JOSHUA DRAGOMIR
Name: Josh Dragomir
Alias: Josh
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Straight

Region: Unknown
Class: Trainer
Occupation: Travelling Trainer
Rank: N/A

APPEARANCE

Description: Josh is a well built young man, experienced in taking care of the Pokemon his parents had when they were hotshot Trainers, as well as helping with the breeding center they opened. His experience with regularly exercising with them, as well as going to incredibly great lengths in order to retrieve lost or ones in danger has made him tough and well toned, as well as very athletic and agile. At 6'1 and 215lbs, with fair skin and shining brown eyes, on his head rests long blonde hair, with a side bang going to the right. And, of course you can't miss the beard and stache combo.

Clothing-wise, a dark blue bandana rests on his neck, just over a t-shirt of the same color, and a custom black leather jacket with a blue pokeball icon hanging on the right shoulder. With black gloves that are perfect for Pokeball throwing, black splash pants and (also) black boots great for overcoming many types of terrain, Dragomir is ready for a Pokemon adventure any day of the week. Clothing reference if you really need one.

PERSONALITY

Personality: Josh can be headstrong and stubborn at times, but regularly he is a kind sort, generous and always happy to help someone in need. There is almost nothing he won't do for someone in need, especially someone that he cares for. He's also incredibly witty and sarcastic, and often enjoys making others laugh and bringing spirits up. In terms of his Pokemon, he is incredibly caring, and will go to miraculous lengths to ensure their safety, no matter the cost when it comes to his own well being. He has a strong sense of justice, and won't take kindly to any sort of criminal organization that he ends up running into. Josh, of course, is experienced in leadership roles, but can adhere to whatever the situation demands. If needed to take charge, Josh has proven in the past to be a quick thinker, and his intelligence shines bright when the situation demands it. When determined, there is likely no stopping him. During battle, his demeanor varies depends on the situation. During a friendly battle, Josh may tease and joke, but is also compassionate if needed, and is not against stopping a battle if his own Pokemon or if the opponent's Pokemon is badly injured. Against an evil Trainer though... Especially if personally victimized, his battle style may change, as will his behavior. Expect much less mercy in this regard.

Ambitions: Josh's dream was always to become a highly successful Pokemon Trainer, ever since he was a child. Being held back on those dreams has only made his will to do so even stronger, and his aspirations and hopes for himself are high. He hopes to catch and raise a ton of Pokemon, challenge the Elite Four, and of course the Champion. But of course, he also just wants to enjoy the adventure along the way, meet many new friends, and see all sorts of different Pokemon. Becoming the Champion of the Hoenn Region, in his eyes, would be his ultimate redemption for what he failed to do back in his old home.

HISTORY

History: Josh Dragomir was born to Philip and Serena Dragomir, both accomplished hotshot Pokemon Trainers in their hayday. Of course, after retiring, they became Breeders and opened their own Breeding Center to take care of the Pokemon of others, as well as breeding Pokemon and selling Eggs to travelling Trainers to add to their own Pokemon teams. As a child, Josh was heavily involved in the process, and spent his days when not in school just spending time with and taking care of the Pokemon, whether they be the star teams his parents had, or those they were taking care of in the Breeding Center. Due to this, at an early age Josh harbored dreams of becoming a Pokemon Trainer himself. Sadly, when he turned ten, his parents forbade him from going on a Pokemon Journey, explaining the trials and tribulations they had to suffer, as well as being away from home, just to go on said journey, and they wouldn't want to be at fault if he was killed via the dangers a Pokemon Journey brought. Regardless of this, Josh would continue working with the Pokemon, and became more and more involved with their care and even going to heavy lengths in order to keep them safe when trouble came.

Eventually, after graduating from the region's educational system, Josh would be pushed to pursue a post-secondary education to become a Psychologist and make a living for himself. Of course, after his first year of post-secondary, and his first year away from the Pokemon he loved so much, the threat that was slowly overtaking the region would strike a personal tragedy to his family, taking away the families Raichu, who was both his father's partner and a beloved family pet. This would drive Josh to defy his families wishes and head off on a journey whether they liked it or not. He would receive a Torchic which he named Vulcan, from the local professor in the next town over, and would later save a Pichu who was dying in the forest. After nursing it back to health, he would name the Pichu "Lightning" and the Pichu became his closest companion.

During his travels, he would also end up catching both a Furfrou and a Pidgeotto, who would both become members of his team as he fought to stop this menace threatening the region along with all the other trainers within it.

Sadly, it was all for nothing, as the threat became too strong for even the combined efforts of the region's people to counter. With certain doom looming, and Josh's mission failed, his parents would contact him and let him know that they were moving out of the region to escape it, and implored him to take his Pokemon and come with them. Begrudgingly, he would accept, and would leave his life of fighting behind.

Finally, the move to Hoenn would be complete. Finding a place to live in Littleroot Town, known for it's new beginnings, Josh's family was impressed by the potential he showed as a Trainer, and the bravery he showed in going out to fight certain doom with little to no experience. And thus, when they arrived in Littleroot, he was given the blessing to finally undertake the Pokemon Journey that he had wanted all along.

Of course, Josh would never forget his failure. With that burning in his heart, he set out, determined to redeem himself in his eyes, and to become one of the greatest Pokemon Trainers to ever live.

Role play Sample:

Littleroot, huh? Why did they call this town Littleroot? Was it because this was where many a Trainer had begun their journey? A little root hoping to grow into a big tree one day? Josh Dragomir, a rookie Trainer who was still in the process of moving, couldn't help but smile as he thought about it. He had tried so hard to forget the horrors his family had seen and endured in their old home... The threat that had caused the family to move and take shelter in Hoenn after it had gotten so overwhelming, that even Josh agreed, despite being out there fighting it himself, that they all knew the region was doomed.

But all that had changed now. This was a new start. Their misfortune had been a blessing in disguise. Where his family had been adamant about Joshua finding a real job and making money instead of making the same "mistake" his parents claim they had in travelling the world as a Pokemon Trainer before the problem had begun, it emerging had allowed Josh to take up Pokemon of his own, and even if his time with it was short and unfulfilling, it had been just what his family needed to understand that this was what he was born to do.

Sitting on the edge of a cliff overlooking Littleroot, Josh watched as the Machoke loaded items out of the moving truck into their new home... At times, he couldn't help but look over his shoulder, almost like a habitual paranoia, but... He knew that in time it would pass. In Hoenn, being a travelling Trainer was a normal thing, and a safe thing too. Even 10 year olds could do it, for Arceus's sake!

After the things Josh had seen and done at his old home, his parents had promised to allow him to leave home once they had gotten settled and officially begin a Pokemon Journey of his own. He had his Pokemon, and he had a bit of experience under his belt... Nothing could go wrong, right?

Hoenn was the start of a new beginning for him... And as he closed his eyes, took in the warm summer air of Littleroot, and relaxed... He knew it all would begin here. In the town where little roots aspire to become titan sized trees.
