[X] My Assistant

[Living Arrow]

Name: Darryn Kellor
Age: 17
Hometown: Celadon City

Appearance: Darryn is visually a classic jock. He’s slightly taller than average and is built strongly but not bulkily. To go with his lightly muscular physique, he has perfect glossy brown hair (around 5 inches long so it curls around his ears) with a reddish sheen styled expertly with three different products every morning. His eyes are a dark brown and contrast spectacularly with his pearly white teeth. :P
His clothes come from a designer closet of items that are hung neatly and in order of colour and warmth for best accessibility. Everything fits him extremely well, showing off his assets and making him look like he just stepped out of a catalogue.

Personality: Darryn may have the looks of a pop star, but the stereotypical image of an airhead is completely wasted on him. He is pretty intelligent yet falls far short of being a genius. Even so, he gets well above average grades at school and is hoping to study for a qualification in pokemon fashion and care.

Biography: Living in Celadon, Darryn was raised in a fairly average family. His father, an accountant, and his mother, owner of a catering business, raised three children in a modest four-bedroom home on the outskirts of town, two streets from the Pokemon Center. All three children had their own rooms but even so, they were inseparable.
Cleo, the oldest, was a budding Watcher who loved nothing more than to spend close on all of her waking hours at the Celadon gym, sketching and playing with the grass-type pokemon that lived there and chatting with the girls that trained under the high domed glass roof. Much to Darryn’s annoyance, however, he was not allowed in the gym unless making a formal challenge so had to accept the theft of his sister for hours at a time. Darryn was very close with his sister – she was the caring, understanding kind of girl who would listen rather than talk and she sympathetic ear was regularly borrowed by Darryn when he had a problem at school or a project that he needed help with. So, it was not implausible for him to develop a certain dislike for grass-type pokemon that manage to pry Cleo away from him.
The youngest of the three, Joey was what most parents would call a little monster. Not only was he as restless as an Aipom, but he was practically as noisy as a Loudred, shouting rather than speaking at any opportunity. Three years Joey’s senior, Darryn felt somewhat distant from Joey at times due to the kid’s immaturity and so often left the younger to his own devices.

When not with his siblings, Darryn usually attended Celadon High where he studied for Pokemon Behaviour, Pokemon Anatomy, Pokemon Nutrition and Fine Art. A peculiar combination but all four subjects were placing him on a straight course for an internship at Celadon’s most popular pokemon salon – Clarke’s.
It was his dream to learn everything he could about pokemon health and fashion so that he could help Co-ordinators and trainers alike in pokemon care in ways that breeders couldn’t dream of. Then he could arrange plans for his own salon that would one day rival Clarke’s and every other pokemon style organisation in the Kanto region.

The day that the Kellor’s decided to move to Furoh came not long after Darryn received his certificates from Celadon High upon graduation. His father’s job called for a relocation to Gigarte where he would be running the accounts for the pollution-control sector after the unfortunate events at Lenoilia.
Darryn had kicked up immediate fuss over this, demanding that he be left behind in Celadon to work at Clarke’s but his parents had insisted on his participation in the move. He didn’t he funding to pay for an apartment in his home city and the internship would not be paying enough for him to afford living away from home. His inevitable fate carried him from Clarke’s and to a town that completely lacked what he desired – lights, fame and fashion.

After months of grievous depression, Darryn’s opportunity to chase after his dream came in the form of spam mail in the morning post. A simple flyer, announcing the latest trainers to embark on their pokemon journeys in the city gave him the best opportunity to leave the organic fruit juice lifestyle he had been forced into and to chase after the glaring lights of his future.
Enlisting his sister and her partner pokemon, a Cherubi she had befriended in the Celadon gym, Darryn set about locating his first pokemon and leaving home. Much to his disappointment, the best his sister could do with her shockingly small amount of battle experience was an overweight Pidgey and a scraggy Caterpie. No matter his disappointment, Darryn decided to make the most of his first pokemon and gathered the accessories together that he needed for his quest, his dream still set firmly in his mind no matter how distant its realization seemed.

Pokemon:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Bravo". Starting Pokemon. Premier Ball. Male. Tangled Feet. Level 53
First Appearance: Gigarte Park
Evolved from during Lenoilia Ruins
Evolved from during Pedagogues and Pugilists at a Particular Pageant in Prominent Petropolis


(Tackle) Quick Attack // Agility // (Sand Attack) Mud Slap // (Gust, Whirlwind) Hurricane // Wing Attack // Roost // Featherdance // Twister // Tailwind // Heat Wave

As a Pidgey, Bravo was captured after an embarrassing defeat by some loud-mouthed girl's Cherubi. He was donated, much to his gratitude, to a human male who made an immediate effort to improve the bird's health. A feather-loss disease and several pounds of extra weight were the troubles that Darryn faced with his first Pokemon and he took them head on.

