Trainer Profile

Character Name: Ikaia Balvusko
Nickname: Abal, Ikko, Kai
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Trainer Class:Pokémon Trainer

Height: 5’8.5”
Weight: 178lbs

Hair Color & Style: His hair has giant curls in it and it used to be dark brown but being in the sun for too long sun bleached his hair from dark brown to a light sandy brown color. It’s like a Hawaiian Surfer Dude Afro. It is medium sized and extremely wild. If he were to straighten it one day for whatever reason it would stretch down to the middle of his back almost

Eyes: His eyes are a vibrant hazel color in which he gets from his father, something he isn’t entirely proud of but there’s not much he can do about it. They are round and always look extremely relaxed, calm and subtle. When staring at them it’s almost equivalent to lying on a brand new, feather-filled pillow.
Clothing/Accessories:

-:-Winter-:-

During the winter time, Ikaia normally is caught wearing a lot of hooded attire and winter jeans in various colors of blue, grey, and white. The hooded sweat-jacket he is mostly seen wearing is a dark slate blue, with steel blue colored bubbles scattered across it from bottom zipper to top zipper. There are two strings that dangle from either side of the hoods base near the neck of Ikaia and at the end of these strings are clear, golf ball sized, fake bubble balls. The hood of the jacket is supposed to resemble the fins on top of Swampert’s head. The jeans he wears are camo-snow styled.

-:-Spring-:-

Now that the weather is getting warmer Ikaia throws in the towel for the winter season fashion and moves to spring. He starts to wear a lot more T-shirts and Aquatic themed pants. He is usually caught wearing a Light Blue T-shirt with an Oshawott Scalchop picture slapped right in the chest. His pants are primarily a baby blue color with a creamy white, complimenting, design of a Milotic located on the left pant leg extending from the mid-thigh to the mid shin.

-:-Summer-:-

Summer is here and that means that spring fashion is so last season! Usually during the summer you will always only catch Ikaia wearing nothing but shorts, tank tops, and flip flops. He usually wears colorful swim trunks that are normally lime green, white, neon orange, light blue and/or dark blue. Most of the time he is wearing white and green (the green color of the swim trunks starts at the bottom and stretch upward resembling plant life.) swim trunks with a white tank top on. The tank top has a picture of a Vaporeon playing With a Leafeon. His flip flops are usually lime green and baby blue. Solid colors no designs.

-:-Fall-:-

When fall comes around Ikaia gets more comfortable and cozy when it comes to his attire. He will wear dark blue, light blue and white colored long sleeve crew neck shirts. His outfits for the fall tend to be very limited as he prepares himself for the New Year. You will usually see him wearing a Dark blue with a light blue outline of Squirtle, Totodile and Mudkip playing with one another. He wears either solid white jeans or dark blue jeans however.


General Appearance: Ikaia is an Island boy pretty much. His skin is in a perma-tan because he constantly stays out all day in the sun training and swimming with Pokémon. He is roughly around 5’8” or 5’9” and has a somewhat broad shoulder width. His physique is slightly muscular but nothing entirely major. He will always have some form of a smile on his face no matter how big or how small his face resembles peace and tranquility. He walks as if he is always in water. His body sways from left to right with every step he takes. It is almost like his body is out of the water but his mind isn’t. He appears to be somewhat in shape and he wears his main Pokéball around his neck as a necklace to show how strong of a connection he has with his Pokémon. He has a scar on his right ear from his Remoraid. If you were to look at Ikaia and not know who he is, you would think he is a good for nothing, rebellious teenager when in fact he is the exact opposite and it always surprises people whenever they find that out.

Hometown:An Island Off The Coast Of South Godai (Technically Born and Partially raised in Aurmouth City)

Personality:Ikaia is a very generous, and a considerate individual. He does whatever he can to help whoever needs it. Sometimes (most of the time) he goes out of his way to help those in need because that’s just who he is, he believes that having the ability to help people is a gift in itself. He enjoys doing a lot of swimming. Keeping him out of the water is nearly impossible. It is his element and keeping him away from his element is inhumane. The reason he loves swimming so much is because in the water he feels as if he is flying without having to actually fly. How the water feels against his skin makes it hard for him to want to leave. It is almost like the water puts a spell on him whenever he swims; a mesmerizing, hypnotic spell. He enjoys talking to people, training and making new friends. However he dislikes people who abuse Pokémon and always eat fast food oddly enough. Ikaia likes to eat healthy or at least likes to eat anything that’s not extremely greasy.

