Because of this, said shiny items can be seen dropping from her bag on occasion from bulging pockets that just seem to hold too much, even if the items are pure crap. In many ways, she has the characteristics of a Murkrow, and if someone said that to her, she'd be pretty amused and wonder what it is exactly that you're smoking. When it gets cold, she'll trade her long sleeved shirt for a much warmer black sleeved shirt that's a bit on the heavy side to keep her warm. While she doesn't mind the cold that much, if she could avoid it and go near a hundred degree climate area, she'll head over there. Atop that black long sleeved shirt (if its cold enough) is another jacket that she'll bundle up in.
Personality: Jen is one tough cookie. Having had grown up with five brothers total and being the only girl puts you in that sort of position. She constantly likes to wrestle and have mock fights, even going so far as to wrestle a stray Mightyena that walked into her backyeard. The two had fallen in love with each other, but sadly Jen had to let it go. Jen can be pretty cheerful. In fact, she is almost happy all the time and rarely shows any anger unless for a just cause like against abuse, unfair laws and anything against her belief's or when she gets into a fight with one of her brothers. Jen hides her tears, which really doesn't matter since she doesn't cry all that often. When she falls and hurts herself, she takes it, unless its as bad as a broken bone, but unless a drama show is on that really affects her, she will cry silently.
As Jen grew up being the only girl in the family, with five brothers to boot, she has the tendency to act a bit too tough, thinking she has to prove herself. She doesn't like to be coddled, and no matter how tough a girl can be, there is always that unsaid boundary between a girl and boy, which is sad, because she doesn't know that many girls who have an adventure bone in them. She hates make-up, dresses and all sorts of girly things, which is in fact the total opposite of the girls she does know from school. Its regretful too, as sometimes her father will take the boys out for just a boys night out, which involves crazy stunt shows on the rare occassion, and Jen absolutely loves that sort of stuff. Don't get it wrong, Jen's father loves her and always has time for his 'baby girl', but that's just the problem, she loathes being considered 'daddy's little girl' or 'daddy's princess'. While it may be the same for all girls, Jen still feels like she has to prove herself to be as tough as a boy, which is exactly why she will dress and act as one.
Background: Jen grew up with five brothers, but was the third oldest. Her oldest brother, and favorite, Jarrett, died while serving in the army. He was a great soldier and pokemon trainer. His best pokemon, Skarmory, went down fighting with him. Jen now keeps his dog tags for herself. That was the first time she had ever cried so openly. When she held Jarrett's dog tags while they buried his ashes, along with his Skarmory's into the same grave, she vowed that she would make him proud. Her brother had wanted to become a pokemon trainer after the army, but Jen sometimes doubted he really would. Her brother loved serving too much, and she knew he would have been great, and that is why she vowed to protect his memory. With that vow, she placed the dog tags around her neck and has never taken them off since, even when showering or sleeping.
Jade's second oldest, Bobby, is a bit of a study nerd, and doesn't fight all that often, which sucks because when he does wrestle he's incredibly good at it. Jade's younger brother's, Mark and Owen, are only a year apart, Mark being the oldest and being one year younger than Jen. Aside from Jarrett, who is three years older than Bobby, they are all a year apart. Their family is close, but when news of Jarrett's death reached their ears, they were never the same again and closed off one another, and even till this day they aren't the same. That's why Jade wants to go on a pokemon journey, to get away from it all. She loves her family, but there is only so much one can take in a sad environment.

Story:
A strange wind has been blowing over the Siinnohs region. Professor Rowan looks out from his lab window. "Such a beautiful fall day, yet it has an eerie calm to it" he says before going back to his seat, as he goes to take a sip of his coffee the phone rings. "Hello?" Rowan answers as the conversation continues. "I understand the circumstances, but like I said we've tried to help, there's no way in.... The dark clouds are to thick, they shroud you, Kanto is lost to us... I sincerely wish you and the clan the best of luck. Goodbye Oak"... With that the conversation goes dead, a saddened and disgusted look comes over Rowan's face... "excuse me professor, the Pokemon for the trainers are ready for there arrival" a female lab assistant with cherry blond hair says walking up to the man and setting a tray with poke balls and pokedex on it. "Thank you, they should all be arriving any minute now" Rowan says.

