Name: Tristan Bailsmith
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Description: 5'6" tall and 135 lbs, Tristan is a lightweight. He wears square black glasses, and tends to wear jeans and a shirt, both black. He has dark brown hair which is kept short and spikey, as well as a watch and hiking boots.
Hometown: Though he originally lived in Pewter City, Tristan's parents moved to Pallet town about a year ago.
History: Originally living in Pewter City, Tristan moved to Pallet town very recently. He had a typical childhood, and spent many hours hiking with his father in the mountains nearby. Because of this, Tristan has a particular fondness for Rock and Steel type Pokemon.
Unfortunately, Tristan's father died about a year before he moved to Pallet town, and his death took a toll on Tristan, as he no longer had a male father figure in his life to show him how to grow up. Because of this, Tristan still doesn't have a Pokemon, as he doesn't feel he can protect it from harm well enough. The only Pokemon he really feels comfortable around is the family Pokemon, a Scizor which his father once owned. They will often go for walks together when they feel the loss of his father.
Tristan will be leaving home finally though, as his mother firmly convinced him too, telling him that he would never be able to reach his dreams unless he left home. He wants to be a Pokemon Researcher or a Gyme Leader, but mostly just wants to keep any more people from dying. Saying goodbye to his mother and Scizor, he goes off to begin his journey.
Personality: Though he is a generally friendly and social guy, Tristan does enjoy his alone time as well. He is a very tactical thinker, and enjoys chess and other strategy games. Combined with the amount of reading he does, it makes him a very intelligent person. On the other hand, he doesn't enjoy festivals and major events, as he gets a little bit annoyed by the amount of people and noise. He also dislikes water. He wants to be either a Pokemon Researcher or a Gym Leader when he grows up. As mentioned earlier, he loves Steel and Rock type Pokemon, and has always wanted a Scizor, as his father owns one.
Pokemon Team: None yet.
