HISTORY;;

Gary Oak was born to a loving couple, Joseph and Natalie Oak on the twenty-second day of November in a small town known as Pallet. The boy and his elder sister, Diasy, were the children of well known researchers in the area and were expected to, from a young age, follow in their footsteps. Thei grandfather, in fact, was working on what many thought was impossible near the time of his birth - a Pokemon Encyclopedia, or the Poke' Dex, if you will. It was obvious that both had large shoes to fill, even at such a young age. However, this proved to not be much of a problem; Diasy was showing great intellegance and understanding of the Pokemon nature and, at roughly one years old, the infant was already proving to be smarter than your average baby. As the years ticked by, the prodogy children continued to prove their astounding skills in various areas. With all of the attention from the other residents of the town, despite the fact his elder sister managed to remain humble, the brunette grew quite prideful with his skills and wasted no time showing them off to anyone and everyone.

Everyone including another local boy nearly three months older than himself. However, unlike many others, this red-eyed wonder was not at all impressed by Gary's skills or heritage, instead growing a strong dislike for the younger of them both for being so self confident with himself. The two became the equivelant of bitter rivals, even before hitting the age of five, lashing out at one another and doing everything they could to get at one another. It was during these older years that the other boy - Red was his name - first developed the nickname "Green" as a way to undermine his enemy. The newfound nickname was not at all hated, however, and it stuck with him for many years to come. That aside, it was made apparent that the two were to be kept away from one another at all costs. Every time they saw one another, after all, they began bickering and pulling at each other's hair until one of them started bawling.

This all changed, however, on one fateful day. While the boy's parents were away on a business trip in Viridian City, he and his only sibling were left in the care of their grandfather once more. It wasn't anything odd - these sorts of trips were quite frequent in their family, after all. When they did not return the next day, though, people began to worry just in the slightest. And then the next day. And the next. And the next. After two weeks of being dubbed missing, the researchers' bodies were found thrown in a ditch just outside of the lush city, presumably murdered while in town. Orphaned at only seven years old, Green's life was shattered at the news of his parent's demise. The once bragging prone male was reduced to a pathetic heap, the only person bothering to care about his well-being being the child who he'd deemed his mortal enemy. The two formed a bond over this mourning period, so to speak, and the hatred they felt towards one another decreased greatly.

Of course, this couldn't last forever.

The day that Professor Oak declared that he'd set aside some Pokemon for the lamenting green-eyed boy to pick from and use during a journey across the Kanto region was the day that very boy made a u-turn back to his old life style. Of course, he couldn't actually set off until he reached his tenth birthday, but that was only a month or so away. The previous, broken sort of "friendship" the two boys had formed over that time was replaced once more by rivalry; not so much out of hatred, but more out of a feeling that they had to best the other. This meant that, when Red heard tht Green was being allowed to obtain a Pokemon from the Professor, it'd be necessary for him to go into the wild and catch his own. Ironically enough, the day that the green-eyed male was to pick up his started, the older of the two went out to Route One and was saved by the aging man himself when attempting to catch a Pokemon with his bare hands. Angered that, after this scene the boy with black hair was allowed to choose a starter not only as well but first, he chose the Pokemon with an advantage over the other's, reguardless if it was the one he'd planned on starting out with or not.

From that day forward, Green faced a string of defeats at the hands of his quiet rival and, while he retained his egotism, a part inside of him was left fuming over his constant defeats. Every other trainer - youngster, hiker, gym leaders, even - fell prey to his Pokemon... but no Red. Never Red. It was obvious that the older was gaining favoritism with the Professor, as well, only managing to anger him further. It was then that the brunette made it his goal to become the Pokemon League champion; Red would never be able to compete with him if he attained that title. The child protogy dedicated days and days to training his partners to the highest level he could before finally manning up and taking on the Pokemon League. The Elite Four proved to be just as strong as Red when he'd last faced him - if not stronger - and, by beating each and every one of them, he felt a sense of accomplishment. If he'd beaten four trainers stronger than his rival in a row, didn't he, by extension, defeat the rival himself? The boy was allowed only hours to congratulate himself on the accomplishment when a certain red-eyed male burst through those doors, demanding one last battle for the title of champion.

