Age (approximate in Pokemon's case, i.e. Child, Teen, Adult, etc...): Level 31
Gender: Male
Pokemon: Dragonair
Starting Stage (Pokemon or human): Pokemon
Physical Description if Starting Human: N/A
Some Physical Trait Suggestions for Human Side if Starting as a Pokemon: -Coming Soon-
Personality: Debonair, charming, suave, affable, optimistic, daring; thrill-seeker, witty, sense of humor.
History: Skylar technically had always been a wild dragonair. He had never been captured in a pokeball. However, that wasn't to say he hadn't ever been tamed by a trainer.
A long while back, living as a lone dratini, a girl would come every day to a lake up high in the mountains with a beautiful waterfall. He had never seen a human before, being so young and so isolated. Curious, the playful pokemon came up to the girl and the two had lots of fun together.
She told him stories and he preformed tricks for her, though she seemed to have little interest in becoming a true pokemon trainer, and thought of his powerful attacks as nothing more than impressive entertainment. As a result, it never once occured to Skylar that his elegant stunts, each more spectacular than the last might be used as battle skills. Yet he continued to work hard to improve, if only to impress the child.
The girl brought him gifts such as poketreats and he brought her pretty little stones, shells, and even feathers and apples once he learned how to fly. By that time, Skylar had grown to be a dragonair, strong and proud, self-trained in a manner of speaking through his attempts to impress his friend.
To his delight, the pokemon discovered that the girl seemed to adore the sky and water as much as he did. They went on small adventures together up and down the mountain, and even once to the sea. He taught her how to swim and she loved it; and when she had mastered that, he even managed to get her to learn how to ride on his slim, serpantine body, so they could fly together as well.
When she was feeling down, he'd cheer her up with a small rainbow, or on a rainy day, he might have parted the heavy clouds that rained down on the mountain and allowed her a sunny afternoon instead. The two were wonderful friends, and had each others' complete trust.
One fateful day, however, the girl failed to come. Skylar was devestated. He had just mastered a new technique he had taught himself and had been eager to show the girl. But however long he waited, the girl did not return.
Days passed. Then weeks. the dragonair morph grew agitated. What had happened to her? He had searched in all the places they had ventured together. As long as he had known her, he didn't know of any home or family she could have gone to live with other than him and his mountain. Perhaps she was in danger.
Not too thrilled with the thought of having to attack some fellow pokemon, Skylar made up his mind to set out and find her. He had listened to the girl's explaination of pokemon trainers, and had decided the whole idea was stupid. What pokemon would enjoy travelling with any human in a ball? It was preposterous! Then again, Skylar wondered if he wasn't claustrophobic if it wouldn't have seemed so bad.
Still, if he had to face human trainers and their pokemon, so be it. He was tired of waiting helplessly within his own lonely mountain lake. He had developed into a daring, adventurous young pokemon, and opposed as he was to the concept of battling, Skylar was always up for a challenge. Besides - he couldn't just forget the girl without knowing what became of her.
As reluctant as he was to fight, Skylar found he was much better prepared than he had realized. With all his fancy loops, dives, and tricks, he discovered he could defeat other pokemon quite easily if they were too much of an obstacle to avoid. For the most part he learned to use the clouds as his cover as he travelled by day, and water when he travelled by night, but every now and then a trainer would come across him. He never fled without a fight, and beat each opponent, one after the other.
Eventually, Skylar grew weary in his travels. He was losing hope, which was devastating for a pokemon usually so optimistic. He couldn't go on all by himself, and he felt his strength weakening with every new challenger. Unlike the pokemon with trainers, he had no one to help him; no one to care for his injuries once the fights were over. Without full recovery at the Pokemon Centers, he soon became just as weak as any other wild pokemon, even with his spectacular preformance tricks. Having no one to preform for in so long, Skylar had no motivation to improve his skills, and so they quickly grew boring and dull, even to him.
At last, his hunt took the dragonair to the sea. The girl had always enjoyed the ocean waves and the tides coming in and out, as well as watching the other water pokemon play along the surf. If she were to be found anywhere, it would have been there. After all, she never had seemed to be too fond of large towns or cities. The sea was the perfect getaway from human life. Or so Skylar thought.
After more weeks of fruitless searching, Skylar finally came upon a promising sight - an island, sparsely populated with humans. There were funny white buildings, and ships that came in now and again, but nothing too extravagant. There was a very good chance the girl would have stayed at this island, assuming she had the means to get there. Skylar decided it was worth a try.
Having so little experience with humans, even after the few trainers he had battled along the course of his journey, the dragonair knew not how to be cautious. He was oblivious to the humans down below on that isle, nor their intentions. All he wanted to find was the girl he held so dear. Due to his ignorance and bold nature, the pokemon was soon discovered and captured by the members of CRONUS. Skylar, ever the optimist, gave in without a fight, uncertain of what was going on, but pleased to know they had no pokeballs with which to trap him in.
Strengths: Ability to train himself, high confidence, abundant optimism, carefree attitude, playful good humor, competative spirit, daring explorer, risk-taker
Weaknesses: Has claustrophobia, very naive about the human world, doesn't realize his full potential as a battler, at times a little too optimistic, pride can be his downfall, doesn't think things through
Future Plans for Character or Any Extra Info: I don't know...he seems to have taken a liking to girls, especially serpantine ones. *COUGH*Malice*COUGH* Must have been pretty lonely up on that mountain lake. >_< After all, who in their right mind would flirt with a vicious, poison Arbok? Also, like the naga pokemorph, I was hoping Skylar would develop into a pokemorph without legs, and yet retain his tail as a naga or merperson.

Note to self:
Attacks include Dragon Rage, Twister, Wrap, and Thunder Wave,
but he has also been working on hyper beam and outrage, which he migh learn some day if he ever gets to te level of 65 and/or 56.
EDIT: Attacks are:
dragon rage Hyper beam Twister Ice Beam – (Taught to him by the girl he played with)
Yes, I know some attacks are far above his level, but he was a fast learner and eager to develop new skills, remember? Unlike the games, the Pokemon World doesn't actually have skill levels, so there. XD
