APPEARANCE
Description: It's not hard to spot Radek in a room, standing at a height of 6'4". He was very gangly looking as a youth. Because he got tired of people teasing and looking like a girafarig, he began working out shortly before turning sixteen. Now, a year later, at 185lbs, he is in great shape and modeling and acting in small roles part-time. He has blonde hair kept in shaggy layers, and golden eyes that remind people of some pokemon's eyes. He has a very nice smile of straight, white teeth. There used to be a bit of a gap between his teeth until his wisdom teeth grew in, another feature that earned him some teasing. He wears a variety of clothing, but most of it is lighter in color. He likes bright colors, and name brand clothing and shoes. He looks very good in black, which he does wear on occasion, just not as often as white! He has large hands and feet, in keeping with the rest of his large frame. He has a strong jawline and features. He is modest despite his physique or physical appearance.
PERSONALITY
Personality: Radek is generally an all around nice guy. Despite being an only child, he is very generous and not selfish in the least. He loves being able to help out others with their problems. He often uses phrases like 'I can take care of you' when someone needs his aid or if he thinks there's something he can do to help. He despises bullies and cruelty to people or pokemon. He loves pokemon, and always has. His favorite growing up was always growlithe, and he loves the fire and dragon types. He treats his pokemon very well, but believes in nutrition and keeping in good shape for them as much as himself. At one point he thought it might be nice to be a nutritionist for pokemon or people. He thinks everyone should be conscientious of their health, weight and well-being. It is part of why he studied under a personal trainer and decided to become one himself. Now that he is a trainer, there isn't much time for his other activities, yet he does try and make some time--especially when he needs the extra dots.
Radek eats like a rapidash. No one knows for sure where it all goes. He spends about an hour a day minimum working out even if he is a very active individual all day. He also tries to eat healthy, and wants the same for his pokemon. He is very nerdy in a sense. He loves documentaries, math, and knowing the answers to questions--no matter what kinds. Is being in a coma like a big dream? Which is the fastest pokemon? How long can the average human hold their breath for? It doesn't matter the question, if he thinks of it, he researches the answer. He has a habit of being too giving. People often try to take advantage of this fact, seeing just how much they can get him to do for them. He really doesn't appreciate it, but never really knows when he's being too giving. He is modest, and not used to being seen in the way models and actors are often seen. If he knew that he was being looked at solely for appearance, he would probably be unhappy. He genuinely wants people to like him for him. As a genuine, honest individual--almost to a fault, which can sometimes get him into trouble--he likes the same from others.
Radek often tries too hard, and burns himself out trying to do everything at once. He's always on the go, doing something. He does dream big, but often it can be a little too big. He tries to take on too much, do too much, and ends up either having no time for the people and things he wants to do, or disappointed. Often times he hasn't got the time to get around to staying in contact with friends, and then feels immensely bad about it. He tends to apologize a lot to people, even when it isn't really necessary. When it comes to the opposite sex, Radek is quite a gentleman. He is the sort to open doors, and pull out chairs. He likes doting on the girls he dates, yet he is very particular when it comes to whom he would enter a relationship with. Looks are only of moderate importance to him. Personality, common interests and being healthy are important to him. Radek takes care of his mom as best he can, when he can. He is definitely a caretaker type.
Radek loves anything active. His favorite sport is basketball, which his height really lends him aid in. He loves stunt biking, rollerblading, rock climbing and hiking. He also is a sucker for fishing. He loves nature, and loves music. He will often sit by the side of the water, fishing, and listening to music. It is something his father used to do with him before he passed away. He also enjoys spending time with friends. He loves coffee, and isn't quite awake in the morning without one!

Ambitions: Radek loves his modeling and acting career, but people don't seem to take him as seriously as he likes. He really would love to be one of those people recognized for another kind of skill: like training pokemon. He wants to travel to all the regions and earn all the badges and defeat the Elite Four. He doesn't know what he wants past this. It's a big enough goal as is! That and he loves nice cars, and wants his own one day! Better than the bike and roller blades, even though he likes doing both.

HISTORY
History: Radek's life on the Sevii Islands was fairly easygoing. He was a happy-go-lucky child for the most part. His mother and father grew their own produce and kept miltank and flaffy, 'living off the land' as it was. They had a couple of neighbors who worked for them, and things were pleasant. There were no gyms on the island, but there were still pokemon. Radek spent most of his time working with his parents, and didn't have time for a pokemon of his own growing up. He was happy tending the ones they used to get milk and wool. Trainers came from the Island, but it wasn't as imperative to be a trainer, breeder or coordinator there. They kept to themselves, and Radek loved spending time fishing, and being active, when he wasn't helping on the farm.
When he entered into school, he had some problems with being bullied because even at five, he was tall for his age. It only got worse as he grew older, and by the time he was a teen he was all arms, legs, big feet and hands. To make matters worse, his father got very sick and passed away when Radek was eight. He took up a lot of slack and his mother hired on another man to help out. Radek felt very protective of his mom and did everything he could to help. He missed his father, who used to take him fishing with him. He never lost his love of fishing, thanks to this.
Tired of being teased or invisible, Radek started taking working out seriously by the time he was fifteen and ended up bulking up rather quickly. He couldn't merely just be weight-height or toned. He actually needed muscle to look like he had some weight on him. No matter how much he ate, that wasn't possible. Yet once he finally achieved his goal of bulking up, he found that he was being asked if he wanted to do modeling and acting, and so decided to do that when he wasn't helping out his mom on the farm. It was through this that the idea of becoming a trainer became more appealing. Everyone in the modeling and acting industry seemed to want to hire him for his new appearance, but didn't take him very seriously. He was quite professional about it, but it wasn't what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.
The farm was doing exceedingly well, and Radek decided that with the two new people working there, and it pulling in a very good income, it was time to ask his mom if she didn't mind him seeing some more of the world. He wanted to become a trainer, and meet other people and try new things. He told her he would still visit, and although she was reluctant to have him go, she agreed. Knowing he had always loved growlithe and fire pokemon growing up, she had a breeder from Kanto who was an old friend bring Radek a surprise for his seventeenth birthday, and the day he planned to head out after. It was a growlithe, just hatched not even a week before. Radek named him Akatora, and was going to set out with simply the growlithe. The breeder had something else on him, though. Seeing that Radek treated his new companion with enthusiasm and kindly, and speaking to his mother about how he took care of injured pokemon when he came across them, the breeder asked if he wanted to take on a pidgey that had been attacked by some other pokemon and whose wing had been broken. He would not be able to battle with it until the wing healed, but it was a clean break and would heal perfectly. Radek accepted, and ended up with Skarlath, his second pokemon. Now he is eager to start out on his journey to meet new people, and go new places, as a trainer!
