>>40259596I have two boys so far, one I unfortunately don't have any art for, and one I have some cute drawings of from a pal of mine.
His name is Jonas and he's from Kanto. My friends and I decided to make characters and play as them through an open-world romhack of Crystal named Crystal Clear.
Jonas wandered into Johto one day after taking a wrong turn and decided to stick around and do the Gym Challenge over there as he worked his way back east.
He's become my juniour researcher character. He took his time sightseeing around Johto and learning about all the monuments while trying his best to fill up his pokedex.
He eventually learned how to make apricorn balls so he uses em to fund his travels by selling them from town to town.
His starter was an Eevee, the rest of his team is Flareon, Murkrow, Hitmonlee, Meganium, and Suicune whom he met while studying the burnt tower.
Part of his early motivation in his pokemon journey was to meet his online friend from Johto, Mari, whom my friend was playing as. Their pokemon journey's started around the same time so they took the opportunity to meet up eventually.
My other character is a little schoolkid who's off school for the summer, he started with a Pichu he got from his school he practiced with during the year, now he's trying out the Gym Challenge as something to do during the summer and is trying to get as far as he can before schools back in session next month.
He's much less developed than Jonas because he just started his journey.
