/NAME
Zane Rodgers
/AGE
17
/DOB
October 3rd
/GENDER
Male
/RELATIONSHIPS
His mother, Sheryl – a famous ex-top-coordinator – teaches the Pokémon Coordinator course at Professor Bill’s academy.
/ROLE
Pokémon Trainer and Pokémon Connoisseur (C-Class)

/APPEARANCE
Physical appearance: At average height for his age - perhaps an inch or two taller – Zane stands at about 5’11. His is of average weight yet his build is lithe and slender, perhaps even a bit on the feminine side. He is Caucasian, his skin sporting a yellowish-olive undertone, and he has been told that his face has a heart-like shape to it. Zane has thin lips and big, piercing royal blue eyes that can see through anything fake. His hair is honey-blonde and stylishly sticks out everywhere and it reaches the nape of his neck.
(Still having trouble picturing Zane? Click here.)

Clothing and accessories: Despite the daily effort he puts into styling his hair, Zane doesn’t care much about what others think of his clothes. But he surprisingly has a very good sense of style – he knows what looks good on him, and what doesn’t; what he likes and doesn’t like. Normally he wears a red (actually its pink but he says its red) and black striped shirt with three-quarter sleeves. Zane also wears his signature blue, pink, & purple skull jacket (as seen in the picture) and red and black skull sweat-bands around both his wrists. On his lower half, Zane sports a pair of black skinny-jeans and a silver studded belt that hangs a bit lopsidedly around his waist. To finish off the look, Zane wears a pair of red skater shoes that are the same shade of red as the stripes on his shirt. Out of his right pants pocket hangs a long, black, braided-leather key-chain, but instead of keys, Zane keeps his pokeballs on the other end of the key-chain.

/HISTORY
When Zane was little, his parents went through a nasty divorce and his father, David, moved to the Unova Region. So, Zane was raised by his mother in Cerulean, her teacher’s salary being just enough for the two of them to live a comfortable life. Zane had an easy time getting into the academy, and not just because his mother worked there. Zane was always a bright kid, and it especially showed in his school work and music.

Zane kept in contact with his father and went to visit him during holidays and such; although, those visits started becoming less and less frequent ever since David remarried when Zane was fourteen. (The woman David married had children of her own from a previous marriage, and it was clear Zane’s new step-mother favored them to himself.)

However, around that same time, while Zane was visiting his father in Striaton City during his summer break from the academy, he met Cilan, a Pokémon Connoisseur. Zane witnessed Cilan judge the compatibility of his step-siblings’ Pokémon and in that moment, Zane knew he wanted to become a Pokémon Connoisseur. Zane talked to Cilan, who agreed to mentor him and help him prepare for the test he would have to take to become a Connoisseur. Sheryl supported her son’s decision fully but David said that being a Connoisseur was worse than being a male Coordinator. Zane decided then and there to fully break off all ties with his father.

Zane took whatever chance he could to go to Unova and study under Cilan - and he avoided his father by staying at the local Pokémon Center. When Zane was sixteen, he passed the Connoisseur’s Exam and became an official Pokémon Connoisseur – granted he was only C-class with much still to learn. Zane began to work as Cilan’s assistant and decided that he would compare Pokémon's and it’s owner‘s compatibility to music, instead of food like Cilan does.

During his studies under Cilan, Zane also studied very hard at Bill’s Academy back in Cerulean, not getting in too much trouble and even managing to graduate in the Top Three of his class.(In fact he was actually number one, but only a single point – it's safe to say that whoever he had beaten out will be pretty angry with him.) Zane received a female Pikachu from Bill which he nicknamed Pie and decided that she would be his "premium brand".


/PERSONALITY
Zane is a very witty and bright young man – quick to fire off the sarcastic response that gets everyone who hears it laughing or at least chuckling quietly to themselves. While he does have a temper, Zane is very much a gentleman; he’ll open doors, hold umbrellas, pull out chairs, the whole shebang.

Despite his bright and somewhat punkish attire, Zane is actually quite a calm and cool kid. He doesn’t care much of what other people think of him and is aloof most of the time. However, his peers enjoy having him around; because whether it be for a study group or a party, Zane just always seem to bring the sunshine with him…maybe it’s the hair?

