Eye Color: Lime green
General Appearance:
A fourteen years old that usually carried himself with air of confidence, an almost perpetual > face. Tetsu looked like most kids of his age if he's fully clothed... but it's usually not like that. The fourteen years old often wears sleeveless vest-slash-parka that usually stays unzipped. Beneath, he usually wear thin A-Shirt. The boy's skin is tanned and slightly scarred from various activity. Exploring, Pokemon observing, training, you name it. The boy done it all, and it's usually to help his aging grandfather who now mostly relegated himself to research and less straining pokemon care.

His aura flares up to his mood, usually just glowing wisplike if he's relaxed, and if he's particularly determined, flaring like a surge of energy. He often describes his aura as "the feeling that earth's lifeblood gives", or at least that was how it felt.
Interview Questions
Tell us a bit about yourself. How would you describe yourself?
Heh, is that a trick question? Well, how I describe myself is it...? Let's begin with "adventurous" I guess. I love challenges. I love finding new things, even things that has been discovered before. I'm a believer of "what's the need of manual in an adventure?" it'll just ruin the surprise! Granted, it doesn't mean I'm completely dumb on that part. I got experience, and I prepared enough of course... when it comes to danger, it's not like I don't have any sense of danger. You can say I just decided to ignore those sirens, heh heh.
Hmmm, what else... I would also describe myself as fun loving. I love fun. Festivals for example, or events... You just need to say that there's SOMETHING going on and I'll go there in a heartbeat! Oh... aaand... a Pokemon in the lab says that I tend to get really heated up when I saw injustice in front of me. They're not wrong. My approach to that is usually fist to the face!
Why are you interested in your chosen Class?
Isn't it obvious already? I'm adventure loving guy! ...Well, that's part of it, but other than that I'm actually thinking to become a ranger in the future. So while trying to be a ranger later down the road, I'll be training as Explorer. Who knows, maybe in the future I'll stay Explorer... but for the meantime I just want to enjoy my time, get stronger together with my Pokemons, uncover a lot of mysteries, and eventually I'll decide to be a ranger or not.
What brings you to Ageos?
Errr, my grandpa is getting older, and I feel like I want to try to be more independent from the family. So I'm here! Grandpa told me to not care about it and just go as I please, but honestly, he's not a honest guy. I think he's secretly lonely, so whatever! I'm here to help and he can't reject me anyway. I told him I'm fine camping out if he don't want me to stay in his lab. He made a complicated expression and told me "NO ONE SAID THAT!" I think it was called... "Tsundere" in Kanto?
What are your best attributes?
My physical strength of course! Pretty sure I'm stronger than most kids of my age! Oh and I'm highly determined. Some said it's more that I'm stubborn though. Eh, well, good and bad are two sides of same coin. I'm also not afraid to try new things! So there's that. Tell me to ride a Tyrantrum? Would do!
What are your worst attributes?
Eeee, this one is a bit hard... I would say... it's not that I'm bad at direction, but I'm often distracted by new things. If I see something new that I'd like to see before anything else, I would abandon what was my current goal to pursue it. It often causes mayhem such as getting lost in some forest for three days or getting chased by some Pokemons. But don't worry, I'm still alive, I'm still fine! It's all part of the adventure!
What was your childhood like?
My childhood eh... I would say it's pretty normal... well, except at some point there was a poaching incident back home. Poaching here is... not harvesting part of Pokemon but more like catching en masse I guess? If I recalled it correctly it was after Tyranitar mating season, where Mama Tyranitars lay eggs. And... these poachers are after the eggs. They think if they ran to our town, it would give them a little bit of time to rest... well, it doesn't work like that. Our town was attacked by Tyranitar then. It was a chaos. The poachers were caught swiftly by Officer Jenny, but the damage was already done. My house caught in collateral damage. My sister got a fracture on her leg that caused her to unable to walk well until now. As for me, I was lucky being able to get out from that situation with minor injury and at most a broken arm. But well... event like that understandably traumatized the young me so that I had a moment where I was scared of Pokemons.
I remembered not getting it what makes other kids so happy that a Pokemon visited their room. If anything to me it was scary. I'm so afraid that they would evolve suddenly and wreak havoc again... it also didn't help my meeting with my now best bud, you see. He was a Riolu who got orphaned by the poachers. He... apparently got attracted by my Aura. He wanted to befriend me because he was unsure what to do. But you know, I was traumatized. I ended up running away from him... It wasn't until a therapy Yamper acting as a bridge for two of us that I ended up appreciating Pokemon again. On that point I felt like... egoism, profit searching without caring about rules like that was the source of all evil. Thus I wanted to be a ranger, like I told you.
How did you get along with family?
I do! I still facechat them quite a lot! My big sister and parents also are going to move here later on. According to my parents I might have a baby sister on the way, isn't that the cutest? Oh and my big brother, he's still travelling around the world. He wanted to be a pokemon champion, but well... he... often got lost, so I'm not sure how he'll fare... considering he probably thought that he gone to Galar but ended up booking a ticket to Alola instead...
What are your hobbies?
I love collecting rocks! Pretty rocks are just amazing, and on top of that there are properties that I feel could be unraveled... where does evolution stones came from? What's the process involved in making them? Just how many magic stones like this available in the wild? Can human use it too? Thoughts like that just made my blood pumping! Oh, speaking of blood pumping, I also like doing muscle training, those are important, yeah! ...I'd like to learn cooking too later on.
How do you feel about romance?
Eeeeh, it's really nice? Fluffy? Cute? But I'm not sure if anyone would like to romance me for that matter. It's not something I want to think at the moment.
What are your short-term and long-term goals?
I want to become a ranger! That's the short term goal I guess.
The long term one is probably "finding a legendary Pokemon and gain its approval"!
If you could be a Pokémon, which one (or which type) would you be? Why?
Duh, I'm a fighting type, I think. Got anything more fitting than that for me?
What do Pokémon mean to you?
They're friends! They're partner! They're also creatures of mystery that we should learn from, while teaching them our side of the world too!
Anything else you'd like to tell us before we let you go?
Mmmm, nah, that's all I think!
