Judas Alto

20

Male

Trapinch

Johto

Standing around "6'1 and weighing in at 185 lbs, you can find Judas wearing a black tank top, and wearing a jacket with a large popped collar over it, because he thinks it looks cool. He also wears a red scarf, because he thinks it looks cool. The gloves are mainly just to cover up all the wounds on his hands from handling his Trapinch, Squegg, who likes to bite. Lastly, Judas wears brown pants, full of pockets for him to forget things in, and a white bag slung over his shoulder for just about everything else. Judas has no fashion sense.

Full of false bravado, Judas wants desperately to play the hero, but that's easier said than done. He's a total newbie, but likes to think he knows what he's doing. While Judas tries to do good, he unknowingly can cause a bit of trouble, and usually gets in way over his head. Not to mention, being the son of a pokemon scientist who works directly under a pokemon professor has its benefits. Judas knows many things about pokemon behavior, biology, ecology, and more! While his knowledge isn't quite as vast as his father or the Professor, it can certainly come in handy raising pokemon. In the end, when you really get down to it, Judas sticks to his word, and will be there when you need him, doing his best.

Judas was born in Violet city, Johto. He lived there for 19 years before his father got a new job in the Orre Region. Judas' father was a scientist, and worked directly under Professor Elm whilst they were in Johto, and worked directly under Krane in Orre.

Living in a city with a trainer school, Judas learned much about pokemon from both the school and his father. While he never got his own pokemon, the family vulpix, and whatever his father brought home provided good basic experience in battling and care for different types of pokemon. Eventually, it was time to move to Orre, and meet the new professor.

From what Judas could tell, Krane was working on some sort of "Purifying Machine" for "Shadow Pokemon". Apparently they were corrupted by the Orre equivalent of Team Rocket. While Judas wanted to help, he had little knowledge of this kind of stuff, and couldn't do much.

Eventually Krane said he was gathering a few young people to go out and get said shadow pokemon, as well as fight off Team Snagem. Judas was one of the first to apply. Problem was, Judas didn't have his own pokemon, and the family vulpix was a little to domesticated to be a battling partner. It was time to catch his first pokemon.

Going to the surrounding desert of Phenac City, Judas looked for a prime target. Many diglett and sandshrew could be found, but he wasn't interested in those. Judas knew of the pokemon Trapinch hid in the desert, and would one day become a mighty Flygon. After a brisk search, Judas' search bore fruit, and a Trapinch could be found slowly walking through the sand.

Throwing a pokeball, it landed directly on its big orange mouth, and was sucked inside. The Trapinch put up little in the way of fighting, and was captured quickly. Picking up the pokeball, he took his new friend home, and named him Squegg.

Arriving at home, Judas showed off his partner's. Holding him up in the air the Trapinch blinked slowly and was completely limp. They had a lot of training to do. With the help of his father they did their best to get Squegg fighting fit.

From here, Judas begins his adventure in recovering shadow pokemon, and perhaps even striking a blow against Team Snagem's antics.

Currently carries a single potion, antidote, and paralysis heal. He also has a single pokéball in one of his pockets, but has forgotten about it.

Currently, nothing is in his PC

Mushirou

23

Male

Weedle

Kanto

With fair skin, long, flowing dark hair tied back in a ponytail, a friendly, gentle smile, and a straight, svelte posture, Mushirou looks just a little too soft to be a police officer. Still, he carries himself with the demeanor of one who has been trained his whole life to be regimented, exuding a noble, refined, aristocratic air that hides the cognitive dissonance brewing between his ears.

Mushirou is placid and motherly to his family, friends, and allies, but this is merely a fragile exterior. He maintains a calm serenity as long as what he perceives as order is maintained, but when pushed to the edge, and he is easily pushed to the edge, he begins to reflect the dark truths of his upbringing. To those he perceives as enemies, he is sadistic and ruthless, and tries desperately to return things to a sense of order, believing that the best way to solve a problem is to eradicate it entirely. He idolizes the concept of law, and fantasizes about a dystopian future where everyone knows their place. He is the kind of person who will speak like an abusive mother chastizing her child, while his enemies are slowly succumbing to his pokemon's poison, all while wearing a placid, loving smile on his face.

Mushirou is the fourth son of a traditional military family, his father having served alongside the illustrious Lt. Surge. As a child, Mushirou was always physically weaker than his brothers, having a more feminine build. To his father, Mushirou was a disappointment and learned discipline and obedience the hard way. His greatest failure was when he was rejected from officer academy, unlike his brothers. Unable to prove his strength, Mushirou took his mother's suggestion and went to study under Fuschia Gym Leader Koga, learning that strength was a state of mind, and that ruthlessness and proper conviction was often enough to take down any foe, regardless of physical strength.

Though he was unable to join the army, Mushirou took the next best thing and joined the police force. Now, due to his discipline and lawful ideals, Mushirou has been sent to Orre to root out corruption and crime, and to participate in Professor Krane's new pokemon project, acting as a liaison between Krane's project and law enforcement.

