Gender: Remember kids, don't ever give your private details to people you don't know on the Internet! Or do, I'm not your boss. Call me they/them/he/she/it/that weird kid sat on their Switch/a cat. If referring to me, Ax apparently stands for Axle/Axel/Axon/Axgeuartrwfevser
Country: In the happy place in my head, my own Dragon Gym with access to a holiday whenever I want (because I'm still a protagonist). Hey, it's my head, I can be whatever I want in there. See below for details.
Favorite Pokémon: Favorite overall: currently Darkrai. Watch this space. Favorite legendary: Calyrex. Favorite Mythical: Magerna. Favorite Paradox: Iron Leaves. Favorite Mega: Mega Charizard Y. Favorite new Mega: Mega Emboar. My dream Pokemon: Mega Tatsugiri with Gulp Missile (seriously, that is the best ability EVER.) and can learn Transform, Mat Block, G-Max Gravitas and Light That Burns My Eyes.
Friend Codes: [funny joke about how I don't know what friends are]

If playthrough names count, I use Barney. As in the dinosaur. Yes, I know. Please do not ask.
My alt accounts are so far mostly called (Your Name) because I have that sense of humor that finds NPCs asking "What's your name? Oh, Your Name, is it?" hilarious.

Showdown username is Ax109 again.

Credit to Pokebase and Bulbapedia for all the (many) sprites of my grav.
About me: Please battle me!

I love competitive battling, but I am just not very good at it :(
If you want to battle me, please do tell me! I battle on Violet, LZA, (where I am slightly better), Champions, or Showdown. I also play Unite, but I am close to the friend limit there.

1 Garganacl,
2 Houndoom,
2 Alpha Aggron,

3 Trubbish,
1 Absol,

7 Carvahna,
And a Farfetch'd in a Xurkitree

I got a Totodile distortion! My shiny box has a flex now: all the shiny starters from Kanto, Hoenn, Kalos and ZA!

I have Switch Online, so if you like the look of some of these, feel free to give an offer for them.
I like most Dragon and Fairy shinies, and would also give good shinies for shiny Tepig / Fennekin /  Charmander - they are a nightmare to get

Massive WolfeyVGC fan. Would love to meet him (and get destroyed by him) even online. (if you are Wolfe, please have pity on me)

My favorite games are ORAS even though I have never played them, from what I have heard about them, they sound incredible.
 - My favorite storyline is Hoenn (I wanna live there     and beat the lava out of Groudon (or the seaweed     out of Kyogre (is that what Kyogres have inside them? (this is a lot of brackets))))
 - I LOVE the Primals' design and battleability
 - And Megas are only 2nd to Dynamax in my top     regional gimmicks list.
However, I am probably never getting a 3DS, because I don't love ORAS enough to justify the amount they cost.

I love music, so I really like listening to battle tunes. As of May 2026, my top is Team Star from Violet. Here's a list of my favorite from each game I have:
LGP: Trainer
Sword: Gym Leader (I never battle on there though)
LA: Basic battle theme
Violet: Team Star
Teal Mask: Loyal Three
Indigo Disk: BB Trainer
LZA: Corbeau
Mega Dimension: Super Ancient Pokemon
Champions: B/W Trainer

For those looking for the rules of the Gym I would own in the anime universe, it's the 8th Gym, (obvs), Double Battles, and with a loose Dragon typing - I wanted to use Don-Tatsu, and I don't really like other Water types. Additionally, it's Nat Dex, so all regional gimmicks can and will be used by me. The team is:
 - Dondozo with Tera Dragon - see, it's kinda still Dragon - knowing Order Up, Earthquake, Heavy Slam (for the faries) and Dive, because the Dig moves always hit in anime.
 - Mega Tatsugiri with Helping Hand, Muddy Water, Draco Meteor, for burst damage as this is essentially a heavy-hitting supporter, and Rain Dance - for the next in the team to come when Dondozo dies.
 - Archaludon with Stamina. Uses the rain from Tatsu to fire Electro Shots, Dragon Pulse, Body Press cannot be passed up on, and maybe Iron Defence to punish opponents' passivity.
 - Dragonite, another supporter, but more one that get all of my pokemon to a stupidly high speed to dodge everything (since this is anime), with a moveset of Tailwind, Extreme Speed, because priority moves are basically Detect in anime, Scale Shot for even more speed and Hurricane in rain.
 - Dragapult with Dragonium Z, and Dragon Darts for the Z-move, Phantom Force (see Dive note), Shadow Ball and Double-Edge. A sweeper leading to the finale:
 - G-Max Charizard, my ace.
Flamethrower for G-Max Wildfire, Air Slash for STAB and Max Airstream, Solar Beam - see why next - and Sunny Day to throw opponents off guard that just got used to fighting in rain.
Will m/any Gym challengers beat me? Probably not. But that's not the point.
The Gym Challenge will be a league table with every challenger at the moment. When you join, you get put at the bottom, and you can challenge any challenger to a 1v1 singles or 2v2 doubles battle, no party Pokemon. If you beat someone higher than you, you swap places with them on the table. If you beat someone lower down, you move up 1 place, to give some other incentive to winning than not getting demoted. The person at the top of the table is the one with the right to challenge me.
If I need a break, the last 10 people to be at the top will all be invited to stand in for me, with BO1 battles between multiple people who respond.

Current word count: 1009! We are back!

I misread your comment on Apg's wall as you were hunting for 17 shiny Chandelure and I got so confused.
