THE CHARACTER --- STANDARD 001
Name: Derrick FastolfNickname: DERR
Age: 15
Sex: Male
Dorm: Suicune Dorm
Theme Song: One More Time - Daft Punk
IN-DEPTH
Appearance: This bouncy gentleman has large eyes the color of blueberries. His silky, wavy, chestnut hair is worn in a style that reminds you of a pair of horns. He has an overmuscled build. His skin is white. He has an elegant nose.Black jacket and a regular white shirt underneath plus a pair of red denim jeans is usually his typical attire. His face is round and has no special traits to it (other than his nose), much like the rest of his person. His height is of 6ft 2in and his weight is of 165lbs.
Personality: Proud and self-confident. Derr is a guy who you will hate unless you're like him. You'll get criticized by him (rather harshly I must add) if he decides you're not doing things right. It also seems nobody does things right when he's around. His temper is rather explosive, but he tends to keep a cheerful attitude at things... most of the times. He's not the kind of guy that would cry about stuff, if at all, of course this doesn't imply he won't be feeling blue every now and then, he just won't show with ease. Rather cold and distant to strangers, and as such he won't be earning many friends as most people do, or any, for that matter.
A music aficionado to no end. He will always be listening music in his stereo headphones as loudly as possible. Don't be surprised if he can barely hear what you say when he takes them off. His tastes for music are mostly oriented to Techno, and chances are it'll be the only thing he'll listen to during his stay at the Academy.
A Pokemon lover. Of the ones that are cute of course, not that hideous, Trubbish thing, ugh! He will try to pet as many Pokémon he deems adorable as he can, although most of the times these will get all scared and launch attacks at him out of distress. Most of the times he's still far enough to actually be hit by these moves, but a few times he gets scratched all over his face and whatnot. It's not exactly pleasant, if at all.
History: His father is a retired Trainer from the Johto region and his mother a breeder that grew up in Unova. Both ended up meeting when they decided to move to Sinnoh. They settled here, and were soon blessed with a child.
Derrick was not different from all children or teenagers around. He grew up in a regular home, with a regular life in regular Jubilife City. Like all other kids he was anxious to go on a journey after he came of age. Like all other kids he was encouraged towards pursuing this.
He set soon with a Gible specially bred by his mother. And he was soon on track to become a great Trainer. One badge, and his mother awarded him with a Pokemon she had long since used: A Frillish. Another badge and he went back to Jubilife to visit his parents. His father decided to gift him his last Pokemon, who just so happened to be a Stantler.
Having a mother experienced in Pokemon, it wasn't very unusual to him to have a wide knowledge on several Pokemon: particularly those of the region of Unova. His battling skills were also no laughing matter, he was serious when in battle and, in spite of being clumsy proved to be a worthy opponent.
So it wasn't much of a surprise when he received a letter of acceptance into the Pokemon Trainer Academy, and was pretty much eager at the sight of the package that arrived within the letter. He quickly raced after biding his farewells and receiving supplies for his jet black bag from his parents, catching the following ship, and at thus heading directly to the Academy.
THE POKÉMON ROOSTER
Species: Gible♂
Nickname: Ipso Facto
Personality: Arrogant and somewhat selfish. Ipso Facto enjoys winning and despises losing against any foe. He tends to hold grudges over anything for excessively long periods of time, and is not exactly the one to be happy, if at all, but he is overall a decent fighter when in battle.
Lv.: 22
Dragon Rush | Sandstorm | Fire Fang | Return
Species: Frillish♀
Nickname: Nightwish
Personality: Much more distant than Derr is. Nightwish won't be the happiest Pokemon in battle, or the saddest, or... the one that ever shows any emotion for that matter, but she knows how to handle a battle with quite some efficiency.
Lv.: 20
Water Gun | Shadow Ball | Energy Ball | Rain Dance
Species: Stantler♂
Nickname: Rudolph
Personality: Rudolph is protective of his Trainer and very caring of him. He tends to disregard battles and ensure the safety of his Trainer, which will most likely lead to his defeat. In spite of this, he is a happy-go-lucky guy that enjoys everything he or Derr does.
Lv.: 20
Stomp | Confusion
THE OPENING POST
The Pokemon Trainer Academy
The bright sunlight hit the boat that he was in, racing across all decks and cargo and, in time, to his room. He had spent most of his time sleeping and just debating with himself. What would be waiting for him at the island? Were the other Trainers nice? What kind of Pokemon would be available, if any? This and more questions seemed to flicker across his head, not granting him enough time of reply before moving on to the next thought.
A message echoed all around the ship.
The ship was to arrive soon.
He had to get ready.
The barks and cries of three different creatures snapped him out of his current trance. Ipso Facto was chasing Rudolph, who was trying to chase Frillish... who seemed pretty much irresponsive to the whole situation. How long had it been since they were doing that? An hour, or two perhaps... Yeah, maybe two.
He gazed thru the window on his room. An image of an island was beginning to show itself behind the vast horizon. That had to be it.
The Academy was closer than ever before...