Zane lives for music. He just loves the way it can change a person’s mind, mood, and heart in less than five minutes. To him, music can be found in and compared to just about everything in life – including Pokémon. He hopes the skills he has learned from both Cilan and the Academy have prepared him enough to face the journey ahead of him.

/NAME ➟

Teal Logia

/AGE ➟

15 (April 1st)

/GENDER ➟

Male

/RELATIONSHIPS ➟

Teal’s father, being a trainer himself, was very good friends with professional pokemon trainers and introduced Teal to them, informing them of his son’s dream of being the pokemon master. Finally this got to a trainer who’d participated in the pokemon league and got to the semifinals and this trainer, Vick, saw interest in Teal and agreed he would mentor him while going through Bill’s academy.

/ROLE ➟

Future Champion (Pokemon Trainer)


/APPEARANCE ➟

Physical appearance: Teal is a generic looking caucasion teenager with a tanned complexion from summers at the beach. Trimmed nails, proper features about him make him look a bit like a goody goody though he doesn’t act like one. Though a teen, his face is clear and only the color of his skin can be seen. The color of his eyes are the same as his name and the color of his hair in a dark brown on the verge of black. It’s straight, yet wavy, and the forehead and bangs are usually covered by a pair of goggles with blackened lenses. He’s an average 130 lbs and 6”0 tall, making him stand out only by his unique ambitious personality. His appearance is still very youthful as his lips are still full and his features give away that he isn’t older than 16. Teal reps an athletic build with visible muscle that make his shirts hug him.

Clothing and accessories: A pair of blacken lensed goggles with white cloth that straps onto Teal’s forehead and covered his bangs, wrapping around to the back of his head. A striped short sleeved V-neck shirt that is a darker and lighter shade of teal is worn over his torso. He wears below his shirt a pair of brown cargo shorts with pockets filled to the brim with pokemon apparel and held up by a belt of the same shade. His hands are covered by fingerless gloves that he made from his own weight lifting gloves after cutting the fingers off of then. Teal’s shoes are a pair of high top basketball shoes, white and teal, go on top of his long black socks. The last pair of his attire is a thin gold chain hidden underneath his shirt with the emblem of the pokemon league dangling from it.


/HISTORY ➟

Teal was born in the Unova region and actually grew up there in the big city of castelia. Becoming a pokemon trainer was the dream of all the children in the city and the trainers themselves were idols to the public. Like superstars, a kid could only dream of growing up to become a professional pokemon trainer not knowing that the route to becoming one of these was strenuous. As time went on, children decided to set other dreams and realized the unlikeliness of becoming a famous pokemon trainer. Teal, though, continued his path and with certain connections from his father, he was moved off to Kanto to start his trainer career as most professionals did. Teal knew from his father that Kanto was the beginning place for aspiring trainers as the pokemon were simpler and the entire place was safer overall than other regions.

Teal went to train with a famous trainer, Victory Vick, in kanto at bill’s academy. Teal got in at the age of eleven, but quickly he accelled through the courses and by the time he was fifteen, he was deemed ready to graduate. With a number of other graduates, he received his pokemon and could feel the adventure was already beginning. His parents shipped out to Kanto, just to see their son graduate. Applause filled the room as Teal held the ball containing his new Abra. He shook his father’s hand and nodded to him being told of his father’s success in as a trainer and that he might be getting more endorsements. At the time this meant nothing to Teal as he instead could think only about his training career and his future.


/PERSONALITY ➟

An optimist at heart, Teal has grown with the values and principles that one should treat others with respect and be kind to them while still enjoying life. He’s a very talkative person that sees ways to start engaging conversations all the time, not discriminating against anybody for any reason at all. He tends to give everybody an equal chance from the start of meeting them and shows no real difference in treatment with anybody. He can pick up a random conversation with anybody he meets. Teal tries not to complain to people about things that are happening in his life and would rather lift the spirits of others. All these traits though are innate as it would probably be difficult for him to not act this way toward people. This means that without trying, he just is a nice person whether or not he’s going through something difficult or is mad at somebody at the time.