Aside from all of that however Ikaia’s is probably ONE of the nicest people you will ever meet. He tries his hardest to be respectful if his buttons aren’t pushed to the extreme. He will forever have a soft spot for water type Pokémon because that is pretty much all he has ever grown up with. They saved him, abused him, but at the end of the day water type Pokémon are Ikaia’s friends because he respects them and Pokémon as a whole enough for them to respect him back, and he is also the same way with people. It takes a lot to get Ikaia mad. Of course abusing Pokémon and bullying people would get him going whether it is Pokémon on Pokémon crime, person on person crime or Pokémon on person crime and vice verse. When I say he is all for equal opportunity, I literally mean it.

Overall there isn’t much too really “grind his gears”. He is extremely forgiving and learns how not to hold on to things and to let them go. How his mind thinks is he believes that no one has the right to judge anyone because we are all individual human beings. We have our opinions but we are never in any position to judge anyone. He tries his hardest to be a peacekeeper because seeing people happy always makes Ikaia’s heart feel extremely warm. When he knows that everyone is happy it doesn’t worry him as much as when he thinks that someone might have a problem because then he gets extremely concerned and tries his hardest to help no matter if he fails or wins, he will do all he can till he can’t do no more whether it be for family, friends, and Pokémon. Everyone deserves a second chance, and everyone deserves not to be judged. He believes in equality for all things Pokémon and people alike.

History:
/:/Rebirth—Childhood--Awakening\:\

Growing up in Aurmouth City wasn’t the best fit for young Ikaia and his Family. His Parent’s had separated while he was a mere toddler. His mother, Annabelle, moved to a small island to get away from everytlooked after him and did almost everything she possibly could for him. It was them against the world and Ikaia sure did love his mother. She had been a Pokémon Trainer growing up and she teaches him a thing or two about Pokémon battles, gym battles, trainer battles, etc. She would let him play with some of her Pokémon friends she has kept close connections with over the years. Her reasons for all of this is to teach Ikaia how to be a great Pokémon trainer and pretty soon he started to get the hang of it all day in and day out. On a regular day their training sessions normally lasted 6-8 hours like a regular school day and it would be straight training breaks and studying all the way through for several weeks. Normally on Ikaia’s days off he would go and swim in the ocean since he and his mother lived on a small island in a small nameless village located off the coast of South Godai. Every time he swam he explored a new area in the water he hadn’t been to before. He picked up this habit the moment he turned 8. And since then water and its Pokémon have been all he could think about. The Many Mysteries of The Ocean.

By the time Ikaia was ten his mother started being a little bit sterner with him when it came to Pokémon battles. Every time he messed up she would immediately tell him to, “do it again, and this time focus.” Every time he messed up those words poured out of her mouth like the water type move scold. The harder Ikaia’s mom was on him, the harder Ikaia was on himself. He wanted his mother and father both to be proud of him but at the time it was like everything he did in his mothers eyes was wrong and it discouraged him for quite some time until he had finally explained to her how he felt. Since then their relationship has been extremely strong and they are always doing and trying new things together. There was a point amongst all of Ikaia’s childhood where his mother asked if he was ready to start off his journey as a Pokémon trainer. However, out of all the times that she had asked he had politely rejected and declined all of her offers. He felt as if he wasn’t ready to be a part of the world of trainers and there was too much to learn about Pokémon and training a like to start off a journey at such a young age. So he had stated to her that he was going to wait until the time was right for him to start his journey. Respecting his decision she had told him that she would help him train more up until the time he was good and ready to start his journey. Although the experience would be challenging it’ll be all worth it in the end.

