Hello everyone!
One thing I forgot to mention, you're probably wondering why would these Pokémon need to use weapons. And if you're not, I'll fill you in anyway. The Shadow Pokémon are resistant to most Pokémon attacks. The robots aren't, but, to them, it's more fun to use weapons instead of their attacks. Plus, they use their moves in conjunction with their weapons anyway.
Here is our next Pokémon mercenary, based on the TF2 Soldier:
Name: Solomon John Doe
Species: Blastoise
Gender: Male
Class: Soldier
Appearance: He wears a dark red/light blue soldier helmet as well as a red/blue military uniform jacket with fatigues. He also has a belt with a few pouches containing ammunition and a bandolier holding two grenades.
Personality: Unlike the Soldier he's based on, Solly here actually was in the military and fought in actual wars. However, he is insane and overly patriotic. Like most war veterans, he has developed post-traumatic stress disorder, which just adds to his insanity. Though it doesn't affect his current job as a mercenary too much, it sometimes causes him to go on a violent rampage. He does receive treatment for this, though.
Notable Family Members: None
Name Origin: Solomon comes from the Hebrew word for peace (which is ironic). John Doe is a placeholder name for a man whose true identity is unknown. This is a reference to the TF2 Soldier being called Mr. Jane Doe, which is the placeholder name used for women.
Disclaimer: I only own my OCs.
Meet the Blastoise
A robot Charizard is shown running its flamethrower before getting blown up by rockets. Elsewhere, a robot Hydreigon gets blown up as well. In another location, a robot Golurk gets blown up while making a finger gun near the camera.
Solomon is now giving a lecture to supposedly new recruits. "'If fighting is sure to result in victory, then you must fight!' Sun Tzu said that, and I'd say he knows a little more about fighting than you do, pal, because he invented it, and then he perfected it so that no living man could best him in the ring of honor." he said.
Switching to a battlefield scene, Solomon is screaming while hitting his shovel against his helmet. He then charges at a robot Heracross who he killed with his shotgun. The missed grenade the robot shot explodes in the background. A robot Gardevoir appears on a ledge behind Solly and starts shooting psychic-enhanced syringes. "To the left!" said a Golem, warning Solomon of the ambush. "Maggots!" Solomon shouts as he blows the robot up with rockets fired from the cannons on his back. A Medicham slides down a ladder with her sniper rifle. "Right up! Right up!" she said. "Go! Go! Go!" said Ivan as he joined in the charge.
Going back to the drill lecture, Solomon is continuing his nonsensical story of the Pokémon world's equivalent of Sun Tzu. "And then he used his fight money to buy two of every animal on earth, and then he herded them onto a boat and then he beat the crap out of every single one." he said while using the grenades on his bandolier as puppets.
Back to the battlefield scene, Solly is running before hearing his teammate warn him of a sentry gun. "Sentry up there!" the Gengar warned. Solomon turned the corner to see a robot Mawile trying to repair its sentry. "Dang nabbit!" it said trying to reload the turret. Solomon shot a rocket at the sentry, destroying it and the robot while the blast launched the Blastoise on to a higher platform. Solomon then launches a rocket that managed to destroy a robot Tyranitar and a robot Ninetales. Solomon then drops down to reload. A robot Banette uncloaks behind him to backstab him, but Solomon noticed this and smacked the robot in the face with his shovel.
Back to the "lecture", Solomon starts laughs a little. "And from that day forward any time a bunch of animals are together in one place it's called a 'zoo'!" he said right in the face of a recruit. He then backed up and the camera switched perspectives to show that the "recruits" where actually the severed heads of the robots Solly just destroyed the battle prior standing on a fence. The head of a Gardevoir robot falls off the fence. Solomon then crouches to talk to the head that just fallen. "Unless it's a farm!" he says to the head.
I hoped you all liked this one.
Next is the Meet the Engineer parody.
See you then!
