Nicolas James McCoy
Name: Nicolas James McCoy
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Appearance: Nicolas stands at 5’11 and weighs around 140 pounds, making him very thin and tall. He is relatively strong and may be considered muscled in appearance, but Nicolas thinks little of it. His face is an oval in shape, with his chin jutting out slightly, with almond-shaped brown eyes. His skin is Mediterranean or olive in coloration, a 21 on the
von Luschan skin color scale. His hair is a very dark brown, almost black, often in a crew cut if possible. Otherwise, it becomes curly. Nicolas will cut it down to stubs before it gets to this point, as he despises his curly hair. As for facial hair, it grows quickly, so it be becomes stubbly almost a day after his usually failed attempts shaving. He prefers it clean-shaven.
As for clothing, he wears one of 10 shirts of assorted colors and a black, leather coat over top. His pants are usually denim jeans, alongside
black boots. He also owns a black fedora with a white band which he’ll wear outside to block the sun from getting in his eyes.
Personality: Mysterious is one of the better words to describe Nicolas. He rarely speaks to anybody, and any sort of attempt to communication will usually fail. Even in the direst of situations, he is silent, giving no vocal clues to his personality. He only speaks to his pokémon, as he trusts them more than anything, ironic because of the nature of most of them. His trust issues make him cautious around other people, who may stab him in the back he feels. He is skilled in pick pocketing, and other things related to thievery, although he rarely finds need for these. He has saved much of his money, never wasting money on useless things other than a somewhat excessive amount of healing items which has lasted him through all of his adventures.
History: Nicolas grew up alone on the streets of Saffron City, picking pockets and stealing from other gutter boys. Eventually, however, Logan Kirdied, a man who had quite a lot of money, found him attempting to steal his wallet (and he was almost successful too) when Nicolas was 14. He gave him one pokéball, which was enough to get James on his journey by catching Emmet, then a Zubat. He went on and traveled to Pewter, defeating Brock with only Emmet. By then, he had earned some money by defeating trainers, and was slowly crawling out of poverty.
Nicolas continued through Kanto, obtaining eight badges by the time he was 18. He caught Tanner the Kecleon as well, but he ultimately failed every trainer’s goal when he was unable to enter the Kanto League Tournament because of his former criminal record. He was, sadly, unable to escape from law enforcement, and was stuck in prison for 5 years. His badges were striped from him, but Emmet and Tanner returned to his care. Nicolas traveled to Johto, as he would be able to enter the Silver Conference after obtaing all of Johto’s badges. 4 years, eight badges, and a captured Rotom later, Nicolas entered the Silver Conference and placed ninth. He went on to Hoenn and obtained three of its badges before the Hoenn Champ Battles were announced and Nicolas felt it would be good to see the Elite Four battling, to better understand their strategies and tactics.
Other: Nicolas has a small solid black tattoo of a crescent moon on his left shoulder.
Pokemon (4)
Species-Gender: Female Purrloin :509:
Nickname: Nilia
Personality: Nilia fits how most Purrloin are; thieving little kitties who use their cuteness to escape trouble. She’s still young, so she isn’t the best thief, often being caught by her victims, but she’ll still give them the adorable face and then flee to her trainer’s protection.
Description-History: Nilia looks like most Purrloin except for a slightly darker shade of fur in all areas; purple became
a darker purple, pink eye lids became
dark pink eye lids, and the tan turns into
a darker tan.. Nilia is the most recent member of Nicolas’ team, and the first from Unova, obtained from Logan Kirdied, who took a trip there and found the cat in his hotel room. He decided that it would best be left in the care of a former gutter boy after seeing it’s thieving nature.
Attacks: Fake Out, Thief, Torment, Assist
Other: None
Species-Gender: Genderless Rotom ;479;
Nickname: Orville
Personality: Orville is like popcorn; wild, spontaneous, and random. One second Orville may be calm and focused, the next he might be shocking everything nearby. You never know what might come next when he’s around, so watch your back.
Description-History: Orville looks identical to most Rotom- a circular head with a cone on the top and bottom, wild eyes, and a blue static aura around his body. Orville enjoyed hiding in Nicolas’ cell phone and shocking his leg until Nicolas found him while in Saffron City and captured him. Orville is one of Nicolas’ older pokémon, and is an experienced battler.
Attacks: Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, Telekinesis, move special to whatever he may be possessing/Thundershock
Other: None
Species-Gender: Male Kecleon ;352;
Nickname: Tanner
Personality: Tanner enjoys hiding and watching people; as such, he is considered the ‘spy’ of the team and relays information to Nicolas when he needs it. He is a fierce battler when need, focusing on his ability to camouflage himself and appear elsewhere.
Description-History: Tanner is a Kecleon, who is a green bipedal chameleon with a red stripe across his belly and occasional yellow accents. He was found watching Nicolas struggle with his attempts at catching a Weedle. He continued to follow Nicolas until he lost to Misty, and he appeared to help him.
Attacks: Shadow Sneak, Dizzy Punch, Recover, Return
Other: None
Species-Gender: Male Crobat ;169;
Nickname: Emmet
Personality: Emmet is similar to Nicolas; almost never talks to anybody unless needed. However, he doesn’t trust people because of them destroying the cave he lived in, destroying his home, before he flew away to the Underground Path. He battles well, but it usually involves some sort of dirty trick.
Description-History: Crobat tend to look similar, and Emmet is no exception. A purple, round head/body with four wings sticking out of the sides and tiny legs is normal. Emmet was Nicolas’ first pokémon, obtained from the Underground Path, where Emmet was hiding.
Attacks:Fly, Cross Poison, Air Cutter, Swift
Other: None
If you have any problems, just say so, primarily in Appearance and Personality. Description is not my strong suit, so I expect it.