One day when Ikaia was going for a swim he decided to see how far down he could go before he needed air. Swimming down to the beyond waters he had witnessed an underwater doppelganger of Las Vegas. A beautiful array of Chinchou and Lanturn were putting on a little light show for their Pokémon friends. The light show had amused young Ikaia so much he had began to swim toward them with no sense of caution in his mind at all. When the Pokémon had noticed him they had gotten startled and began swimming away while a few of the Lanturn and Chinchou stayed to protect their friends. Ikaia noticed what he had done and tried to explain to the Pokémon he meant no harm but with no luck he couldn’t speak underwater. One of the Chinchou began charging an attack as Ikaia frantically tried his hardest to high tail it out of there. The very moment the Chinchou released a water pulse within an instant a Pokémon had came to Ikaia’s head and dragged him out of the way of the attack. As the chase commenced Ikaia started to run out of air and tried swimming to the surface but with little to no luck he was still being dragged by the Remoraid who was being chased by the angry Chinchou and Lanturn.

The Remoraid had then came to the island that Ikaia lived on and tried his hardest to get him to shore before the Pokémon got to him, however he was too late. The Chinchou had struck the Remoraid and Ikaia with a water pulse combo attack blasting them to and shore knocking Ikaia unconscious. Remoraid tried to fight off the Pokémon shooting water guns at them every which way trying to scare them away with little to no luck. Ikaia’s mom had come to the rescue when she had noticed that Ikaia was gone longer than usual. She saw that he was on the floor unconscious as a Remoraid was exhaustingly fighting the Chinchou who seemed to have been not breaking a sweat from the Pokémon’s attempts at trying to save Ikaia. Ikaia’s mom had sent out one of her Pokémon to help aid the Remoraid and scare off the angry Pokémon. Throwing her Pokéball, out came a Quagsire and told it to use mud bomb on the Chinchou. The Pokémon smiled, opened its mouth, and released a barrage of mud balls that hit the Chinchou causing them to scatter and scurry away. Annabelle had come running to her son’s aid the moment the Chinchou had began to run away. The Remoraid was looking at Ikaia from a far. On its face it looked confused, scared, and worried and wanted to make sure that the boy he had save was alive, safe and well. Annabelle noticed that the Remoraid was still there as she began to approach it. Quagsire was hesitant of the Pokémon so it put on a mean face to let it know that if it tried anything he would be ready. Annabelle patted Quagsire’s head letting the Pokémon know that everything was alright. She had informed the Remoraid that her son as exhausted and she is extremely grateful to it for saving her precious boy. She had informed Remoraid that if he came tomorrow morning he could see Ikaia again and they could play together. Remoraid seemed to really like that idea because it jumped out of the water and let out a very excited cry.

Every day since then Ikaia and Remoraid have been thick as thieves. They have become such close friends in such a short amount of time you would almost think it to be impossible for anyone to be so close to anyone of anything. The Chinchou attack had had happened 3 years back when Ikaia was 13 years of age and since then him and Remoraid have been the best of friends. The usual training sessions that would happen between Ikaia and his mother also now included Remoraid since Remoraid is now Ikaia’s first ever Pokémon. They would train nearly every day against Annabelle and her Quagsire. The more they trained the more in sync Ikaia and Remoraid had become which sparked Annabelle’s attention; her little birdie was ready to leave the nest.

That made Ikaia’s mother tear up and start crying. Seeing his mom cry, made Ikaia cry to. They hugged each other as she explained to him all the dangers of the Pokémon world and why building bonds (relationships, friendships, etc.) was important. Once she had finished explaining how Ikaia’s should approach the world she headed to their house and came back with several items. A blue and white bag, several Pokéballs, a Pokédex and a special beach theme journal with a silver book mark ribbon attached to it seashell book covers and treasure map paper type for the paper inside the book. She had informed her son that in that book is a quote she had wrote a while back when she started her journey. She told him to go to the back of the journal and read it when he boarded the boat headed to South Godai. Taking Ikaia and Remoraid to the Ship Port, Ikaia put Remoraid (which he had now nicknamed Atlantic) into his brand new Pokéball and waived farewell to his mother as today as the day where he started his very first Pokémon journey. The moment that the boat had set sail and Ikaia finished waiving to his mother he found a seat on the deck and looked at the water. The sun was setting and by the time they get to South Godai it would be morning but the view he witnessed was astonishing. A blanket of champagne and Clementine cascaded the sky in a gorgeous array that complimented the sun’s rays. He had sent Atlantic out of his Pokéball so he too could witness the beautiful sight. As he was seated he had opened the notebook to the back and saw his mother’s handwriting and began to read what she had written. “If there is ever one thing that I learned from life it would be to count your blessings. Never let anyone tell you that you can’t do anything because you can do anything. Your mind is only as strong as you want it to be. Your imagination has no boundaries or limits; you are your own barrier. How can you get past yourself? By becoming a better you.”

