Aww yeah, new trainer card for The-IPL

Trainer Info:

Name: Eisha Shanna
Subtitle: Mercenary
Gender: Female
Height: 6' 1"
Age: 29
Personality: Eisha takes pretty much everything in stride. She's seen a lot, traveling the world as she has. You could describe her as true neutral. She'll work for just about anyone who's willing to pay her, from rich coordinators to a Jenny Police Force, and even Team Rocket on occasion. Once in a very rare while, she'll take a job for cheap or free, if she feels the person really needs the help. She gets along with her Pokemon far better than most Humans. Her team is her family, humans just pay the bills.

History: Eisha was born in Celadon City, Kanto. She entered into the Indigo League just like every young person wanted to, gathering the prerequisite eight badges. Of course, she didn't win, as the vast majority of the hundreds of trainers competeing every year don't win. She made it into the third round before being eliminated. Afterwards, she discovered Contests, and didn't even bother trying to compete, knowing they definitely weren't her thing. However, the coordinators who had beautiful, well-groomed Pokemon with no idea of how do fight were quite happy to have an escort from city to city.

At this point in time, Eisha works as a freelance mercenary type, escorting Coordinators or rich people, hunting down Pokemon that were causing trouble for the police force, or those who didn't want to bother catching for themselves. She's been adding bits of armor in both leather and metal to her wardrobe over the years, various scars attesting to too-close for comfort battles that went wrong.

She's been in the Challenger Island Chain for quite some time now, exploring dangerous islands, helping out during natural disasters, even challenging an Elite Four member for the first time in well over a decade. Recently, her team entered in the Pokemon-only Marlowe's Meander, and they've been different ever since. It took Eisha a long time to convince Ree that Malki's death wasn't her fault, and they both feel guilt over it even now.

Pokemon Info: (Other known moves in brackets)

Name: Scorch
Species: Houndoom
Sex: Male
Ability: Flash Fire
Held Item: Charcoal
Preferred Move Set: Flamethrower, Bite, Fire Fang, Faint Attack (Crunch, Dark Pulse, Smokescreen)
Bio: Scorch was Eisha's first Pokemon, and looks to her as his Alpha. While he looks ferocious, as any Houndoom does, he's really a sweetie outside of battle. In a fight though, he fights hard to come out on top, finding it great fun to win. Of course, if you threaten his teammates or Alpha, or especially his Omnom, be prepared to face his wrath.
He's steadfastedly loyal, although not a good team leader himself. With a little direction, though, he's impressively dangerous. He is well balanced between ranged and physical attacks.

Name: Garuda
Species: Pidgeot (Shiny)
Sex: Female
Ability: Keen Eye
Held Item:
Preferred Move Set: Acrobatics, Steel Wing, Brave Bird, Fly, Sky Attack (Roost, Sand Attack, Tailwind)
Bio: Garuda was her first wild capture, a shiny Pidgey. Eisha also got her first armor pieces, the armguards, right afterwards, to protect herself, and give Garuda a place to sit. While not friendly the way Scorch is, Garuda follows her orders without question. She's reliable and aggressive, and large enough to easily carry her trainer around with Fly.
Not a talkative Pokemon, and really not as intelligent as the mammals on her team, Garuda believes in the method of "Hit it harder until it dies." This has rarely failed her.

Name: Omnom
Species: Shedinja
Sex: N/A
Ability: Wonder Guard
Held Item: Focus Sash
Preferred Move Set: -X-Scissor, Double Team, Night Slash, Confuse Ray (Bug Buzz, Shadow Sneak)
Bio: Omnom was captured accidentally. Scorch found a dried out insect husk, and not ever having seen a Nincada or Shedinja, Eisha mistakenly assumed it was the remains of an evolving Kakuna, and let her Houndour chew on it. Eventually, it saved both of them from a wild Pikachu, and as far as anyone can tell, is completely happy to be used as a chew toy. Eisha isn't sure if Scorch realizes Omnom is a sentient Pokemon or just thinks it's a really powerful good luck charm.
Omnom was also around at Aquali's hatching... although it isn't really the parenting type. Aquali likes it anyways, and even chews on it if Scorch isn't doing it first. His attacks focus on the physical aspect and confusing his opponents.

