- Mundane Made Awesome: He's a pizza delivery boy who became a master Pokemon trainer.
- Token Adult: Of the hosts as a whole. Paul is the first host the Voices have inhabited who is at or past the legal drinking age. Naturally, they have him buy copious amounts of beer regularly, possibly because they want to party.

Paul's Team
—————
————— the Venusaur (Venusroar, DAAAsh, Dashasaur)
Paul's starter. Originally named AAA.- Green Thumb
- No Inside Voice: The interpretation of his original name was that she was always screaming. When she was renamed to a series of dashes, it was interpreted as her yelling getting so loud that it was no longer audible to the human ear. Or, alternatively...
- Samus Is a Girl: On Day 10, the party's genders were revealed. Despite the starter lines all skewing heavily towards being male, Dash was discovered to be female.
AJJJJJJaaa
AJJJJJJaaa]] the Golem (Biggest Stick [formerly Bigger Stick, Stick])
Paul's first capture. Originally named STTqPkPk.., which is where her nickname came from. Evolved to Graveler on Day 2, with her nickname changing to match. -PkPkPkPkPkPkPk)(
-PkPkPkPkPkPkPk)(note the Crobat (PK Bat, Godbat, Critbat)
A Zubat caught early in the game. He struggled a lot as a Zubat, but with perseverance became Paul's strongest Pokémon and was eventually allowed to evolve to Crobat, something that the Mob's last Golbat never did.- The Alcoholic: Fresh Water is replaced by beer in this hack, and Golbat ended up receiving the most. There were also jokes that Bucklett left the party to end up in AA.
- Took a Level in Badass: From a weak Zubat that only knew how to use Leech Life to the strongest member of the team, by far.
AAAAAAAAFF
AAAAAAAAFF the Golduck (Aflac, Affleck)
A Psyduck captured on Day 3. Since Paul's original team of six lacked Surf capabilities, an effort was made to withdraw her immediately, sending Actor the Porygon to the PC.- Animal-Themed Superbeing: Her alter ego is the GolDuck. PK Bat points out that he was already a Crobat by this point, but she refuses to change costumes.
- Making a Splash
BBbkkkkk
BBbkkkkk the Sylveon (Burger King)
A Sylveon evolved from an Eevee acquired from the Prize Corner on Day 4. If she were allowed to level up to Level 20 before being given an Evolution Stone or the Magic Wandnote , it would have become an Espeon. However, the Magic Wand was successfully used.- Edible Theme Naming: Also continues a run of food-related names: Burrito and Nacho are obvious and Scumbreon was also known as Taco, while Sam had his Kanto Krispy Kremes and Lampeon evolved from fried chicken.
- Face of an Angel, Mind of a Demon: Fanon has her being pure evil. This interpretation was almost immediate, and likely stems from the fact that her name references a franchise of burger restaurants while his trainer is associated with pizza delivery.
- Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: Whether it's in-battle or in fanon, she hasn't had much success. The former eventually changed, though.
- Recurring Element: How many times has an Eeveelution been relevant to a TPP run? There's Martyr, Burrito, Solaireon, Baeporeon, Feereon, Lampeon, Nacho, Scumbreon, Sergeant Doom, Fox... And you could argue for a couple more, like Sam from Anniversary Red (minor impact in-stream, but still a surprisingly popular topic for lore) and the XD starter. Regardless, it's in the double-digits.
- Samus Is a Girl: Like the starter lines, the Eevee line has a 7:1 male:female ratio, and like Dash, Burger "King" turned out to be female.
- Sweet Tooth: Also characterized thusly, as just about every time Rare Candies were bought, at least one ended up going to her.
BKKTTTTTTT
BKKTTTTTTT the Dugtrio (Bucket/Bucklett)
A Diglett captured early in the game, in the same cave as Zubat, and thought to be his best friend. Was left in the Daycare on Day 3, but eventually retrieved and allowed to reach the Hall of Fame on Day 11.- Call-Back: Its most common depiction is being carried through the sky in its bucket by Zubat.◊ This is not the first time the usually ground-bound Diglett family has taken flight in TPP.
- Dishing Out Dirt
- Heterosexual Life-Partners/Platonic Life-Partners: Usually depicted this way with Godbat; which one it is is unclear since Bucket wasn't in the party when their genders were revealed.
- Put on a Bus/The Bus Came Back: Left the party early on, but proved popular enough to be retrieved in the postgame.
On Standby
AAA-(((TRR
AAA-(((TRR the Porygon (QRST, Actor)
- Our Monsters Are Different: In Pokemon Brown, Porygon and its evolutions are retconned into being Abnormal-type.
[[........
[[........ the Beedrill (Fletchizard, Silent Haze, Hazy, Brackets, Bee)
A seemingly normal Beedrill that as a Kakuna, the display thought it was a Fletchinder and a Level 0 Charizard. Naturally, the chat believes this to be the latest incarnation of OLDEN. Was originally nicknamed HZZZZZZyyy.- The Load: Was so underleveled compared with the rest of the party that the mob was forced to spend several hours gambling in order to level it up with Rare Candies.
- Unfortunately, grinding later on on that day put Bee back into this position, forcing the mob to put extra time into grinding it again.
- History Repeats: Just like in Anniversary Red, a Kakuna is caught early on and causes strife due to its inability to attack. Overall, it's the fourth time that the party contained a member of the Weedle family on Day 1.note
- Ominous Visual Glitch: First the display says it's a Level 0 Charizard and a Fletchinder, but when it evolved into Beedrill, the display has a broken image instead.
