Well, in story mode, I was pikachu,who i named kirby(as in the kirby from dreamland), and torchic as my partner. We are both in level 35 (or possibly level 36). But even though I beat story mode, I still didn't evolve torchic yet! I sometimes also bring along Zapdos with me in dungeons. And I named my team "Pokemon21". Not sure why but then I knew that it is technically the 21st century. I wonder if you can change your team name...
