Judy Richards, 14, girl, Oldale Town

Judy has tan skin, hazel eyes, and dyed-black hair (natural color dirty blonde) that she keeps in a Kalos (French) braid. She looks a little chubby for her height, but it's OK cause she's an endomorph. She's usually wearing a gold blouse, a blue-gray skirt over black bike shorts, and remarkably clean brown ankle boots.

Judy is fairly concerned with how others perceive her, and so works to look/dress her best every day. Given that she spends most of every day outside training, this effort has had uneven results. (She particularly loathed Jagged Pass and Route 113.) Furthermore, she believes that battles should display not only a Pokémon's power/tactical ability, but its grace as well. A lot of her favorite teammates are "speed-based" for just that reason; Walter, Elias, Anna, and to a lesser extent Katherine.

Her dad works at the Poké Mart in Oldale, and her mom is "between jobs". Judy makes sure some of the money she earns goes back to her family every month. Her next destination (in Hoenn, anyway) is Fortree City and the Feather Badge. [Author's note: She fought Norman third, Wattson fourth, and Flannery fifth. This is possible because she's not the "main character". For purposes of the tournament, she isn't involved with Wally's arc, either.]

(all moves and abilities are ORAS accurate)
Katherine (Swablu)
Calm nature, highly curious
--Mirror Move
--Safeguard
--Mist
--Astonish
Katherine is a fairly recent addition to the team, caught on Route 115 and added after Judy's battle with Flannery left Franklin the Swellow too injured to fly. She has proved to be a quick learner, and loves reading over her trainer's shoulder.

Walter (Linoone, Pickup)
Naughty nature, likes to run
--Headbutt
--Double Team
--Play Rough
--Odor Sleuth
Walter ambushed Judy and Elias on Route 101. Judy thought this was hilarious and has kept him around (whether on her team or in the PC) ever since. Walter is very mischievous and definitely her fastest Pokémon. He has a tendency to acquire random yet somehow useful items, especially food items.

Gregory (Tentacruel, Clear Body)
Serious nature, very finicky
--Acid Spray
--Water Pulse
--Barrier
--Supersonic
Fished up in Dewford Town. Gregory has the least developed social skills of anyone Judy travels with, which is understandable given that he's a jellyfish. Judy's convinced there's a nice guy beneath his hard shell and will work to bring it out.

Anna (Sandslash, holds a Soft Sand)
Jolly nature, likes to fight
--Cut
--Defense Curl
--Rollout
--Magnitude
Caught in the desert on Route 111. Anna has the enthusiasm of a Totodile and the subtlety of a Crush Claw to the face. She was invaluable in Lavaridge Gym.

Jacob (Machoke, Guts)
Brave nature, proud of his power
--Vital Throw
--Smack Down
--Focus Energy
--Revenge
Met on Jagged Pass. Jacob loves to show off his strength and compete with others. Somehow, he also has mild color blindness. Fortunately, his targets aren't usually blue/purple, so he can still see them and kick their butts.

Elias (Sceptile, holds a Miracle Seed)
Adamant nature, somewhat of a clown
--Leaf Blade
--Mega Drain
--Secret Power
--Agility
Starter, met in Prof. Birch's lab. Elias, like Walter, is quick on his feet and a little prankster-ish. He's also very loyal to Judy and kind of a Team Dad figure. 
I'll flesh out the personalities later, I swear.

Anyway. This is for Nuzlocke-Challenge's second NOCT, which comes with an actual plot! I basically remade one of my old OCs to have an actual personality and plausible team so I don't have to deal with the whole "is this canon or not" thing I did with the first NOCT. (Gods, that was a mess.) Suggestions are welcome!

Looks like we're paired against each other for round one! You know what's funny is I kept track of the list and no one besides us has anyone from the Machop line. XD Judy has Jacob, and Vikram has Mammy. We're also the only ones to have Swablus! But it looks like our Swabbies won't be pitted against each other in this round.

Vikram has mixed feelings about fighting a "little girl" to the death, but he's also got his limited mobility and beloved Pokemon to think about. Where Judy goes for speed, Vikram goes for defense and waiting until just the right moment to strike. It'll be a great battle!
