Sorry for a bit of a wait, but now I'm ready to post the bios for the trio of special Tag Partners in the game, which just so happen to be three idols from various anime, and I think you'll be happy with the three I chose!
(------------------------------)
TAG PARTNERSHonoka Kousaka (Origin: Love Live!)
Specializes In: Grass-type and Bug-type Pokémon
Info: Honoka is a second year student at Otonokizaka Academy in Vocadia City as well as an aspiring idol. Her family works in a wagashi shop that's called Homura. Honoka has a cheerful personality and never gives up on anything, to the point where she will usually overexert herself. Her hobbies include swimming and also collecting stickers. Honoka likes being given these specific items; Grass Gem, Miracle Seed, Diamond, Pink Diamond, Red Grass, Orange Grass, Yellow Grass, Green Grass, Teal Grass, Blue Grass, Indigo Grass, Violet Grass, Rainbow Grass, Red-M Flower, Blue-M Flower,
Rainbow Flower, Spring Sun, Lush Sun, Leaf Stone, Sun Stone.
Note: The Rainbow Flower is Honoka's favorite item to be given.Honoka can be first seen after you've ousted Zodiac from Vocadia City, where you can go and check out Otonokizaka High School, where you'll be greeted by Honoka, who explains her plight. Her school stands in the vicinity of Vocadia City, Tristania City, and Diendye Town, creating a culture clash. Due to fewer and fewer students enrolling, the school will be closed in three years. What Honoka and eight other female students have decided to do is form a pop-idol group to increase the school's popularity. Their goal is simple, and that is to become an overnight sensation and use their region-wide media exposure to promote their school and bring in a new wave of students to the ailing school.
After talking with Honoka for the first time, she can be found at Otonokizaka High School on Monday and Friday, visiting Vocaloid Corp. with Kotori Minami on Tuesday and Thursday, enjoying Vocadia Park with Maki Nishikino on Tuesday and Thursday, and performing at the Vocadia Department Store on Wednesday. Once you have given Honoka a total of 30 items that she likes, she'll explain that interest in Otonokizaka High School in increasing and to thank you, she'll give you TM03B (Giga Drain) and will be able to be recruited as a Tag Battle Partner if you go and see her when she's at Otonokizaka High School.
Once Honoka's accessed as a Tag Battle partner, she'll follow you as long as you stay in these areas; Vocadia City, Diendeye Town, Tristania City, Jointiven Town, La Rochelle, Zuikaku City, Alden Forest, Lagdorian Lake, Route 401, Route 402, Route 406, Route 415, Route 416, Route 427, Route 428, and Route 429. If taken into Undetopia, you can go to Titanica City, the Ruined City, Spiral Cavern, Under Mountain, Route U6, Route U10, Route U13, Route U14, and Route U15. After twelve hours of real time have passed or the game is shut off, Honoka will tell you she needs to go back to her friends and will leave you.
Honoka comes with these particular Pokémon; Solaraze, Jumpluff, and Yanma, whose levels depend on how far you are in the game. (For example, if you've defeated Zodiac at Hugh & Dolittle HQ, Honoka's Pokémon will be at L35; if you've defeated Zodiac at the Halkeginia Temple, Honoka's Pokémon will be at L40.) When Honoka is following you as a Tag Battle partner, additional Trainers will appear in Alden Forest, Lagdorian Lake, and any Route Honoka will follow you on. These Trainers can only be battled when having Honoka as a Tag Battle partner and will disappear when she leaves. In addition to this, after the credits, if Honoka's been unlocked as a Tag Battle partner, she may also serve as a battle partner in Multi Battles at the Battle Academy (where she replaces Jumpluff with Sunflora in her lineup).
