A version of Elliot in a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon universe, and a major character in my Pokémon fanfiction Dreamers of Destiny
Elliot was born into a long line of famous Lucario paladins, sworn to protect the innocent and uphold justice. His father in particular he admired more than anyone in the world, and even as a Riolu, Elliot was determined to live up to his family's legacy. However, one day, Elliot's father mysteriously vanished, with his mother passing away not long after. Lost and distraught, he later meets a Zeraora cub named Tyler and a scorbunny named Gina, and together, the 3 would be unwittingly dragged along into a multi-dimensional plot to reshape the world as they know it...
Elliot often keeps to himself, preferring to observe something passively rather than engaging it directly. He serves as the unofficial leader of his rescue team, suggesting strategies and potential weaknesses to his teammates Tyler and Gina. While his experience in a fight is nothing to scoff at, perhaps more important is his experience in applying his knowledge in high-intensity situations. The solutions he comes up with are certainly not flawless, but his plans always carry minimum risk and are implementable with ease.
Elliot fights with a hammer, a family heirloom passed down for generations, imbued with the mystical power of aura. In any fight, Elliot always fights defensively to protect his squad mates, positioning himself so that his shield can minimise the damage any incoming attacks. Of course, don't interpret this as Elliot being unwilling to fight offensively, as anyone who was unfortunate enough to be on the wrong end of his hammer can attest, when the fight turns south, Elliot will stay back and fight until his last breath to ensure the safety of his friends. Some would say that this determination indicates a lack of strategic thought, but there is always one thing and one thing only on his mind: how to bring his friends home alive.
