Key Item: Poffin Case
Personality: Niko acts like a happy go lucky kid. He smiles and laughs and acts like nothing bothers him. He tries not to show his negative emotions around others. If they see him cry or be sad, it will only push people away even more. He is very affectionate, and is quick to get attached to others, and freely gives hugs to people he feels needs them. He cares very much for people, and do whatever he can to make others happy. He likes the color pink, cute things, and generally stuff that is considered girly by most people. He gets excited easily and he starts yelling and screaming and bouncing all over the place when he gets in one of his moods.

History: His mother and father are divorced, and he lives with his mother and little sister in Hearthome City. He always had a fascination for cute things. He played with stuffed animals while other boys played sports. He even dyed his hair pink because he thought it was a more fun color than his natural brown. For this, he was often bullied. Niko always wore a smile on his face, and acted like the bullying never bothered him. He wanted to set an example for his little sister to look up to. He was the one who had to look after her when his mother was working. He also helped make dinners for the family, which gave him an interest in cooking. Additionally, Niko is estranged from his father. He wanted a son who would become the Pokémon League Champion one day. Obviously, Niko was not that. He was interested in Contests, and preferred to be a coordinator. While his mother was supportive, he was often yelled at and called a sissy by his father on the rare occasions they do see each other. Even still Niko doesn’t hate his dad, and hopes to reconcile with him.

Name: Shin Ashwood
Age: 12
Appearance: Often neat and well-dressed, Shin carries himself confidently for a young teen. He has black hair and red eyes. He's rather average-sized for his age. His clothing is considered traditional in his family and he's very particular about making sure it doesn't get damaged through his adventures.
Key Item: Pokedex

Personality: Shin is the type of kid who tries to be more mature than he really is— emulating adults around him to make sure that he gets taken seriously. He tries to be the voice of reason among his friends though he's easily swayed whenever it's something cool or interesting that's happening. Despite all of his tries to be much more responsible, he falls for his own childish impulsiveness. His demeanor crumbles when he finds something interesting and fawns over it before trying to keep his composure— but continues to miserably fail at it.

History: Shin was born and raised in Pastoria City with his parents. His father is a Pokemon Ranger who was stationed to patrol the Great Marsh while his mother worked within the Safari Zone to make sure that the people are following the rules while also maintaining the Safari Zone. For the most part, Shin has enjoyed a relatively normal life. He hadn't been planning on becoming a trainer, at first. Like most people in Pastoria City, Shin was going to stay inside the city to eventually grow up and help with the protection of the Great Marsh. However, due to watching multiple interviews on Pokemon Trainers, the idea of being able to complete the Pokedex entered his mind. He had stored this dream for when he had more knowledge about Pokemon and battles. When he was ten years old, his mother had brought him to the Safari Zone to help him catch his first Pokemon.

Shin and his mother had found an injured Croagunk during this. Worried, his mother had ordered Shin to bring the Croagunk to the Pokemon center while she went off to investigate. Shin brought the pokemon back to the pokemon center and stayed with the Croagunk and fed it the bait he was given for the Safari. When his mother had returned, reporting to the police that a poacher had been caught, the pair released the Croagunk into the Safari once again. However, a few days after, Shin's mother came back with the same Croagunk, stating that it kept coming to her and the Croagunk stuck with Shin ever since. A few years down the line, Shin finally felt that he was ready enough to take on the world.
