Trainer Profile

Character Name: Michael Meh
Nickname: Mikey
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Trainer Class: Pokemon Trainer

Height: 5'11

Weight: 160 lb

Hair Color & Style: Fizzy dark brown hair with twisted upward tips, essentially the start of dreads. Around the earline of his edge the hair fades.

Eyes: Dark brown irises and narrowly shaped eyes like the general size of a realistic being. The occasional dark bags are apparent due to no amount of sleep being enough for this fellow. His right eye brows have an stylized cut through them.

Clothing/Accessories: Mikey thoroughly enjoys lounging around, so much so that he tends to stick to outfits revolving around comfortable bed ware. For him that would be a simple tank top and a pair of sweatpants with athletic socks and sandals. If cold, he'll wrap himself in a blanket and throw on a beanie. If hot, instead of wearing sweat pants, he'll put on gym shorts.

General Appearance: Although both his parents are heavy set, Mikey is rather slim. The teen has little muscle mass, just enough not to be consider scrawny. Despite rarely getting any sun, Mikey has a well tanned ebony skin tone. His body has no noticeable scars and is uninked. Upon first inspection, one could easily see him as face palm material. He appears as the type of individual that makes a serious trainer question, "Why?" Why is he a trainer? He clearly shows no type of resolve, so, what's the purpose? That or maybe as a joke. Which would lead into one of his more common problems, being underestimated.

Personality:

Thanks to his parents, this young man has no motivation once so ever. Mikey rather breeze through life adrift in the wind with no care in the world. Living at home with good old ma and pa has always been priority number one for this cat. Mainly because he know's history repeats itself and he'll end end up fat failures like his parents. Unfortunately this feisty feline never seems to catch a break, always being asked to do the things people with lives do, like train Pokemon and get out of bed. Ewh, why must they make him fight his destiny?

Michael is a laid back teen who rarely complains about anything unless he's trying to make a funny. To which his sharp tongue comes into play. Mikey is quite immature and indulges in creating drama. Though instigating is his only role in such affairs. He is way too lazy to care about replying or following through with a scene. He rather watch others act up instead. Likewise, Mikey is infamous for walking out on anything of importance. Commitment was just a trait he never cared to learn.

Forcing him to get up early in the morning or just waking him up in general is two of the most hurtful things one could do to Mikey. Doing so will result in whining and grouchiness from him for the rest of the day. And of course an occasional revenge prank has a strong possibility to occur.

Typically Mikey can be considered a true neutral character. He doesn't care much for right or wrong as long as he isn't involved. He does everything he can to start petty fights but when law and crime are associated he is out. Not wanting any part of it. That is unless it is of benefit to him, like obtaining a certain pokemon through dirty methods to capture it first or saving a town from brutes because he was promised a Snorlax. When in a party with other trainers he's close with, he will usually tag along with whatever they want to do even if he doesn't like it. Simply to complain and annoy them.

Hometown: Vertosheer Town, East Godai
History:

Growing up Mikey was an energetic social butterfly. He bounced off the walls at home and school wanting to only be the center of attention. As the class clown he could have been considered a playful bully, one that picked on others not to be mean or to hide an insecurity but just to be funny. His friends laughed which was enough support to encourage him to be funnier. Then one day in Primary School, Mikey's first career day came around. Parents were invited to go over their occupations and how they discovered them. That's when Mikey found comedy gold. Many of the other kid's parents were trainers, a few of which didn't do so well. Mikey used to hang around the students with successful parents and teased the less successful off springs, telling them that they'll be failures just like their parents.

But, Mikey's parents were one of the few who couldn't make the event. Which brewed up curiosity. One of Mikey's victims did their homework on him and found out his parents were in league with the worse of the class. And Mikey didn't even know. He just assumed they were bausses... just, y'know, cause. For years he harassed others, telling them they couldn't be any different from their parents. It was only a joke but what if he was right? What if little Mikey was preaching truth. He was now scared of the future. He couldn't be a trainer. That was just a disaster waiting to happen.

From then on until Primary School graduation, the tables were turned. His friends betrayed him and teased him. It was strange how it was no longer funny on this side of the spectrum. He pursued comfort in the fellow victimized students but they couldn't accept the person who started the mockery as a friend. It was his just desserts. They left him alone to fend for himself. And eventually he found out that the embarrassment of eating alone at lunch didn't last as long if he slept through it. Oh, didn't have anyone to do his lab with? Heh, screw the lab, sleep through. Everything started growing old and dull anyway, wasn't like there was much to look forward to. Nothing seemed to have purpose.

His heart, eyes, even breaths began to feel heavy. He was just... tired. No amount of sleep was ever enough. He began to grow numb to his surroundings, rarely did words send a hot wave of embarrassment through him. He just didn't care. As everyone went off to be a trainer or enter Secondary School, Mikey did neither. He laid at home; sleeping, eating, watching TV. T'is the life of a Meh and who was he to fight it?

