Legendary powers: David is a powerful and resilient individual, his body having properties that make it difficult for him to be cut and made to bleed however this strength has left him more vulnerable to brute force attacks, his body being easily bruised and his bones easily crushed. His body is very responsive to rocks of all kind, often to recover after suffering injuries he will place stones on his wounds that cause him to heal at a much faster rate. Most of his moves come from using the incredible herculean strength his body provides him.
Held item: Leftovers
Appearance:
Personality: David is a cold, and harsh judge of character. His attitude towards people has always been one of pushing those around him to reach their potential. Arrogance, reckless behavior and selfish attributes are the core opponents of his life's philosophy. Since becoming an avatar, his personality has fused with Regirocks, now feeling an immense desire to protect nature and Pokemon. David believes the best way to see the true heart of a person is through battle, and how they fight is far more important that the outcome of the battle. With a rigid code, and the ideology that those who have power, have a responsibility to use it to help others and not for selfish gain.
Backstory:
David started life as an archaeologist at the age of eighteen, interested in researching fossil pokemon and the formation of rock type pokemon. His own Tirtouga that he carries comes from one of his first digs inside a Unova temple. His early twenties where spent travelling, exploring and learning. His skill as a pokemon trainer was low, and for a long time Tirtouga never got to spend much time battling, instead being used as a travelling companion.
The power plague never affected Tirtouga, because the time the duo spent in isolation in deserts the worst of the plague skipped over them. David thought that his life wouldn't be affected by the virus. Until he fell into a ruin. A broken leg, and a lack of equipment he assumed that would be the end of him. To die trapped within a tomb on route 111. To his great surprise, the rocks around him gave him great strength. His broken leg healed within minutes. Arcues had fused his soul with the soul of Regirock and granted him new powers. His life of temple diving and underground mining where behind him. He felt a surge of responsibility.
David spent the next few months testing himself, and his ability to train Pokemon. Him and Tirtouga now shared thoughts, and battling went from a crude and ineffective system to the two having synchronized minds that could analyze and respond to a variety of battling situations. Whilst his prowess as a trainer increased, he also tested his own skill. Learning how his new body worked, unaware for a long that his body was fused with the legendary pokemon. Unsatisfied with living around humans, he moved to a life of living outdoors - finding comfort in caves, not needing warmth or sheets to keep him comfortable. Stone was all he needed.
His reputation grew, escalating to the status of urban myth. Trainers who encountered him where challenged to a pokemon battle, demanding that the person express themselves. The only way he could truly judge somebody was how they treated their pokemon in a battle. The majority of trainers where allowed safe passage that he over-watched after the battle, regardless if they won or lost. For trainers he deemed to be arrogant, ungrateful and poor as trainers, he battled himself. Dreams of a stone golem calling to him, demanding he fight for freedom and justice, to protect the weak.
