Character Sheet: Larry

LARRY

Next up, we have everyone’s favorite gym leader, Larry, the Normal-type gym leader of Medali as well as a Flying-type Elite Four. He is a workaholic salary man, with a demeanor of being bored with life and just going through the motions for a paycheck, something I feel many fans probably relate to a lot.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Normal-tera Staraptor

It will perform Façade

 

Side B: Briefcase

He does believe that simplicity is best, so, he just kinda smacks you with his briefcase.

Down B: Secret Order

He will eat his medium serving of extra-crispy Fire Blast style grilled rice balls with lemon, getting a slight boost.

Character Sheet: Kofu

 KOFU

Next up, we have Kofu, a seafood chef and the Water-type gym leader of Cascarrafa. He has a normal gym challenge, but you don’t get to see it, as he is busy with a fish auction happening that day, and your challenge is to instead help him with that.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Water-tera Crabominable

Performing Crab Hammer

 

Side B: Auction Bid

He will hold up a panel, which will immediately draw one item on the stage to him, even if closer to someone else.

 

Up B: Vaultin’ Veluza

Based on his main catchphrase, and I just like the idea of him hanging onto a Veluza as it leaps from the water.

 

Down B: Fish Filet

Once again, our chefs always gotta eat their own food for some health.

 

Final Smash: Cascarrafa Gym Fish Market

He will send out Veluza, Wugtrio, and a terastalized Crabominable to create waves on the stage.

Character Sheet: Iono

IONO

Hello, out there, all my loyal followers! It’s me, your favorite streamer, Iono! I hijacked prastarkeepers’ blog today to tell you all about myself! I’m the Electric-type gym leader for Lavencia with a huge following, and a gym challenge involving my dear friend Mr. Walksabout! You can bet, for sure, I’ve got enough to work with! Subscribe to watch live.

Here’s a teensy-tiny little moveset I just made for myself:

 

Standard B: Electric-tera Mismagius

Now, some of you may have been expecting my bestest friend Bellibolt. Well, he works too, but the rest of my gym leader friends have all been doing their tera-buddies, so I probably should too.

 

Side B: Screenshot

For this move, I will think I just spotted Mr. Walksabout behind my opponent and take a screenshot of the feed. This has the unfortunate issue of stunning my opponent at the same time. Whoopsy daisies!

 

Up B: Magnet Rise

Now, some of you may notice the cute little Magnemites in my hair can sometimes float on their own. Well, this time, they get to take me with them! Yay!

 

Down B: Iono Zone

And now for everybody’s favorite move! I’ll create a field around myself where all your wonderful likes and comments will appear. As long as I am standing in it, I get boosts from all your love and support, but my meanie-weanie opponents will all take damage if they step inside. Boo-hoo!

 

Final Smash: Lavencia Gym Iono-Stars

For my big finale, I’m going to send out my Bellibolt, my Kilowattrel, and of course my Terastalized Mismagius to electrify the stage. By the way, a sub-a-thon will be running the whole time the move is happening, so be sure to get those gift subs in!

 

Entrance: Of course, I’ll come in welcoming all my beautiful followers.

 

Taunts: Oh, you know, all of my taunts will be my famous and iconic poses. You all know them. Do them with me!

Special Move: I think I’ll put up my Iono Zone, so I can see all your lovely support for me!

 

Spirit Battle: For this one, I’ll be right here at Naranja Academy in its omega form, accompanied by my favorite baseline gym team.

 

Victory Screen: You all know what happens when we reach one million subs! IONO PARTY!!

Losing Screen: And now, all of my wonderful challengers get an Electric Badge!

 

Color Swaps: Well, of course, I’ll have my basic outfit, and some outfits based on my favorite Pokemon. I might even wear an outfit based on my fellow streamer, Canari, from the Kalos region or my bestest best friend in the whole world, Dot. As a collab, of course.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, my friend Kofu serves up some fish! Catch ya next time! Bysies!

Character Sheet: Katy

KATY

Now, we start our run of Paldean gym leaders. First up, we have Katy, the Bug-type gym leader of Cortondo. She is a pastry chef, and her gym challenge has a whole olive run thing going on. (Side note: All of the Paldean gym challenges take place outside the gym and require a lot of running around the city in question, so that should give us quite a bit).

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

Up B: Olive Jump

She will ride an olive off one of the jumps from her gym challenge.

She will send out a terastalized Ursaring, Spidops, and Lokix to swarm the stage.
