Character Name: Koote
Pronoun Choice: He/Him
Age: 62
Home Region: Hoenn
Personality Overview: Koote is absolutely off his rocker. He's extremely smart, but it comes across as nonsense. He speaks in sentences that have no linear progression or plot. He will regularly break out into sing song tunes and do little jigs to emphasize his point. Koote likes the outdoors and has become afraid of buildings and society. He cares deeply for all pokemon, refusing to "Own" any animals.

History:
Koote was once a talented trainer, born and raised in the Hoenn Region island city of Deport, he eventually worked his way up the ladder of the Hoenn region gyms, where he became the Proprietor of a training school to help young trainers prepare for their journey through the Gym Circuit.
One day, during an exhibition bout with an upstart trainer, Koote's life-long friend and partner, Matilda the Aggron, who was his starter, was killed during the match. As Matilda lay dying in his arms, the trainer simply stated that she was replaceable and "nothing more than a beast to serve humans". This enraged Koote, who used Matildas pokeball to bludgeon the trainer into a stupor.
Fearing the consequences, and being heartbroken and disillusioned with the system, Koote fled, releasing every pokemon he had, save one: Hammy. The small Aron was the runt of Matilda's only litter of offspring. Hammy refused to leave Koote, even after being released. Hammy followed Koote wherever he went and eventually filled the hole that was left with Matildas murder.
Koote has spent 30 years wandering the mountains, surviving off the land and the charity of backpackers. He no longer remembers his name, having not used it so long. He goes by Koote, because Koote is what he's called.
One day, a group of backpackers told him of a new region that had been found and of the attempt to colonize it. That one of the major foundations heading the operation were committed to the safety and preservation of the indigenous pokemon. A flash of his past life flickers across his memory and sparks a sense of adventure, dread, and hope. Maybe this new region will do it right? Maybe he can once again relate to people. He decides to join the backpackers on their journey to and across the sea.