If Honoka has been unlocked as a Tag Battle partner, she'll appear inside the Frozen Power Plant, explaining that she's heard of Zodiac and with the stuff they've been doing, she's decided to come and help stop them. She'll serve as a Tag Battle partner against the Zodiac Grunts inside the plant, who are rearranged for Double Battles. You can also choose to have her help you out in the Subzero Maze and the first half of the Zodiac Base and can also switch her out with another Tag Battle Partner before each area. If she's with you when you see Miku, Honoka gets all excited about meeting Halkeginia's greatest idol. If you have Honoka with you inside the Zodiac Base, Unitye doesn't appear where she normally does and where Dualit appears, she will do so alongside Triana, with Triana telling Honoka to stop acting so perky. You and Honoka will have to battle Dualit and Triana together (Dualit uses Escavalier, Noivern, and Exeggutor; Triana uses Gigalith, Houndoom, and Gardevoir). After defeating them, Miku tells Honoka that it's too dangerous for her and to head back outside, which Honoka does. Where Triana would appear normally, Unitye will be encountered instead (and is holding Louise captive) and battled there. After Graves is defeated and you've left the Zodiac Base, Honoka is shocked to find out what Zodiac is going to do as well as who Zodiac's leader is.
Also, after recruiting her as a Tag Battle partner, you can give Honoka 10 more items that she likes. If you do, she'll offer to trade a Hoppip for any one of your Pokémon. The Hoppip in question has good IV's, has Leaf Guard as its ability, and knows the moves Leaf Shield and Cotton Guard. After the credits, if you go to see Honoka at Otonokizaka Academy (she has to be unlocked as a Tag Battle partner first), you can have a battle with her. You can only battle her once a day.
Nagisa Motomiya (Origin: AKB0048)
Specializes In: Fire-type and Fairy-type Pokémon
Info: Nagisa is a thirteen-year old girl who often doesn't have a lot of confidence, but aspires to be a true AKB0048 idol alongside her friends. She wears a ribbon given to her by her mother, who supported her decision to audition for AKB0048 despite the disapproval of her father, who works with Germania's entertainment-banning activities. Nagisa likes being given these items; Fairy Gem, Fairy Crystal, Diamond, Pink Diamond, Red Crystite, Orange Crystite, Yellow Crystite, Green Crystite, Teal Crystite, Blue Crystite, Indigo Crystite, Violet Crystite, Rainbow Crystite,
Sparkling Ribbon, Lunar Ribbon, Radiant Ribbon, Red-M Flower, Blue-M Flower, Summer Sun, Sun Stone.
Note: The Sparkling Ribbon is Nagisa's favorite item to be given.Nagisa, or "Acchan" as her friends call her, can be first seen when you reach Morningsea City in a building called Center Nova. When you meet her, she'll explain that the Germania kingdom in Halkeginia bans entertainment and has done so for as long as anyone can remember, the reason being that it goes against Germanian traditions. Nagisa reveals that she's part of a pop idol group called AKB0048, which has for a long time been trying to get the entertainment ban in Germania lifted, and that due to treaties made after the Halkeginia Unification War, the region's monarchy is forbidden from directly interfering with Germania's laws. She reveals that while AKB0048 can always go to other kingdoms in the region, it's not right that things such as pop idol groups aren't allowed in Germania and that they hope to change that.
After talking with Nagisa for the first time, she can be found at Center Nova on Sunday and Saturday, at the top of Fairy Tower with Chieri Sono on Monday and Friday (once Zodiac has been defeated at Hugh & Dolittle HQ), with Kanata Shinonome at Hakouh Academy on Tuesday and Thursday, and outside of Hugh & Dolittle HQ on Wednesday. Once you've given Nagisa a total of 30 items that she likes, she'll bring up that AKB0048 is getting a lot of support from groups like the Hakouh Academy Yacht Club, Starlight Academy, Otonokizaka High School, Vocaloid Corp., Tristain Academy, and is even getting support from outside Halkeginia, stating that Cynthia of Sinnoh, Iris of Unova, Diantha of Kalos, and even Princess Bonnie of Nostrum are pledging theirs! As thanks for helping her, she'll give you TM59A (Incinerate) and will be able to be recruited as a Tag Battle Partner if you go and see her when she's at Center Nova.
Once Nagisa's accessed as a Tag Battle partner, she'll follow you as long as you stay in these areas; Morningsea City, Misaki City, Stratogen Town, Accelise City, Vindobona City, Flamaze Tunnel, Nephys Oasis, Maze Pyramid, Route 417, Route 418, Route 419, Route 420, Route 421, Route 422, Route 423, and Route 424. If taken to Undetopia, you can go to Magma Lake, Halkeginia Temple, Spiral Cavern, Route U7, and Route U8. After twelve hours of real time have passed or the game is shut off, Nagisa will tell you she needs to meet up with the rest of AKB0048 and will leave you.
