Eye/Hair Color: [ Ultramarine / Black ]
Hero/Heroine Character: [ Cheren ]
Partner: [ Snivy (Megumi) ]
Extra Info: [A clear-cut Pokémon genius from Nintendo's backyard with a hearty disdain for stinky Poison-types. Yuki has owned every Pokemon main and spinoff game in existence, even mastering such obscure games as TCG, Puzzle League, PokéRom, Sega, Fishing, Snap, Poképark, Picross, Dash, Mystery Dungeon, Conquest, and more. He even owns such companion systems as Pikachu, Mini, and Pokewalker, One of the greatest advantages his proximity to Nintendo confers on him is that Yuki has at least access to even those games that never left Japan's borders. His cooking attracts hordes of Pokémon in the wild. He talks to Pokémon in Japanese and to Trainers in accented English and occasionally forgets to switch languages. Though he can certainly educate newer trainers, he prefers helping those who (wish to) know about the complex inner workings of Pokémon. ]

Personality
[ Yuki is polite and quite intelligent, perhaps a little too much so in terms of Pokémon, but such is to be expected from a young Japanese citizen living practically on Nintendo's front yard. He prefers animals to people and sometimes has a hard time opening up. He prefers to make his own way in life; thus, you will rarely if ever find him asking anyone for help, especially about Pokémon. After all, his mother works for the Nintendo Corporation itself! Yuki is more likely found dispensing valuable information to other players, and he is known online as a strong battler and a preemptive event Pokémon distributor. He enjoys cooking and sketching and can frequently be found with a sketchbook in hand. ]

History
[ A native of the bustling metropolitan city of Kyoto--the seat of Nintendo's power and Johto's Ecruteak City's real-life model--Yuki grew up amid the most modern technologies while staying connected to his family's seafaring roots. While his father manages the family's restaurant, his mother works as a game programmer for Nintendo of Japan. By the time he was 4, he could already read and write in Japanese; 2 years later, he would receive his first Pokémon game, FireRed. Yuki played it avidly, and with his mother's help, he too could see the vast similarities between its Johto region and his Kansai region, particularly in Ecruteak City, Kyoto's virtual equivalent. The reality of Pokémon was what drew Yuki in. His parent kept one secret well--unbeknownst to the little boy, his mom was one of the lucky few Nintendo employees designing and beta-testing future Pokémon games. It was then that Yuki first happened upon the notion of virtual reality, though the young boy had no way at the time of recognizing it as more than mere dreams. No matter how much time he spent at the book or at his family's restaurant, Yuki always found time to delve deeper into the world of Pokémon. By the time he reached secondary school, Yuki could identify every Pokémon in existence by English and Japanese name, and if they existed to leave footprints, then he could track them across all of Kyoto. Not surprisingly, his favorite characters in this pocket universe were Max and Cheren, for like him, they wore glasses and were Pokemon experts. Secondary school taught Yuki how to speak fluent English and there, he refined the skills he had learned as a young child.
Virtually, Yuki was making a name for himself, first as an eager (albeit mediocre) battler in the Johto and Hoenn regions, a regional champion in the Sinooh region, and as a top 50s battler in the Unova region. When Pokémon X and Y announced their PokéBank, Yuki used his mother's connections to Nintendo for personal gain, distributing rare and occasionally preemptive event Pokémon to friends and even across Wonder Trade, often announcing his giveaways via large Pokémon groups on Facebook and certain other forums. In this way were his online friends made, but only a few bothered to connect with him further via Game Chat and Facebook. Of these online friends, Yuki holds the closest relationships with Emiko, who first talked to him after receiving one of his event giveaways and seeing his art and who actually met him in a Pikachu bus en route to Tokyo's Pokémon Center; and Noa, who first latched onto him "because you can help me grow much stronger". Yuki would ever have guessed that these and others would accompany him on his greatest journey ever.
Late in 2015, just 2 days before his 18th birthday, Nintendo announced that it would hold a special beta-testing event reserved only for a chosen few who would be invited by company mail to attend. The event was to be held at Nintendo's headquarters in Japan, and travel and living expenses were to be paid for by the company itself. Ecstatic for the event, but lacking any clue as to how he could attend (his mother divulged nothing about this matter), Yuki resumed his gaming activities as before... and then came the day that his mother returned from work bearing a company letter addressed directly to him. However it was that he had gained Nintendo's favor, Yuki had done it--he was now admitted to this new and exclusive event. On the night before the event, Yuki packed a special bento box for lunch, anticipating it to last for just the day. Little did he know that this would be no regular gaming conference... ]

SKETCHBOOK Aka Nintendraw's shameless art promo. xd Anything Pokemon-related that Yuki/Cheren (Ninten) draws will be recorded here, from newest (top) to oldest (bottom). If you like my Pokemon art enough to want to see the rest of my gallery, here it is. Much obliged to you if you look! I also accept Gaia Gold commissions here, but school saps enough of my time that commissions make incredibly slow progress during the academic year...