Heya Jaba! Or welcome back Airic? Forgive me if I'm wrong and if I read the cbox incorrectly. Anyways -

This doesn't look quite completed as the "Pokedex" has yet to be completed as well as "General Appearance" and a few miscellaneous things. I would highly recommend the following:

  • Please review "Common Application Mistakes" whenever you are fully completed.
  • Please take a look at "Accepted Characters" to see what you may or may not be missing. As well as to ignite any other inspirations for your characters.
  • Take a look once more at the "Character Application Template" and scroll up to see two wonderful examples that tell you how to fill out the Pokedex!
  • Please check out "Godai Starting List" located in "Resources" to see what Pokemon you may start out with.
Because of that, I will give you 2 Days from my post for you to complete it before I move it into "Incomplete Characters".

But take your time; no rush! Even if it does get moved before you complete it, simply post a reply when you're done so it'll notify us and we can get crackin'. Good luck! ♥

Alrighty Jaba! Let’s get down to business. There’s just a bit to change but with your lovely attitude I’m sure you’ll get this down in no time! I’m on a time crunch so I’ll keep this as short as possible -

First, for Kai’s ”Height” and “Weight” please convert them to, respectively, feet and pounds.

For his ”Hair [...]” and ”Eyes” please check out ”Accepted Characters” to get a small idea about what we look for or how much more detail to add for those two categories. (i.e - length, size, style, etc) Kind of what you started to put down for his General Appearance.

And speaking of that, for his ”General Appearance”, it’s not a repetition of the categories above, but rather what else we can know about Kai. Such as the way he walks, what other details about his body stands out, what people’s first impressions of him are, and/or if he even leaves an impression in the first place.

Then, for his ”Hometown”, unfortunately he must live in any of the specified areas listed in Godai. So sadly you can not have him live off “an island off the coat”.

However, let’s strictly zoom into his ”Personality” -

You’ve hit the minimum which is just grand, however I will be expecting much much more! What else can we know about Kai? Remember to constantly ask the “why”s and the “how”s. How is he a generous and considerate individual? How does this make him feel when he does these good deeds to who needs it? How does he gauge if a person is in distress? What does he see, how does he feel? Why is it only “sometimes” that he goes out of his way to do these things? What is the significance of putting “most of the time” in parenthesis - elaborate on this. When does he /not/ go out of his way to do something? Why? What will he do instead? Why does he love swimming so much? How does it make him feel? For example, I love swimming because I love how it feel as if the ripples of water hit my muscles as I glide through the water akin to almost flying in buoyancy. What other times does he feel in his element? What are his morals? Beliefs? Views on himself, pokemonkind, mankind, so on and so forth? What are his strengths and weaknesses and how does he affect him on a psychological basis? Why does he dislike abusive people? How does it make him feel? Why does he like to eat healthy? How is he the nicest people if he only helps others “most of the time”? What would prevent him from helping others? What angers him? What makes him feel other emotions? What is an example of when his buttons are pushed to the extreme? How does he lash out? Will he lash out? How does he deal with depression or cope with other people who also feel depression? Those are just examples of course, but notice the amount of questions that stem off of everything else.

Because the ”Personality” is lacking (which is totally fine!) and your ”History” is so wonderfully detailed, there’s not much I can grasp on to, or see that compliments each others, so for now, let's focus on adding more to his Personality and stop there before we move on.

You know the drill by now! Just post a reply when any changes have been made and we’ll continue onwards. You got this! ♥

I've looked over Bones' points and I think you've done pretty much everything he's said.

Here's approval 1/2 ^^

One thing I will suggest, while we wait for 2/2 is to maybe split up your Personality section rather than have one huge paragraph.

Hm, I'm okay with the edits.

However, I'm still not too keen on another island off the South, but I'm sure if John has anything to say about it, he'll tell us.

But it's aite! Two last things to correct and it's in your "Pokedex" so I'll just list them out:

  • Recheck your % stats calculation and change the distribution accordingly. Hint: Check your math for Sp. Def.
  • Take out the little explanation for Sniper ability.
That's it. You know the drill. ♥
