Shroomy
Shroomy is Poppy's Breloom, and the second she acquired during the Neo-Sinnoh Arc.
Personality
Mild-mannered, Shroomy goes about his own way. He is friendly, and doesn't like those who are not friendly. He leaps into action to protect those he cares about, and stands up to enemies much bigger than him. He aspires to be stronger so he can protect people and fight off enemies more efficiently, and he is full of surprises. He also sort of 'parents' the other team members, acting as a dad to them - which can get him overwhelmed.
Backstory
Shroomy lived in the Safari Zone for a while, until one day when a Donphan going on a rampage forced him to leave. Living in the wild for some time, he was inspired by Poppy's display of courage to protect the Zone, which led him to join her team. Otherwise, not much else is known about his backstory.
Details
- Birthday: 13th of June, 2022
- Age: 1
- Met: Route 121 (caught aboard the Ranger helicopter)
- Ability: Poison Heal
- Ball: Poke Ball
- Headcanon Voice: Kermit the Frog of The Muppets
Battle Strategy
Shroomy's favorite opener in battle is to hit the opponent with either a Spore or Leech Seed. Then, he'll maybe fire off a Seed Bomb or two, or hit the opponent with the other opening move he didn't use at the start of the battle. When it comes to physical attack, he hits his opponents with Headbutt. If he is inflicted with a status condition, however, he will start to panic - unless he's inflicted with poison, which, thanks to his Poison Heal ability, actually heals him.
Known Techniques
- Leech Seed, Seed Bomb, Spore
- Drain Punch
- Headbutt
Relationships
- Poppy: Shroomy treats Poppy as a respectable trainer, and feels he can trust her no matter what.
- Donut: The two do not get along due to Donut's unwillingness to trust anyone besides himself, Poppy, and her family or otherwise associates. Only time will tell if Donut will improve.
- Sunrise: The two get along rather well as he knows she's a teammate that won't treat him like garbage, and he goes along with her ideas.
- Crusher: Due to him being the little scared kid of the team, Shroomy looks out for Crusher.
- Nessa: He would parent Nessa, but Donut already does that for him. So instead, he treats her as simply a friend.
- Stormwind: Shroomy is often exasperated by Stormwind's ego and often-occurring delusions of grandeur.
- Lila: Due to them being both Grass types, Shroomy tries to get Lila to see him as a good example for her to follow. Lila, however, is not interested in acting like him.
