Personality: Russet is a simple Pokemon with a single-track mind, he often focuses too much on whatever task is on hand to the exclusion of everything else. He is not someone that has many ambitions, but he is a hard-working Pokemon nonetheless. Modest and friendly, it isn't very difficult to befriend him. He has the unfortunate tendency to blindly listen to anyone who has even the smallest amount of authority and stick to them with unwavering loyalty. Overall, Russet is not someone who'll sit down and think about the complexity of life; he sees no point in wasting time on things like that.
Brief History: Russet was born and raised on his family's farm, the second child out of six. Most of his childhood was spent on the farm, passed down from his father's generation, along with his mother, father, and his siblings. He tilled the fields, helped carry produce to the nearby town's marketplace, and took care of his younger siblings. Living with such a large family was great at times, horrible at others, but it taught Russet patience, cooperation, and understanding. He was brought up to eventually take care of the farm once his parents had moved on to "greater pastures", along with his siblings and, some day, pass it down to their own children. It was a simple life, but it was rewarding.
Unfortunately as the world grew dangerous, his family became unable to sustain itself on just farming; the roads became dangerous and the land lost its fertility. Russet had grown and evolved, becoming the second of his siblings to do so. It was decided among the family that someone would have to leave and earn the money that the family desperately needed. Russet and his sister, barely younger than him, volunteered to head out. After saying their farewells and gathering their bags, they both set out towards town in search for opportunities.
That was about five years ago, and since then things have gotten better. Russet's sister became a record keeper for the town near their family's farm, and Russet himself became a trustworthy courier, delivering packages and mail from town to town at great speeds. His job had taken him to many interesting locations, and he manages to bring some his earnings back to his family every month or so. As for the farm, it's gotten somewhat better. The plants became hardier and were able to withstand the changes in the land and guards patrol the roads, but the farm is a long way from fully recovering what it has lost, not to mention the recent string of unnatural events.
A delivery has taken him to Sunny Town, only a day's travel away from his family's farm. He has been considering leaving his job as a courier, if only so he could finally settle down somewhere nice.