He didn't care that his parents weren't all that, he was sure they tried their best. But what was the point of him trying? His best wouldn't have been any better.

Now, as an 18 year old. On the out side Mikey still seems to care very little of his environment, let alone the world. But deep inside he continues to feel failure harboring within. His mother only won one contest her entire career and his father failed to win any badges. Concerned for their child, his parents told him the exact thing he dreaded for years.

They told him to get a life.

Well that practically. They told him to be a Pokemon trainer. They didn't care if he was good or not, he just needed to see the world... and stop eating up all their food.

The next day his father drove him to Skytouch Forest. There he was to search for a Pokemon and have his mother battle and catch it for him. The first Pokemon he laid eyes upon was a rather rare one for the area. It was an Slakoth. And not caring much for the trainer thing in general he told his mother that was the Pokemon for him. She refused to battle it, knowing Slakoth would have been a bad influence on him... but Mikey was tired and wasn't about to search for a better Pokemon. He approached the little guy and asked if he wanted to join him on a journey. Slakoth looked around, shrugged his shoulders, gesturing, "Whatever," then nodded. And unfortunately for his mother, Mikey had the pokeballs. He simply dropped one on Slakoth's head and from there it was history. Annoyed, his mother stormed off to the car after bitterly saying good bye. His father then drove her home.

And well, Mikey was officially a trainer with a Pokemon now. A trainer too lazy to name his first pokemon, but a trainer non the less. Thus marks the beginning of the Meh Chronicles.

Hey again Deme! I already welcomed you and I’m sure you wanna get accepted as soon as possible so let’s keep this nice and short -

Firstly, for your ”Eyes”, tis a grand colour! But please be a bit more specific. Such as their shape, or size, or how they’re placed on the forehead. Perhaps how it also compliments with the eyebrows, etcetc.

His ”General Appearance” is wonderfully short and sweet! But perhaps give one or two more sentences about how others would see him based on any first impressions.

Then, for his ”Personality”, I love it! However, especially with your style, I’m positive you can add in much more to make Michael a more wholesome character. For example, constantly ask yourself the “why”s for this character. Why does he have no motivation whatsoever, what does he feel towards certain things? What about seeing a crime - will he not care too? How about his other morals or deeper beliefs? Is he also too lazy or uncomfortably with taking a stance on anything? When pushed into a corner or other foreign feelings arise, how does he cope with it? Etcetc. Don’t be afraid to really get into the details!

The same goes with his ”History”. Although it currently compliments the main part of his personality - and not necessarily the other bits - well, it’s still lacking a lot of how Michael had come to be from a toddler to his teens, and now beginning of adulthood. Again, ask the “why”s and “how”s to be who he is today. Why did he care very little of the world? What made it so darned uninteresting that he was holed up in home or his own world? What are these failures that plague the depths of his mind? Specific ones or has he not given it too much thought? How was his relationship with his parents? What about school? What about friends? Basically all that applied to us (real life people) and the events that transpired that molded us to be who we are currently. Again, don’t be afraid to dig deep into Michael to make a much more realistic person with his own fair share of brewing troubles - and if not - why? How? So on and so forth.

Lastly, for your ”Pokedex”, you’re very close! Because Slakoth was caught at level 5, if you look at the ”EXP Table”, you’ll see that “Slow” and “Level 5” is not (0/7). Therefore, Slakoth’s ”EX Gauge” is incorrect.

If you have any further questions feel free to PM a staff and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible! Please post a reply when any edits have been made. Good luck! ♥

Daaayuumm, very nice edits! I'm almost satisfied with all of them. The only thing I think needs a bit more work on is his "History"!

You've already done great for his "Personality" where you've added in quite a bit of detail so I'm going to ask you to specifically go into detail of the childhood years and his preteen years. For example how was his relationship with his parents after said incident? Why does he feel that his father not having earned a badge and his mother only winning one contest? How exactly did that make him turn very apathetic instead of going "Well if my parents didn't do well, /I/ will do better than them!" as that is a most common trait for children.

That's also a rather huge gap from his childhood to 18 years old. What exactly happened (or other things) happened between then? If there were people out to get him and do this research - why did someone go through such "lengths" to tell his bubbly boy otherwise? How and what does it mean to "grow tired and never recovered"? No defending his parents? No living in denial? No challenging it? Just giving up like that? For what reasons? Children are very stubborn individuals until their external environments and upbringing forces them otherwise. Think a bit more of childhood development or what other reasons would cause this young bubbly lad to turn into this sullen and apathetic man today. If we had to sum it up, his "actual history" is only two very short paragraphs long. I know you can do much better than that!

Like I said, everything else is great except for just a bit more for his History! You know the drill!
