PERSONALITY
- Gozubura is a hotheaded guy; if someone is trying to pick a fight with him or his friends, he's the first to jump up and get involved. He doesn't actively seek fights, but he's always ready to throw down. This compounds strongly with his urge to protect his friends, and as such he's often sticking his nose into fights he doesn't belong in. He's been known to try and duke it out with wild Pokemon himself at times, despite it backfiring on him more than once.
- He's academically bad, but pretty wise in the world... in his own way. Gozu loves to read alien theories and tabloid magazines, but also keeps a level head about him - he might propose that aliens is the answer to a mystery, but he's not going to refute perfectly good evidence right in front of him... even if it might still be aliens. He may not be able to tell you how a cell phone works or do his own taxes - if he had any - but he can have a heart-to-heart with you on how to be a happy person and how to have a good time.
- Gozubura is a pretty kindred spirit with his Pokemon. He treats them all like family, even viewing his first Pokemon as his best friend. He values treating Pokemon nicely, and has a huge problem with people who don't. He understands people wanting to enforce strict training or corrective learning, but... any kind of Pokemon abuse will rile him up.
- He isn't the most graceful of people in social situations, and often sticks his foot in his mouth. He has no concept of ranks or social order, and will speak to a duke the same way he'd speak to a kid on the streets unless pressed.
BACKGROUND
- Gozubura's parents were double-battle circuit winners back in Kanto-Johto; popular enough to make a career out of it and keep some level of fame to their name. Compared to them, young Gozubura was a natural wild child, always running out and getting hurt trying to mess with local Pokemon rather than staying put in their Kanto estate. After enough times getting himself in trouble, his parents decided to send him to a nice Kalosian Pokemon Academy to help him out once he hit age ten.
- For the next five years he was stuck in Santalune Town, although he made the best of it and even made a reliable group of friends. It was rough at first, since he did poorly academically and often had to rely on others for help, and getting into scuffles and fights was frowned upon. Gozubura tried his best to keep his nose clean, but he couldn't help but stand up for himself or his friends when pressured. He didn't take well to being picked on, and was somewhat of a bully himself since it was all he knew - it was how he thought to make friends and have fun. When it came time for graduation, he set out with this group to see about completing the gym circuit and make something of themselves.
- On their journey, they ran into a mysterious group bent on furthering the evolution of mankind - it wouldn't be the first or the last time they would have a run-in with them. The police and Pokemon League were doing their best to keep them in check, but they were a small anonymous group relying on skirting legality to get away with a lot of their experiments and tasks. Gozubura and crew knew it was morally wrong, however, and set out to stop them. They would cross paths with several of the leaders, each with their own goals and terrible pokemon and morphs. With support of trainers in the region, the league infrastructure, and even at one point the international police, they managed to fight things back over time.
- They came into their own as trainers and as people, but it all came down to a final face-off with the nefarious group, culminating in a victory but an exhausting one. Many of Gozubura's friends were hurt, and he felt overwhelmed and blown-out himself, having taken the brunt of the final explosive assault. While they had survived, they all needed a nice vacation in a hospital bed, and their Pokemon needed a break from battling for a while. With the group's leaders gone, they hoped it was all said and done, and they could be finished with the entire mess.
- After spending some downtime to heal and recuperate in the hosptial with his allies, Gozubura decided he needed a fresh start. He entrusted his beloved Pokemon to his parents for safekeeping at their own home, taking on a new Pokemon egg and finding a fresh region to set out upon. Gozubura has decided to try a nicer, fresher lifestyle to keep himself out of danger...

PERSONALITY — Goopy has affection on the mind. A spoiled Pokemon, Goopy's favorite activity happens to involve hugging, even if hugging a Grimer happens to involve getting a little slimy and gross in the process. If he had his way, he'd be perched on a trainer's back at all times. Outside of that, he prefers to keep things relaxed and chill - no need to be in a rush, no need to be too nosy, and no need in being aggressive. Battling is just a thing that happens in Goopy's eyes, but he will always prefer a nap. Goopy simply yearns for a simple life with a trainer.