/NAME ➟
Sage Rivet

/AGE ➟
16, Oct. 24,

/GENDER ➟
Male

/RELATIONSHIPS ➟
His mom is close friends with one of the teacher’s who’s been there for a long time

/ROLE ➟
Pokemon Professor in Training

/APPEARANCE ➟
Physical appearance: Sage is a bit short and underweight for his age. He is 5’6 and weighs 124 lbs and is rather weak. He has pasty white skin that burns easily in the sun. He has very light brown hair with a few streaks of blond in it. His hair is straight and is around half an inch in height, never combed. His eyes are a dark green similar to an evergreen. Most of his facial features are average size in comparison to his head except for his ears which are around a quarter of an inch to big.

Clothing and accessories: Most of his clothes are dark shades of brown and green to blend into the trees when observing wild Pokémon. He wears mostly long sleeve shirts and cargo pants. He has a few blue jeans and some random colored T-shirts, but he usually doesn’t wear them. He has brown hiking boots that are a bit worn out from the treks in the forest. He also has white running shoes which his mom got for him to exercise, but he has not worn them at all. Around his neck is a sterling silver chain with a charm on it that looks like half a five-pointed star. He wears this under his shirts so that no one can see it. When it gets cold he puts on a big puffy brown ski jacket.

/HISTORY ➟
From a very young age sage was always very fascinated with Pokémon. He wanted to know everything there was to know about them like: how they evolve, what moves they can learn, their behavior in the wild compared to domesticated and the different conditions each Pokémon could live in. Sage lived in Pewter city, so basically the only wild Pokémon he could see were the ones in Viridian Forest. Whenever he had free time he would bring his pen and notebook to the forest and observe Pokémon. His mom was well aware of this and knew it would be a good idea to send him to a Pokémon Trainer Academy, so that he could learn more and because he had nothing better to do with no friends.

Sage only managed to make one friend in Pewter city, a girl named Susan. One day when Sage was five he was looking at a Caterpie eating some grass. Susan came in and started screaming at the Caterpie, chasing it away for fun. Sage tried to hide, but Susan noticed him and introduced herself. Sage wouldn't talk to her, but she was really persistent. She managed to get him to yell at her angrily for all the noise she was making. Over the next few weeks Susan managed to get Sage to say his name to her, but he still didn't like her. Before her the only people he would talk to was his parents when he needed something.

One day Sage was attacked by a Beedrill in the forest, when he was trying to see what it was eating. Sage tried throwing sticks and stones at them to hurt it, but that just made it angrier. Susan then came out of nowhere and tackled the Beedrill into a tree. She then took out a purple berry from her pocket and shoved it in the Beedrill's mouth. She then started running away and pulled Sage to come with her. The Beedrill looked disoriented and was trying to attack the tree. This raised Sage's opinion of Susan, and soon after they became close friends. She tried introducing him to her other friends, but he would just glare at them. When Sage was preparing to leave for the Pokémon Training Academy Susan made him a necklace with half a star on it. She said it was a keepsake to remember her by, she had the other half to remember him for. Sage gave her a big hug and said he would always wear it.

At the school Sage always did very well. He loved learning about all of it so much, even in his spare time all he would do was study. He made no friends, everyone thought he was weird. Whenever he feels lonely he would hold onto his necklace, but it really doesn’t help as much as it did when he first go there. At his final year he scored a near perfect on the written exam, and he did above average on the battle. He was excited to get his first Pokémon, but even more than that he was ecstatic to get a Pokedex.

/PERSONALITY ➟
Sage doesn't like other people most of the time and prefers to keeps himself. When he is introduced to new people he will glare at them, not saying a word. He will make snap judgements about people, making it really hard for people to become close with him. Even if he doesn't dislike the person they have to prove there worth to get a response from him. When he does make friends with people he will rarely go to them to hang out and the littlest things could cause him to get annoyed by the person. Most people think that he's shy because he won't talk to them, but they eventually notice that he just thinks that they are incompetent.

