Christian generally wears a blue short sleeved shirt that is kept rather clean, even during his journeys, and some blue jeans that are kept just as clean. He wears a light gray jacket that he'll sometimes wrap around a strap on his backpack depending on the heat. His backpack was a smaller hiking pack that often looked as if it were overflowing with supplies. Resting on top of the backpack and strapped around his neck was a boonie hat that he would slip on if it was ever too sunny or rainy. He often likes to go for a swim, and thus, often brings along some swimming trunks and goggles. The goggles often rest around his neck as well.
PERSONALITY
Christian is a very laid back individual, rarely letting anything get to him and always "going with the flow". His overall personality really shines in small groups, giving off a general relaxed vibe. In his head, he's constantly playing out scenarios, some good, some bad. He only ever voices those when one seems likely to happen, it's his way of contributing it a group. Whenever he's in the midst of a competition or something, he'll disregard any secondary plans or strategies and dive in with the first one he gets. Sometimes quite literally, given how much he enjoys swimming.
Christian isn't very fond of cold areas though, he's a bit sensitive to the cold and it gets to him easily. It comes with him enjoying the water, the cold just counteracts it so easily. In the cold, his general attitude shifts to "I want to get out of here as soon as possible, may be we please hurry this along so I can go some place warm already?" In other words, he becomes much more hurried and out to get stuff done faster so he can get to the warmth of a fire or someplace not freezing faster. His go with the flow attitude changes to get to shore as soon as possible so you can go with the flow in the warmth again. Basically he really doesn't like the cold.
BACKGROUND
Christian was born in Lacaille City to a rather low wage family. It never caused any problems for him at a young age as he was always really calm about everything and never really needed much out of anything. During most of his early life, he'd either simply laze about at the local beaches and enjoy the free time he had or take care of random water type pokemon, healing them and mending their wounds at times. He was always a bit of a dreamer, looking out towards the possibility of a journey, but never really feeling ready, especially without a pokemon by his side. As the years grew on and he grew older, that desire did tame itself a little, but it always was there, in the back of his head. He wouldn't ever truly tame this inward desire and need until he had finally done it. On his twentieth year of life, he found a Squirtle on one of his usual trips to the beach. This Squirtle had a damaged knee and was in need of help. He, being the helpful person he is, obliged.
After a short period of time, this Squirtle was back in good condition, but in that time, it had grown rather attached to him. Always following the man about, and even staying at his house. With this Squirtle added to the equation, one that he would soon name Aqueous, he finally decided that now was the time to go. Now would be the time that he would have a journey and go see the world, or go win some challenges, or whatever the world took him! Now was their time.

PERSONALITY — Aqueous is a leader at heart. He constantly likes to take charge of a situation and act like he can lead the world. In some cases, he definitely can, in others, not so much. Much to Christian's dismay, Aqueous will often go ahead of him as if he owned the entire world. This was clearly a very proud Squirtle who... Was kinda smaller than the rest of his kind, but oh well, that just mean't more pride packed into a smaller package! He would seem rather fearless in the face of literally anything, because his sheer pride told him that if he didn't act fearless, he couldn't be in charge. Even though he wasn't in charge... Christian was, as he was still undoubtedly loyal.
