Name: Taka Izumo
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Profesion*: Trainer. Fancies himself a flying specialist.

Appearance: Taka stands about five feet, five inches. His figure is just barely thick enough to avoid accusations of anorexia. He is lacking in muscle: scrawny would be an apt description. His eyes are a hawklike gold, and his long, flowing hair light blue - or at least it looks that way; in reality, both are black and he uses contacts and dye to seem cooler.

His shirt is light brown in color, a shade reminiscent of a Spearow, with two white and wholly non-functional wings attached to its back which occasionally leave it messy with feathers his pants are an identical shade. It falls loosely around him, revealing little of his frame. He is often mistaken for a cosplayer from some unknown series. The shirt possesses two deep pockets on the sides of the torso and the pants an identical shade – he typically leaves his pokeball, crumpled-up map, poketech and tins of food for himself and his pokemon in them, then finds himself searching each of his four pockets in his forgetfulness.

History:

Taka claims, at the age of five, on a trip with his family to the mountains, to have sighted a wild Articuno which led him back to safety. The veracity of this claim is often doubted: some say it was some other flying pokemon, while others claim he imagined the whole thing. Nonetheless, the fact remains that he survived, while his family did not. From this experience, he was inspired to specialize in flying-types, both in gratitude to the Articuno and the thought that if he commanded flying pokemon, he could have led them to safety.

Unfortunately, his parents lacked life insurance or close relatives to take him in. When he was found after descending the mountain on which his parents met their doom, he was taken in to an orphanage in Kijutsu City, enduring for five years, then tossed out after being given a pokemon at the age of ten. Four four years he lived as a petty thief, using his Gligar's sand attack to distract vendors while he snuck in and grabbed the food he needed – pokeball salesmen, however, were tougher, and his occasional successful heists never culminated in capturing even a Pidgey.

After a harsh night in jail for theft, he resolved to end his current lifestyle, and with few other options and dreams of mastering the skies and catching legends, begun his pokemon journey.

Personality*: Taka is cold, withdrawn, and always looking skyward. His interactions with others are typically laced with sarcasm and contempt, although he makes efforts to avoid alienating those with power over him. He possesses loathing of ice-types, snow, mountains, and cold weather – that he claims to have been saved by an Articuno does nothing to make him approve of the type – but around fliers, he will open up, and he treats his pokemon with nothing but absolute kindness and sympathy.

Starting Pokemon: Gligar
Nickname*: Myo-kun.
Differences*: The Gligar's body is riddled with scars, mostly on its thorax-like center.

Starting Town: Kijutsu City
Poketech Color: Blue

Everything looks all right, I just need a UMod+ to approve the Gligar's differences just because it's a little more than the usual lighter or darker shade.

Your bio is not quite spectacular, so it is a no go on the color change. You can keep the scars though.

Okay. Should I edit the color change out of my post, then?

Well, you can edit the profile and see if you can get the wings colored differently or you can edit the wing color out and be accepted now. However you want to play it.

Ah, okay. Edited out the color change - it's not a big deal, scars are distinctive enough.
