Posting here because im gonna apply, will edit my sheet
Age: 16
Gender: M
Nationality: Galarian
Personality: Lachlan is a hot headed, fast-to-fight young man who strives to impress his father and to be remembered in history. He has a fear of being forgotten by people and always tries his best to leave a strong impression on people to cement his place in their brain. Sometimes he has no brain to mouth filter and just says what he thinks without really considering the concequences but never means any harm by what he says. His loose tounge can sometimes get him in trouble, consequently either resulting in a pokemon battle, or a swift apology as Lachlan realizes what he said exactly.
Biography: Lachlan was born in Motostoke, Galar. His mother left him when he was a baby, and he never met her. His dad says that she moved to Sinnoh, and wont tell him much more than that. Lachlan’s dad never really had much money, and would say that Lachlans mother was the one who worked more. When she left his dad got a job as a receptionist at the gym to support them, and rented a small apartment for them to live in. He is very close to his dad, and they would go fishing in the wild area outside the city, often spending the whole day enjoying the relaxing activity.
As time passed, Lachlan got to spend less and less time with his dad due to trainer school and his dad’s job becoming more demanding due to a promotion. As a way to make up for it his dad gave him his first pokemon, a Galarian Zigzagoon named Zigs, for his 13th birthday. Lachlan began spending his free time while his dad was working playing with Zigs in the wild area near the pond he and his dad used to fish at. About a year later while he was with Zigs at the pond another boy from Motostoke bet Lachlan that he couldnt catch a pokemon before he could. The two boys raced off through the wild area, looking for the first pokemon that they could catch. Eventually they found a group of Applin both of them used almost every pokeball they had to try to get one but on his second to last pokeball Lachlan caught it before the other boy could catch his.
Lachlan later heard of the international league and told his father that he was going to leave to challenge it to get them out of that tiny apartment and into somewhere more comfortable. Upon arriving to the region he was given an egg to help him start out, and after a day spent in the hotel it hatched into a Toxel.

Eventually they found a group of Applin both of them used almost every pokeball they had to try to get one but on his second to last pokeball Lachlan caught it before the other boy could catch his.
Lachlan was on his way back up to his dad’s apartment after a visit to the pond, when he passed by a store and noticed some new faces around town. Curious, he decided to get a bit closer to see what was going on. He walked through the front door of the store and started browsing shelves nearby to see if he could hear what they were saying.
Inside the store, Alaric was bored. Extremely bored. He had no idea why his parents had coaxed him to come along to this trip, and he’d rather do anything than stand idly by while they negotiated business deals and production quotas for specific articles of clothing. Whilst he had an interest in fashion, he had zero interest in business or economics, which was the topic of the day it seemed, as they’d went to 3 different shops already. He decided he’d sneak out and get some fresh air. His parents were too engrossed in the conversation to notice.
As he was about to walk out, he noticed someone walking in. A kid, around his age with very similar features to his. Light hair, reddish eyes though the difference in clothing was quite stark. He ended up colliding into him, though he’s not sure who was to blame given both were walking rather briskly to where they wanted to go.
Lachlan was so focused on the items in the store and listening to the two people by the counter, he barely noticed the boy who had collided with him until it was too late. Startled, he jumped back and fell on his butt. “Mate! You surprised me, you must really wanna get outta here huh?” he chuckled, “Well, for knockin me on my bottom like that why don’t we have a battle!?” Grinning, Lachlan got to his feet and extended a hand to the boy, “Name’s Lachlan.”
Within seconds of trying to exit, he found himself on the ground, though he’d landed rather well. Alaric was confused how the collision even happened, but alas, he didn’t feel like questioning himself or this unfortunate kid who he bumped into. He stood up first and spoke to Alaric before offering an arm up, which Alaric gladly took.
“You have no idea, I feel like my brain is about to fry from listening to them for so long.” he spoke as he dusted himself off and began to address the rest of what Lachlan had said. A battle. He’d been offered one, and he did have his pokemon on him. He let out a smug grin. This was his time to shine, and prove himself a worthy trainer.
“A battle, eh? I won’t say no, but I’ll have you know that in my 14 years on this planet, I have never once lost a Pokemon battle.” he declared. Little did his opponent know that he had never once fought in a battle.
“That only means it will show everyone how strong I am when I beat you.” Lachlan said confidently as Zigs poked his head out of Lachlan’s bag and over his shoulder. “My partner Zigs and I are going to be the best one day.” Lachlan patted the Zigzagoon’s head, then turned back to Alaric and gestured for him to follow as he walked out of the store, leading him to a park not far away.
“Heh. A bold statement. Especially considering when I, Alaric, soon to be the greatest trainer from the Hoenn region am here. Me and my partner will show you our power!” he spoke confidently as he let out his Ralts from the pokeball he had at his waist. It seemed as exceedingly confident as his trainer.
“I’ve only have need for one pokemon. I’ll allow you to use as many as you want, as I cannot lose!” he laughed as he looked at Lachlan with his arms folded, ready to battle.
Zigs hopped out of Lachlan’s bag and past his head out in front of him. “It would only be fair for me to use a single pokemon too then.” Lachlan said, his confidence only slightly wavering toward the beginning. He raised one arm out in the air before him and shouted “Lets do this!”
As epic as the two hyped the battle up to be, it fell flat. Both were complete novice trainers who had never fought in a Pokemon battle, and as a result, it was a messy affair. Tackles and psybeams went left and right as both Pokemon tried desperately to bring their trainers home the victory. In the end, Alaric took the victory, but not without much effort. In a way, he felt cheated out of a true victory given as his opponent had only used one of his pokemon.
Lachlan knew he could have won had he used all his pokemon, but none the less he accepted his loss and promised next time they battled it would be a different outcome. Satisfied with the time he had killed Lachlan said farewell to Alaric and returned to his dad’s apartment after giving him his rotom phone number.
