Izzy Sterling

This is the second time I'm typing this, since my computer apparently hates me. Bear with me if it's not beautiful like the first.

Name: Izzy Sterling

Nickname: A nickname for Izzy? That could be interesting... but, no.

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Rank: Trainer

Birthplace: Kanto, Cerulean City

Battle Style: Tries to "feel out" his opponent's stlye/weaknesses, then capitalize; if their weaknesses are too minimal, he'll simply go on a reckless, all out offensive and try to keep them on their heels.

Looks: Dark brown hair that falls about his face, and is just longer than his eyebrows. Green eyes peer out from beneath these bangs, and match the well-stocked backpack that's slung across his shoulders. He wears a black, zip-up hoodie, and brightly coored shirts beneath. He typically wears jeans or grey cargo pants, depending on the weather. When his sleeves are pushed up, attention is often drawn to th scars that criss-cross his left arm, a permanent reminder of his failure at Saffron.

Personality: Keeps to himself, but friendly if approached. Admires strength (of mind or spirit), and hopes to achieve it for himself. Determined, and just above average intelligence (the equivalent of being slightly past the peak of a bell curve, but no more), he doesn't give up on a fight unless his friends or Pokemon will get seriously injured. Loves the night sky, and the sounds of a river. Abosultely hates people who mistreat other (people or Pokemon), but rarely speaks up about it, prefering to avoid unnecessary conflict.

History: An orphan, he had few friends growing up, so he turned his attention to the best for inspiration: in his opinion, that had meant Wattson and Sabrina. After being given his first Pokemon at 13, he even made the trip to Saffron to meet his idol. He was met at the entrance of the Gym by a more experiecnced boy, who had a Sneasel and thought very little of Sabrina. After much ridicule and goading, Izzy finally challenged the boy to a battle. Elekid was quickly defeated, and Sneasel began to assault Izzy. Sabrina managed to rescue Izzy, but the humiliation was too much for him. That day, he made a promise to become stronger, so he could earn the Saffron badge, Sabrina or not, and eventually travel to Hoenn to meet Wattson.
