Trainer

Name: Adrian Lyre
Age: 17
Height: 5’1"
Gender: Male
Region: Hoenn
Hometown: Lilycove City

Adrian was born in Lilycove City and grew up there as an only child. He lived there with his mother, Edith, who had moved to the city to pursue her interest in Pokemon contests. As a young boy, he had no choice but to tag along to these pageants.
Some good did come out of them, though, in the form of a Kirlia. Adrian's mother had acquired the Pokemon through trade, convinced that he would be her next star. But the Kirlia proved uninterested in competition and usually waited backstage with Adrian. In these times of boredom, the two became very close and the Kirlia eventually became bold enough to begin communicating mentally with the trainer-to-be. He called himself Ferris and Edith, recognizing the bond, released Ferris to her son. That was how Adrian got his first Pokemon.
Adrian continued to help his mother and attended school in his hometown until he was 13 years old. He didn't want to leave home, but he also did not want to follow in his mother's footsteps as a Pokemon contest enthusiast. With Ferris' guidance, he managed to convince her that his learning would be much more effective if he was allowed to travel across Hoenn and actively participate in his education. He would tour around the world, getting first hand experience with Pokemon and life in general. Though Edith understood her son's desire for a change, it is worth noting that her parting gift was a shiny Dratini.
Over the course of the next few years, Adrian developed into a knowledgeable but wary young trainer. He was never able to make or keep many of his friends, but did succeed in assembling a team of Pokemon to accompany him. It was a slow process, but Adrian firmly believed in being a friend to his Pokemon. A goal which, for the most part, worked.

Team

Name: Ferris
Species: Gardevoir
Gender: Male
Move Set: Wish, Facade, Psychic, Energy Ball
Ferris' original trainer was Adrian's mother, Edith. He was supposed to be a pageant star, but this Gardevoir, then a Kirlia, wanted nothing to do with it. Adrian befriended the Pokemon and discovered that he was quite intelligent. They quickly became friends and, when Adrian declared himself a Pokemon trainer, Ferris was the first one to join his team. Adrian tries to avoid favoritism among his party members, but, really, they have matching glasses. Ferris is fluent in the human language, speaking to them through thoughts. He can be somewhat arrogant or selfish about this at times, however, and will not communicate with just anyone.

Name: Isis
Species: Dragonair
Gender: Male
Move Set: Twister, Dragon Pulse, Waterfall, Thunder
Adrian's second Pokemon: a shiny Dragonair. He was given to Adrian as a Dratini. Because of the young teenager's naievety, he immediately assumed the small, rose-colored serpent was female. This irritated Isis to no end and, so, he tested himself to learn human tongue. It took a very long time, but he was eventually able to comprehend and repeat the language. The dainty, song-like quality of his voice was a disappointment, but it would have to do. His first order of business was to correct his mistaken trainer properly. After this breakthrough, Isis became increasingly vain and lazy. It is worth noting that this Dragonair refuses to evolve on the basis that "a Dragonite is nowhere near as elegant and beautiful as a Dragonair."

Name: Erk
Species: Sableye
Gender: Male
Move Set: Shadow Ball, Shadow Claw, Toxic, Dig
Erk came to be on the team in a rather unconventional way. Adrian and his party of two had gone for a brief stay in Dewford town before moving on to the next major hub. Without much to do on such a small island, he decided to go exploring in the caves just north of town. He was observing a colony of Zubat when a lone Sableye snuck up behind him. Adrian had never been a huge fan of ghost types and those huge, gem-like eyes just gave him the shivers... But try as he might, he was never able to convince Erk to leave him alone. The Sableye followed him onto the boat and all over creation. For a while, Adrian refused to catch the Pokemon, but it became apparent that Erk was not leaving. So one day, without fuss or fight, Adrian gave up and caught him. Note that Erk has very simple speech capabilities.

Name: Norton
Species: Omanyte
Gender: Male
Move Set: Brine, Toxic, Frustration, Rain Dance
Norton is a friendly-looking cephalopod Adrian found while studying sea life off the coast of Rustboro. (Possibly an escapee of the Devon Corporation's fossil reanimation laboratories.) As a wild Omanyte, Norton displayed impressive tactical maneouvers, nearly escaping capture more than once. However, being that Norton was physically small and nowhere near as powerful as the rest of Adrian's team, he was eventually coerced into a Pokeball. Little does Adrian know that Norton is the true genius of the party. Each time a battle rolls around, the little Omanyte devises master plans that could put the elite to shame... However, no one can understand a WORD of Norton's ancient Pokemon speak! No one except for Ferris, but he's not talking...

Name: Fifer
Species: Noctowl
Gender: Female
Move Set: Protect, Take Down, Captivate, Air Slash
It was broad daylight when Adrian happened upon Fifer, just on the outskirts of Fortree City. He was intrigued by the odd bird and couldn't resist approaching her. She seemed interested in return, letting Adrian get close enough to stroke her feathers- if he hadn't been too afraid to try it. Then, suddenly, she launched into battle. The Noctowl was surprisingly easy to capture; she was too busy showing off and playing around to really notice or care. Fifer is a quirky bird, rarely taking anything seriously. And, yet, through what can only be described as sheer luck, she is often proclaimed the victor of battles. She's friendly and curious; generally easy to handle. Adrian is convinced that she a descendant of Psyduck.

Name: Quin
Species: Quilava
Gender: Male
Move Set: Lava Plume, Will-O-Wisp, Substitute, Fire Blast
Quin is a far cry from your average, aggressive Quilava. He's just about the sweetest Pokemon in the world and Adrian absolutely adores him... But, among the rest of the team, he's actually a bit of an outcast. He's tried to befriend Norton, who he percieves as a potental partner in being ignored, but even Quin can't understand the Omanyte, try as he might. Ferris occasionally offers advice on being more energetic, but Quin is too shy. He tries to avoid breathing Isis' air, as the Dragonair is far too grand for his meager presence. Erk, quite frankly, is frightening and interested in very little except Adrian and gems. And Fifer... well, her attention span is just too short! It's a frustrating life, but curling up warmly in his trainer's lap is what makes it all worth it.