Sage also has a rather addictive personality. When he finds something he likes he will spend all his time on it, usually forgetting to eat, sleep and other important necessities. Pokémon are one of his obsessions and is the main reason he wants to become a professor. He loves everything about Pokémon and wants to learn more about them constantly. Another one of his obsessions is blue- colored food; he finds that any food colored blue tastes better than normal food. He has no idea why and he wants to find out.

Sage is very protective over things he finds dear. This includes things like his parents(somewhat), Susan and the few obsessions he has. He will do everything in his power to prevent them from being hurt in any way. Pokemon being one's of his obsessions means he has no tolerance for anyone who abuses their power. Whenever he hears how people like Team Rocket and Team Galactic treated Pokemon he boils with anger. This being said he is a little conflicted about having Pokemon in captivity. He understands that they are happy for the most part, but it's a bit demeaning to treat the Pokemon like slaves. On the other hand he sees how dangerous it is for Pokemon in the wild and how much safer they are away from predators.

William Cordes
Legendary Child Assimilation Facility, Centre of Orre Region

The girl just plopped onto the ground, William was ashamed. He didn't wanna hurt her or Addle, who was probably with her. Mafisto went up to the girl, then ordered one of the cloaked men to pick her up. She was thrown over the man's shoulder, but she barely resisted at all. After staring at her for a second, he remembered his anger towards her. She stole my Pokemon and tried to blow up the building... or something like that William reminded himself. He went to Mafisto, why hadn't he taken Addle from the girl yet?

"Where's Addle?" William demanded of Mafisto. Mafisto just smiled like he normally did whenever he thought what William did something funny.

"We'll check her soon to see what she is carrying. She could still be dangerous." Mafisto replied still smiling. William was for once not satisfied with his answer.

"How could she possibly be dangerous, she's not even moving. And I'm not waiting any longer, I wanna see Addle now!" William responded a bit angry. William ran over to the girl really quickly. Mafisto with anger on his face tried to catch up, but William was running faster than what seemed humanly possible. The mud didn't seem to slow him, and he was invigorated by the rain. He caught up to the cloaked man holding the girl on his back.

"Where is Addle?" William asked still very angry. Before the girl could respond he heard a whimper from the bag on her back. The cloaked man was still walking away ignoring William. William opened her bag and saw Addle inside. Addle had the look of fear on his face, but when he saw William he lit up. Addle had finally regained some energy and jumped into William's arm making William smile. William then felt Addle tense up, and tried to hide himself in a bundle of William's shirt. William looked around saw Mafisto, who was scowling at the hiding minun.

"Why is Addle hiding from you? What did you do to him?" William asked he was really furious now. Mafisto put on a fake smile.

"He just doesn't remember me." Mafisto said cheerily, William just shook his head.

"Addle is a very smart Pokemon, he never forgets anyone." William replied, his anger getting stronger. He wasn't going to be tricked so easily by Mafisto anymore.

"He is just still traumatized by the girl." Mafisto suggested, Addle shook his head from underneath the t-shirt. Mafisto saw this and sighed.

"I don't have time for you anymore. If you are going to be such a hassle I might as well kill you. This wasn't going to work out anyways. We needed both those Pokemon dead, not just your Surskit." Mafisto said malicously as the scattered men behind Mafisto started heading towards William. What does he mean by both those Pokemon, and what is he talking about a dead Surskit? William wondered. The men were coming closer and so was Mafisto.

"Subun use Discharge!" William commanded. Mafisto turned around and saw Subun on the ground charging up. She then let out light blue electricity in all directions. Half of it it hit Mafisto due to his close proximity, and the rest hit all the nearby cloaked men causing them to all collapse. William was safe from the attack because he was on the other side of Mafisto. William put Addle down and started running towards the guard with the girl, the two Minuns following him. The cloaked men who weren't knocked out were shooting at William, but had trouble hitting him with the rain and how far away the were from him. The cloaked man who had the girl still didn't notice what was happening, and instantly fell to the ground when subun charged at him covered in sparks.

"I don't know what's going on, but I'm sorry for what I did. I thought you stole my Pokemon. Now there's no time to talk, are you okay to run yet?" William asked the girl.