Issac

25

Male

Noibat

Kalos

Issac is a good-looking, if somewhat forgettable guy. With his glasses and rather pedestrian choice in clothing more often than not, one would be hard pressed to initially pick him out of a crowd when he's not working. The only really noteworthy thing about him would be thewhite markings that have been tattoo'd all along his arms. While the symbols themselves hold no particular meaning to them, the act og marking one's body in such a way is a traditional custom of those in Kalos who have taken to worshipping the Legendary Pokemon Yveltal, a vague emulation of the markings that their god carries upon his body.

Issac is a rather calm and resolute man for his age, with eyes that seeme to hold the wisdom of someone twice his age.He speaks softly and has a great deal of both patience and empathy for all creatures and will often try to resolve conflicts peacefully.

That being said, he is far from averse to settling matters in more direct ways if the need to do so arises and those he talks to refuse to listen to reason. It's in these moments that his Gym training tends to come out, his calm persona turning stoic and focused as he studies his foes for openings.

Issac used to be a Gym Leader from Lumiose City, known for both his skillful use of Dragon-Type pokemon and his equally draconian standards for what made a good trainer, as well as what it took to earn the badge from him. However, that changed during a training trip he took his Gym Trainers on to the mountains of the Kalos region. During the somewhat brutal regimin, the group unknowingly disturbed a herd of Abomasnow, who collectively attemtpted to bury them all in an Avalance.

3 potions, 5 Pokeballs, Backpack with a few days rations and a tent, lots of Pokepuffs. . . like, an obscene amount

Ezra Potts

19

Female

Ivysaur

Alola

Milky, pale skin, bright, watermelon-pink hair, and jade green eyes define the youthful woman. When on the go, she ties her ruffled pink hair into a up-do ponytail, ready for whatever comes next. Her slim, athletic body is usually covered by a black or white blouse and a cute, blue vest or button-up, finishing her outfit with a pair of matching blue-jeans. She considers her style simple and cute, not really having a strong sense of what is in-season or fashionable.

Ezra is filled with curiosity and energetic spirit. She does what she can with extreme gusto, more times than not doing before actually thinking. She has a peppy, can-do attitude and outlook on life, sometimes coming with a bit of annoyance to others. Ezra tries her best to see the light in all situations, no matter how dark.

Originally Ezra's family lived in Celadon City, Kanto but moved to the Alola region when she was five years old, where she was raised since. Growing up on Melemele Island, Ezra attended the Pokemon School where the principal was Samson Oak, the cousin of the well-known Kanto Professor Samuel Oak, him having a well-respected name of his own in the study of Pokemon variations.

Attending the Pokemon School turned out to be a blessing as her curious nature was highlighted by her teachers and peers. As time went on and her studies gradually evolved, Ezra was offered many opportunities and a once in a life time internship to study alongside her principal Professor Oak. Being able to study the regional variants of Alola and comparing them to the Pokemon of her birth region of Kanto was her main area of study during her time as an intern, under the watchful eye of Samson Oak.

As the years went by, her curiosity grew, which made her seek out new opportunities and adventures. Pulling some strings with old connections and friends, her mentor was able to get her into another field of study with a friend in the Orre Region along side Professor Krane who studies Shadow Pokemon.

Colton

19.

Male.

Eevee.

Orre.

Colton is a tall man, just under 6 feet. He usually stands with a formal posture, and wears simple, well-kept cloths. He very rarely shows emotions. He has more tanned skin that what one might expect from the scientific sort; and short, black hair.

At first impression, Colton comes off as a cold, uncaring person, almost to the point where one might assume he is a sociopath. And if you did assume that, you wouldn't be that far off. He has somewhat of a scientific mindset, spending a lot of time so observe his surroundings and how objects, pokemon, and people react; and then simplifying his observations into logical conclusions.

Or at least, that's what Colton would tell you. While the above statement isn't entirely inaccurate, he does have a bigger soft side than he is willing to let on. He is easily startled, and does not like showing traits he sees as "week", which is a broad and poorly defined list. He doesn't like showing emotion and pretends to see pokemon as tools, a facade that shamelessly melts when he is around is Eevee.

Colton is an orphan, hence is lack of a last name. He doesn't know who is parents are, and since he was never adopted it stunted his emotional growth. His orphanage in Orre was destroyed an incident he is pretty sure is related to Cipher, and because of that he is quick to blame the Cipher organization on a lot of his life problems. He never moved out of Orre, mostly because he never had the money, but partially because of a secret, underlying desire to "get back" at the Cipher organization, something he would never admit.

When Colton heard about Krane's research (and the fact that Krane was going against Cipher, intentionally or not), he grew interested and decided to join, and once he was accepted he acquired his first Pokemon, Eevee. Krane was skeptical about hiring Colton, but Colton's scientific mindset convinced Krane to give Colton a shot, since that might help with the gathering of data.

Five Pokeballs, and a notebook for gathering data.

None, yet.
