[Arcanum]

EDIT-- Added my bio and alias.

I figured I might as well throw this up here before it's too late, despite it being a little incomplete. I dunno if I'll finish up my backstory by tonight or if it will have to wait for tomorrow. Also, I was originally gonna go as a Trainer, but my determination to only use pokemon from the original 151, as well as using pokemon that I personally liked, as well as ones that had moves that I liked turned out to be a little harder than I thought. Also I figure that being the only Snagger will mean I get the pick of the litter when it comes to stealing pokemon.

Oh and my pokemons' "Standard Move-set" is the moves they'll have unless I decide to change them around before a mission.

Appearance: Mike stands at 5’10” with a lean body. His dark brown hair is cut short, almost buzzed but not quite. His eyes brown are slightly lighter than his hair, but not by much. His wardrobe usually consists of blue jeans and t-shirt, and possibly his tan jacket depending on the weather. His pokeballs containing Charizard and Dragonite are kept on his right hip, while his snagger balls are kept in a pouch on his left.

Backstory: Mike grew up as an orphan on the streets in a big city filled with crime. There was everything, from small gangs to big time mafias and everything in between. Him and a few other orphans managed to survive by pick pocketing and stealing whatever they could. When Mike was twelve years old he managed to steal an empty pokeball, and after a few days of searching the outskirts of the city he caught his own Dratini. Unfortunately one of the small pokemon gangs was watching him, and they made him an offer. Either he joined their gang or they took his Dratini and he’d be stuck scavenging for scraps again. Not left with much of a choice, Mike joined the gang and over the next few years he worked his way up the ranks.

When he was sixteen he had landed himself a nice job stealing other trainers’ pokemon and selling them off to wannabe trainers or other gang members. By this time his Dratini had evolved to a Dragonair, and he had managed to catch his own Charmander in the wild. He kept this up for two years before the local law enforcement cracked down on his gang and arrested nearly everyone involved. Many of the gang members were given their due punishment, while others were allowed to go free after giving information about other gangs. When they came to Mike, however, they gave him the choice between jail time, or a real job on the right side of the law. When he asked why they were offering him a job he was told “You’re skilled, you have good pokemon, and we know you aren’t like the rest of the kids who do this because they like it.” Mike took the job and after a year of mundane police work he was given a position on the Task Force that was “better suited for someone with your skills.”

Personality: Despite his history Mike tends to have a friendly disposition. He's determined to show that the person he was in the past is not the person he is today. He will occasionally seek to lighten the mood with a sarcastic comment or two, and he's always willing to share his thoughts when it comes to making a plan.
