The Dirty Delinquents (full name "**Dirty Delinquents Force**") is an organization that only appears in Pokémon: Beginnings. Despite its name, anyone of any age can join, as the organization's true motives are to rebel against the status quo and "adulthood responsibilities". It is considered to be a paramilitary force comprised of rebellious Pokémon who refuse to adhere to "growing up" by society's demands. As of now, the leader of the organization is Barbeque, a Braviary.

The logo's design is mean to represent the shades worn by criminals.

## Purpose

The purpose of the Dirty Delinquents is to undo societal order that forces Pokémon to live a certain way intended by the World Government.

## Ranks

Despite not being an official Military organization, the Dirty Delinquents have ranks that determine their position and strength. There are nine ranks in total and wear cloaks with the shades logo matching its color, which also depends on the rank.

### Trainee

The most basic rank, and mostly seen among many Pokémon in the organization as they wear plain orange cloaks. Their position have various workaround jobs, even including spying on others or assisting scientists.

### Junior

The next rank up from Trainee. Unlike the Trainees, Juniors wear purple cloaks and are usually in charge of the Trainees. Sometimes they also help the Trainees with their various jobs.

### Corporal

The next rank up from Junior. They wear blue cloaks and are meant to command both the Juniors and Trainees as well as receiving and completing tasks given to them.

### Sergeant

The next rank up from Corporal. They wear brown cloaks, which is a contrast color of the Trainee's cloaks, and gives tasks to Corporals as well as being under orders from a Commander or train Trainees.

### Commander

The next rank up from Sergeant. They wear red cloaks and can command those below their ranks.

### Major

The next rank up from Commander. They wear green cloaks and take on more serious tasks, such as leading a battalion on missions and even even assist a rank of their choosing to take over a job if they are up to it.

### Colonel

The next rank up from Major. They wear light-blue cloaks and often report to the leader of things that happen around the world.

### Brigadier

The next rank up from Colonel. They wear gray cloaks and often assist the leader with more political matters such as protection, strategy and physical arms.

### Senior Head

The next rank up from Brigadier and the final rank of the Dirty Delinquents. Unlike most ranks below them, the Senior Head can only have one Pokémon fill the position, as one can command an entire organization. They also engage in political affairs and usually have Brigadiers as their bodyguards should someone pull an assassination attempt on them and have Colonels report of information about particular subjects that may either threaten or benefit the organization.

### Scientist

Unlike most ranks of the Dirty Delinquents, there are scientists in the organization and don't have any actual ranks among them. Most of them wear white cloaks and have the shades logo without the signature "DD" letters on them. They are tasked with experiments such as creating genetically enhanced Pokémon, creating more efficient equipment for the organization itself, and studying environmental usage.

### Medic

Like the scientists, medics don't have any actual ranks among them as most of them wear pink cloaks with the "DD" letters absent on them. Their role is fairly simple as they are in charge of medical treatment towards wounded members. The only one known so far as a medic to be introduced is Parfait.

## Overview

It was said that 400 years ago (430 in Pokémon: Unlimited), the organization was formed based on a few Pokémon getting tired of the status quo created by the Pokémon World Government. Over time, the few turned into many who believed that liberation would be the key to set the average Pokémon free from society's chains imposed by the government. However, the mindset of that grew corrupted over time, becoming the complete opposite of their intentions. Those that defied their views would be bombed or burned, and anyone who reveals their activity in an area will be marked by the organization, viewing them as threats. Throughout the years, they burned villages, towns and cities, leading to them being infamous for their actions.

According to Unhaus, Eve is a victim of their attacks, which resulted in the death of her parents, but as for her siblings, their whereabouts are unknown as of this time. Tanner is also a Pokémon who took part of the organization in defiance against his father Moody for freedom, but as soon as he saw just how terrifying the organization was based on their actions, he left, branding him a traitor.

## Clothing

Most of the Dirty Delinquents wear cloaks that cover from head to toe and include hoods to wear over the head. They are also designed in mind to fit every kind of Pokemon except large ones and water-based Pokemon. For large or water-based Pokemon, they get the emblems branded on their bodies to identify with them. The cloaks come in different colors depending on their rank and functionality. Despite its functions to an average cloak excluding the emblems, it carries some usefulness such as communication (established by Sorbet) without usage of a Roto-Phone through the emblem, and a high-resistance to electricity.

## Weaponry

The Dirty Delinquents can carry a variety of weapons that may fit the situation, such as miniguns, pistols, or shotguns. However, some wield other weapons such as swords, knives, nunchakus or bombs. For flying members, they can carry aerial miniguns and airzookas strapped under their wings, not even hindering their flight in the process whilst for underwater members, they can carry torpedo launchers that fire small torpedoes. Flying members also can carry Mutant Pokemon made by the organization called "Pinetorbs" and "Forretrodes", which work like bombs as they are attached to hooks on their feet and when dropped, they create explosions that vary in damage and area effect.

With that said, there is an advanced weapon such as "mech armor" that allows Pokemon to fight in it, moving in conjunction to theirs. The HX-1 is considered to be an example, even though it is the only type of mech armor out there. It carries similar functions to miniguns, but also includes things such ae holes for either energy absorption or beam launch, lasers tubes, a jetpack, and a large rocket. However, most of its functions come with some flaws, as should the user unleash attacks, it risks overheating. To reduce this, flaps on the forearms open up, allowing heat to escape and create cooldowns. It also risks in losing energy should the user not be efficient in using it.

Ironically, its design resembles Mega Heracross, being the basis for its inspiration.
