* Sanders - MacArthur's partner in crime fighting and mystery solving. She enjoys eating shredded pork sandwiches, snacking on honey, drinking sweet tea, solving mysteries and cracking cases. Sanders is also half-Lucario and takes MacArthur's place in some battles when she is too sick, too sleepy, unable or unprepared to fight.
