Name: Leonhardt Evans Nickname: Leon Gender: Male Height: 5'11" Weight: 167lbs Age: 24 Birthday: July 23 Home Town: Olivine City, Johto (actually, just above Olivine in the forest by the Miltank farm.) Orientation: Straight (but won't judge others for their preferences) Likes: Swimming, having fun, playing with pokemon, fishing, working with pokemon to get stronger, and eating all kinds of food. Dislikes: Small spaces, poorly cooked food, people that mistreat their pokemon and being stuck doing nothing. Fears: dying, being trapped in a small space (claustrophobia), and caves. Goals/Dreams: Leon wants to be the best trainer, but also would like to be some kind of care taker or groomer. Skills: Leo swims very well, has very good endurance and can hold his breath for an above average amount of time under water. He seems to have a way with pokemon, especially when playing with them. After having grown up amongst so many of them, he's gotten a feel for understanding their actions in a way. Status: Trainer Favorite Types: Water, Dragon, Electric Least Favorite Types: He doesn't really have a least favorite type. Personality: Passionate about working with pokemon, he is a very hard worker. Sometimes, when responsibility is laid heavily on him, he could get lazy and slack off. He can be stubborn and hard headed at times, especially when he is all fired up to do something. This sometimes leads to him ending up disappointed some how, or stuck. When it comes to his pokemon, he will do anything for them, like they would for him. He tends to act like a goofball when playing around with his pokemon. In battle, he gets serious and fired up. Leon is quite confident of his abilities. He also is a rather sociable person, and is generally a happy person despite his past. In this way, he is quite optimistic. History: Leonhardt was born a healthy child with no abnormalities. Except for the fact that his mother passed away while bringing him into this world. His father was distraught over the loss of his wife, and often found it difficult to care for Leonhardt. The italian man left his son with neighbors quite often, who happened to be breeders (and his grandparents on his mother's side). One day, Leon's father didn't come back from work, leaving him with the kind neighbors that he had come to call his mom and dad. From a young age, Leon knew not to expect his father to return. Instead, since he had been pretty much raised by the neighbors, he ended up thinking of them as his parents instead. Their own children had grown up and left on their adventures, so they were happy for the company of the young and curious Leonhardt. As Leon grew older, he was able to help more and more with his foster parent's breeding. He usually was charged with the duty of feeding them and cleaning them. He took a liking to grooming the Pokemon and finding their favorite spot to be patted. Unfortunately, the daycare had eventually become too much for his parents to handle, so they had stopped being breeders. Leon took on a job at a beach nearby, becoming a part time life guard and taking up any job he can to help out his foster parents. Occasionally, he'd be able to groom some pokemon for a bit of pocket cash here and there. Although he had taken care of pokemon before, even helping some injured, young wild pokemon before, he never had the chance to have a pokemon of his own. Finally, when he had become an adult, his foster parents insisted that he go and start his pokemon journey. They had found a way to keep themselves busy and to keep the household running without Leon, so Leonhardt didn't feel bad about leaving to get a starter. Extra: Leon is left handed. He is also a masochist. And a Romance-phile

Journey Journal
Leon started his journey in the late summer, early fall. He gained his Starter Pokemon, a Totodile, from Professor Elm. He named his partner Kai, going for a celebratory swim before scheming about his future team. Though Kai was under the impression that he was the only pokemon Leon would ever need, he went along with Leon to the Sinnoh Region, where they searched for a Shinx. During this first search, Kai gained lots of battle experience. Eventually, a Shinx appeared, and Leon captured the spunky kitten, naming her Tesla. Now that he had his electric pokemon to combat Falkner, Leon left Sinnoh and found himself at a fair. Leon spent a lot of time at the fair, eating food with Kai and going on rides. He left to bring Professor Rowan in the Sinnoh region a candy bar, receiving a Treecko in return, who happened to be shiny. She was named Autumn for her fall colored skin. By now, Leon had quite a team developing, having found a feral Eevee at the fair, and receiving a mudkip from an unknown sender. Kai had evolved into Croconaw rather quickly. Autumn led Leon further into Sinnoh before he could leave. She brought him to Eterna Forest, to look for something she seemed to have lost or needed. Along the way, a strange gastly had appeared to invite him to a ball for halloween. Leon though nothing of it, asking it to wait. Even after finding Autumn's Energy Ball and capturing a mischievous Misdreavus, the gastly was still made to wait as Leon finally left the Sinnoh Region, returning to Johto. Leon took almost no time to defeat Falkner with Tesla's Thunder. The dark haired male didn't waste any time getting to Azalea to defeat Bugsy with the same tactic of using Thunder. Tesla evolved into a Luxio shortly after, and Leon finally agreed to go to the ball.