Out of all of Darryn's Pokemon, Bravo has made the biggest leap in physicl ability since joining the trainer. Their bond is a close one - signified by Bravo's timely evolution of desperation to rescue his trainer when in Lenoilia. Now, Bravo is one of the fastest Pokemon in Darryn's possession and has proven his ability in battle on many occassions and even learned the powerful fire attack: Heat Wave.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Lady Foxtrot". Caught on the Gigarte-Lenoilia Road. Heal Ball. Female. Flash Fire. Level 60
First Appearance: Lenoilia Ruins


Extrasensory // Quick Attack // Roar // Agility // Energy Ball // Confuse Ray // Imprison // Will-o-wisp // (Ember/Bursting Flame) Flamethrower // Safeguard // Payback // Captivate // Inferno // Fire Blast // Baby Doll Eyes // Feint Attack // Hex // Grudge

Darryn captured his Vulpix on the road to Lenoilia from Gigarte. From the outset she has displayed her fiery temper, contempt for all other humans and Pokemon except for Darryn himself and is self-important to a fault. Even so, she does not let her feelings cloud wise judgement and is quick to respond to co-operation, given orders from her trainer. In an attempt to calm her down, Darryn has given Lady an Soothe Bell to wear but its effects are yet to truly be seen.

Since joining Darryn, Lady has gone from strength to strength and not only in battling. Her psychic ability has grown dramatically in Darryn's presence and her beauty has been bolstered by daily treatments from the Co-ordinator. Her lineage revealed the ability to use the grass attack Energy Ball and she never backs down in the face of danger. She is rarely inside her Heal Ball - Darryn prefering to keep her on show to remind everyone that he is not just a pretty face.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Victor". Caught at the foot of Mt. Carello. Dive Ball. Male. Torrent. Level 50
First Appearance: Team Rogue


Withdraw // Rapid Spin // Bubblebeam // Water Pulse // Icy Wind // Ice Punch // Iron Defense // Rain Dance // Skull Bash // Hydro Pump

It has been noted that Victor has natural flare for Contest-style battling upon his capture. Unusually for a member of Darryn's team, however, Victor is not suited for battling at high speed and instead takes hits while setting up impressive combinations. He has a Poké-crush on Darryn's human friend, Tuesday and is often is seen to be inviting her to the 'gun show' as he flexes his muscles for her to see.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Lima". Traded in Petropolis. Pokeball. Female. Level 45
First Appearance: ?


Pound // Charm // Encore // Sing // Sweet Kiss // Copycat // Magical Leaf // After You // Healing Wish // Disarming Voice // Double-Slap // Wake Up Slap // Bestow // Follow Me // Minimise // Stored Power // Cosmic Power // Metronome // Body Slam // Lucky Chant // Moonlight // Moonblast // Gravity // Meteor Mash

Traded from his friend, Pandora Gibbs, for his Poliwag, Lima the Cleffa is the baby of Darryn's group who absolutely loves two things: food and attention. She has had a keen interest in Contest performing for a while and has proven to be a successful Appeal contestant even in her young age. Now in Darryn's team, her battle capability is yet to be tested but it has been hinted that her strengths will be worked on for some time before she makes a Contest debut.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hart Hotel". Caught at the forest north of Petropolis. Friend Ball. Male. Sap Sipper. Level 57
First Appearance: In the Shadows


Megahorn // Tackle // Camouflage // Growl // Sand Attack // Double Kick // Leech Seed // Feint Attack // Take Down // Jump Kick // Aromatherapy // Energy Ball // Charm // Horn Leech // Nature Power // Double-Edge

"Romeo". Caught in Gigarte. Quick Ball. Male. Volt Absorb. Level 50
First Appearance: Gigarte Park
Evolved from during Lenoilia Ruins

Quick Attack // Double Team // Protect // Swift // Charge Beam // Double Kick // Pin Missile // Thunder Fang // Agility // Thunder Wave // Discharge // Thunder // Last Resort // Helping Hand // Tackle // Sand Attack
<div class='quotetop' align="center" onmouseover="style.cursor='pointer';" onclick="$(this).next().toggle();$('span.spoiler_top', this).toggle();">Romeo's Biography (click to <span class='spoiler_top'>show</span><span class='spoiler_top' style='display:none;'>hide</span>)

<div class='quotemain' style='display:none;'>When Darryn caught his Eevee in Gigarte Park after battling with his Pidgey, his greatest beautification challenge so far presented itself. The Eevee had crazy-long hair that made it unidentifiable at first but a stylish haircut made it the most pampered puppy in Furoh. Not only that, but the Evolution Pokemon seemed to be incredibly childish and playful - walking into windows and tripping over his own feet were not unheard of. Since then, Romeo has battled on several occassions and proven its strength in different ways, including drawing out the power of his Egg Move - Swift.

