♞ about.
Franziska believes in the golden rules of discipline, and thus she trains her pokemon based on a strict regiment that's based mostly on her directing her pokemon at other pokemon armed with various levels of hostility. As it stands now, she trains her pokemon relentlessly. However, she is never purposefully cruel -- she would not bother if she didn't have high expectations for these pokmeon, and knows that a perfect regiment will also require water breaks and proper rest. Thus, despite her training methods, which may seem over the top to just about everyone else, she takes very good care of her pokemon based on the logic that a well-rested pokemon is stronger than one that is not. Her pokemon gain five levels a week without fail, but she notably has trouble training the younger pokemon because they have very limited attention spans. Her pokemon, however, are all incredibly disciplined.
She enjoys keeping her pokemon out of their pokeballs because it saves her the trouble of letting them out whenever she sees a worthy challenger -- which is all together too often, and thus it's far more efficient this way. Franziska leaves them outside when she enters an establishment, simply because the plant lizard and the bird have grown entirely too large to fit through a doorway. She's not particularly concerned about them being stolen because she is confident that they're powerful enough to be able to fend off any potential thieves.
She hasn't nicknamed them yet because she doesn't see any need to assign them names. However, this might change in the near future.
♞ party pokemon.
Venusaur | "nameless"
tackle ; growl ; leech seed ; vine whip ; poison powder ; sleep powder ; take down ; razor leaf ; sweet scent ; growth ; double edge ; worry seed ; synthesis ; petal dance ; worry seed ; synthesis ; solar beam ← attacks
The sort of pokemon that has a hyper-active imagination and who is extremely easy to motivate. Franziska's Venusaur has a very simplistic personality and very simple likes and dislikes. However, she is easily bullied into doing things that cross into the 'dislike' category simply because she's not the sort of pokemon who sports a strong backbone. Thus, she lets Franziska order her around with general uneasiness -- mostly out of concern for that crop she whips around. Since her evolution, she's become a lot more mellow in terms of personality, and has started sporting a loyalty streak a mile wide.

Rapidash | "nameless"
growl ; tackle ; tail whip ; ember ; flame wheel ; stomp ; fire spin ; take down ; agility ; fire blast ; bounce ← attacks
A mild and docile pokemon, this horse-like pokemon is all together not too concerned with anything and tends to go with the flow no matter what the flow is like. This both simultaneously pleases and frustrates Franziska, who likes obedient pokemon but who can't stand a passive attitude. She does listen, though, but never does anything beyond what she is told. Since her evolution, she's been more inclined to competitive maneuvers, but seems to get a kick, pardon the pun, out of tuning out Franziska. Franziska only tolerates this because she's starting to understand that the horse is merely doing this out of jest.

Aggron | "nameless"
tackle ; harden ; mud slap ; headbutt ; metal claw ; iron defense ; roar ; take down ; iron head ; protect ; metal sound ; iron tail ; double edge ; thunderbolt ← attacks
A pokemon that simply appeared in her vicinity without much warning at all -- Franziska is not entirely sure what to do with this moving hunk of metal, but because she never backs down from a challenge, she is determined to make it great. It helps that he rarely complains and is generally obedient to a fault. As a pokemon, however, he's spacey and curious -- much to Franziska's dismay. She's trying to train some of his cloudcuckoolander traits out of him, but so far, her efforts have been more or less futile. Since his evolution, he's become adept at sitting there staring into space for no apparent reason. Franziska keeps him around, however, because when he's motivated to fight, he is quite the sight to behold.

Vaporeon | "nameless"
tail whip ; tackle ; helping hand ; sand attack ; growl ; quick attack ; bite ; aurora beam ; aqua ring ; water pulse, ice beam, rain dance ← attacks
A small pokemon that she picked up the same way she picked up the Aron -- unintentionally and certainly not as dramatically as she had hoped. The pokemon was in her storage box when she had been attempting to withdraw her fish, and that was that. He's good-natured, childish and mischievous, but with a delicacy to him that Franziska's Wartortle lacked, which makes him far more tolerable. She's still not entirely sure what to do with him, but has welcomed him into her party nonetheless. Ever since his evolution, he's become utterly charming.

Golem | "nameless"
tackle, defense curl, mud sport, rock polish, rock throw, magnitude, selfdestruct, dig, smooth over, rollout, rock blast, earthquake, explosion, double-edge, stone-edge ← attacks
A pokemon she received in exchange for her Wartortle. Franziska is very pleased with this Golem, whose mindset seems to more or less match hers. He enjoys battling and hates losing -- two traits which makes her life just that much easier, and she appreciates it. While he doesn't seem to like her all that much, he's getting used to his new party members. Surprisingly enough, he gets along superbly with baby pokemon, and is positively delicate around them. Kind of a grumpy uncle figure for the team, he's slowly fitting in.

Milotic | "nameless"
splash derp derp ; tackle (egg move) ; aqual tail ; rain dance ; hydro pump ; attract ; safeguard ; aqua ring ; ice beam ← attacks
After a lot of hard-work and perseverance, this newly-evolved Milotic is ready to show the world what she is made of. Despite the awkward quality of Franziska's efforts during her fish days, she remembers Franziska fondly, and therefore is a pokemon that does all she can be to be the strongest she can be. Sensitive, idealistic and fairly intelligent, she is proud of her trainer, and most of all, proud of herself.

