there's 3 members, chervil and walton, who i've posted drawings of here before already, and elliot, a former human turned espurr. elliot joined the team a while after they found him unconscious in the woods, with a few broken ribs (oof). they took him to their guild's doctor, and he luckily made a full recovery. he doesn't remember anything from his past other than his name (as per the usual for humans in this situation) and he's struggling to figure out this whole "being a pokemon" thing (moves especially have been difficult) and is lacking confidence as a result. he's pretty quiet and reserved most of the time, but becomes a lot more animated when he's just hanging out with the rest of the team.
walton is a very energetic wooper who loves rocks. he's by far the most confident and outgoing of the team (perhaps overly so) and is easily the most proficient in battle. he's always carrying his favorite rock with him wherever he goes, and often opens fights by kicking it at his opponent, a skill he learned from his father, a cinderace named wick. it was his idea originally to form the team with chevil, and he welcomed elliot in with open (metaphorical) arms!
chervil, the snivy, is a bookworm, the braincell of the group. he's been best friends with walton ever since they hatched, he always used to get dragged out into the woods near the village where they grew up, going out on little "adventures". while he probably would've preferred to be inside reading, spending time with walton was always nice, and he was happy to form an exploration team with him. he's not the best at battling, but he knows a lot about old legends and folklore, having read plenty of books. he was, of course, very excited when he learned elliot was a human, it's like living in a fairytale after all!
together they're the protagonists of a story i've had in my head for a long time now, i haven't gotten around to properly writing it yet, but maybe this year i'll finally do it! (if not, it's at least fun to come up with ideas!)
