History Characters / PokemonFestivalOfChampions

* DarkAndTroubledPast: To say that Pikachu's life before meeting Red was unpleasant is an ''Understatement''. Thanks to a birth defect, he was unable to release electricity, leaving him an outcast. He was eventually caught by a {{spoiler:Team Rocket member}}, who he loved enough to evolve. Unfortunately he still couldn't use electric attacks, which ,ade his first Trainer brutally beat him. It gets worse from there.
* ShockAndAwe: An electric type with access to moves like Thunder, Thunderbolt, and Volt Tackle.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Well, Red and Blue must still be friends with him for "some" reason... He takes care of his pokemon, and Espeon's memories show a trainer who was genuinely kind and encouraging.

* OurGhostsAreDifferent: Found living in Lavender Tower, but it's not the same kind of ghost as Cubone's mother, not does it enjoy scaring or bothering humans. It seems to be an ordinary, sweet Pokemon. However, it "does" have power over dreams and can trap someone inside one, using the move "Nightmare".

* InsistentAppellation: He calls Misty 'senpai' despite being older, and her telling him he doesn't need to.

--> "She who rules the battlefield wins the battle... **and I rule the skies!**

* BreakHerHeartToSaveHer: He CLAIMS he traded Eevee to Blue because it wouldn't fight anymore after the death of its friend... but the way he greets Espeon? He still cared about it. He just knew he couldn't give it the support it needed to recover from the trauma.

* TheRival: Only one of the most iconic ones ever!
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Well, Red and Blue must still be friends with him for SOME reason... He takes care of his pokemon, and Espeon's memories show a trainer who was genuinely kind and encouraging.

* BunnyEarsLawyer: Is clearly ditzy and distractible, getting on Misty's case about Red being her boyfriend and getting into an argument with a guy who doesn't speak Japanese. Seen using strange or embarrassing tactics (using Cute Charm and Substitute); showboating; comparing the battle to Poke-Star Studios' Movies... and yet, Skyla sees through her giddy excitement to a trainer who absolutely knows what she is doing.

* TheHeart

* HeroOfAnotherStory : She has had just as difficult and emotional a journey as any, and her attempt to rise through the ranks of the Indigo League and prove herself to her inspiration, her [[OneSidedRivalry: one-sided rival]] Lorelai on a worthy stage... gets cut short when she loses to the protagonist in the first round.