Green had self control. If he hadn't, the moment his last Pokemon fainted, the challenger - who barely made it out of the battle himself - would be dead in a heart beat. When Professor Oak arrived, he congratulated Red instead of his own grandson, only angering him further. For a while, he refused to talk to his caretaker, the champion of the region... anyone, save for the sister he loved to dearly. When the very person who'd beaten him as champion tried out for the newly openned position as the Viridian City gym leader, his pride caused him to attempt to steal the position out from under the older's nose. It was only to prevent him from becoming leader; he never realized he, himself, would get the position instead. However, it was hard to stay mad when the quiet boy from Pallet Town claimed that he was going to train on Mt. Silver and would likely be up there for some time. Though hesitantly, Green bid him farewell and settled down in Viridian to - hopefully - start over again.

The years ticked forward with no dign of his former rival whatsoever. Occationally, he'd hear the male's name fly through the air, used in the conversations of pedestrians, but the person himself never dared to climb down that mountain after so long and converse with the world around him. And maybe part of him liked it better this way. At least he could brag about being "the very best, like no one ever was" without someone stronger coming around and messing with his plans. Of course, as more and more years passed, he found his life... boring. The gym had never been something he'd be absolutely thrilled about - he only got the position, after all, to best his rival at something - but it seemed to become more and more of a chore. Soon, he travelled around, sight seeing, only battling those who sought him out and challenged him directly. And, after a while of that, he retired completely, claiming that, maybe, some day, he would return to the sport and find it much more thrilling. He, instead, returned to Pallet and began to aid in his grandfather's research, enjoying his time there much more than he had at the gym.

When the distant region of Lyeant was discovered, the older man took off to gather data they wouldn't be able to find back in Kanto, leaving his legacy to take care of the labin his wake. Not long after, due to his deminishing health, he was forced to return, not happy of how little he'd learned of all there was to discover. Diasy offered to go in his place and report every back to him due to the fact he couldn't go himself. After being granted permisison, the younger of the two declared that he couldn't see her go unprotected and decided to tag along. At first, the two were left in awe at the nearly untouched region and started researching the area and everything about it as soon as they possibly could. It was absolutely perfect.

Until the universe tore her out of his life as well.

The two were ambushed by members of Team Imum, one late night at the lab. The girl, deemed unimportant and unworthy was slaughtered on spot before his very eyes by the ruthless team members. Enraged to a point he'd never been before, the brunette attempted to fight every single one of them off on his own, blindly flailing and forgetting even to summon his Pokemon. While he managed to ward them off for a bit, it wasn't long before he was knocked out cold and at their mercy. However, instead of ending up dead, the man found himself in from of the leader of the organization who'd taken his sister herself. Apparently, she knew of his endevours - becoming champion, even if for a short time, at such a young age, being the nearly undefeatable gym leader of Viridian, being the esteemed grandson of the greatest researcher of the time - and her men had been impressed by his ability to hold off their approach single handedly. She also claimed, however, that, even if it would be a shame to put someone like himself to death, she could see the rage in his eyes and keeping someone like that running around simply wouldn't do. So, instead, he was thrown in a sort of "dungeon", you could call it, for "reconditioning" and wouldn't be let out until he bowed down before her feet as her humble servant.

This, obviously, left him in prison for some time. Green's pride made it nearly impossible for him to bend to the will of others, much less belittle himself to that of a lowly grunt of such an organization. He'd witnessed Team Rocket's assults first hands, after all, even assissted in their destruction. How could they think that he would break with a few measly words? The time spent behind bars was nearly unbareable and, with the lingering memory of the person he loved most in the world murdered so easily by the people running back and forth in front of his over-sized cage hanging over is head, he was very close to snapping for good. After what seemed like an eternity - though it was well over a month or so, in reality - he finally gave in, swearing his allegiance to the people he very well hated the most at that certain time. He swore vengance on that day, as well, telling himself that he would make these monsters pay for all of the things they had done to him. Since, Green has climbed to the rank of an elite and hates every day of his work there.

POST EXAMPLE;;

Sora woke up to the noise of a girl's voice and quickly put on his hoodie to hide his ears and tails when he thought he heard the voice of a meowth, when the girl responded he heard her more clearly and recognized her voice, yes that girl.

The one who he left Team Inum for, it all happened that fated day. He say the beautiful gijinka who stole his heart and led him away from the dreaded Team Inum. He needed to know her name, It was the one thing since that day that had been driving him crazy. Of course Kirara was there to help him calm down so he could sleep, but what is that worth, when he couldn't keep calm after that, he just needed to know this girl's name, so he could finally sleep well, at least knowing her name. So he began a little plan he thought of on the spot, poke her randomly and get slapped.