Spoiler:
Name: Chim Camaero Colligan
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance:
From the pokémon creator game on deviantart.
Personality: All is about style and art and grace, to Camaero. He strives to be elegant and cool at the same time, but he cares little for honor and manners in most situations, as they make things complicated. Simple and clean is his devise, and he tries to dress and act accordingly. But with a touch of grace, naturally. Many have asked him if he's gay, but to that he nowadays simply blinks at the questioner and says: 'Maybe, maybe not!'. Categorizing people can only be done in two ways: those who care and those who don't care. Camaero cares. About himself, about people who are nice to him, about his clothes and of course about his pokémon. And his pokémon should be of the beautiful, cute, or cool kind. Ugly or very complicated pokémon isn't really his thing.
He is friendly and charming when you first meet him, but he tends to judge you from if you care about things or not. Actually, he doesn't have a problem with people who don't dress as consciously as he does - after all, that only makes him the most well dressed in a group and that's just good. Rather, he thinks that a person should care about something. Or else, they will be rather aimless in this world. When he battles, he will stray from his devise sometimes, and form complicated strategies to charm or outwit his enemies. He likes to use moves that confuse or affect the opponent in ways that makes his own pokémon look that much more strong or cunning. He has never really thought about becoming a coordinator, but that career would probably suit him better than that of a trainer. But who knows how his personality will develop when he gets out onto the road?
Background: Camaero grew up in Jubilife City with a father who was a rough but kind craftsman and a mother who was a singer and a painter. Early on, it was clear that little Chim Colligan loved to sing or draw or dance or otherwise create things. He didn't much like sports or getting dirty though. The boys in school called him silly, but girls thought he was cute and nice. When he became a teenager, they moved to Twinleaf Town though, and Chim started a new school. Children here weren't as forgiving as in the big city, and boys mocked and teased him for being girly and girls thought he was strange. He had some sleepless months where he was in despair, but then something happened. A girl also moved to Twinleaf and became his friend. She was named Carla and was a complete tomboy. She was much tougher and wilder than any boy in the school, and she told everybody that they were strange to shun Chim for him being who he was. They became best friends and Chim's confidence grew. As he started accepting himself again, the other kids started to appreciate him more as well. To mark this turn, Chim started going by his middle name instead, Camaero. Over the next years, he more or less created a new personality for himself.
He and Carla soon became a couple in the romantic way, but then Carla moved away... to a distant eastern part of Sinnoh with her parents. Camaero cried himself to sleep for some nights and thought he was going to become silly and disliked again. But he tried to keep up the mask he had created, and it worked. After almost a year, he was as cheerful and charismatic as ever, happily taking charge in any situation. But he always wanted to meet Carla again. When professor Rowan said that he gave away pokémon, Camaero saw it as an opportunity in several ways. He would be able to travel and make people aware of his talents and stylish ways... and he would eventually be able to look for Carla in the eastern Sinnoh.

Spoiler:
Name: Charlie Arthurson
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Charlie's height is above average, standing at 1.75 meters. She has a slightly tanned skin with freckles all over her face. shoulders and arms, to her own dismay. Her hair's a dark brown, ever so slightly wavy at the ends and reaches to mid-back. She's got no bangs and a mid-part, but you don't usually see it as she tends to push her hair back with a white headband. She's got amber eyes set in a long and narrow face, the slightest cleft in her chin and a celestial (up-turned) nose.
Clothing-wise Charlie doesn't really like to stand out, so she stays away from overly bright colours. She wears a form-fitting longs-sleeved grey shirt under a white, loosely knitted wool sweater, of which she always has the sleeves rolled up to show the shirt underneath. Over that she wears an equally white woolen winter coat, against the general cold of Sinnoh. She wears a pair of skinny jeans of a vibrant blue hue, for denim, though dark enough that they're not too bright and noticeable for her. Then, on her feat, she wears a pair of black boots with fake white fur on the top and nice woolen lining on the inside. And lastly she carries a pair of, you guess it, white gloves with her. Charlie does not like the cold. Lastly, for her stuff she has a brown sling-bag with a singly strap nestled across her shoulders for all her carrying needs.