Name: Ree
Species: Umbreon
Sex: Female
Ability: Synchronize
Held Item: Leftovers
Preferred Move Set: Toxic, Protect, Last Resort, Wish (Flash, Light Screen, Dark Pulse, Assurance)
Bio: Ree was the final edition to Eisha's team, offered as payment from a particularly grateful coordinator she'd escorted through Dark Cave instead of her usual fee. She accepted, figuring she could always trade it if necessary. The Eevee meshed into her team perfectly though, eventually growing into a perfect mated pair with Malki. She's a superb support for anyone in a fight, especially after evolving.
During Marlowe's Meander, Ree came into her own as a leader, marshalling her team as well as the others in the group and taking her defensive capabilities to heights she'd never thought possible. Her confidence suffered a bad blow, however, when her mate was struck down protecting her, and Ree herself fell shortly after. The difference between them was that Ree wore full plate armor at the time, and when Garuda deposited her in front of Eisha, a Max Revive brought her right around. The lightly armored Malki wasn't so lucky, and a funeral pyre was held at sunset. Ree has become quieter, and angrier as a result. While she still focuses on defense in a fight, she is far more likely to attack than she used to be. Helping to mentor Aquali has helped move her past her grief.
Ree is a massive defensive tank, and relies almost entirely on inflicting status and dodging her opponents attacks until they just collapse from exhaustion. She does have one or two attacks, but they don't hit terribly hard.

Name: Aquali
Species: Vaporeon
Sex: Female
Ability: Water Absorb
Held Item: Bright Powder
Preferred Move Set: Surf, Ice Beam, Acid Armor, Aqua Ring (Blizzard, Hyper Beam, Fake Tears, Charm, Signal Beam)
Bio: Aquali was hatched from an egg gifted by Kamata's farm, during the Eighteen Orders event. The first time since getting Scorch as a puppy that Eisha had gotten a baby Pokemon, the Eevee immediately charmed both trainer and Raichu. She was eager to evolve, as long as it was to something pretty, and has loved being a Vaporeon, swimming on the beaches almost daily. With first Dude and then Ree to mentor her, she's learned very fast, and is well on her way to being a powerful member of the team. The baby of the group, with a sweet, optimistic attitude, she is well adored by the entire team.
Aquali is almost as tanky as her adoptive mother, especially once she's had a chance to set up, playfully lowering her opponent's stats and setting up an Aqua Ring for recovery. The difference is that her ranged attacks are very powerful in addition to this.

Name: Goliath
Species: Mudsdale
Sex: Male
Ability: Stamina
Held Item: Rocky Helmet
Preferred Move Set: High Horsepower, Double Kick, Earthquake, Rock Slide, Heavy Slam
Bio: Eisha's never made it to Alola yet, but she saw an exhibition of Riding Pokemon and was absolutely determined to get herself one of the absolutely massive Mudsdales for her own, especially with an empty slot on her team. Goliath was one of the few up for sale, as he was considered too temperamental for true Ride Paging activities. He works well with a single human, and a lot of his attitude issues went away once Eisha started using him in fights. He's adapted well to his admittedly unusual new herd, settling in well with the team. He's a defensive tank like Ree, but doesn't know it; He focuses on trampling his opponents, not even noticing when the attacks just bounce off him.

[s]Name: Dude
Species: Raichu
Sex: Female
Ability: Lightningrod
Held Item: Expert Belt
Preferred Move Set: -Surf, Thunder, Rain Dance, Thunderbolt (Thunder Wave, Quick Attack, Swift)
(Dude's Surf can be depicted as a traditional water wave, or as something using her surf board. Either one works.)
Bio: Dude was caught as a Pikachu, and using Surf due to some genetic fluke, took out Scorch in one hit. Unwilling to send out her newly captured Garuda against a surprisingly powerful Pikachu, Eisha was resigned to taking an unpleasant beating herself when Scorch's mangled chew toy floated into the air and proceeded to beat the snot of of her. Dude's never really gotten to like Omnom, although at least she's not afraid of it anymore. She's the most fun-loving of Eisha's team, and can be a little chaotic in a fight.
Injured while exploring the Most Dangerous Island, Ree vacationed during Marlowe's Meander, and has helped young Aquali learn how to battle. [/s] Due to her decreasing agility and speed from that injury, Dude has been retired, although if Eisha needed something electrocuted, she's still available.

Name: Malki
Species: Persian
Sex: Male
Ability: Technician
Held Item: Razor Claw
Preferred Move Set: Bite, Water Pulse, Slash, Swift
Bio:
Malki was caught in a very normal sort of way. He picked a fight with Scorch before either of them had evolved. When Scorch and Eisha soundly defeated and captured him, he decided to work with them avidly, wanting to get stronger. He's very fast, very deadly, and has learned to follow Eisha's commands in battle, since she tends to be smarter about it than him.
Malki was lost during Marlowe's Meander. Fighting a demigod can have that effect.
