He was also very excited to meet both [[Jules]] and [[Romea]], and like Jules, didn't really seem to register Romea's sardonic behavior, instead being more awed by the fact that a Seviper liked Zangoose. Where Panto's personality shines the most, however, is in the heat of battle, during which he proves to be just as much of a prankster as outside of battle. Often, he starts the battle by setting up a Trick Room to make faster opponents move second (although [[Serkis]] took full advantage of that due to knowing two priority moves), and also enjoys using Baton Pass to switch himself out with other members of Braker's team. Thus far, he is the only one of Braker's mons to actively seem to have fun during battles, and he likes seeing other Pokemon (such as Serkis) enjoy themselves to. To him, battling is a game, and Panto is all too happy to make it as much fun as possible.

Panto is Leonard Braker's Shiny Mr. Mime, and the sixth Pokemon he acquired on his journey.

Personality

While not as excitable as Cuddles or as derpy as Jules, Panto is still very much a fun-loving and exuberant individual. He is relatively lighthearted and playful, and enjoys playing practical jokes on other people and Pokemon, especially upon first meeting them. His first meeting with Serkis, for instance, had him pull out a joy buzzer prank when shaking Serkis' hand-- which Serkis was slightly amused by. Panto can also be a bit of a klutz sometimes, often tripping over his own two feet or over some other object. He can also sometimes trip over his words, and has a bit of an impediment wherein he shortens longer words or superlative adverbs- "snuggliest", for example, comes out as "snugglist", and "impediment" comes out as "impident". Despite this, however, Panto is extremely eager to meet new people and Pokemon, especially J-Team members. In particular, he was excited to meet Serkis after hearing his story from his Woobat friends in the Reflection Cave, and was even more awed to learn soon afterwards that Serkis had been caught by Braker. He was also very excited to meet both Jules and Romea, and like Jules, didn't really seem to register Romea's sardonic behavior, instead being more awed by the fact that a Seviper liked Zangoose. Where Panto's personality shines the most, however, is in the heat of battle, during which he proves to be just as much of a prankster as outside of battle. Often, he starts the battle by setting up a Trick Room to make faster opponents move second (although Serkis took full advantage of that due to knowing two priority moves), and also enjoys using Baton Pass to switch himself out with other members of Braker's team. Thus far, he is the only one of Braker's mons to actively seem to have fun during battles, and he likes seeing other Pokemon (such as Serkis) enjoy themselves to. To him, battling is a game, and Panto is all too happy to make it as much fun as possible.