When first taken to a Joy, Romeo was diagnosed with Canine Hip Dysplasia but his evolution inot a Jolteon seems to have repaired the disorder. On land, Romeo is the fastest in Darryn's team and his maturity has increased upon evolution to boot.

"India". Starting Pokemon. Started at level 6 in . Female. Tinted Lens. Level 17
First Appearance: Gigarte Park
Evolved from during Gigarte Park
Evolved from during Lenoilia Ruins
Current residence: Floaroma Town


Confusion // Supersonic // Ominous Wind // Stun Spore // Gust // Sleep Powder

Biography: India was a timid Caterpie when given to Darryn with a plethora of health issues. Treating her fungal infection while training her, Darryn realised she did not enjoy battling when she reached the Butterfree stage and also noted her comparative weakness within his team. As such, he had no problem sending her away to watch over his friend Mindy when she returned to Floaroma Town.
When Darryn went in for his first Contest, India was his only option for a Appeal Pokemon and so he called her back for the event. As it turned out, the Butterfree was an extremely talented performer - getting him through to the Contest Battle. After receiving his Ribbon, Darryn sent India back to Floaroma Town, promising to bring her back in the future.
Since Starfall Field, Darryn has taken to keeping India in his storage space at the Pallet Town laboratory.

"November". Caught at the Ranch on the Arasam-Lenoilia Road. Repeat Ball. Female. Flash Fire. Level 40
First Appearance: Arasam Adventures
Evolved from in Divide and Conquer

(Fury Attack) Take Down // (Flame Wheel) Flame Charge // Stomp // Hypnosis // Charm // Megahorn // Poison Jab // Fire Spin // Morning Sun // Inferno
Biography:Captured on a ranch between Lenoilia and Arasam, November was another project for Darryn's beautification skills. Her flames were dull when he was given her and she lacked the luster that all fire types should have. With that in mind she has been trained specifically for the bolstering of her beautiful flames and to give her a much-needed confidence boost. Recently, however, that has shown to have made the equine beast particularly vain.

Since Darryn decided that November was not cut out for battling, he has focused on her Appealing abilities, aiming to enter her at the Petropolis Contest Hall as his Appeal Pokemon. They have managed to create a dance routine that Darryn is confident will wow all witnessing the show. True to expectation, November's beautiful Appeal got Darryn through to the battling round where he won his second Ribbon. Deciding that November's time in the limelight has come to an end for the time being, Darryn has transfered her to his storage space at the Pallet Town laboratory.

"Zulu". Caught on Mt. Carello. Luxury Ball. Male. Mold Breaker. Level 30
First Appearance: Climbing Mt. Carello
Evolved from in Team Rogue


Headbutt // Focus Energy // Take Down // Scary Face // Hammer Arm // Assurance // Ancientpower

Darryn rapidly befriended a wild Cranidos when he fell into an abandoned mine on Mt. Carello. The Cranidos led Darryn to the exit, only to be attacked by Team Deception. Not keen to battle, the Cranidos stayed in the background, watching as Darryn fought for their freedom. Deciding that Darryn was a caring and sharing soul, the Cranidos decided to go with him.

Despite having some pretty fearsome moves, blinding speed and excellent battle capability, it has been highlighted that Zulu is very lazy and does not enjoy battling. Since evolving, Zulu has become something of a powerhouse but rarely chooses to battle unless he becomes enraged with an opponent.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Poliwag". Caught in the Forest East of Petropolis. Male. Ability Unknown. Level 35
First Appearance: Divide and Conquer



Hypnosis // Water Gun // Doubleslap // Rain Dance // Body Slam // Bubblebeam // Mud Shot // Belly Drum // Wake-Up Slap

Not much is known about Poliwag at present other than he has no affinity for Contest battling and has a somewhat militaristic personality. Often seen marching with his tail held to attention like a sword, this Pokemon is incredibly obedient but has no interest in performing showwy moves that Darryn wants him to exhibit.
