Hypnos appears to the majority of people in their dreams, mostly as an ‘angelic’ young man covered in a variety of flora known to induce hypnosis. He is a curious and friendly god, normally using people’s dreams as a means of learning about humans and communicating with them, though he isn’t above messing with someone’s dreamscape if they anger him, even going so far as to kill them in their sleep if they’ve scorned him deeply. For those who are lucky enough to see him in his ‘human overworld’ form /the smaller drawing/, they always describe the encounter as him having an ‘extraordinarily calming aura’, able to quell even the most enraged of people just by being in the nearby area, so much so that most people normally fall asleep within the first few minutes of exposure, though these ‘sleep spells’ are very short- similar to taking a quick nap.  It is said that those who can stay awake for more than a couple minutes while being near Hypnos will be granted a years worth of peaceful sleep, and can expect quite a few visits from him in their dreams during that time..

Diego is the older son of the famous shiny pokemon researcher /and crime lord/ Dio Brando, though most people don't know of his origins. He's always been somewhat of a rebel, which resulted in the family practically disowning him and wanting nothing to do with him. At the first opportunity he could get, he ran away from the family estate to make a living on his own, taking a shiny charmander he bonded with from his father's lab with him as his partner. As he traveled over the region he began to gather pokemon that people abandoned or ones that seemed pretty scary/fierce that others wouldn't touch, creating a very fearsome team. This caused him to get noticed by a local gang of thugs who just wanted to rough him up and take his pokes, but they ended up getting their asses handed to them. This piqued the interest of the group leader, who then allowed him to join the team as vice-leader, which Diego accepted /mostly because he had nowhere else to go and felt among fellow people here/, and as a gift for his new position, the Leader gave him a Gible to raise as his own, thinking he'd be the perfect one to tame it. He is now known as 'Terrorsaur' among both the group and the surrounding towns, feared and admired by all for his brute strength in battle.

Giorno is the youngest son of the famous shiny pokemon researcher /and crime lord/ Dio Brando. While he was the most favorited son, it didn’t stop the rest of his ‘family’ from hurting and abusing the boy during his younger years. He was rarely allowed to go outside and interact, so his only friends were the pokemon in his father's lab /one of them being a shiny persian/. On one of his rare trips outside, he discovered a chikorita that was being bullied by a group of kids. Not really knowing what to do or how to get them to stop, he threw himself infront of the chikorita and protected it from an incoming attack. The group of kids were shocked, but didn't stop, deciding to make him a target of their games. It wasn't until the pokemon itself decided to stand up and protect the boy that it made the kids finally leave. The two had a sudden connection with each other in that moment, and even though he wasn't allowed to, decided to take the chikorita home with him and hide it. This didn't last long however, and along with being punished the chikorita was taken from him. Finally having enough of this treatment and recently learning about his mother, he manages to take back his 'partner' chikorita and run away from the household and flee to his mother's place in hopes of a safe place /the persian also comes along with him/. He makes it to her home in the countryside, and while atfirst skeptical of his sudden arrival, his birth mother takes him in and raises him. Giorno grows up much happier than he ever has been, playing with all the nearby pokemon that lived in the surrounding forests and helping his mother tend to them, as well as helping run her ranch. This lasts until he's old enough to leave on a pokemon adventure, which at the age of 14 he decides to finally partake in, taking his two partner pokes and some of the other pokemon he bonded with, he sets out on his journey with one major goal in mind; to try and take down his father's crime ring and free the pokemon he's experimented on. Along the way he also takes any pokemon he finds that want to join him /he normally persuades them instead of catching them since he's able to somewhat communicate with them/ especially ones that were abandoned or abused, letting them live happier lives at his mother’s ranch.

Diego: Species: Basilisk A large snake-like creature much more potent than its normal counterparts, they’re known to be the ‘King’ of serpents and have quiet an attitude. Be especially wary of its gaze, for once you’re in its sights you’ll be turned to stone in a matter of seconds. Another note is to stay away from its mouth, for deadly venom runs through its fangs and one strike can prove instantly fatal. Abilities: Able to turn targets to stone with a glance (though this can be controlled by Diego around people he likes, it’s still advised not to look into his eyes for too long), as well as poisonous saliva that, once inside a body, will kill almost on contact.
