Name:
Hideki Takemori
Age:
14
Gender:
Male
Trainer Type:
Pokémon trainer, Psychic
Hometown:
Hideki was born in Cherrygrove City.
Appearance:
Hideki is a small boy, and always has been. He stands at 5' even, and is just slightly on the skinny side of build. His hair is green, and kept just past his ears, always just a little bit unkempt, as if he didn't take care to brush it after showering. His eyes, also green, were always scanning his surroundings, curious, taking everything in. Despite how often he's looking around, he always has a kind of far off look to him, as if he's not -quite- paying attention (although he certainly always is), and it can be a bit disconserting to people who don't know him very well. His cheek bones are a bit sharp, and make his face look somewhat angular. Even his ears are a bit long on the top, adding the triangular shape to his face. All told, though, he's not unattractive or unpleasing to look at, he's just very angular.
He wears simple clothing, eschewing fashion and labels for simplicity and inexpensive outfits. Tshirts are a necessity, generally white or tan with no designs, as well as jeans or shorts. Tennis shoes always adorn his feet, so he's always ready for anywhere he may need to go. He tries to keep his outfits colored with greens, tans, browns, and whites, all very earth toned, to match his eyes and hair. However, again, he's not very fashion conscious; he doesn't keep things coordinated so he can look "cool" or be approved of by the "fashion police", he simply likes matching for its own sake. Everything he does as far as his clothing goes is for his own sake.
During the different seasons, obviously, Hideki changes his outfits as necessary. In the spring, he keeps his standard tshirt/shorts outfit, though he does keep his favorite light-tan hoodie tied around his waist in case it gets chilly. In the summer, he leaves his hoodie at home or in his pack, and exclusively wears tshirts and shorts. He sometimes goes barefoot in the summer as well, as shoes can get to be a bit much in the warmer climates. In the fall, Hideki wears tshirts as always, but generally wears jeans instead of shorts to keep his legs from the brisk wind. Once again, he also keeps his hoodie tied around his waist, always ready for wind or rain. Winter time is when Hideki's outfit changes the most, as he is very practical. He wears jeans, as always, but instead of tshirts he wears long sleeved shirts or even sweatshirts. Instead of his hoodie about his waist, he constantly wears his winter jacket, which is the only piece of clothing he has with a logo; an image of the mask that Will, the Psychic Elite Four member, wears, which is on the center of the back of his jacket.
Personality:
Hideki is a very kind boy, though it may take some time for people who meet him to realize this. As noted above, he always seems very distant, even though he is distinctly paying attention to those around him. He listens intently, even if it doesn't appear that way, and he has an astounding memory, able to recall specifics of a conversation from weeks or months prior. When he speaks, he generally speaks with purpose, avoiding pleasantries unless he knows the person very well, though he can be kind even to those he doesn't. When he first meets somebody, he listens to them, and asks questions about them, hoping to learn as much as he can about them, because that makes further social interactions all the easier. He will divulge information about himself if asked, but he doesn't like to talk about himself unless he is provoked, because he doesn't want to seem rude. He knows he comes off as a bit "weird" to people, and he tries to compensate for it when possible.
When Hideki gets close to someone, he remains very loyal and does not break that bond easily. He has a hard time letting people in, and so when he does, he does everything he can not to jeapordize that friendship. He does have a tendency to be stubborn at times, though, and that has caused issues between friends in the past. Unless presented with hard evidence, he tends to stick by his own opinions and values, not always taking other people's opinions to heart. This sometimes affects conversations, too, as he will not hesitate to point out when somebody has said something he disagrees with, and he is quick to "correct" that person, even if it is inconsequential.
History:
Hideki was born in Cherrygrove, and this is where he was raised and lived until very recently. From a very early age, shortly after he could speak with fluency, he was able to speak into people's minds. It was very undisciplined, and for a while, he couldn't control what or when he said things. Any thought that entered his brain would just shoot into people's heads, and he could not control this. As such, people were very, very unnerved around him, because they always had his voice floating about their heads. And so, when he was only 5, he started seeing a counselor who also had psychic powers. His counselor, Jimmy Horonzo, taught him to control his telepathy, and eventually he was able to project only those thoughts he wanted to. He also brought about a latent telekinesis in Hideki, and after a couple of years, Hideki was able to lift things with his mind, so long as they were not too heavy or too large.
Because of his focus on harnessing and controlling his psychic abilities, Hideki did not become a Pokémon trainer when he turned 10. Even as his powers became completely controlled, he still kept meeting with Jimmy, hopeful that his powers would grow stronger. One thing Jimmy stressed very importantly was that a dull mind would lose the ability to harness psychic powers, and so Hideki made sure to do well in school and keep his mind sharp. He got mostly A's, and a few B's here and there, as well as excelling in sculpting and painting. He never got much into floral arrangement, which is something his mother thought he should attempt since they lived in such a floral town.
When Hideki was 12, he started watching television and keeping up with current events in the world. As such, that was when he found out about other trainers in general, but specifically the Elite Four. When he learned about Will, the psychic trainer, he became enraptured. He loved the idea of a psychic training psychic Pokémon, and followed Will's exploits and battles closely. Finally, a month ago, Hideki decided he wanted to follow in Will's footsteps and become a trainer. He asked his mother's permission, and despite the fact that she didn't want to let her only son go, she allowed him. Hideki left Cherrygrove to go to New Bark town and get his first Pokémon, so he could start his journey.
Goals:
Hideki's goals are few, but they are very important to him, and one of them is not immediately obvious even to those close to him. His first goal is pretty obvious to anybody, and he will gladly talk about it whenever asked. It is one subject he is very passionate about, and that is following in Will's footsteps. Hideki does not necessarily want to become the greatest trainer in the world, and honestly, badges themselves are not important to him. However, he does want to meet Will in battle, and he knows that the only way to reach the Elite Four is to get all of the badges in Johto. Therefor, Hideki's primary goal is to get all of the local badges and meet his idol, so that they can battle, and hopefully afterwards be able to talk and discuss things. He hopes to become Will's apprentice, and train with him.
His second, less obvious goal, is to create art that lasts and that people remember. Though he is primarily focused right now on Pokémon training, he does frequently practice his art, and he keeps supplies with him at all times in his pack. He practices as often as possible, hoping some day to be able to sculpt a statue that someone would want to display in a town center, of pain a picture that someone would want to keep in their house. He is extremely shy about his art at the moment, however, and is reluctant to show people unless they have been close for some time.
Other Info:
Hideki's psychic abilities are as follows: (this concept was approved by Revolvingscott, Aries0 via the chatbox)
--He can lift up to 15 pounds telekinetically, and he can lift things within 20 feet of himself.
--He can send thoughts telepathically. He can speak to someone's mind and hear their response from their mind as well. This also has a range of 20 feet.
--He notably CANNOT read people's thoughts beyond their responses to his telepathy, however. He cannot probe people's minds or invade their thoughts in any way.
--He does hope to further train his psychic abilities.
Hideki's possessions upon leaving Cherrygrove:
--Messenger bag strapped over one shoulder that hangs at his side.
--Full set of acrilic paints, as well as a few brushes, and a few small canvases, all kept in the bag.
--About two pounds of clay, as well as sculpting tools.
