BSC: Nathaniel Vale

Name: Nathaniel Vale
Age: 20
Hometown: Lavender Town
Personality: Nathaniel is very mild mannered and shy, though he can be loud of the opportunity presents itself. He is a very aggressive battler, but is rather easy to push around any other time. Nathaniel does not like big cities and has little to no street smarts. He is always getting lost or ripped off by some con. He loves his Pokémon more than the world itself, and the little spitfire will hurt you if he thinks you are trying to hurt his Pokémon. His goal is to be the best trainer for his pokemon that he can be.
History: Nathaniel is a small town boy from the Kanto region who is a whiz with Pokémon. He left home at the age of fourteen with his mother's approval, and has been traveling ever since. He comes from a family that traditionally helps with the upkeep of the Pokémon Tower, but Nathaniel had bigger dreams than that. His first Pokémon was his vulpix which he named Maxine, 'Max' for short, though she later evolved into a ninetails. Nathaniel makes money by doing odd jobs and battling on his travels, and has amassed a nice size chunk of cash with he uses to buy battling supplies and such...

Pokemon #1:
Name: “Max”
Species: Ninetails
Sex: Female
Ability: Flash-Fire
Nature: Curious
Hold Item: Zoom Lens
Battle style: Max is an aggressive battler that focuses on the offence. With her killer speed and frightening fire attacks she works perfectly for Nathaniel’s style. She can get a little bit reckless, but makes up for it with quick thinking. She is a tough opponent and must be watched.
Athletic stat: Speed
Contest stat: Cool
Other info: Maxine was Nathaniel's first Pokémon. He found her sniffing through his back yard when she was still a vulpix one day when he was thirteen, and she ended up taking a like to him and claiming him as her human. By the time he was fourteen she let him put her in one of those silly little balls, the one that he keeps around his neck, but this does not stop her from running wild most of the time. She usually walks beside Nathaniel, and is rarely seen in her pokeball, though this has gotten somewhat troublesome since she evolved.

Pokemon #2:
Name: Malin
Species: Cubone
Sex: Male
Ability: Lightningrod
Nature: Reckless
Hold Item: Thick Club
Battle style: Destructive… Malin likes to show how strong he is… He is purely offensive and very reckless. More often than not he ends up destroying whatever area he’s battling in.
Athletic stat: Power
Contest stat: Tough
Other info: Malin is a little guy that is convinced he's the strongest out there. He is constantly trying to impress Nathaniel with his 'feats of strength' that usually end up causing massive amounts of collateral damage. He loves to eat spicy foods, and if you give him bitter foods he will refuse to eat them. He's probably the most finicky eater out of all of the Pokémon that Nathaniel has.

Pokemon #3:
Name: Naideen
Species: Golduck
Sex: Female
Ability: Damp
Nature: Calm
Hold Item: Wave Incense
Battle style: Not much of a fighter Naideen takes the cautious approach, keeping a cool head throughout battle. She will often use special type moves as opposed to physical moves. She prefers to stay away from the opponent and either let them come to her or destroy them from afar…
Athletic stat: Skill
Contest stat: Beauty
Other info: Naideen is a gorgeous golduck who Nathaniel caught as a psyduck around Cerulean City. Naideen is mild tempered and loves to swim. She is a fine example of her species, with a gorgeous coat enhanced by eating poffins, lovingly made by Nathaniel. She's a contest girl, and loves to compete, though nothing compares to swimming to her.
