No bunnying. This should be expected not to do. It includes murder of a character without being given permission.
No god-modding. Being a God Modder is a sign of being an ass and makes it to where other player's do not want to RP with you. Do not do this. It kills the fun of roleplaying. Let's keep things realistic.
Swearing is allowed in this RP but please let's keep it to a minimum. It gets mundane to see someone swearing in every sentence in their post.
Be active. This should go without saying but I would like to accept dedicated members who won't wither away in Day three of this role-play.

Name: Warren Ainsworth
Age: 19 years old
Gender: Male
Type: Trainer Teacher
Hometown: Blackthorn City
Ethnicity: White/Hispanic

Appearance:Warren doesn't have a refined, elegant appearance to him because he never really grew up with money. He has a more edgy, scruffy look about him. His thick wavy brunette hair that is carelessly scuffed about and he has wide hazel eyes. He's a pretty boy with a lot of natural beauty, he was luckily enough to avoid acne in his teenage years and his skin looks really good. Although he doesn't have any refined or taken care of features, he is really naturally attractive and he would catch people's eyes. His dress sense is rather plain because he never cared much for fashion or anything like that and almost detested trying to look good. His style comes across as a skater boy. Warren wears brown cargo pants which reach just below his knees. Which have pockets on the sides of each hip. His most noticeable accessory is the necklace with a silver poke ball, which he always wears on his neck. He also has a grey hooded t-shirt that he is generally wearing. Some people assume he has style but you can't really tell but Warren doesn't really bother with his appearance and wears what he feels comfortable in. For Warren's shoes he wears standard black sneakers. Warren is a 6 foot tall, which stems from his father who was also a very tall man. Warren has a very well defined and toned, athletic body thanks to the numerous physically activities and sports he has undergone his entire life. Sports played a huge part in his life and he grew a little bit of an obsession with gym training, so that helped. He has a well defined body and but it's not over the top muscle but it fits in well with his height and age. He's a very natural tan on him and it makes him kind of exotic and foreign. His shoulders are rather broad and his jaw line is very defined and structured. He definitely looks older than he is. He's a very handsome boy who wouldn't have trouble with women if he knew how to speak to them.

Personality: Warren isn't rather emotive and it shows when you first meet him. He comes off as rather cold, closed off and detached from his feelings which comes from his unstable past. His disclosed persona has always been a troubling factor in his life and it stopped him fitting in, his entire life. He's a rather focused and level headed boy with not a lot of things to care for. He's pretty much a one man army and isn't used to companionship or family being there for him and it's shaped the person he is now. Because of his isolated past, he's used to be alone amongst humans but he feels at home when surrounded by Pokémon and takes great care of them. His trust for people doesn't come instantly. It takes a while for people to gain his trust and it takes a series of trials and situations before he puts his trust in anyone's hands. He is very cautious with strangers and his does come across as very shifty and mistrustful whenever he meets new people. It would take alot for him to trust another human being but when it does, you would think twice to break his trust because he doesn't believe in second chances and wouldn't hesitate to forget you.

If there was one thing he could count on in life, it was his love for Pokémon and their companionship. He's always been rather connected and freer when Pokémon are concerned. Whilst living in the foster home, he never spent much time with the other kids but in the garden, hoping to catch a glimpse of a Wild Pokémon running about and he did, many times. His was always taught that Pokémon were made for companionship and they were looking for a partner and he felt like Pokémon were his kindred spirits and formed this connection with them. The only time you'd see any sort of real emotion is when he's surrounded by Pokémon or battling. He can't explain the feeling he gets from them but he just feels like they could do no wrong with him. He comes across as very competitive when battling. He's also very intense and serious when it comes to anything trainer related. He's very analytical and is often seen paying a lot of attention on opponent's strategies to come up with their predictability.

Warren's lack of communication is made up for him being very observant to his surroundings and he takes a weird sort of pride in this - because he likes Pokémon, and feels more connected with a Pokémon if he knows something about them, like their characteristics, so he observes them to help himself. He picks up on things other people fail to notice and that trait helps him battle. You could say that he's a very shy around people but most wouldn't notice it because he hardly has much to say to people. Although, but he slowly overcomes this as he becomes more interested and involved in something; hence why he is rarely nervous or withdrawn whilst battling. Courage when it's needed, typically a pacifist. Overly helpful and dedicated to any task that he takes.