Personality:
Charlie is has self-esteem issues, it should be said. She believes she doesn't come to a lot in the world. Like most victims of low self-esteem she's been bullied for several moments in her life. This has resulted in the fact that she doesn't like standing out or being singled out for things. She's not exactly shy, but she doesn't like talking to strangers very much. Still, when something bad needs saying, she's usually the one who does it. She doesn't like two-faced behaviour and will usually not turn about the truth. She's difficult to befriend but once you do, you've got a real trustworthy friend.
She might not think much of herself, but Charlie really isn't as incompetent as she thinks. She's actually rather brave when it comes down to it, but that's not something she'll believe of herself. She has a big heart, and a weakness for both children as well as minorities. She's very sympathetic and caring, and even if she won't likely stand up for herself, she will stand up for others. However her self-doubt is really her largest enemy, and she'll definitely have to work on her confidence if she wants to make it in the world of battling.
Charlie is also a bit naïve. She wants to believe that people mean what they say, and therefore she often takes their words for granted. One of Charlie's biggest wishes would be to amount to something, although how she'd attempt to achieve that wish might not be the best way to do so. She often dreams of an easy way out. In fact, Charlie dreams an awful lot. She's often with her head in the clouds, her imagination running wild. She has somewhat of an ambition to write, to do something with that overactive creative mind of hers, but really, she wouldn't be very good at it, right?
Background:
Charlie comes from a middle-class family, quite simple, in the small town of Twinleaf. Her parents kept a flower shop in the center of town, and lived in the space above it. She has an elder sister three years her elder, Karen, but they never got along, always fighting and at each other's throats. Charlie always thought her parents were just like every other parents, they loved each other and would always be together. That is, until they divorced when she was 8 years old. There really wasn't much warning, as the two always stayed civil when the children were around, but they'd been having fights for months before it happened, and the affair of Charlie's father was the end of it for her mother. The divorce was messy, her father had left to settle in Johto with the mistress and barely looked back at his other family.
This was a tough time for Charlie. Her mother was left to mind the shop on her own and Charlie and her sister had to work there after school almost every day. Charlie didn't much mind, but Karen was insufferable. It was also during this time that Charlie was first the subject of bullying at her school, after defending another boy for being picked upon, she became the center of attention. The kids in her school mostly began to shun her, or make fun of her for her accent or other flaws, and even the boy she'd defended didn't talk to her. This was the first blow on her self-esteem. Everything got a lot better after she moved up a grade and classes were shuffled though, and things seemed to go fine. The flower shop was picking up and her mother hired someone to help her, resulting in Charlie and Karen not having to mind the shop as much anymore, and thing were just generally fine.
The second major incident of bullying started when Charlie moved to high school. Things progressed much the same, she defended another girl and in turn she got the motherload. Since Twinleaf is such a small town kids don't tend to forget things. Many of her former bullies joined in on it, and Charlie once again found herself prone to verbal abuse. This time the girl she defended stuck by her, and the two were good friends throughout high school. The tormenting wore off after a year or two, but it still left its marks. In any case, Charlie graduated with good marks, and the plan was to go to take over most of the flower shop duties. However her mother convinced her to try Pokémon training for a little while, before coming back to help her. To live a little. And Charlie, after much convincing, decided to go with it.
Additional Information: I imagine Charlie talking with a British accent, as much as that exists in the Pokémon world.

Charlie is also a bit naïve. She wants to believe that people mean what they say, and therefore she often takes their words for granted. One of Charlie's biggest wishes would be to amount to something, although how she'd attempt to achieve that wish might not be the best way to do so. She often dreams of an easy way out. In fact, Charlie dreams an awful lot. She's often with her head in the clouds, her imagination running wild. She has somewhat of an ambition to write, to do something with that overactive creative mind of hers, but really, she wouldn't be very good at it, right?
Background:
Charlie comes from a middle-class family, quite simple, in the small town of Twinleaf. Her parents kept a flower shop in the center of town, and lived in the space above it. She has an elder sister three years her elder, Karen, but they never got along, always fighting and at each other's throats. Charlie always thought her parents were just like every other parents, they loved each other and would always be together. That is, until they divorced when she was 8 years old. There really wasn't much warning, as the two always stayed civil when the children were around, but they'd been having fights for months before it happened, and the affair of Charlie's father was the end of it for her mother. The divorce was messy, her father had left to settle in Johto with the mistress and barely looked back at his other family.
