What is their current location? Moved to sparkplug city at a very young age
Starter Pokémon (choose up to six; you are allowed a maximum of one Stage II and two Stage I's at the start; but if you choose not to have any Stage II Pokémon you can have a maximum of three Stage I's):
1. Weaville, male, “Chief”
In one of his earliest acts of defiance, Antoni traded the Elekid his father gave him so he could one day work for Sparkplug Industries for a Sneasel from a mysterious man from far away. As the first pokemon that he truly had a strong connection with Antoni and Chief always had a strong bond, and eventually chief evolved to a Weavile.
2. Granbull, female, “Twinkletoes”
Antoni’s wealthy aunt from Supreme City sent him a Snubbull for one of his earlier birthdays. While he first scoffed at the childish nature of his pokemon and gave it a timid nickname, he soon realized that this pokemon had more strength that he assumed by its looks. He liked its inner power and once it evolved and gained more strength, he wished he had given it a tougher nickname, but Twinkletoes won’t respond to anything else.
3. Larvitar, male, (no nickname)
Antoni’s newest pokemon, while checking the mail for anything interesting addressed to his father, he found a mysterious package addressed to himself and decided not to let his parents know of it. All that was in the package was the Larvitar and an old fashion looking VHS tape, all with a very familiar looking symbol on them that he couldn’t quite remember…

Why have you chosen this character?: A friend who showed me this RP was telling me a bit about it and as soon as I saw the organized crime boss class the gears in my head started turning and as a pokemon fan and as one who cannot resist an RP, I had to give it a go.
Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in (must be at least 3 paragraphs long and contain at least one line of dialogue):
It was early for Antoni on a weekday, his father was long gone to work at the plant and he had chose to skip class as usual. Looking for something interesting, he went to check the mail to see if there was anything worth poking around in. Same old bills and magazines, no paychecks or fancy letters from Aunt Regina to ‘borrow’ from, but there was a mysterious looking package that Antoni had never seen anything like. Expecting it to be addressed to his father, he took a closer look… only to find that this package was addressed to him. It wasn’t from his aunt and it was too big and too early to be a report card, so he immediately knew this was something out of the ordinary.
He rushed back inside, disregarding the other mail and fleeing to his room with his parcel. Although there was no one home, he tried to be as secretive as possible, making sure the blinds were closed and his room was locked. He opened the package and found a smaller box that looked strikingly familiar, black with a bold red ‘R’ in the middle. He recognized the symbol as he had seen it many times before he had moved to the Toruko region but couldn’t put a name to it. He opened the box to find a single pokeball and an old looking VHS tape.
Thank god my dad is a man of the past he thought to himself as he went to find the tape player in the storage closet. He brought it back to his room and popped in the tape. He was immediately greeted by a voice he had heard before.
“Hello Antoni, you may not remember me, but you once knew me as a very young boy. I am your grandfather, Giovanni, and I have been hearing much about you and how you have almost grown into a man. I know you are inclined to think that if I have heard about you it must be only bad things, but quite the contrary I could not be more impressed with your actions and have decided to send you this message because of them. I was once very much like you as a young man, Antoni, didn’t like anyone telling me what I had to do, telling me I had to conform to society and fit in or never amount to anything. It was outrageous to follow them… all blind sheep following whatever anyone told me to, and that’s not what I was made for and I knew it. I had a bigger plan, I broke out of the line, just like I know you are dying to do yourself! I formed the first organization that ever challenged the authority of these conforming regions, Team Rocket, a glorious crime ring that no one could have challenged except for the one who took me down once and for all before becoming a mad reclose himself… but that is far in the past. Though I am far old in years to rebuild an empire as great as mine once was, I have grown tired of seeing all of these inadequate wannabes try to take it on their own and have been waiting for someone to standout to me, show me a sign that they are ready to step up and show the world that going against the current can work if you have the right attitude and know what it takes to run an empire! And I believe that you, Antoni, have what it takes to show the word that. I have enclosed a pokemon that I feel you will take a liking to once you grow stronger in power and it grows with you, Larvitar, I will leave it to you to learn of its potentials. I strongly encourage you to do what your heart urges you to do and break off from the norm and show everyone that YOU can take over Toruko, one city at a time!”
At the end of the tape, Antoni paused for a long time, letting everything sink in. he was the descendent of the most infamous crime lord to ever walk the earth. It was all staring to make sense to him, he wasn’t some sort of outcast from his family, from everyone. It ran through his veins to want to rebel against the world, to become a part, no, a leader of something bigger than anyone has ever been, and he finally had the motivation to do so. Giddy with this new found destiny of his, Antony gathered his things preparing to run off like he had many times before, except this time he had a purpose, this time it was real.