/NAME
Riku Cloud Kimura
/AGE
Sixteen, 15th of March
/GENDER
Male
/RELATIONSHIPS
Riku has strong connections with many people close to Pokemon. Apart from having a retired pokemon researcher, who was part of the legendary Professor Oak Research Team, as his grandfather, Riku's elder sister, Brigitte, is a successful Pokemon Contest coordinator. During his childhood he was raised and trained under the Viridian Gymleader which has allowed him to grow and gain valuable knowledge.
/ROLE
Having trained under a gymleader his entire childhood has given him high hopes of pursuing a career in Pokemon Battling, but his heart still yearns to follow in his grandfather's footsteps and fulfill his mother's wishes to become a scholar or pokemon professor.

/APPEARANCE
Physical appearance: Riku has the traits considered very different than the usual Kanto native, the most notable difference is his skin color: unlike most other people around he does not have light colored or pale skin, being filipino gives him a very beautiful olive tan that sets his apart. He has short dark hair fashioned into a faux-hawk. What makes people double take when looking at Riku are his bright golden amber eyes, everyone in town says they are his mother's eyes, and his bright white smile. Once upon a time, he could easily appear gaunt due to his underweight and short form. However, the passing years managed to throw lean meat and muscle on his bones and stretch his height. Able to receive adequate nourishment, participate in sports and the growing that comes with puberty all worked in thrusting his new intimidating, 165 pound 5'10" form.

Clothing and accessories: Having at least one outfit to match the weather, during the warm days he's seen wearing a black snapback hat facing forward, a red flat bill and a small embroidered logo of a Tauros next to red embroidered letters reading FUSCHIA TAUROS bordered in white. A clean white tee with a single red rectangular box with white letters reading: Supreme, under a sleevless black hoodie zipped up halfway just underneath the logo on his tee. He wears a large white G-shock watch on his left wrist along with a black wristband that has white letters reading "I ♥ BOOBIES" and a white wristband on his right wrist reading "LIKE A BOSS". He wears a pair of camo cargo shorts and long black socks bordered with a thin white stripe at the top, pushed down to mid-calf leaving small ridges on his socks with loosely tied black and white low-top converse sneakers. He wears a red colored pendant around his neck, beads hanging around his neck and down to his abdomen where the actual diamond shaped pendant hangs along with a black lanyard, keys attached to the car he has back at home and the house itself, with white cursive letters reading: illest, over and over again and a square diamond stud on each ear. When outdoors he wears his rayban brand sunglasses.

During the chilly season he is seen decked out in a light grey snapback hat facing backwards, royal blue flat bill and a small embroidered logo of a Gyarados biting a fishing rod in half emanating thin rays over an arched royal blue word reading CERULEAN and directly underneath the logo in smaller royal blue letters bordered in white reads: GYARADOS. A light grey crewneck sweatshirt with large royal blue letters covering the entire front reading: "COOL STORY BRO," with smaller font underneath reading: "tell it again.". He wears a large blue g-shockwatch on his left wrist, his sleeve is pushed up slightly to leave the watch fully visible. He wears a pair of dark blue colored skinny jeans, sagging just a bit, and a pair of light grey jordan sneakers loosely tied that matched his crewneck and hat.


/HISTORY
Riku was born Veridian City, and grew up within the folds of his parent's upper-class, snobby society. His early childhood was a pampered one, with a well-balanced and loving family in a nice home. He was well-adjusted and intelligent, but unlike his father (who was a former Frontier Brain in Sinnoh) he lacked any affection for Pokemon Battling and was easily intimidated at a level most normal children would be. His father gave him an old pokeball that housed his father's first pokemon as a symbol of Riku's hidden fighting spirit. Despite his father's protests, Riku's mother home-schooled him which molded him into the shy, but very smart individual he was in his early years.

When Riku was six, he was kidnapped by an unknown band of thieves. Being the son of a wealthy family in Veridian, the kidnappers knew they could get a hefty ransom. He would soon be locked up in a steel box, because the group could not stand his crying. His father and mother arrived and battled against the group until the only one left was their leader, an intimidating man. By then his parent's pokemon were exhausted and they were nearly defeated as the man threatened their lives with his Scyther and Beedrill. That's when Riku became angry and broke free of the steel box he was being held captive in by releasing Dragonite from his father's pokeball he gave him a year before. Amazingly, Riku managed to deliver a devastating blow to the leader's pokemon, giving his parents time to finish them off, though the leader had a hidden Nidoqueen he used to kill his mother in the process. Riku swiftly defeated the Nidoqueen and the man fled, it was during this time his father discovered that Riku was potentially far stronger than he himself. His father was so stricken by his wive's death he attempted suicide, when that failed he left Riku and his sister Brigitte to the care of their grandfather in Pallet Town.

