astrology: ⊙ - sun sign, ☽ - moon sign, asc - ascendant sign. is not based on any actual astrological relevance as i do not know what the pokemon sky is like and will never know, but rather, based on the characters personality
sexuality: self-explanatory, "???" means questioning, n/a means they haven't thought about it yet
type: "type" when referring to humans is not referring to the exact same "type" that a pokemon would have. most humans are not duel type, for one, but most humans also cannot utilize this typing for any meaningful results. all it means for most people is that their talents might lean in a certain direction, but reasonably could be achieved by any person if dedicated enough. a "+" symbol denotes a person who has developed powers beyond what anyone would expect of a typical human being (pokemon receiving this symbol as default). a link to in-depth descriptions of each type can be found here.
hometown: where a character was born or grew up as a child
current residence: where a character is living during their last appearance (whatever their oldest age is)
previous regions traveled: listed in chronological order. if a region is listed that is also the character's current residence, assume it their second time traveling through it
relatives: only includes semi-immediate family members, will not include in-laws, distant cousins, great aunts etc etc.
occupation: what the character does with most of their time - does not inherently imply they make money doing it
pokemon (on-hand): what the character carries on their person regularly during their last appearance (whatever their oldest age is)

the reason that humans have "types" (separate but not dissimilar from those that pokemon have), can be attributed to a common ancestor shared by humans and pokemon in the "human-like" egg category. humans evolved alongside pokemon and while most lost their ability to utilize their typings (and all lost their abilities to use uniquely-named "moves"), they make up for that in their ability to form broader civilizations than most pokemon can, as well as to raise, train, and command pokemon in battle. some pokemon have been known to "train" other pokemon, but generally speaking, this is a trait most commonly found in humans.types that humans can be, listed in order of commonality, are: fighting, psychic, fairy, dark, & ghost.fighting types are usually passionate, strong-willed humans with a proclivity for physical strength. they are not incapable of intelligence - in fact, being the most common typing, many professors and scholars are fighting type. muscle might build quicker than those with other typings but on the other hand, they might be more prone to mood swings and anger. a "+" symbol usually denotes aura powers - either being able to sense aura or manipulate it - but it can also refer to physical strength beyond what could be expected of a typical human being.psychic types are often split into two different sub-categories: analytical and empathetic. those in the first group often have an easier time memorizing school notes or piecing together information - they're known for being intelligent but also can come across as cold or unfeeling. on the other hand, those in the second group tend to have high levels of empathy and creativity, often coming off to others as intuitive (or somewhat being able to tell the future). however, some people argue that both categories mix too often to be cleanly split and that generally the psychic type has a broader range of abilities than others. a "+" symbol can mean anything from telekinesis and telepathy to being able to read the thoughts of pokemon or predicting the future with unusual accuracy.fairy types are a rarer category and not much is known about them. in general they might be cunning and sly, able to somewhat manipulate those around them to do their bidding. they often have youthful appearances and might give off a "creepy", ethereal vibe. a "+" symbol might mean they can sense aura (not usually being able to fully utilize it like fighting types) or that they have anti-ageing powers which make them appear much, much younger than they actually are. further research is needed to determine if fairy types are capable of having any other unique powers.dark types are similarly rare, often getting confused for other types even after tests have been conducted. they're known to be sinister and irritable, but like any other type, sterotypes aren't always what determines a dark type's character. they are often misunderstood and feel like outcasts - prone to depression and "dark" thoughts. a "+" symbol has only ever been documented to mean a certain extra level of "luck" but this is debated as many researchers do not believe in the concept at all. otherwise, dark type powers have not been researched to a satisfactory extent.ghost is a unique typing, as it does not come about naturally and has only been found in humans who have undergone intense physical and emotional trauma (often in near-death situations). it's been theorized that to become ghost type means that you have been "chosen" by the ghost realm as an emissary, but this has not been proven. most people who become ghost type develop some form of "+" power, but these powers vary greatly. some of the powers reported to come from those with the ghost typing include being able to walk through walls, float short distances (or, allegedly, all the time), talk to pokemon, read other's minds, sense impending danger or turning invisible. none of these have been able to be fully researched or documented, and in fact, many other powers have been rumored but proven. many of these powers could have come from other previous typings, and no one is sure if any of these powers are even "human".

lore

this universe is set within the "y" timeline, meaning that yveltal was the pokemon, 800 years ago, to have absorbed life energy from the pokemon world at large - and lysandre was subsequently killed after his plans were foiled. for its sister universe set within the "x" timeline, look at after kalos.this au combines plots and characters from both the anime & games. the games included in it are the mainline series as well as the ranger series and pokemon go. more game universes may be incorporated later.time does not flow as it does in our world, and months & seasons do not exist as we know them. recorded years were reset when yveltal went into its sleep, and ash's journey through kalos marks the 800th anniversary of that date.the consequence of life energy being scarce throughout the pokemon world in this au is that this universe is slightly less "correct" than its sister. people feel a general unease in their life, like something is always "off". a select few end up happier in this world than they would be in the other, but as for most people, they will be a little more unsatisfied.
