>>46010989>Job + PokemonJonno is a gym leader in the RP group I'm a part of (removed from that canon, he'd be a gym leader in-training) and it's for sure lifelong - he loves battles and all his cousins are crazy good at them, so he wants to take that knowledge and apply it in a new way and be something of an authority on it. Hell, within the RP group he's the one that actually establishes the league challenge for that region.
As for his Pokemon, they're for sure tied to the theme...for the most part. While he prefers bug types the most his gym theme is the "Forest" Gym, so it's not exclusive to just bug types for one. For two, however, he likes to prepare trainers for the unexpected and will use unconventional or left-field Pokemon like Rhyperior to throw challengers off and make them improvise. Has at least 2 boxes worth of Pokemon and will make new teams near every day for fun.
>Overarching storyline/arcTheir personal timeline is pretty flexible given that he's used primarily in an RP group - the league has enough gym leaders now, he recently got over a death of another player character (who actually hated Jonno's guts but imparted some very useful wisdom that helped Jonno grow as a person), and plans for the championship are closely reaching their deadline - he's good rn.
>What do you use them for? Are they a self insert?They're used primarily for the RP/DnD group and Artwork - gives me a great excuse to use a lot of Pokemon in showdowns and other environments when I would normally pass them up in the mainline games! And yes, Jonno was designed as something of a self insert - I had planned to make a bunch of comics based on the mainline games a la Nuzlockes where all the main characters have the same appearance but different personalities and backstories because they would all be a family a la Don George or Nurse Joy - said appearance being based on mine. This version of Jonno was made to go with that idea, but with my own traits exaggerated for funnies
