesthetic.)
-Aura (-600 -300 CP) 
     (And this is closer to traditional magic, so I'll take this.)
-Champ in the Making (-300 CP)
-50k Pokedollars (-50 CP)
-A Medkit (-50 CP)

That should be satisfactory, I think.
Okay, my turn.
What do you mean-


Age: 15
... is this normal?
No.
Then how...??
Wouldn't you like to know?
Location: Orre
H e l l .
Background: Drop-In

Free Things:
-A Bag 
-A "Pokegear"
-A Completed Pokedex
-Pokeballs (Five)
-Potions (Three)
-A Hat.
     (Here, Doug. This is yours now.)
     (...)
-A Starter
     (?????)

Drawbacks:
     (Wait a second, wait a second, why did you chose my drawbacks if you pick your own??)
     (You didn't stop me.)
-Marked (+200 CP)
     (There. You're not alone anymore.)
-Cursed (+200 CP)
     (It's bad luck because Ghosts.)
     (Rude...)
     (Ghosts pokemon, not people.)

Perks and Items:
-Out of Region Starter (-200 CP)
     (I want Zorua.)
     (But wouldn't it be more efficient to...?)
     (ZORUA.)
-Blend-In (-300 -150 CP)
     (Isn't that what you already do...?)
-Savant (-600 -300 CP)
     (It's perfect memory and mental calculation. You know, what I already do~)
-Aura (-600 CP)
-Headsets (-100 CP)
     (I'm being nice this time. Whenever we'll meet again. We really should go to Hoenn though.)
     (Kalos seems nice...)
     (Anglo-French trash.)
-Rebreather (-50 CP)
     (I'm going to Hoenn one way or another.)

... Are... are we done?
Yep. See you in however many years, try not to get caught by the police, I'm going for a swim.

    4. Oh my god we're definitely going to a Holy Grail War next Douglas just try and stop me. -M.

      Er... he's usually like that.
      It's possible you have! Our family has a history, but to be honest I think everyone blows it out of proportion.
      Either way, um, I'm glad to hear that. I wish you luck in your, uh, war. - Douglas Shard.

    5. Holy Grail Wars aren't all that fun. I had an arrow in me.

      A history, huh? Is that right? And thank you. I'll need all the luck in the world to get out of my current predicament.
