Name: Jean Bishop
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Trainer Type: Pokémon Breeder
Hometown: Hearthome City, Sinnoh
Appearance: Jean is tall and slender, with a fair complexion. She has long brown hair that would reach her lower back if let down, though she prefers to keep it held up in a ponytail. Her eyes are pale blue, and are framed by dark lashes. She wears very little make-up, instead preferring a more natural look.
Style wise, Jean prefers to dress modestly. Blouses and skirts are her first choice in everyday clothing. She prefers floral patterns to solid ones, and hand-made items of clothing hold an extra special place in her heart. Bows and bandanas also feature often as hair accessories.
When its cold, Jean likes to bundle up. She’s cold natured, and so the slightest breeze can cause her to tremble. On these days, she enjoys donning longer knee length coats, with matching scarves and gloves. She rarely wears winter hats, though when she does, it indicates that she’s freezing.
Personality: Jean is a very kind and nurturing individual. She rarely has a mean word to say about somebody, and she tried to see the best in a person. She grew up surrounded by siblings, so she’s used to dealing with many different personalities. She enjoys socialization, and rarely likes being alone.
On the other side of the same coin, while Jean tries to see the best in people, that leaves her prone to getting taken advantage of. She’s sensitive and soft hearted, and doesn’t deal well with mean-spirited people. When angry, she’s prone to tears. A life of crime is something that Jean would never be capable of.
With a nurturing nature, comes a good amount of patience. Jean understands that things take time, and you won’t always see results right away. She’s dedicated her goals, and doesn’t let perceived obstacles stop her. She’s a loyal friend, and is willing to stand by her friends through thick and thin.
History: Jean was born one spring morning in Hearthome City, Sinnoh. She was the youngest of eight children: four boys and four girls. Her parents ran a bakery together, and so she learned to work at a very young age. While her family wasn’t exactly wealthy by any stretch, she was well taken care of, and found satisfaction in helping her parents out with their bakery.
At the age of twelve, a fire broke out at the bakery, burning it to the ground. Her mother didn’t make it. The rest of the family was devastated, but they vowed to move forward. Her father got a job at a local restaurant, and each sibling contributed where they could. At the age of fifteen, Jean got a job as an assistant at a Pokemon daycare.
The daycare was always quite busy, and Jean took every opportunity to learn everything that she could about the art that was breeding Pokemon. She studied up on every book that she could find on the subject, and stayed as late as she needed to while at work. It was there that she realized that she wanted to become a Pokemon breeder herself one day, and that meant she couldn’t cut corners while learning the craft.
At the age of eighteen, Jean lost her father to a heart attack. It was sudden and unexpected, and Jean finally found herself well and truly alone. All her siblings had grown up and moved away from home, pursuing their own dreams and careers. It was then that Jean realized that it was her turn to leave home and start her own journey as a breeder. She knew that it would be a tough road, but she knew that the first step would be to make a name for herself.
She left Sinnoh and its many memories behind her, hoping to start fresh. She chose Johto because it seemed like as good a place to start as any, not too close to home, but not too far away. With that decided, she gathered her bag, and started her journey.
Goals: Jean wants to make a name for herself, so that she could begin her own Pokémon Daycare. She figured that earning the gym badges of this region would be a good start, just to get her name out there.
Other Info: Her Siblings all stayed in Sinnoh.
