Random fact about their past: Lucy’s love of serpentine Pokemon stems from her childhood, her mother was a researcher who studied reptiles and amphibian-like Pokemon.

Random likes/dislikes: Lucy likes boxing, she enjoys a morning at the gym, yet she dislikes getting bruised.

A random fact about their career/occupation: She wanted to be an elite 4 member, but the freedom available to a frontier brain was more tempting.

Random fact about their experience as a parent: Lucy and Brock rarely fight, but when it came to having kids, this was their most frequent and common argument. Lucy has never and never did want to have children and Brock gre up with a large family, hoping to one day have his own. Lucy eventually warned to the idea and they settled on having at least 2 kids.

Random fact about their past: The first recipe that Brock learnt to cook was ratatouille. This happens to be his daughter, Poppy’s, favourite food.

Random likes/dislikes: Brock actually dislikes porn books and erotica of any kind. Brock’ s favourite flowers are Poppies.

A random fact about their career/occupation: Brock actually studied human nutrition and health before he studied nutrition for Pokemon.

Random fact about their experience as a parent: Brock can’t cut hair. The one time he tried to trim his little siblings hair, half of them ended up having meltdowns over the state of their locks. He’s terrible at cutting hair and that hasn’t changed with age, his daughters won’t even let him touch their hair.

Random fact about their past: when she was very young, Misty’s father had a Tentacruel, she lovingly dubbed it as ‘bubbles.’ Bubbles was her best friend as a child and when her Father and his Pokemon went missing, she always remembered her childhood friend. Her love and adoration of tentacool and tentacruel comes from the kindness that Bubbles showed her.

Random likes/dislikes: Even though she hates peppers, she likes capsicum, (she thinks that the peppers taste different). Misty likes musk scented items.

A random fact about their career/occupation: Being chosen as Champion advisor was actually a mistake, Her name and Leaf’s had been accidentally put down on the wrong paperwork. Leaf was meant to be the champion advisor, and Mist was to be the Head of the Kanto Gmen. Leaf slipped into the role of Chief easily, and Misty surprisingly took to the job of advisor well.

Random fact about their experience as a parent: Solely raising her children, she’s seen a lot. But, she’s never been more surprised than the time her child literally stowed away in her bag to come on a trip with her.

Random fact about their past: Ash grew up thinking his Father had abandoned his family and as he was the one to name Ash, Ashura, he considered legally changing his name. He found out the truth before that decision was ever made, but before that it was a point of tension between Ash and his Mother (one of very few).

Random likes/dislikes: Ash likes eating jelly before it’s set (no he’s not just impatient, . Really. He’s not. No). Ash dislikes dandelions

(“There’s too much fluffy bits, there’s a reason they never make your wish come true, you can’t make one wish from lots of separate fluffy bits.”

Misty sweat dropped. “Ash, I don’t think that’s the point, it’s more like the act of blowing on the dandelion is what makes your wish—“

“That makes no sense!”

“Neither does wishing on a star, but people do that anyway,” Misty barked over him)

A random fact about their career/occupation: Politics goes over his head a lot of the time, but his secretary(s) (Conway and Gary(sorta)) make sure he knows what means what. He’s (unfortunately) quite knowledgeable about political science and how to talk to rich people. His favourite past-time at galas and events is to act like he’s not comprehending what everyone is saying and then interject with something really smart or to correct someone, just to see the looks on their faces.

Random fact about their experience as a parent: Ash has never really been available, his job keeps him away for almost the entire year, affording him nearly zero time with his family. However, the one time he was there for more than a day (when this oldest was 5) both of his kids got the flu. He was not a happy camper.

Random fact about their past: When he was young, he used to sit on the windowsill in his room and read. The first time he ever broke a bone was when he broke his leg from falling out of the window from two stories up), he got spooked by a taillow and slipped.

Random likes/dislikes: He likes eating frozen fruit. He dislikes the texture of porridge.

A random fact about their career/occupation: He decided to become a kindergarten teacher, after tagging along with Solidad to teach a group of kids about coordinating. Drew enjoyed how bright and fun the children were and he enjoyed how free he felt when he was playing outside with them, as opposed to being in a stuffy office like the one his Father works in.

Random fact about their experience as a parent: Drew’s by no means dumb, but he can’t for the life of him figure out how to put a diaper on a child.

( “it’s a diaper Andrew, not rocket science.”

Drew growled at Gary in response, one hand holding Tim and the other securing the diaper on backwards.

Gary sighed. “You’ll get it eventually”

He never did. 4 kids later.)

Random fact about their past: Gary used to unconsciously use his psychic powers in his sleep. He once levitated everything in the house and then teleported most of it It into the lake.

Random likes/dislikes: Gary hates the smell of rubber, absolutely detests it. He likes vegemite on crumpets.

A random fact about their career/occupation: his first day as a teacher consisted of:

Being puked on in the parking lot by a sick kid,

Forgetting his laptop (even though he has a near eidetic memory, honestly Gary),

Being pranked by a co-worker (accidentally of course, the prank wasn’t meant for him),

Having to finish the rest of the day in slushy soaked clothes (courtesy of the prank) as he had no spare clothes.

And getting home, only to realise that he stepped in gum and now it’s stuck to the carpet in his lounge.

Random fact about their experience as a parent: Gary learnt how to cook when he had kids, he dedicated the toddler years of his first child’s life to learning how to cook for when they’re older. (And because he realised that he can’t keep living on takeout whenever Drew isn’t home)
