Banto and a few of his team! He’s not a trainer, but a jaded former gym leader-turned-pokemon medic. His group are all former patients that decided to stick around after he treated them. They travel with him as he goes around helping pokemon that need him, assisting at pokemon centers, and teaching lessons to willfully ignorant trainers who mistreat their pokemon.
Swampert: easy-going for the most part, but with a slow-burn temper that is really intimidating when it goes off. Sometimes it’s not clear what has set him off, but once he gets going, he will keep it up until he’s won.
Croagunk: born with a cleft pallet, he was cruelly looked over by everyone for his looks (unappealing to the masses on top of being a croagunk) until Banto and he crossed paths. They have been inseparable ever since!
Goodra: The mysterious and rare goodra is also a constant companion. Though, Banto doesn’t use pokeballs as much as your average trainer, this huge dragon type is one that can’t stay out whenever he goes into town for it’s own safety.
