This idea was started in the Pokemon thread, and it was decided that it would be moved so that it didn't take up most of the conversation there.
This is the story of Braviary and Mandibuzz, a couple trying to raise their kids, Rufflet and Vullaby, as they all go about their daily lives.
Here is the cast of characters, as it currently stands.
The Adults
Braviary: The father of Rufflet and Vullaby and husband of Mandibuzz, he has to deal with his wacky boss, Cacturne, and try to keeps his kids out of trouble.
Mandibuzz: The Deadpan Snarker wife of Braviary, and mother of Rufflet and Vullaby. She works as an outings organizer for any social gatherings that take place.
Cacturne: Braviary's boss, who is quick to fire him on the slightest of slip-ups, though it never sticks.
Garchomp: A pro athlete, who secretly takes Rare Candies to "enhance his performance".
Zoroark: An old crone living alone, she doesn't like to be disturbed.
Zangoose & Seviper: The childless neighbors of Braviary and Mandibuzz, they fight almost constantly and always seem seconds away from coming to blows, though they never have.
Mrs. Vespiquen: Rufflets teacher, she dislikes him because he is always pulling pranks with his friends, like leaving Spikes on her chair before class.
Mr. Skitty: A single father of a Wailmer, he does his best to provide for his enormous child.
Dodrio: The central head is a Crazy Cat Lady towards all Skittys, and she constantly tries to adopt Mr. Skitty. The left head is a French, male, Only Sane Man named Pierre, who the other heads can't understand. The right head is just generally loopy.
Staraptor & Pidgeot: Braviary's closest friends and drinking buddies, they are a Red Oni, Blue Oni due towards eachother. Staraptor, one of the few pokemon who Cacturne actually fired, now tries to earn money through Get-Rich-Quick schemes, while Pidgeot tries to make sure he doesn't get into too much trouble.
Spinda: The bartender at the towns local pub, The Tipsy Tavern, he is always in the state between sobriety and drunkness, but can't ever get passed that, no matter how much he drinks. He also has a habit of making Gargle Blaster s, which only he can withstand.
Electrode: The schools principal.
Conkeldurr: The schools gym teacher, and also coach of all the sports in the school. He enrolls his son in all the sports and hypes his son up to be the next Garchomp, which has given Timburr a major superiority complex.
Scyther: A common visitor to Spindas pub, he is a Private Investigator and Conspiracy Theorist, and has the habit of letting the two mix, leading to him mistaking something as simply unlucky as, say, food poisoning, and claiming the sufferer was being poisoned. He is always looking for "THE TRUTH" but despite his oddities, he is always trying to help.
Honchkrow: He is the leader of the Honchkrow mafia, consisting of Him, his lackey, Murkrow and anything he can create with Double Team. He has a habit of sending Murkrow on literally impossible tasks, such as robbing a bank yesterday, though Murkrow usually just goes to drink at the pub.
Murkrow: One of Braviarys drinking buddies, he is somewhat mysterious about his job and since he is a very affable fellow, Braviary and pals usually just leave the subject alone when he is there, and occasionally speculate on where he works when he is gone.
The Children
Rufflet: The mischievous son of Mandibuzz and Braviary, and Vullaby's brother.
Vullaby: The daughter of Braviary and Mandibuzz, and sister of Rufflet. She is the proud owner of a lemonade stand which she made herself.
Karrablast: One of Rufflets friends, he is the son of Escavalier and is rather lax about schoolwork, though he can be trusted to get things done when asked by his friends. His father is trying to get him into a more diligent work ethic, so he can follow in his footsteps.
Abra: Another of Rufflets friends, he is The Smart Guy of Rufflets trio of friends, and is Brilliant, but Lazy unless he is coming up with another plan for Rufflet and Karrablast to try out.
Kirlia: Vullabys best friend, she is a gossip, and while she tries to tell the truth whenever she can, sometimes she only catches part of a conversation, and runs off to spread an out of context tidbit to everyone.
Timburr: The son of Conkeldurr, he is very strong and athletic due to his fathers habit of enrolling him in every sport. He has a massive superiority complex because of all the attention his father pays to him and all the hype he hears from him.