Nagisa comes with these particular Pokémon; Fletchinder, Larvesta, and Posixie, whose levels depend on how far you are in the game. (For example, if you've reached Vindobona City, Nagisa's Pokémon will be at L45; if you've obtained the Tropic Badge, Nagisa's Pokémon will be at L50.) When Nagisa is following you as a Tag Battle partner, additional Trainers will appear in Flamaze Tunnel, Nephys Oasis, and any Route Nagisa will follow you on. These Trainers can only be battled when having Nagisa as a Tag Battle partner and will disappear when she leaves. In addition to this, after the credits, if Nagisa's been unlocked as a Tag Battle partner, she may also serve as a battle partner in Multi Battles at the Battle Academy (where she replaces Volcarona with Rotom (Heat) in her lineup).
If Nagisa has been unlocked as a Tag Battle partner, she'll appear inside the Frozen Power Plant, explaining that Zodiac once threatened AKB0048, which scared her, but she's gotten over that fear and wants to help stop them. She'll serve as a Tag Battle partner against the Zodiac Grunts inside the plant, who are rearranged for Double Battles. You can also choose to have her help you out in the Subzero Maze and the first half of the Zodiac Base and can also switch her out with another Tag Battle Partner before each area. If she's with you when you see Miku, Miku tells Nagisa that she's proud of what AKB0048 is doing. If you have Nagisa with you inside the Zodiac Base, Unitye doesn't appear where she normally does and where Dualit appears, she will do so alongside Triana, with Dualit telling Nagisa that she should wear a better ribbon. You and Nagisa will have to battle Dualit and Triana together (Dualit uses Escavalier, Noivern, and Exeggutor; Triana uses Gigalith, Houndoom, and Gardevoir). After defeating them, Miku tells Nagisa that it's too dangerous for her and to head back outside, which Nagisa does. Where Triana would appear normally, Unitye will be encountered instead (and is holding Louise captive) and battled there. After Graves is defeated and you've left the Zodiac Base, Nagisa is a bit scared with what Zodiac's leader is going to do with Infiran/Zerion.
Also, after recruiting her as a Tag Battle partner, you can give Nagisa 10 more items that she likes. If you do, she'll offer to trade a Larvesta for any one of your Pokémon. The Larvesta in question has good IV's, has Flame Body as its ability, and knows the moves Flare Blitz, Hornet Chaser, and Morning Sun. After the credits, if you go to see Nagisa at Center Nova (she has to be unlocked as a Tag Battle partner first), you can have a battle with her. You can only battle her once a day.
Ichigo Hoshimiya (Origin: Aikatsu!)
Specializes In: Electric-type and Light-type Pokémon
Info: Ichigo is a twelve-year old middle school freshman in Audilia City. After joining Starlight Academy, her career as an idol began. Ichigo is a complete novice, but is also optimistic and works hard in order to let her talent bloom. She doesn't know much about the entertainment world, but always has her best friend, Aoi Kiriya, teach her. Ichigo likes being given these specific items; Electric Gem, Light Gem, Flash Prism, Fairy Crystal, Diamond, Pink Diamond, Ruby, Garnet, Topaz, Emerald, Crystal, Sapphire, Mythril, Amethyst,
Magical Ribbon, Sunny Ribbon, Starry Ribbon, Rainbow Flower, Thunderstone, Shiny Stone.
Note: The Magical Ribbon is Ichigo's favorite item to be given.Ichigo can be first seen after you've acquired the Necro Badge. If you go back to Audilia City, you'll be able to enter Starlight Academy, where you'll meet Ichigo. She explains that Starlight Academy is a prestigious school where girls train to become idols and take part in various auditions, and that she along with her Aoi Kiriya has come here in order to become an idol. However, Ichigo explains that she's currently a novice and would like to get support from people such as you.
