Name: Erin Kusagai
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Status: Trainer
• On The Outside Looking In •
Hair: Ash Blonde
Eyes: Olive Green
Scars/Markings: --
General Appearance: Erin is fairly petite, both in build and height. Her primary outfit is a typical schoolgirl outfit - a white blouse with a green-and-white striped tie, with a yellow sweater vest, a red plaid skirt, and black boots with white buckles. Her hair is ash blonde and almost always in pigtails, but at rare times her hair is seen down, flowing at the shoulder-length that it is. She has large olive green eyes that, when battling, seem to be constantly moving about, observing all that is happening.

Dislikes: Ice-Type pokemon
Ghost-Type pokemon
Losing
People who harm pokemon
Strengths: Friendliness
Courage
"Unbreakable" determination
Weaknesses: Gullible
Sucker for fruit
Sometimes lacks confidence in herself
Doesnt know how well her pokemon trust her
Personality: Erin is bright, cheerful, direct and confident (most of the time, anyway). However, she easily gets competitive when it comes to pokemon and often trains rigorously, making sure to be able to cleanly defeat any gym or trainers she challenges. She can be bossy and strong-headed when she thinks she is right or something would be best done her way, which sometimes leads to hurting the feelings of others. She doesnt do this intentionally, and is not to proud to apologize if this is the case. She is kind and caring to her pokemon, sometimes showing a gentler side to her usually unyielding personality. She is willing to help anyone, not just her pokemon, family or friends. Even total strangers (which, in turn, could be bad news for her). Her parents identify her strongest trait as being her courage, because she is willing to get in the way of danger to save her friends or pokemon, and never back down from a challenge, even if she knows she will loose. She would normally say "I can very well try!"
• I Am What I Own •
Items: Pokeballs, potions, pokeblocks, berries, badge case (2 badges so far)
Pokemon:
Name: Dratini
Gender: Male
Level: 22
Ability 1: Shed Skin - Heal status problems on own
Ability 2: Marvel Scale - Boosts defense if inflicted with a status problem
Moves: Slam, Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Dragonbreath, Dragon Rush, Extremespeed
Personality: Compared to Erin's other pokemon, her Dratini is rather shy and timid. Found by Erin when he was young and she was just starting her pokemon journey, he has grown to see her as a mother-like figure to her, and often, when out of his pokeball and battling, is rather clingy, wrapping himself comfortingly around her legs to snuggle against her. Sometimes when meeting new pokemon or trainers, he will often be nervous and try to hide behind her and needs a bit of coaxing to go and meet others.
Notes: --
Name: Bagon
Gender: Male
Level: 25
Ability 1: Rock Head - Prevents recoil damage
Ability 2:
Moves: Hydro Pump, Dragon Dance, Dragon Pulse, Flamethrower, Dragon Claw, Shadow Claw, Headbutt
Personality: Bagon, much like his trainer, is incredibly stubborn, confident, and unwilling to back down from a fight, even if he is at a disadvantage. Though select breeding has granted him a unique range of moves, he still has a good deal of training to do with Erin, and will willingly do so. In fact, sometimes he is so eager to fight, pops out of his pokeball at the most inconvenient times for others, but what he sees as the most convenient. His determination shines through if he is on the brink of fainting. He will often give "110%" as it were, if he feels that he is about to loose.
Notes: --
Name: Horsea
Gender: Male
Level: 23
Ability 1: Swift Swim - Raises speed in rain
Ability 2: Sniper - Critical hits deal 3x damage rather than 2x
Moves: Agility, Smokescreen, Bubblebeam, Focus Energy, Ice Beam, Rain Dance, Outrage
Personality: Horsea is probably the most curious of Erin's pokemon. He will quite literally stick his nose into anything, and more likely than not find out the hard way that wasnt the greatest idea. Nevertheless, even after past experiences, he still continues to get himself into trouble, that he most often needs help getting out of.
Notes: --
Name: Trapinch
Gender: Male
Level: 33
Ability 1: Hyper Cutter - Prevents Attack Stat loss
Ability 2: Arena Trap - Prevents a foe from fleeing
Moves: Crunch, Sand Attack, Faint Attack, Earthquake, Dig, Solar Beam, Earth Power, Signal Beam
Personality: Trapinch, simply put, is rather docile...most of the time. He prefers to sit back and stay quiet, watching the day pass before his eyes. In battle, at times, he even acts lazy, moving at the last second to just barely avoid being attacked if he can help it. However, when he sees a true challenge, or is aggravated by something or other, he will go all-out, and whomever is standing near him may want to give their closeness a second thought.
Notes: Erins first actual pokemon, gifted to her by her father.

• How I Became Who I Am •
Family: Mark Kusagai - Breeder - Father
Aleyne Kusagai - Breeder - Mother
History:
- Erin is born to Mark and Aleyne Kusagi, a pair of pokemon breeders that lived in Blackthorn City of the Johto region. Growing up here, Erin grew to be fascinated with Dragon-type pokemon, and practically idolized both Clair and Lance.
- By the age of ten, Erin proved to stick true to the saying of Blackthorn City - most trainers there ended up being Dragon-type enthusiasts. Before she began her pokemon journey, Erin's father took her to the Dragon's Den, sure to keep her close by, so she could witness some of the Dragon pokemon for herself. While her father was training some of his own pokemon, something caught her eye - a small, light blue tail. Wandering closer, simply curious, Erin found herself face-to-face with a tiny Dratini.
- For a long moment, they looked at each other, the Dratini's gaze was mistrustful but hurt...almost even sad, and Erin's feelings got the better of her. She reached her hand out to stroke it, and surprisingly, it let her. It was lonely, and as Erin found out later, its Dragonair mother had been captured by a trainer coming through, and it had been left alone.
- When her father found her, touching the Dratini, he was, for lack of a better word, shocked. He let them have their time together, and called her to leave. By now, the Dratini had wiggled its way to curl up in her lap, and protested when she stood. It followed after her determinedly, struggling to keep up. She picked it up and stared at her father silently with pleading eyes, and he consented to let her have it on one condition, she would have to battle it and capture, like a real trainer.
- He lent her his Trapinch, and within a few moves, she had whittled the Dratinis meager HP down, and, using a pokeball her father gave her as well, captured the Dratini. Elated, she was further surprised when she received her fathers praise, and a gift of the Trapinch as well.
- Before she could officially start her pokemon journey, her parents decided to move to the Star Region.
- Bypassing the starter pokemon offered to her by the regional professor, she began her pokemon journey, soon capturing a Horsea, and once winning battles, returning to her parents' new Breeding farm, and purchasing a Bagon Egg from a pair of their finest Salamence. Hatching it while training her other pokemon, she significantly leveled it within two years, and her other pokemon to their mid twenties, her father's Trapinch to the low thirties.
- She has yet to take on the third gym of the Star region, and hopes to soon make friends she can travel with
