Ask the Cast: Pebble Version Edition

[Metalheadz]

Hello Brendan, wanna battle me?

[Josiah]

"Why does everyone I meet want to battle? Isn't there anything else to do around here?"

[Winters Rage]

Brendon: What is your favorite pokemon of all? Of the ones you have?

[Josiah]

"Of the ones I have right now? Combusken. He's cool, strong, and would probably attack me if I didn't pick him."

[Metalheadz]

*the dancing alien walks in front of Brendan*

[Josiah]

"That's not really a question."

[Metalheadz]

To the man in the blue shirt: Who are you?

[Phonox]

To Brendan, May, and Josiah: What do you see here?

[Winters Rage]

((Lol, I see a skull and crossbones turned upside down with an atomic explosion at the top (before you flip it)))
Mew: What is it like being a Legendary Pokemon and all?

[Josiah]

To the man in the blue shirt: Who are you?

"Are you talking about me? I'm Josiah, the guy who makes Pebble Version and all that. If you're talking about some other guy in a blue shirt, you're going to have to be a whole lot more specific than that."

[Josiah]

To Brendan, May, and Josiah: What do you see here?

"A highly stylized upside down skull and crossbones."

"A rare pokémon!"

"A big ink blot."

[Josiah]

Mew: What is it like being a Legendary Pokemon and all?

Mew: "Mew, mew, ew, me, mew, mew, mew."

[St0rMeR]

How old are you May and Brendan??

[Josiah]

"I actually gave a very detailed answer to that question much earlier in this thread. To save time, here it is again."

How old are Brendan, May, Xain and Cali? They seem to be around the same age and I know they aren't 11 (11-year-olds do not have girlfriends/boyfriends unless they are just friends)

I'm guessing 13 at least

"Hmm... There's a reason I've never put an official age to them. If you look at the ages of characters in stuff like the Pokémon anime, manga, and even the past games then Brendan and the others would be around 11 or 12. This is a rather commen trend in many anime and manga where young characters tend to act several years older than they really are.

However, that's not something I'm very fond of. If they're going to act older they should be older in my opinion. So, the official Pebble Version character ages are...

Brendan - 16
May - 15
Xain - 16
Cali - 16

To clarify a little more just for the heck of it... Brendan and Xain were born in the same month and are both about four months older than May. Cali, on the other hand, is only around two months older than May and had her 16th birthday only a week before she and Xain first appeared in the comic.

Many pokémon trainers, however, start when they are around 12 and some begin when they're even younger.

Brendan got off to a late start partly because his dad didn't think he'd make a good trainer and partly because of a general lack of interest on his own part.

May, on the other hand, spent most of her time working with pok?mon that her father used for research so she never recieved one of her own until very recently. Her father actually gave her mudkip so he could send her out on her own to work on his new pok?dex project once everything was ready. Although, he didn't tell her that.

Xain wasn't very interested in pokémon until after meeting Cali, who showed him how cool and fashionable some of them were (although she didn't have any of her own at the time). After receiving electrike for her 16th birthday, she decided to form the most fashionable pok?mon team ever. A couple days later, Xain was contacted by Professor Birch who offered him a free pokémon (treeko) if he'd come to Littleroot to help out with a new project.

And there you go. Man, I sure can turn an easy question into a ridiculously long answer..."

[Winters Rage]