♞ storage pokemon.
Garchomp | "nameless"
tackle ; sand attack ; dragon rage ; sandstorm ; take down ; sand tomb ; dual chop ; slash ← attacks
A hungry, hungry thing, and to date, Franziska's most unruly pokemon. He seems to sport an incredible, all-consuming love for battling and has a tendency to challenge just about everything bigger than him to matches. Ever since his evolution, he's become that much more proficient in battling -- and this pleases both him and his trainer to no end. He is constantly seeking opponents, and when none are available, he will attack boulders and trees in hopes of honing his skills.
♂ ⌛ ☈ ❦ ☀ ⇱ ← hover
Piplup | "nameless"
pound ; growl ; bubble ; water sport ; peck ; bubblebeam ; bide ; fury attack ; brine ← attacks
Penguin with an attitude, Franziska's Piplup hates being called small and looks for every opportunity to be able to prove herself to others. She has a bit of a jealous streak, and has a tendency to strike out at those who she perceives are laughing at her expense. However, she tends to be in a more pleasant mood when she's well-fed, and acts rather childlike if you pick her up and snuggle with her. If you get past her exterior, she's actually quite affectionate.

Sneasel | "nameless"
scratch ; leer ; taunt ← attacks
When she bought this egg, Franziska honestly wasn't expecting a pokemon that was so dishonest. The Sneasel takes delight in tricking her opponents, and while she is efficient and has a tendency to mow down opposition without abandon, she doesn't approve of the pokemon's tactics. In Franziska's eyes, trickery is a coward's method. However, she tolerates the pokemon simply because she is both strong and an ice type -- and has taken it upon herself to attempt to teach the pokemon how to fight in a straight-forward manner.

Wartortle | "nameless"
tackle ; tail whip ; bubble ; withdraw ; water gun ; bite ; rapid spin ; protect ; water pulse ; aqua tail ; skull bash ; iron defense ; rain dance ; hydro pump ; ice beam ← attacks
SHE DOES NOT GET ALONG WITH THIS TURTLE D8 He's intelligent, fast and very, very fond of drenching her whenever he gets a chance to. While he's a very competent fighter and doesn't mind being ordered around, he has a tendency to get really playful in all sorts of ways, and this just doesn't sit well with Franziska. Unfortunately, trying to discipline him only seems to get her drenched more. :C
She traded Wartortle away to Satoko in exchange for the Golem. However, it found its way back to her after Satoko disappeared.

Shieldon | "nameless"
tackle ; protect ; rock blast (egg) ; taunt ; metal sound ← attacks
... once again, she's saddled with a small and derpy walking hunk of rock. Fortunately for Franziska, this one is far more ambitious. Unfortunately for Franziska, her ambition really only extends to how high she can reach on the food ladder. This little Shieldon loves to eat and spends most of her time doing so, which kind of drives Franziska crazy.

Sharpedo | "nameless"
feint ; bite ; leer ; rage ; focus energy ; scary face ; ice fang ; screech ; swagger ; assurance ; crunch ; slash ; aqua jet ; taunt ; agility ; skull bash ; ice beam ← attacks
A shark that showed up in her pokemon box out of the blue. She's probably one of the few people alive who'd find a Sharpedo to be somewhat graceful, and therefore has put a lot of effort into making it greater. He's a fairly annoying pokemon, with a tendency to scare others for the sake of seeing their reactions, but Franziska likes that attitude so long as he isn't doing foolishly foolish things. His training regiment is a little scary.

Skarmory | "nameless"
peck ; leer ; sand attack ; swift ; agility ; fury attack ; feint ; air cutter ; spikes ; metal sound ; steel wing ← attacks
This Skarmory is a vain, vain thing. Having pretty much taken after its trainer, it lives on praise and awe, taking just about any opportunity to flaunt its beautiful wings and glossy texture. It spends an inordinate amount of time preening and dislikes forgoing its daily routines. It's a stubborn creature with a temper that flares almost as quickly as it quells. It is a fierce fighter, however, and seems to possess an extremely aggressive nature. While it's a shrewd, independent fighter that will stop at nothing to win, but it also possesses a strange sense of honor; it refuses to battle those that it considers weaker, and stands by its values no matter what happens.

Gengar | "Trick"
hypnosis ; lick ; spite ; mean look ; curse ; night shade ; confuse ray ; sucker punch ; shadow punch ; payback ; shadow ball ; dream eater ; dark pulse ; destiny bond ; nightmare ← attacks
ANOTHER POKEMON SHE JUST DOESN'T GET ALONG WITH. This Gengar is playful, mischievous and likes licking her too much. She spends more time chasing him than training him and is extremely infuriated by the fact that her crop goes right through him. However, at the end of the day, she keeps him close and ensures that he gets a good chunk of time outside of storage for training, feeding and daily exercise. After all, he was once Sissel's pokemon, and it will not do if she could not take care of him perfectly.

Wailord | "Mino"
splash ; growl ; water gun ; rollout ; whirlpool ; astonish ; water pulse ; mist ; rest ; brine ; water spout ; amnesia ; dive ; bounce ← attacks
A bouncy pokemon that once belonged to Sissel. While Franziska would be the first to dissuade you of any sentimental notions, she takes good care of the whale-like pokemon and takes marked interest in her development. Ever since her evolution, however, she's become a little awkward around her, mainly because she's SO FREAKING HUGE now and she really doesn't know what to do with her. However, Franziska is determined to keep her great in Sissel's memory.

Growlithe | "Sirius"
bite ; roar ; ember ; leer ; odour sleuth ; helping hand ; flame wheel ; reversal ; fire fang ; take down ; flamethrower ; agility ; crunch ; heat wave ; flare blitz ← attacks
A brave little boy that Franziska found pawing through her bag on a windy, April morning. They didn't exactly hit it off, for he spent most of the first week growling terribly at her and them moping about with his tail tucked under his legs, which Franziska took to mean that he was finally submitting to her authority. However, she's been taking marked care of him ever since learning that the pokemon that randomly appear around her actually belonged to people she knew -- and while she never realized that Sirius was Phoenix's pokemon, they've slowly started to mend that bridge.
