Skid, short for Skidmark, is Castor's starter, and is a Johtohian Venipede, meaning she packs the unique typing of Steel/Poison.

Skid is the heart of the team, and sees no challange as too great for her. She is loyal and cooperative, but ultimately reckless. Before evolving, she would stay inside Castor's bag instead of in her ball. However, she quickly became too big for that, and now is only outside of her ball when space allows. She serves as something of a service animal to Castor, sensing when they are about to have an episode through a variety of signals- signals she as a bug-like Pokémon are more sensitive to.

Being Castor's first caught Pokemon aside from Skid, Hemp makes Castor's friends laugh through his sheer ridiculousness.

Hemp spends a lot of her time not exactly sure where she is, disassociated and high off her own Sweet Scent. For the most part, she's very chill, content to be handled and stroked. However, when hit in combat, he flies into uncontrollable rage, stomping his little feet and ignoring commands from Castor entirely.

Caught through appealing to his vanity, Hats swiftly became a core member of the team, striking down even the fiercest of foes.

Hats is prideful, and arrogant, spending much time preening herself by puddles. Despite this, she has a firm fondness for her trainer, riding upon their shoulder with blissful gusto. They will offer those they're fond of molted feathers from their preening, presenting them like trophies. On evolution, Hats kept his arrogance, being a core member of Castor's team in the Johtoh League Tournament, and a staple member of their team as an Elite 4 Member.

After defeating Dialga with the rest of their squad, Castor was exhausted. Deciding to take a break, they returned home to reconnect with their family. It was on this journey home they met an extremely friendly Sliggoo that they decided to name Textiles.

Textiles is as social as they come, cuddling his trainer and being enthusiastic about the concept of friendship. Castor trained Textiles by encouraging his cuddly tendancies, teaching him a unique tactic of grappling his foes to leave them unable to move. Being typeballed, he has a special typing unexpected for a Goodra, meaning it is difficult to anticipate his and Castor's tactics.

Guarding over the time gear, Noble stood firm and unmoving, until he sighted intruders- humans. Percieving them as a danger, he attacked, but he was misguided. These people meant no harm- and in his distraction, the true danger passed.

Castor earned his trust and brought him along on the journey to stop Refueled Rocket and liberate Dialga from its madness. After the victory, Castor attempted to release him, return him to his duty as they promised they would - but he chose to stay with them. Noble has become Castor's staple "mega" Pokémon, however it is just as likely to see him running an Assault Vest, and having tricks up his sleeves.

Reunited after 14 years, Spikey is the first Pokémon Castor ever bonded with. Now, they are both adults, ready to travel the world together...

The two are happy to be together again, though Spikey and Skid appear to have quite a rivalry - arguing about who's more loyal to their trainer, and who was the first pokemon Castor trained.
