Name||
Aristos Hardy
Age||
Thirteen
Gender||
Male
Trainer Type||
Ranger
Hometown||
Mahogany Town
Appearance||
*Being of only thirteen years of age, Aristos has not hit puberty yet, or his growth spurt. A measly height of four feet and ten inches is an eternal torment to him. During childhood and throughout life, he has maintained rather good physical fitness. One feature Aristos likes to be proud of is his attractive face, claiming that it makes up for the missing inches in height.
*He sports a head of short, fluffy, green hair with two longer tufts. When one looks into his banana yellow eyes, they are full of energy. His skin is of a deep tan color and often has small scrapes from running around in the woods. During all seasons, Aristos wears red-orange, all-weather boots that fasten with snaps on the in-step. A red-orange vest is worn over all his shirts, and it is hard for one to find him not wearing his fingerless gloves and goggles. On his belt, a lasso is always looped and the same bag is always clasped.
Personality||
*Towards the average person, Aristos would appear to be your typical, somewhat stubborn, pre-pubescent male. However, he actually has quite a soft spot for pokemon and a bad tendency of ignoring logic when it does not support his wants. If angered, a rather normal, aggressive side of him will come out and more often he will challenge someone to a fist fight, race, or tree climbing contest rather than a pokemon battle. In general, everyday situations, though, Aristos is outgoing and reasonably friendly to anyone he meets, and very close to those he considers friends. When it comes to Nayeli Hart, though, he acts quite different. He becomes even more stubborn and extremely competitive, trying to beat her at anything to prove that he's better.
History||
*Mahogany Town was where the boy's life began. Despite the fact that the child was technically an "oopsie baby," the parents were still appreciative of the fact that the baby boy was healthy. Although at first the two were psyched to finally have a child, the former Team Rocket grunts found this was an "experiment" they preferred to not get involved with. Children come with many responsibilities, which they did not really want. Thus, Aristos grew up with not much affection from his parents. They stayed constantly serious and wanted him to be the same. Thus, Aristos pledged to himself that he would never be a boring person.
*While growing up, Aristos's parents always insisted upon him getting sun, often locking him outside for hours at a time, and honestly, he preferred being outside than having to stay inside, keeping his manners stiff. Thus, he came to love the outdoors, and spent most of his days playing outside with the other children. Early on, he met his neighbors, the Hart family, which included the daughter, Nayeli. Both sets of parents insisted that the two children get along. At their first meeting, she hid behind her mother, thoroughly convincing Aristos that she was shy, but felt left out. Thus, he enticed her to come play with him and the other children.
*Quickly, the two became close friends that would often go on adventures together. Their favorite place to hang out was the Lake of Rage. They loved trying to pet the magikarps, and watching Nayeli imitating the aquatic critters was a never-ending amusement for him. With both of them having a horrible sense of direction, getting lost was a very common thing for them. Often, Pryce's wife, Sheila, would find them on her hikes and take them home.
*There was one game the group of children loved to play: hide and seek. This game caused a major shift for him at the age of seven. He realized, at this point, that Nayeli always found him first every time they played hide and seek. Thus, he assumed that she had some sort of personal grudge against him, and decided they were rivals-then making it a point to always find her first. The two tried to best each other at everything-height, looks, running, tree climbing-absolutely everything.
*Somewhere around a year later, a Pineco wandered off of Route 42 and one way or another wound up in the living room of the Hardy household. Thinking it was some sort of toy, Aristos decided to play with the two foot tall pine cone. Obviously, it grew agitated, and decided that that was the last time it was being tossed across the room-it self destructed. Luckily, Aristos did not get hurt in the actual explosion. The house, however, did catch on fire.
*The fire went quickly, and no one was able to save the house. Thus, when Nayeli's mom saw them wondering where they would go, she offered them a place to stay. That is how his house was burned to the ground and his family ended up permanently living in the Hart's house. During the years he lived there, life was somewhat awkward for Aristos. For one, he was expected to live comfortably in the same house as the girl who was his rival, and two, he could not get over that Nayeli's step-dad was a female furret.
*At age nine, Aristos started to consider being a trainer, and went to Pryce for advice. He questioned about what type of trainer would be best for him, who liked outdoors and wild pokemon. Pryce pointed out that a ranger would be perfect, and the boy enthusiastically agreed. Nayeli; however, interrupted, declaring that he couldn't be a ranger, because she was going to be one. While the two bickered, the old gym leader simply pointed out the obvious fact that both of them being the same type of trainer wasn't impossible. The somewhat mutual 'agreement,' if it could be called that, which they reached was that they were going to be a better ranger than the other.
*After many declarations of how awesome they were going to be, Aristos shouted, "I'll be such a good ranger, I won't need to use the routes!" to which Nayeli responded, "Oh yeah? Well, I won't use the routes either, not even to get to New Bark Town!" and the challenge was on.
*When the two went off on their journey at age ten they began a long trek through the wilderness-together only because their parents said they couldn't go otherwise. The whole time, both insisted they knew exactly where they were going, refusing to admit that they were horribly lost. Often, the two ended up going through one area so many times that they had no problem helping other lost travelers to find their way. During the trip, the two constantly argued.
*Despite the fact that Aristos did desire to help Nayeli, his pride prevented him from actually, outwardly helping her. Thus, he would do small things like "accidentally" bumping into her while they were climbing a mountain, giving her that extra boost to get up on a ledge; leaving out his leftovers when she couldn't obtain food for the day; dropping his blanket on her during cold nights while "sleep walking"; or other such things. That did not; however, stop him from eating her leftovers when she left them out. Her cooking was, after all, far superior to his-though he would never admit it openly. With all of the getting lost, helping hikers, and trying to make sure wounded pokemon got home safely, the two arrived in New Bark town three years later, with a far better sense of direction.
Goals||
The major goal of his life is to become an amazing ranger and best Nayeli Hart at everything. His other major goal is to stop the abuse and hatred towards Magikarps.
Other Info||
~ He can't cook worth beans.
~ He is not the ripest banana on the Tropius. (/brightest bulb on the tree/sharpest tool in the shed) AKA: he's not that bright.