This was a tough time for Charlie. Her mother was left to mind the shop on her own and Charlie and her sister had to work there after school almost every day. Charlie didn't much mind, but Karen was insufferable. It was also during this time that Charlie was first the subject of bullying at her school, after defending another boy for being picked upon, she became the center of attention. The kids in her school mostly began to shun her, or make fun of her for her accent or other flaws, and even the boy she'd defended didn't talk to her. This was the first blow on her self-esteem. Everything got a lot better after she moved up a grade and classes were shuffled though, and things seemed to go fine. The flower shop was picking up and her mother hired someone to help her, resulting in Charlie and Karen not having to mind the shop as much anymore, and thing were just generally fine.
The second major incident of bullying started when Charlie moved to high school. Things progressed much the same, she defended another girl and in turn she got the motherload. Since Twinleaf is such a small town kids don't tend to forget things. Many of her former bullies joined in on it, and Charlie once again found herself prone to verbal abuse. This time the girl she defended stuck by her, and the two were good friends throughout high school. The tormenting wore off after a year or two, but it still left its marks. In any case, Charlie graduated with good marks, and the plan was to go to take over most of the flower shop duties. However her mother convinced her to try Pokémon training for a little while, before coming back to help her. To live a little. And Charlie, after much convincing, decided to go with it.
Additional Information: I imagine Charlie talking with a British accent, as much as that exists in the Pokémon world.

Spoiler:
Name: Jack Blaze
Age: 17
Gender: male
Appearance: Jack is an average sized young adult standing at 5 foot 7 inches. He has short spikey brown hair that sticks up no matter what he does to it. Because of his hair Jack has insisted on wearing a medium pair of black goggles with flames designed on the sides. He also wears a green jacket with a pokeball symbol on the back that his mother made for his journey. He wears the traditional jeans and tennis along with a one strap backpack with his name on it. His face is young in appearance due to the smooth skin and lack of facial hair. Jack's eyes are green but during hard situations they change to brown for some unknown reason.
Personality: Like most guys his age Jack is very antsy and cannot sit still for long amounts of time. This has caused problems for him at home, but he feels that it may be able to help him on his journey and training. Jack is the type of kid who keeps his emotions bottled up...that is unless a girl comes into his vicinity. He is very terrible at hiding how he feels for women and often makes a full out of himself if confronted by one due to his drooling, nervousness, lack of speech, and staring at places he should not. Basically his hormones are out of control quite a bit. But he gets by and this may be one of his only flaws. That is except the fact that Jake could never stand to see a friend get hurt and would do anything to protect the people he cares about.
Background:
Jack had grown up on the outskirts of Sandgem town, where his father opened up his own little traning gym for passing by trainers. From what Jack could tell during his early life, his parents seemed happy, they seemed inseperable...they were a family. Jacks father Bruce, would let him [COLOR=blue ! important][FONT=inherit ! important][COLOR=blue ! important][FONT=inherit ! important]watch[/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR] his training battles and he
would even give the boy tips. Jack loved these bonding moments but at the same time his father could be a little distant. His [COLOR=blue ! important][FONT=inherit ! important][COLOR=blue ! important][FONT=inherit ! important]childhood [/FONT][/FONT][FONT=inherit ! important][COLOR=blue ! important][FONT=inherit ! important]friend[/FONT][/COLOR][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR] was a little blonde girl from twinleaf town named Sonya. The two were close from the ages of 6 to 9 until one day the two wondered off and got attacked by a wild ryhorn. Sonya and Jack's fathers came to their rescue in time, but Sonya's parents had decided to move her away from Jack due to what they called his "reckless nature."
This incident had scarred Jack...he never wanted to lose another person again. But not even a year later after the boy had turned 10 something else happened that would damage Jack even more. After a training battle Jack and his father went home to a good home cooked meal. The entire time something seemed to be on Bruces mind but Jack had no idea what. The next morning when Jack woke up his mother told him that Bruce had run off in the middle of the night and had not returned. Jack who was only a child began to cry in outrage and ran through the woods in search of his role model. He searched all day but found nothing and laid down in the middle of the woods in the dark as tears streamed down his face. Ever since then Jack had passed up all oppurtunites to start his pokemon journey. He stayed at home until he studied and felt prepared enough. Jack didn't want the man who abandoned a mother and her child for 7 years to come back anymore...Jack wanted to revenge.[/FONT]
