Species/Gender: Mawile, male Level: 81 (+5) Nature/Characteristic: Adamant, thoroughly cunning Ability: Hyper Cutter Held Item: N/A
About Ziva's starter when she arrived in Johto for the second time, Ziva named him for her father due to his species (Deciever Pokemon) and his nature, which is rather serious and determined. In short, the creature reminded her of the best aspects of her father. Luckily, he seems to have few of the worst ones. After a small hiccup with being unable to attack most of the Pokemon they encountered in the beginning routes, Eli caught up quickly once he was taught Return thanks to Albert.
About Ziva encountered Jenny after many days on Route 29, and was honestly surprised that Eli was able to attack her. After some time getting to know the little lion, Ziva decided to name her after her late friend and Director of NCIS, Jenny Shepard. She's done the name proud ever since. Jenny evolved for the last time outside Saffron City, at level 32.

About Also encountered on Route 29, a victim of Eli's excitement and desire to show off. Oops. Jimmy likes to slime people's feet and tell bad jokes that no one else understands, even if they do speak Pokemon. The name was obvious, really. Despite his insecurity Eli beating the shit out of him upon first meeting totally didn't help that, Ziva's pretty sure he has the hidden capability to be a badass, so she pushes him as hard as his namesake, but it's all in love really. He evolved at level 31.
Species/Gender: Scolipede, male Level: 66 (+5) Nature/Characteristic: Gentle, thoroughly cunning Ability: Poison Point Held Item: N/A
About Encountered when Ziva was suddenly dropped in Ilex Forest after the Fourth Wall event in November. Despite the nature of his species (not to mention his ability), Malachi is far more gentle and calm than anything, which reminded Ziva of an old Mossad partner. Moreso the calm part than the gentle. He is also very determined and protective of Ziva, in his own way. That is, somewhat aloof but if you mess with her he'll probably try to bite you. Overall, she likes this Malachi much better. Malachi evolved into Whirlipede at level 22, and Scolipede at 30.
About Sweet and insecure, Laila takes some time to get used to new people--but once she does, she loves being around them. She tended to try and hide in Ziva's hair when she was a Hoothoot, but since evolving made her far too large to do so, and settled for preening it instead. Despite being shy, in battle she's a bit of a raging banshee. She was passed to Hiccup when Ziva left Johto the first time, but Hiccup gave her back when they met again.
Species/Gender: Growlithe, female Level: 63 (+5) Nature/Characteristic: Brave, mischievous Ability: Flash Fire Held Item: N/A
About Met on Route 34, Abby is a Growlithe of cheerful and loving nature--it was only fitting that Ziva name her after Abby. She's fiercely protective, but always eager to meet new people and happy to play. She's also incredibly intelligent and quickly masters new tricks. She doesn't really like to fight, though, but will if she's pressed. Ziva doesn't push her nearly as hard as the rest of her team and is content to let the puppy set its own pace for growth. She's not overly fond of Malachi, and since he evolved she pushes herself harder to catch up to him. She also dotes on Jethro and the two of them are practically inseparable.
About Ziva's Christmas 2012 egg, hatched January 3rd. Shy, very attached to Ziva. After researching what she'd evolve into, Ziva gave her the name of her little sister--and assured her that she'd grow into it. She's driven to evolve because she wishes to be able to fly, and therefore pushes herself hard, even if she doesn't particularly like to fight. She finally got a pair of wings when she evolved to Vibrava at level 35, outside Saffron City, and gained her final evolution at level 45.
Species/Gender: Houndour, male Level: 40 (+5) Nature/Characteristic: Quiet, thoroughly cunning Ability: Flash Fire Held Item: N/A
About Purchased from Aradia and Jake's egg sale on the 15th of January, hatched on January 22nd. Ziva cannot have him and Eli or Jethro out at the same time, because Ari hates them and will attack both on sight. That and his attachment to both Ziva and Tali and the fact that she previously had a Houndoom named Ari and history is doomed to repeat itself made her name him after her brother in a fit of dark humor. He's quiet, but obviously very smart and actually somewhat vicious. If Ziva is scared of any of her team, it's him. Since evolving to a Houndoom at level 24, he's only gotten more vicious--but more refined in his viciousness at the same time. Ziva can control him, but not entirely well.
About Ziva adopted Misty from Carmen in January, and she's proven to be a level and quiet presence on Ziva's team. She's the one who keeps Ari under control when the two of them are out, and because of that Ziva tends to pair them.
Species/Gender: Milotic, female Level: 32 (+5) Nature/Characteristic: Calm, somewhat vain Ability: Marvel Scale Held Item: N/A
About Purchased from Riku on January 21st. Hatched on January 26th. Ziva let her stay a Feebas for about two or three weeks while she saved up the money for a Prism Scale, and evolved her on the blitztrip through Celadon/Fuchsia/Viridian in February. She's vain, but part of her vanity is pride, so she tends to not listen to Ziva in battle.
Since she can strategize, Ziva's okay with that. She just has to make mistakes to learn.

About Part of the Great Puppyocalypse of 2013. He's quietly protective of Ziva and suspicious of everyone's motivations. He doesn't hesitate to make his displeasure known to anyone or anything and will bite the shit out of what is pissing him off, whether or not it's rather larger than him. He evolved into Mightyena at level 18, and since evolving has become even more defensive on Ziva's behalf. She usually keeps him with her because she finds his presence comforting.