Leon met a girl named Ajicka at the ball, exchanging contact information and even trading his Misdreavus for her Noibat, which he named Nova. His mudkip evolved into Marshtomp, and Leon named him Cooper. For a while, Leon chatted with others before the party turned sour. They were trapped in this mansion on an island during a hurricane. And then, to make matters worse, some 'thieves' struck out, stealing a pokemon from every trainer. Leon was devastated to find that Kai had been taken from him. His own starter! He was sent off to the attic with a group of others. This is where he met an obnoxious blonde girl, a strange and useless guy that kept to himself, a scrawny guy called Marx, a girl named Shenaiya, and a young boy named Huey. A banging noise caught Leon's attention, and nova helped to push the little attic window open a bit, letting in a badly injured Dragonair, who Leon named Eyvindr and promised to take care of him as soon as possible. Together, the group battled and defeated a Gengar, and soon after, the floor collapsed. Leon protected Tesla by curling his body around her as he fell. Shattered pieces of wood stuck into him, particularly a large chunk that had embedded itself into his right upper arm. An oddly colored Malamar then joined Leon's team, helping him tend to his wound. Kraken was the name given to the Malamar. Leon checked on the status of some of the others that were in his group, sticking by Huey. Soon, they were dragged into a gruesome battle with zombies. It was revealed that the stolen pokemon appeared to be zombified. Some of the trainers were idiots, using highly destructive moves that took out a lot of fellow team mates, and gave everyone in the room tinnitus. It eve caused the ballroom some damage! Luckily, Nova was holding up really well for her first battle ever. Leon was struck with despondency once zombie Kai made his appearance. He felt like a piece of him was torn from his body, and he'd never get it back. Huey tried to cheer him up, and Leon snapped out of it to protect the boy from more shattering glass, thanks to another idiot trainer. After a while, Yet another idiot trainer allowed their pokemon to strike out at a zombie trainer instead of a pokemon. They used a psychic power to lift everyone high up off of the floor squeezing them before dropping them. Leon managed to coordinate with Nova, slowing his and Huey's fall with a gust. Leon fell first, the gust focused on the boy so that he'd be able to catch him. Leon was beaten and hurt, but saved the boy from certain injury. The kid could have died from such a drop. His lifeguard instincts kicked in as he heard a scream for help. Leon carried Huey over to help a blonde girl named Isis dressed as some kind of princess, maybe. And her companion Zero, who was having a heart attack. Leon, enlisting Tesla's help, revived Zero, though his own wound was starting to take it's toll. Isis had a severely injured black dragon pokemon called Ebony, and Leo went to work on taking care of her wounds immediately after Zero. After Ebony was taken care of, Leon felt exhausted, and had to get Isis to help him get his wound wrapped. Nova, lasting the entire battle, knocked out the last zombie pokemon standing, bringing the battle to an end. In the end, it appeared as if the pokemon were possessed by malevolent spirits, rather than zombified. Pokemon were reunited with their trainers! Leon cried happily as Kai jumped into his arm, hugging him tightly.
Leon felt pretty heavy and tired soon after the reunion though, and felt himself slip out of consciousness...
Leon was glad to hear that Isis didn't seem to mind helping him out; she even thanked him again. He offered a half-smile to her. "Ah, no problem. You don't owe me anything. I was just helping out." he told her. He was relieved and shocked as Nova had taken down the last zombie pokemon. "Wh-what? Seriously? WE WON?!?" Leon exclaimed, then looked to his noibat. "Nova, you did it! You sure were great for your first battle! I'm so proud of you!" he told his noibat. The little bat squealed with glee, happy to make her owner so proud of her. She flitted around him before landing on his head. He reached up with his left hand to rub at her chin.
He watched as the zombie trainers had freaked out when they had no more pokemon, and then, he narrowed his eyes as some black stuff eventually left them after the barrier broke. What was this f*ckery going on now? Then suddenly, he tensed up as all the stolen pokemon reappeared, sprawled out on the floor. The trainers seemed to come back to normal, but Leon didn't notice at first. His eyes were too busy scanning the crowd of pokemon for his companion. "Kai..." he breathed, staring at the Croconaw. It was out cold on the floor, and the raven haired male took a few steps towards the pokemon before stopping, hearing the trainers talk. It seemed they were back to normal. After Joy's chansey let out a healing pulse, the male watched with his breath held as the Croconaw woke up.
Kai blinked, then blinked again to test if he was really himself now. He could remember being possessed and forced to fight. "... Leon... " he grumbled, remembering seeing how upset his trainer had looked when he came out. He wanted to run over at that time, but he had no control. And now... The croconaw shifted, finding that he was in control now, and he quickly got up to look for his trainer. He found him in a different place than when he had seen him last, but was still by a young blond boy dressed as a pikachu. "Kai...?" Leon breathed, dropping to his knees. Tears pricked at the corner of his eyes as he saw his buddy looking for him. The gator had stopped not too far away, staring at him as if he had been an illusion. Leon was so happy to see that the gator wasn't torn up like he had been in battle. "Kai! C-Come here, buddy!" Leon called out. The gator grinned and ran over to his trainer, tackle hugging him. The force knocked Leon over, falling on his back. Though it hurt, all he could do was laugh. He had his starter back! Leon cried as he hugged Kai tightly with his left arm. Nova flitted around in the air, not going down with her trainer as he was knocked over. She was happy to see Kai back again, even though she didn't know him that well. She understood that he was very important to Kai. Tesla mewed an excited greeting to her friend as he returned, fur sparking harmlessly in joy. "Kai... I'll never let you get stolen away from me again. I swear it!" Leon told his croconaw, sitting up with the gator in his lap, arm still wrapped around him. "Croco croc!" Kai exclaimed, nuzzing his face against his trainer, tears running from his eyes too. He had been worried that his trainer would be mad that he wasn't strong enough to stop Raphiel, and was happy that that didn't seem to be the case at all.