History:Warren didn't live a relatively normal life. He never grew up in a family with a mother or a father but he grew up in an orphanage. His mother died when he was just 4 years old and since there wasn't anyone else around to take care of him, he was put in care to be raised with a dozen other children just like him. He was generally a bright kid who was happy but when his mother died, he became quiet and withdrawn. The only person he ever knew was gone and he didn't really understand why she was. He never really opened to many people around him except for his foster carer, Annabelle who was very sweet to him and took care of him. He learnt of his only living relative, his father being alive and when he was set to be placed there, things changed. His father was said to be murdered by his son. That was the start of Warren changing.

During his life growing up, he was never sure where his place was and how he fitted into this isolated world. He was a very misunderstood kid because most people assumed that he was being cold and mean to them but all he wanted was to be left alone but others because essentially gave up on life at an early stage. At the age of 9, he was very much known in the home as the kid you wouldn't want to be around. Although the kids could relate with one another, they didn't talk about their shortcomings in life but moved on. Warren couldn't move on. He was plagued with the anger that consumed him because he didn't understand how his mother could just abandon him like that. How she could just up and leave. He was too young to be told the full details of her disappearance but she supposedly died of cancer. Everyone thought it best not to tell him about it to protect him from it. He grew angry towards the lack of knowledge he had about his mother until he was sat down by Annabelle and she told him everything. He soon softened his memory of his mother and was soon a little more sympathetic about his past. He soon moved on from his anger towards his mother and focused on himself. But the new information he had learnt made him more withdrawn and cold towards other. He never really tried to make any friends at school or at the home; he just made do with the Pokémon he dreamt about.

In comparison to the child he was and the teenager he was now, Warren was very different because of how his life panned out. Him being an orphan and having nobody in the world made him a rather closed off person who was very suspect of everyone and everything around him. He didn't trust well and never allowed people get too close to him because he honestly didn't see the point. He felt that people never stick around and they'll leave as soon as you're comfortable with their presence. He wasn't going to make the mistake of caring about someone because he just couldn't deal with the pain of losing someone again. He felt that people weren't reliable as Pokémon were and he grew a strong love and connection for them which still remains rather strong to this day.

When he was only 12, he met a Pokémon on his way back from school. He had decided to ditch the other boys and went an alternative route home because he couldn't really stand their company. He went through the patchy forest where he met an injured Phanpy in desperate need of help. He decided to take it to the Pokémon Centre where Phanpy got treatment. Warren decided to stay and see how it was doing and after hearing news that it was going to be fine, Warren was about to leave but Nurse. Joy thought it best if he took care of Phanpy. Warren couldn't pass up the opportunity to take care of Phanpy as his own and took him back home. Although, he knew that he wasn't allowed to keep it, so he found a way to keep it hidden from everyone. He built a small shelter for Phanpy in the far end of the garden, visiting it often.

When he was about 13, he decided it was time to finally get out of the home and start his own journey as a Pokémon Trainer and he decided to run away from the home, taking Phanpy with him and start it, with or without their permission. He started out in his home region, Johto. He overheard that he could receive a starter if he visited Professor Elm's lab where he was told he wasn't eligible to receive a Pokémon but Warren decided to show Prof. Elm that he could indeed take care of Pokémon and ranted on about his love for Pokémon and after much persuasion, he managed to convince the Professor that he was suitable to take care of a starter. He eventually chose Chikorita as his Johto starter. He spent 9 months travelling the region to collect the eight badges he needed and after building his team of six and making it to the Silver Conference in which he got a lot of publicity for. He was eliminated before reaching the semi finals of the conference. He was very disappointed in himself but decided it was best to keep training so he could improve next time. The publicity he received made it easier for Annabelle to track him down and when they did, she gave him her blessing to continue his journey as a Pokémon trainer. She also told him that he had some inheritance from his mother.. He received money which he was advised to use in his journey. With her approval and his inheritance, He spent the next few years travelling the regions as he trained himself and continued to grow his Pokémon team. After many experiences and travels, Warren learnt alot from it all and after battling in many regions like Kanto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Unova Leagues, he was never really satisfied with losing in the semi finals and decided it was time for him to same unsolicited time off from competing in leagues and went on his own journey to bulk up his team and refine his skills as a trainer and he spent his time training in Hoenn to really get a feel of the region that he once lost in. He chose to stay because of how he lost, so easily. He chose to stay here and bide his time to battle anyone he comes across, hopefully building on more and more experience.
After many years training, Warren met the Sinnoh Champion, Cynthia and things were a little tense. Warren decided he wanted to prove himself to her and challenged her to a Pokemon battle and Cynthia accepted. They had a 4 on 4 battle and although Cynthia beat him, Warren impressed her enough for her to offer him a place in her academy. She thought his experience would serve well for the students and he accepted. He's been there for a few months now and focuses on teaching the students on battling styles and defense and offense.
