(Don't worry, she won't be evil like Star Wars Sato.) NAME: Sato Ryuu GENDER: Female AGE: 14 HOMETOWN: Spark Foam City HEIGHT: 4'8" WEIGHT: 90 lbs HAIR: Black, pin-straight with a centre parting, falls down to her hips. EYES: Dark brown CLOTHES: School uniform. PERSONALITY: An aloof and distant young girl stuck in middle school, Sato may come across as cold or eerie, to those who first meet her. In truth, the Japanese teenager means no harm, she simply prefers the company of pokemon to humans. A daydreamer and far more playful than her demeanour suggests, Sato does not enjoy school and struggles with her assignments. While she may look the innocent flower, she is often in trouble for skipping school, stealing and running away to search for pokemon. Despite the lack of interests she takes in her schoolwork, Sato puts a tremendous amount of effort into her pokemon training which she thoroughly enjoys. She enjoys nature and being around the water and can often be found hanging out by the docks of Spark Foam Lake. Aside from pokemon training, she likes reading manga, watching horror movies and anything cute. 
POKEMON: Eevee 
NAME: Umeki GENDER: Female PERSONALITY: Her owner, Sato, has always had a habitually kind heart for pokemon in need and she rescued Umeki from a rescue centre a few years ago. The two have since become inseparable friends and Umeki is slowly learning to trust humans again after living with her owner. Still, the Eevee remains haughty and aloof, much like her owner and rules over her domain like a pampered cat. However, Sato's young age and fondness for pokemon often gets in the way of her training, she often spoils her Eevee too much, treating her more like a best friend rather then a competitor. Because of her harsh upbringing, Umeki has a tendency to be vicious towards unfamiliar people or anyone who treats her owner with hostility. |
Name: Keisuke Hayashi Age: 20 Hometown: Lamprey Town Personality: Keisuke lives to be Nariko's older brother; in his eyes, that means making sure she is safe and provided for. Keisuke is a very secretive young man, and keeps his thoughts close to his chest; no one really get's anything from him other than a strong 'jerk' vibe. Keisuke's mother passed with an illnesses when he was a teenager, and his father -- a Pokémon professor -- left shortly after - moving on to another region, and leaving his children to the school system with only a financial security in the form of the family home outside Lamprey town. Their lives continued in a fairly normal manner until Keisuke finished school; whereas he was reserved before his mother's death, he now became totally withdrawn, and somewhat of a trouble-maker as he lashed out and got upset and angry. After he left school, government funding for his and Nariko's livelihood ran out, and whilst they still had the house, they had no money for expenses. Keisuke struggled to find a job, no one wanted to hire a guy with the reputation of a violent introvert. That attitude did draw the attention of a less reputable crowed though: Team Mystery. Keisuke quickly fell in to a life of a Team Mystery grunt with his Cyndaquil (he had wanted to be a trainer in his earlier teens) to earn a quick buck for the sake of his and his sisters survival; as he wouldn't contact their father due to pride and dislike for him. Nariko hated his decision, and the fact that her big brother had become what everyone said he was; she thought she knew better, but that doesn't stop her faith in him sometimes being shaken. This doesn't bother Keisuke though, as long as Nariko is safe and cared for. Pokemon 
Species: Quilava Nickname: - Gender: Male Personality: Quilava used to be playful and a carefree counterbalance to Keisuke's stark and prideful character when they were younger; they were best friends and playmates. They did everything together, and that kind of connection can carry pain as well as love. So when Keisuke took a turn for the worst, when he stopped caring what the world thought of him, when he started hating it's resentment, Quilava fell into step. The Pokémon is still the far more amiable of the pair, but he seems to have taken on the severe attitude that Keisuke used to have. He is not so hateful or nasty as Keisuke, but simply austere, concerned with little else beyond Keisuke and Nariko, and occasionally attempting to rekindle Keisuke's youthfulness.

Name: Nariko Hayashi Age: 15 Hometown: Lamprey Town Personality: Moxie doesn't do well enough to sum up the fire in Nariko's stomach and the tenacity of her integrity and friendship, but it comes about as close as it gets. Nariko loved her big brother very overtly as much as he cared for her from behind his cool mask, and they got on so well before their families fortune took a turn for the worse. Since Keisuke declined into his life of crime, he has been cold and dismissive towards Nariko, and it breaks her heart. Since she is a strong and persistent spirit however, she does well to cover up her misgivings and sorrows with a highly competitive attitude, determination to prove her worth (as she gets no recognition from her brother), and all around hotheadedness. She found a friend and surrogate brother in her schoolmate Romolus, who she likes to emulate in attitude and daringness to gain his attention; even going so far as to copy his bandages, although she doesn't need them. Pokemon 
Species: Joltik Nickname: Yaki Gender: Male Personality: For all that it mattered to the little Pokémon, any unhappiness in the world may not have existed. Yaki lives to have fun and be happy, and only show's signs of being upset when his sister Nariko is upset. Yaki is deathly afraid of Kaisuke's Quilava, and is consistently furious with Keisuke himself, but other than that, there's not stopping the wee beastie. Exceedingly energetic, outgoing, and brave, the little Joltik is as ready to take on any task as it's friend Nariko is, and is so super excited to be doing so.