After the battle with the mysterious man, the Viridian Gymleader, having seen the battle first hand, decided to take Riku out training in the wilderness of Mt. Silver. He left Riku alone to survive against the wild pokemon and other dangers for six months with nothing but a baby Rhyhorn he was given by Green, though during this time Green watched Riku carefully. For the rest of the year, Green showed no mercy as he taught Riku how to battle. Soon, Riku's bright and cheerful nature made Green protective over the young boy. This training rocketed Riku out from his shy and cry-baby shell and into a confident, heroic trainer once it was over. Green returned to his gym and Riku, now ten after four years of training, entered the Pallet Town Academy mid-way through the year thanks to Green and his grandfather's praise. Being the new kid in school he was picked on, but he always though it was because of his unique eye color, or even his tanned skin. He was popular with most of the pretty girls because he'd put the stupid meat heads that hit on the girls down with scathing ability. It didn't hurt he was decent looking and dressed well, consequently he was about as popular with the guys as a cockroach. Unlike his sister, who was popular with everyone.

He graduated five years later, now fifteen, and left the academy at the top of his class, and returned home which was across town. His sister had been out of the academy for two years now, and in that time she managed to become a famous Contest Coordinator. He saw her posters littered all around town and he was confident he could reach her level of success, so he spend the next year at home with his grandfather going over battling techniques. The next year Professor Cedar registered Riku as one of her three representatives in the Indigo League Challenge. Riku learned each of the four academies released their top three students to the challenge, an interesting challenge. He immediately agreed and wanted to prove himself to everyone.


/PERSONALITY
Riku is a shy and studious intellectual, and as a child, he lacks the battling spirit his last name carries but as he grew into a young adult his fighting spirit was unlocked. Being pampered in his early life, then suddenly being thrown into a harsh training regiment has given him unusual values and personality. These unique values and personality separate him from his father and grandfather; as good as he is, he does not like fighting much. However, when he is forced to fight, he shows special interest in protecting his family and friends. Like his grandfather, Riku has a pure and gentle heart. Also like his grandfather, he has an amazing appetite. Besides concerning himself with his family and studies, Riku has a strong attachment with his mentor: Green Oak. Though he claims he does not share the love of fighting his grandfather and father had, now that he is a young adult he obviously does indeed love Pokemon Battling and adventure. It is also clearly obvious he greatly enjoys being a hero and has broken out of his shy shell and is now know for his bright and cheerful attitude. He does have a love of competition, specifically pokemon battles and eating. Under the large, charming bright smile he is known for is a sad, frightened boy still mourning over his mother's death and the fact his father abondened him. He constantly has a feeling of self-disgust and often time these negative feelings cause him to isolate himself at least for a few hours until he can manage to plaster that bright smile of his back on his face.

Riku has remarkable intuition at seeing the good in other in spite of their actions, though his capacity for forgiving his enemies had occasionally been criticized as excessive; Riku, for the most part, only fights to win. He has a simple, practical view of the world and is somewhat naive to the world around him. Because of this, many incorrectly assume him to be somewhat stupid, only to be proven wrong once he opens his mouth and reveals his level of intelligence. As a child, Riku is known to have within him a dormant power that allowed him to effortlessly beat any opponent at a battle, which only revealed itself when he experienced fierce rage. As he got older, he trained hard and learned to control a large portion of his skill and it was not until he enrolled in the academy his power was fully unlocked and he was able to use it all at his own will. Riku is shown to suffer from severe trypanophobia, or the fear of medical needles.

