Michael the Charmeleon, also known as "Mike" or "Mikemander" to many. In his possession is a White Feather that bears resemblance to the feather in Estoc's hat.

Relations

Chill's indebted partner as part of the Guild Leaders for the Rescuers. He is son of Syrup and brother to Maple. It is possible that Mike has a love interest in Almond, but more has yet to be seen.

Background

Birth

According to Syrup in an interview, his egg was found in a lonely nest in the Prismatic Jungle. There were no traces of his blood parents, who would have been around the nest anyways, suggesting that they either abandoned the egg, or a worse fate fell on them. Syrup then took the egg home, intending to consume it. After boiling it, Michael hatched out of the egg, just as Syrup was about to bite into it. Yearning for a child of her own, Syrup decided to take in Michael as her own child.

Childhood

As Mike was growing up under the care of Syrup, he didn't take too well in the lifestyle of a Rogue, but his skills in adventuring flourished. One day, he was kidnapped by a Scrafty who was trying to make a living off kidnappings and ransom money, and was powerless to save himself or be saved as his mother was currently full with Maple's egg. He was then rescued by a Minccino with a pair of chipped and damaged sunglasses, and the experience of being rescued was what made Mike want to become a Rescuer.

Even though Mike was determined not to be raised as a Rogue, he learned many adventuring skills from his mom, including her sure-fire Flamethrower attack.

Tao Village

Mike was tired of being forced to learn the sneaky tactics and measures that went along with being a Rogue, so he decided to leave for Tao Village in search of the Rescuers' Guild. Full of aspiration, he was equally full of naivety as well. After being swindled by PK, signed into a contract with Devonshire, and nearly having become lunch for Gunpowder, Mike was down on his luck when Chill spotted him. After being renewed with vigor, Mike would agree to become Chill's lifelong partner and co-leader of the Rescuers.

Interests

Mike's favorite food is eggs (especially the yolk) and he tends to prefer cheap, bulk foods such as bread, cheese, ramen, and soup due to his upbringing. Every month he enjoys an ice cream sundae down at the Spinda Cafe.

Missions and Events

Mike's hat gets stolen by Almond, and he issues out a mission request to all the Rescuers to go and obtain his hat back. Eventually, the Rescuers succeed in re-obtaining Mike's hat from Almond.

Mission 2

Chill orders Mike to go with willing Rescuers to rescue the kidnapped Sapling Villagers from Merlot, who resides in Castle Draclugia. Mike momentarily gets captured by Merlot, and forced to wear a frilly maid dress. However, with the efforts of the other Rescuers, he frees the Sapling Villagers and they escape Draclugia Castle.

Event 2

After losing his fireworks in Creeping Forest, Zhu was guided by PK to Mike and Chill where they told him they could help but to go to the Rogues to find his bag. He then got teams to help retrieve the fireworks.

Mission 3

Mike receives a letter from his mother, stating that they are coming over to Tao Village in order to accept a trophy for Rogue recognition. Fearing that Syrup would be persuaded to stay in Tao Village, he organizes Rescuers to assist him in crashing the Rogue party. It fails, but after talking with Syrup, she was persuaded by Mike to go back to her home and not stay in Tao Village any longer. Mike's sister, however, decides to stay and live with Mike after falling in love with Chill.

Mission 5

After witnessing the Rescuer's Headquarters suffer massive damage due to Kyurem's rampage, he quickly accused Shroomsworth of the Merchants plotting the destruction of Tao Village. He was informed that this was not the case, and ended up help to evacuate Tao Ranch with Sandy.

Once everyone was safely evacuated to the tunnels, Mike was reunited with Chrysanthos and Shroomsworth. With their help, he guided everyone safely through and into Merlot's library, despite Shroomsworth's misgivings about the rogues and Devonshire's suspicious tunnel.

Mission 6

After finding the Rescuer's treehouse in ruins, Mike approached PK about getting it repaired. It turned out he hadn't paid the insurance last month, and so she refused. He consulted Devonshire for a solution, but there was nothing that could be done despite having paid for years. Mike had a breakdown after this and left the village for Gambitville to get his mother's (Syrup's) advise.

Event 6

Mike returns to Tao Village, bringing along with him Opal from Gambitville. He brought along some gems to repay PK for rebuilding the treehouse, however, he found out that wasn't needed since she had nothing to do with rebuilding the Rescuer's headquarters. Malt was bringing Mike up to speed on what had happened to the village and its residence during his leave when Jasmine appears in front of the two. The Celebi tells all the guild leaders to gather everyone in the village and begin planting seeds in the surrounding area.

Event 6.2

After Jasmine failed to show up and bloom all the seeds the villagers had planted, a Zorua child appears, telling PK and the others that her mother had kidnapped the green fairy and was planning on killing her. Mike lead the Rescuers and Merchants through the Illusory Forest and surrounded Shade, awaiting on PK's signal to attack.

Mission 7

Mike, along with Master Foo, Vertigo, and some members of the Merchant] guild, found himself in the Prismatic Jungle and had to rescue Sherri from the grasps of one of Tivoli's men. Once Sherri was safe, Mike stayed behind in the jungle while the rest headed to Monochrome Tower because his tail flame had grown and would tip off Tivoli where the villagers were.

Once alone in the jungle, the tyrant quickly caught up to Charmander and began to threaten him. Mike evolved, attacked Tivoli, giving him a scar on his stomach, and was able to make his way to Monochrome Tower to meet with the others.

Event 7

Mike meets up with the others in a mysterious village filled with Zoroack whom resemble Shade, though these villagers appear to be pacifists. Jasmine suddenly appears to feel better and attempts to teleport everyone back into the present, but fell short of her goal and collapsed. The group finds themselves in Tao Village but in the past when PK's grandfather, Micle was in charge. Realizing that the group was not from around here, or from this time, the Grand Kec suggests that everyone writes a letter to their friends in the present, which he would then store in a large green "time box." Mike decides to write a letter to both Maple and Fresnel.
