	Chahiko (50 | Hasty | gets carried away easily | Tangled Feet ability)
	Pearl's first Pokémon; he's had him for quite a long time! He's resourceful and is a strong battler when he does battle. Mostly, Pearl uses him to spy or keep an eye on people, thus he's very adept at remembering phrases and using them when needed. Like his trainer, he's quick and impatient; he takes out his frustration on Diamond's Munchlax in a similar manner to Pearl taking his out on Diamond as well. Canon moves: Fury Attack, Chatter, Mirror Move, Aerial Ace, Pluck Learned moves: n/a
	Chimhiko (65 | Naughty | likes to race | Blaze ability)
	Pearl originally received this for becoming Platina's "bodyguard" in a fit of miscommunication and misunderstanding. Despite that, Chimhiko's really taken to Pearl well, and evolved through his journey in sync with Wig and Empoleon. He's the most used Pokémon of the trio thanks to his quick agility and overall overpowering speed on land, and he's useful for breaking and entering into places. Still, nothing's quite like lounging around -- even if he doesn't get to do it as much as he could as a Chimchar. He's also incredibly ticklish. Canon moves: Ember, Flame Wheel, Mach Punch, Overheat, Fury Swipes, Close Combat, Focus Punch, Flare Blitz, Flamethrower Learned moves: n/a
	Rayhiko (60 | Brave | very shrewd | Intimidate ability)
	Rayhiko joined Pearl at Fuego Ironworks, and is likely his most illustrious Pokémon. He was first met as a Luxio, when he took Platina hostage and defeat her Pokémon as well as Diamond's. He was trying to prove his worth to the pride he belonged to, and Pearl helped him through the use of "keeping rhythm" in manzai -- that is, hitting your partner! Rayhiko can see through anything with his x-ray vision, as trait native to his species, and has helped the trio out quite a few times since their initial meeting. Canon moves: Shock Wave, Discharge Learned moves: n/a