Alright well you seem to write well when you're actually roleplaying, and your sign up is alright. But one problem is that your character is shy, but so is my character and they're both traveling in the same group and I would like to keep their personalities different. If you can't change that it would be great, but if you can't it's alright. Everything else is fine. Accepted~

Physical appearance: Sylvia stands at average height for her age, around 5'5. Her hair is a short dirty blond, but on clear and sunny days it shines in the sun. Her skin tone is a peachy color. Her weight is average for a 14-year old, around 115 lbs. Her eyes are hazel, unusual for her family. (And the Kanto natives) Her nails are short for a girl, and she has rather short eyelashes. Many tease her for being a girl pokémon trainer with not-that-tough muscles, but she dosent care. Her eyes aren't as great as the others, so she wears a pair of little glasses resting on her nose. However, she is still disliked by the boys for whatever reason she can tell, despite all of that. She dosent let it get to her.
Clothing and accessories: Sylvia hairstyle is a ponytail with a truff of hair covering her forehead. Many say its a "unusual" hairstyle, but that dosent bother her. Her shirt is a plain white turtleneck, with a red jacket that has pockets and a zipper that her mom sewed. The zipper is half-way zipped. Apparently, she has grey shorts on, and changes every time she goes into a snowy environment. She hates the cold. Sylvia also has grey boots with a zipper that is half-way zipped, also sewn by her mom. For the accessories department, she has grey gloves and yellow armbands. She made those herself. She also owned a belt bought at the cerulean mall, that keeps her pokéballs secure. Her belt is on a angle.

/HISTORY
When Sylvia was born, she was born in Opelucid City, far off in Unova. She learned about dragon-types there, but for some reason, they bore her. She was more interested in the other types, after all, I wanted to become a well-rounded pokémon trainer. If you use one type, you will surely fall to its weakness. Thats what Sylvia thought, at least. In the town, her best friend named Iris, was the only one that could actually understand her. She said that if you follow your dreams, possibly nothing can stop you. From that moment on, she gladly decided that she would train using all of the types when she was old enough.

Sadly, a couple of years later, her parents divorced. She went with her mother to Kanto, and her father stayed in Unova. Sylvia was in tears to have let Iris, the only person who understanded her and her only friend, go. When she got on the plane, she thought she saw a fast dash of light fly past her, and When she looked out the window of the plane, she thought I saw a beautiful, golden dragon-type, with sparkles flying out, and suddenly, it turned its head and looked at me. she took a picture, And it showed a beautiful pokémon. She promised myself she would never forget that moment. She showed the picture to my mom, And she said all she see's is the sky. Sylvia was shocked, but then realized only she could see that pokémon. She never knew its name, but for the great speed and skill, she called it Latioan.

Many did not believe her story, not even Oak. He called it a "Mirage".

She Took Pallets school close by, and she learned almost all there is needed to know about pokémon. She soon became a walking Pokédex. When she got her degree, she promised myself she would prove to everyone that that dragon in the sky was a living being.


/PERSONALITY
Sylvia is, unlike many girls, a gutsy kind of kid. She usually does stuff that many other people would be afraid of doing, such as braving Mt.Moon (Of course, she hasn't.)

Apparently, she dosent care what other people say. She usually says - "Well, That dosent change my opinion." She's a big talker, and has a big mouth full of big words. Her way to solve a problem is to battle it out, or otherwise, make Blast aim a water gun at peoples faces. However, she is rather disliked by the Kanto natives, so she tends to stay away from them in her room, keeping in touch with Iris.

She dosent trust anyone, even her parents, expect Iris and Blast. She still talks to Iris through voicemail, and when she finds out that Iris is traveling with Cilan and a trainer called "Ash" she gets very impressed. She also knows about Axew,Emolga,and Excadrill.

/STARTER
Blast - Level 5 Squritle (Likes to stay out of its pokéball)

/THEME SONG
Dynamite By Taio Cruz

Alright since Garmeil never corrected his signup the baton is passed to you Nightfall. There is no abra in the starters o.o Overall, try to add more detail to your signup to make it longer. Also, the biggest mistake i see is her age. If you read they have to be a certain age, and your character is much too young. and great song choice ;)

Alright, but you forgot to change your appearance to fit that of a fifteen year old. You're still describing her as a ten year old. So just change that last thing.
