Name: Capri Castillo
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Hometown: Just outside of Fuchsia City
Appearance:
Along with her overalls, she also wears a pair of brown suede cowboy boots that are quite worn out!
Capri has a thick southern drawl. She refers to everyone as "Hun", "Darlin'", "Sweetie" ect. Her arms and legs are toned from doing manual labor all day, but other than that she doesn't really do much to keep her body in great shape. She would rather have some ice cream to tell ya the truth.
Interests and goals: Capri's primary goal is to raise and train a wonderful team of Pokémon to their full potential. Like many other trainers, she plans on obtaining every badge in the Kanto region with hopes of becoming a champion! She is interested in having a strong bond with each and every one of her Pokémon.
Capri also loves food and loves to eat food. A lot. She is always interested in trying out all the food that is available and her bottomless pit of a stomach makes it very easy for her to end up spending a fortune on snacks alone.
Family:
Father: Capri spent her childhood working hard on her father's ranch. Her father, Archer, could be described as a rough man, who according to Capri is "lacking a sense of humor". He is a very serious man, who is constantly at work on the farm. Who could blame him though? It's not easy taking care of an entire herd of Tauros! Especially when those obnoxious things are constantly stampeding through the fences. Even though he may seem like a very intimidating man he does have a soft spot for Capri, since she is his only child.
Mother: Capri's mother, Lyla, left Archer when Capri was just a baby. Lyla is a deadbeat to say the least….. no one has heard from her since she left…..
Gus: Gus was Capri's childhood best friend! When Capri wasn't working on the list of barn chores that her father had given her every morning, she would be out and about with Gus! The two would spend countless hours running through the Tauros fields, jumping off the barn roof into hay bales(which was eventually forbidden because Archer wasn't about to have a small child break their arm and not be able to help out at the ranch) or just causing trouble and mischief wherever they went! Unfortunately Gus and his family moved to the Johto Region a few years ago and Capri and him weren't able to stay in touch.
Strengths:
Early Bird: With all the work that was always needed to be done at the barn it was a necessity to be up and ready to roll by the crack of dawn! Even though she is not working at the ranch anymore, she still believes that waking up early is a key element in becoming a great Pokémon trainer! Because waking up early = more hours to train!
Happy Go Lucky: Capri has a permanent smile glued to her face! She just thoroughly enjoys life and everything along with it! Her laugh can be heard from miles away and her cheerful spirit tends to make others jolly as well. People wonder where she gets her sweet attitude from because it certainly is not from her father!
Adventurous: Capri is always eager to explore! Whether it's a new town, city, forest, cave, store, or just a neighbor's or friend's house(lol okay creeper) she is down to venture through it all! Admiring the lovely scenery as she goes! Oh, and the food!
Weaknesses:
Clingy: Between her childhood best friend moving and her mother's disappearance, Capri really struggles when people leave her. She will try to hold on to someone for as long as she can which can really irritate others. Her father is on speed dial on her poke-cellphone and she makes sure she calls him every night before she falls asleep.
Humor: Good gracious this poor girl will laugh at anything that is even just remotely funny! The worst part is the fact that when she starts laughing it is difficult for her to stop! Her laugh will eventually sound like a Seel and tears will start to roll down her eyes. "Seriously, Capri, it's really not even that funny."
Gluttony: How this girl doesn't resemble a Snorlax is a mystery. Capri can always be found with a snack in her pocket, or hand, or in her mouth. She sure does love to munch and sometimes this can get in the way of training!
Starter Pokemon:
![[PokeCommunity.com] Begin Again (OOC) [PokeCommunity.com] Begin Again (OOC)](https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/black-white/anim/normal/ponyta.gif)
Ponyta
"Crim"
Female
Charm, Stomp, Flame Wheel, Ember, Double Team
Because what is a ranch without some Ponyta and Rapidash? Capri and Crim were instantly drawn to each other when Archer bought a handful of Ponyta to help pull equipment at the ranch. Capri spent many hours teaching all the Ponyta how to pull the equipment, and Crim was the only one to do so without causing chaos. When Capri told her father she was going to begin her journey to become a great Pokemon Trainer, her father told her she shouldn't start her journey alone. He decided to "retire" Crim from the ranch and she can now start her new job as Capri's partner! Unfortunately, this has left the already oh so grumpy Archer with a group of mischievous Ponyta.
