I am attending college and as a result, my updates are going to be few and far between. I have lots of homework and projects to keep up with and tests to study for, so any and all of my writing is going to be in free time that I have when I'm not doing any of the necessities. I apologize for this, but my lack of updating does not mean in any way that I have given up on these stories! They will be completed if it's the last thing I do!

Again, sorry for the gap in between updates. I hope you still enjoy reading my work when it does come out.

As per a request from the readers of my Pokemon fanfic, Challenger, I've decided to create a list of the Pokemon that each trainer has along with their nicknames (if they have one) to make identifying them easier. These will obviously be updated as the story gets longer. If you have any further questions or need clarification on something, just PM me or leave a review in the story :)

-Update: I'll now be including the known move sets of each Pokemon in the bios. In addition, I'll be adding their abilities and any unique techniques, as well as a list of the TMs currently owned by each trainer. Note: If the Pokemon has not officially debuted/battled in the story, its current move set will not be listed until then. All move sets will also be updated as time goes on and the story progresses.

Without further ado, here are the bios for Challenger! Spoiler alert for those of you who aren't caught up with the story! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