After talking with Ichigo for the first time, she can be found at Starlight Academy on Tuesday and Thursday, outside of the 961 Pro building with Aoi Kiriya on Monday and Friday, at Audilia Café with Ran Shibuki on Saturday and Sunday, and at the Pokémon Center/Mart on Wednesday. Once you've given Ichigo a total of 30 items that she likes, Ichigo will tell you that she's starting to get better as an idol and might even get a break soon. As thanks for helping her, she'll give you TM26B (Volt Switch) and will be able to be recruited as a Tag Battle Partner if you go and see her when she's at Starlight Academy.
Once Ichigo's accessed as a Tag Battle partner, she'll follow you as long as you stay in these areas; Audilia City, Nekaratai Town, Lutéce City, Tigerlily City, Romalia City, Stone Circle, Route 403, Route 404, Route 405, Route 407, Route 408, Route 410, Route 411, Route 412, Route 413, and Route 414. If taken into Undetopia, you can go to Ancient Forest, Toxic Swamp, Spiral Cavern, Frost Lake, Route U1, Route U2, Route U3, Route U4, Route U5, Route U9, Route U11, and Route U12. After twelve hours of real time have passed or the game is shut off, Ichigo will tell you that she needs to return to Starlight Academy and will leave you.
Ichigo comes with these particular Pokémon; Lanturn, Heliolisk, and Jokelit, whose levels depend on how far you are in the game. (For example, if you've defeated Zodiac at the Halkeginia Temple, Ichigo's Pokémon are at L40; if you've reached Vindobona City, Ichigo's Pokémon will be at L45.) When Ichigo is following you as a Tag Battle partner, additional Trainers will appear in the Stone Circle and any Route Ichigo will follow you on. These Trainers can only be battled when having Ichigo as a Tag Battle partner and will disappear when she leaves. In addition to this, after the credits, if Ichigo's been unlocked as a Tag Battle partner, she may also serve as a battle partner in Multi Battles at the Battle Academy (where she replaces Heilolisk with Chillspark in her lineup).
If Ichigo has been unlocked as a Tag Battle partner, she'll appear inside the Frozen Power Plant, telling you since you helped her out at Starlight Academy, she wants to return to favor by helping you stop Zodiac. She'll serve as a Tag Battle partner against the Zodiac Grunts inside the plant, who are rearranged for Double Battles. You can also choose to have her help you out in the Subzero Maze and the first half of the Zodiac Base and can also switch her out with another Tag Battle Partner before each area. If she's with you when you see Miku, Miku greets Ichigo, which causes Ichigo to get nervous for a moment. If you have Ichigo with you inside the Zodiac Base, Unitye doesn't appear where she normally does and where Dualit appears, she will do so alongside Triana, with Dualit dissing Ichigo's outfit. You and Ichigo will have to battle Dualit and Triana together (Dualit uses Escavalier, Noivern, and Exeggutor; Triana uses Gigalith, Houndoom, and Gardevoir). After defeating them, Miku tells Ichigo that it's too dangerous for her and to head back outside, which Ichigo does. Where Triana would appear normally, Unitye will be encountered instead (and is holding Louise captive) and battled there. After Graves is defeated and you've left the Zodiac Base, Ichigo says that she knew the person who turned out to be Zodiac's leader was no good to begin with.
Also, after recruiting her as a Tag Battle partner, you can give Ichigo 10 more items that she likes. If you do, she'll offer to trade a Chinchou for any one of your Pokémon. The Chinchou in question has good IV's, has Volt Absorb as its ability, and knows the moves Thunder Beam and Amnesia. After the credits, if you go see Ichigo at Starlight Academy (she has to be unlocked as a Tag Battle partner first), you can have a battle with her. You can only battle her once a day.
(------------------------------)
On a related topic with the characters present, I tried to make their stories fit in to where they're from, such as to go with AKB0048's story, Germania bans entertainment and AKB0048 hoping to change that. In fact, if you helped her out, in the post-game Nagisa reveals that the new queen is opening up negotiations with Germania in order to get the entertainment ban abolished and will have AKB0048 as representatives.
Also, the Pokémon that they'll trade you do have full movesets. I just listed some of the moves. Also, back to an earlier bio, the Sunkarill that Jenny will trade you also comes with good IV's.
