Yeah, yeah. Got my Pokemon team here ready to be drawn. Plus my trainer.
Name: Jericho Newman
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Looks:
If you were told to pick three people out on a busy street who's faces you would recognize instantly, Jericho Newman would not be one of them. Her short, choppy blonde hair is highlighted by a few simple red streaks, and her eyes are a plain-jane hazel. Her skin is just dark enough to be considered tan, and she has dozens of freckles. Perhaps her most notable feature is the one she hides; a tattoo of two bats circling each other on her left shoulder blade.
Let's go back to the street. If you were told to pick based on clothes, Jericho would likely be your first choice. She designs many of her own shirts, scarves, and jewelry using bright colors and glowing gems. Her favorite outfit is rather simple though. A white, short sleeve, button up blouse with an orange-red scarf tied around her waist, ending in dark blue flared jeans. For colder weather she has a faux Tauros-skin jacket lined with sheared Mareep wool. She is always wearing a silver chain necklace with charms of her beloved Pokemon.
History:
Born in Slateport City, Jericho is the third of five children of a wealthy merchant family. She never traveled far from the city's gates; Mauville is as close to the world as she got. She dreamed of adventure, however, and soon found out that Professor Oak from Kanto was hosting a contest. Eagerly, Jericho signed up, competing against dozens of other young people at the chance of a lifetime.
Her prayers were answered when she received a letter saying that she had been accepted as Slateport's representative. The girl, surprised but ecstatic, hopped aboard the next ship to Vermillion. There, she met the chairman of the Fan Club and he allowed her to use his Fearow to get to Pallet. Upon arrival, she was presented with a choice. She ended up choosing Charmander, and christened him Mercury. Soon the pair were hopping from one region to the next, capturing four more Pokemon along the way and strengthening their bond together.
Personality:
To go with her hobby is an equally artistic and relaxed temperment. She almost never makes a fuss over anything and takes the motto "Don't outsmart your common sense" to heart.
While she is a competent battler, her true love lies in contests. Her first one, in Slateport, was a complete and utter failure, but she loved every minute. Since then she has been to numerous towns, mainly in Hoenn, to show off.
Music plays an extremely large part in her life, and influences even her contests. Each of Jericho's Pokemon has a favorite song, and she tries to choreograph their attacks to the beat. It gets kinda hard or repetitive after a while, however, so they try to switch songs after a month or two's worth of appearances.
Jericho is not perfect, however. She is extremely tuned in to the emotions of those close to her, and if they have any kind of negative vibe it ends up being reflected in herself. She can also get a rather harsh tongue, especially if she is witness to any kind of physical or verbal abuse to either Pokemon or people.
Other: That's about word for word to what it was. ._. My fingers hurt. XD

Species: Charmeleon
Gender: Male
Nickname: Mercury
Acess.: Purple flames, Everstone capped teeth.
While Charmeleon are notoriously bad-tempered, Mercury only acts like it. He's really a big softy, and is constantly mentally apologizing to his opponents in battle. Mercury is also like a big brother to Jupiter, though the two rarely get along.
Contest Song: Dynamite - Taio Cruz
--
Species: Rattata
Gender: Female
Nickname: Mars
Acess.: Golden bands all up tail
The superstitious team member, Mars keeps her distance from all things black, ladders, and mirrors. She is not a battler, per say, but more of a designated Contestee.
Contest Song: Run The World (Girls) - Beyonce
--
Species: Sneasel
Gender: Female
Nickname: Venus
Acess.: Blue feathers
Let's just say she's a female Romeo and leave it at that, hm?
Contest Song: On The Floor - Jennifer Lopez
--
Species: Houndour
Gender: Male
Nickname: Jupiter
Acess.: None
Though he has only recently hatched, Jupiter has already proven himself to be a strong fighter, employing not just teeth but claws already as well. He is also an instigator and loves picking fights. Despite his aggressive behavior, though, he is extremely loyal.
Contest Song: Monster - Skillet
--
Species: Flygon (Shiny)
Gender: Male
Nickname: Saturn
Acess.: Black bandanna tied around right arm
Saturn has a good heart, but he can be a little bit of a prankster. He has gone so far as to anger Mars, so she played a little joke of her own. Then Saturn had to comeback, and so the war went until the Flygon got so fed up he tied the cloth around his arm simply to keep her at bay. So far Mars is the only one of the team to anger him this much.
Contest Song: Numb Encore - Linkin Park/Jay-Z
--
Species: Mew
Gender: Male
Nickname: Pluto
Acess.: Tear shaped patch of black fur at base of skull
Tired of people constantly referring to him as a her, he has tried numerous times to prove his masculinity. Sure his bubbles are pink, but entire football teams have pink gloves or shoes during Breast Cancer Awareness month, right? Being chosen by the elders has boosted his confidence, however, and he hopes to prove his macho-manliness. And help stop Team Rocket, but whatever.
Contest Song: All Star - Smash Mouth

I included ALL of that so you have a good general idea of what they're like. Bonus points if you can incorporate their songs into the picture. :D -shot-
Prizes, prizes...
First gets this Cyid I've got that I really forgot the name of... It's a nattie though.
Second gets two of these Silvers, Ketron and Silvertide. A Draqua and Sirleon.
I did this on impulse. Don't judge.
If you have questions, please let me know.
