Colress

Magnezone
Modest nature with Analytic ability
Slow and observant, Colress' Magnezone is a key player for him when battling with other Pokémon. It also sees a fair amount of use as a scout in difficult-to-access areas and is useful for intercepting or simply reading data from various kinds of signals.

While Magnezone is certainly protective of Colress to a degree, it is far more protective of its best friend, Klinklang.


Beheeyem
Male, Quiet nature with Telepathy ability
A very calm Pokémon very much in tune with his trainer, it really isn't much of a surprise to anyone that he was Colress' first partner. He was found as a terribly lost and confused little Elgyem when his trainer was just a boy -- Colress was just so fascinated that he begged his mother to let him keep him. There is thought to be a mental link between the both of them, as Beheeyem can be seen carrying out orders with only just a nod given in his general direction. This is best seen during battles.

He can also be seen helping his trainer out with any projects he may be dealing with. Though often confined within his capsule, he breaks out within an instant should Colress find himself in a spot of serious trouble.


Klinklang
Modest nature with Minus ability
He met it around the same time as his Magnezone back when both were in their basic, unevolved forms. It gets along best with the aforementioned Magnezone and honestly sort of relies on its presence to help it pay attention. It has a bad habit of daydreaming, easily getting lost within its own thoughts, and loves balloons. Popping its Air Balloon in battle will make it sad.


Porygon-Z
Timid nature with Adaptability ability
Colress' second-received Pokémon... that apparently was left behind by his father. It was a terribly aggressive little thing, but incredibly powerful at the same time, which he decided to test hands-on in battle against the wild Pokémon outside of his home. Much to his surprise, it became steadily less aggressive the more they trained together, then one day revealed its true colours as a timid, but incredibly loyal creature after he'd wandered off into the Relic Forest of Agate Village. He hasn't seen anything like that in any Pokémon ever since, though he did hear stories much later on about some amazing trainers in Orre having encountered similar specimens. Perhaps it hadn't been an entirely unique experience to him after all.

It's since evolved twice. Colress was not even aware that Porygon2 was capable of evolution, but it took a shine to the strange disc he'd found and stashed away to research later, and subsequently used it. Too bad it was harbouring malicious code! He found a way to stabilize most of the eccentricities caused by the wayward programming at least, and continues to use it to directly hack into all manner of computer-based obstacles.


Metagross
Adamant nature with Clear Body ability
Does most of the heavy lifting, be it literally or during battle. Once it sets its mind to something, it is very difficult to stop it. It will also happily serve as transport for Colress should he ever wish such a thing. Metagross doesn't appear to like Beheeyem very much, but it's thought to be out of jealousy of his closeness to their trainer than due to any perceived personality flaws.


Rotom
Bold nature with Levitate ability
A mischievous little Pokémon, sure, but still very much invaluable as a partner in both battling and technological endeavours. In its more cooperative moods, it will run errands given to it, often inhabiting some kind of tech in order to fulfill said errand or simply for reconnaissance reasons. It also works alongside Porygon-Z when asked to help hack into various things, be they firewalls, computerized locks, or anything else of that nature.

It's tricky and may not be entirely tame, but it appears to respect Colress and the boundaries he sets well enough.

Lusamine
The current President of the Aether Foundation and Colress' half-sister. They appear to have a pretty good relationship with each other, interacting amicably with one another. He does feel as though they've become a bit distant ever since he got caught up with Team Plasma, however.

Mohn
Lusamine's husband and father of Gladion and Lillie. He hasn't seen him in such a long time, though he supposes that's not all that unusual, what with him having disappeared into an Ultra Wormhole some odd years back. He was a pretty friendly guy, from what he remembers, and he know his sister loved him very much. He's not entirely sure, but he swears he's seen a guy that looks exactly like him on some weird chain of islands not too far off from Akala Island...

Gladion & Lillie
He doesn't even know if those two remember him. Until recently, the last time he saw them, they were still very little... he remembers when Lillie was still just a baby. Oh well. He doesn't have time to babysit, anyway. Maybe they can catch up later.

Faba
The former Branch Chief of the Aether Foundation. His arrogance is annoying. Demoting him to intern after that whole Rainbow Rocket affair was too good for him, in his opinion. With that said, he is very bright and interesting to talk to, once his ego is pushed out of the way. Could still use a lesson or two in humility, though.

Looker
The INTERPOL agent assigned to the Team Plasma case. Colress gave him a hard time trying to track him down and made things even more difficult by proving a slippery catch.

"Forgiving to a fault" is what Colress thinks is the best way to describe him. But he guesses he should be thankful, considering that the detective's partner wanted to keep him locked up indefinitely.

Ghetsis
The leader of Team Plasma. Colress doesn't like to talk about him.
