(Don't know if this checks out, but here ya go) [b]Name:[/b] Tyrone "Vice" Jervis [b]Age:[/b] 25 [b]Profession:[/b] Pokemon Trainer (Formerly a member of Team Rocket's Johto Branch) [b]Goal:[/b] To do his own research on Pokemon through battle. [b]Affiliation:[/b] Neutral [b]Hometown:[/b] Blackthorne City (Johto) [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]http://i.imgur.com/AYvUvia.jpg[/img] [b]Personality:[/b] He has the attitude of a punk, and can hold his own in a brawl. He surprisingly knows a lot about pokemon, despite his appearance. At times he can be a smartass. He takes care of his Pokemon fairly well, and knows their limits. On the other hand, he doesn't know his own limits in fights. Absolutely HATES any criminal group with the word "Team" in their name. [b]History:[/b] Born and raised in Blackthorne, Tyrone took interest in Pokemon after watching several battles and hunts performed by Dragon-type Pokemon for territory or food. He took interest in their habits and behavioral patterns. All throughout his school life, he tried to focus on classes that would get him a job as a Pokemon Researcher. This would lead him to choose extremely difficult classes in high school. He had to spend hours studying in order to keep up. This led him to flunk his other classes, eventually forcing him to drop out of high school. Knowing that no research facility would hire a Highschool dropout like him, Tyrone searched desperately for a job, more focused on staying financially stable than pursuing his life goal. Unfortunately, he lacked the qualifications and knowledge to get him a good job in any sort of business. Refusing to take on low-paying jobs, he had no other choice but to turn to criminal activities. He had to go through several "tests", but he managed to become a grunt in Team Rocket's Johto branch. He mainly had a hand in Pokemon smuggling, Black Market business, but he occasionally helped "fix problems." He got his nickname from his unique ways of killing people. He would usually use the Pokemon that other grunts had at their disposal to handle the problem. Having a Victreebel consume and dissolve a person, or having a group of Carvanha swarm, rip apart, and devour them made things much less costly ways of killing someone and disposing the body. One day he found that some of the other Rocket grunts were doing something with the Pokemon that didn't sell. They were taking their parts to sell instead. Tyrone could tolerate animal abuse to a certain extent, but this was something he couldn't stand for. He knew he couldn't stop it, but he knew he could get away from it. It put a target on his head, but Tyrone left the organization, stealing a Noibat from them on his way out. To escape their sights, he immediately took a ship to Hoenn. Tyrone wouldn't find that much peace from other regions though, as there were still several other criminal organizations working around the world. Each doing some sort of action that pissed him off. He travelled from one region to another using the money he made back in his Rocket days. He moved to the Scarlet Isles in order to escape all that. Little did he know that there was one there too. He became a Pokemon Trainer initially to make money in case he ran out, but found something in Pokemon battles that got him interested in them.
