THE APPEARANCE
Pictures of you, pictures of me, remind us all what we used to be...

SHORT APPEARANCE;;

Justin is a tall, blonde Aussie with a bit of a 'beach bum' appearance. He wears glasses and has a scar on his left cheek.

APPEARANCE;;

Justin stands about 6'1", a sturdy teenager coming to the end of his growth spurts. He doesn't mind being slightly tall, however he considers his height average. Especially when around other guys. He tends to stick out in the croud of average guys, due to his blonde, messy hair. When wet, it looks brown, and dries in the same way he styles it. Therefore, he just ruffles it and goes along on his way. It tends to stay down in the back, but towards the front it ruffles a bit.

When you see Justin, the first phrase that comes to mind is usually 'beach bum'. He enjoys wearing cargo shorts, and a white T-shirt, or tank top. Sometimes, shirtless. Shoes are optional, only on rocky terrain. Justin has a toned body, however it's not noticeable unless he's shirtless. He tans naturally, so he ignores sunscreen. He's never seen without his camera, so he's been mistaken for an underdressed tourist before.

However, due to travelling, he's changed his wardrobe a bit to reflect the crazy weather around the region. He has a pair of dark green cargo pants with a few pockets for miscellaneous things. His jacket still has the Raikou stripes like his arm does, and it's dark gray and yellow, alot like his hair hue.

Justin wears glasses, unless he has some contacts available. He has bright green eyes, which are usually the first thing people notice about him. They're not 'otherworldly', just bright. His clothing style is usually around browns and whites, so the splash of color in his eyes often resembles a black and white picture with a photoshop edit. In the cold, Justin wears a green zip-up jacket with a pair of khaki pants. Justin has a bandana he wears when its cold to keep his hair down, but when he's not wearing it, it's wrapped around his wrist. Justin doesn't get cold often, so sometimes in questionably 'cold' weather, he is still seen in his t-shirt and shorts.

Justin his cheek when he recieved his first camera. The Pokemon he was photographing, a Piloswine, charged at Justin, and Justin dove out of the way. The camera broke and the lens busted and left a cut on his cheek that turned into a light scar. It isn't noticeable unless he is in the right light, or you're close enough to him. Justin also has a tattoo on his arm of the same stripes that Raikou has on his leg.

THE PERSONALITY
Good thing i'm not crazy, huh?

PERSONALITY;;

Justin is seen as an incredibly mellow person. He doesn't let too many things bother him. His emotion is often reflected in his eyes, however his eyes don't ever change their light. Justin can find the positive in almost any situation, and enjoys helping others. He'll often put himself in a bothersome situation just so someone can avoid a bothersome situation. He's always willing to give a hand, or two.

Justin isn't indestructable, though. He just doesn't know that. He'll also often go out of his way to have some fun, no matter how dangerous it might be. Justin never goes back on a dare, unless it compromises his morales. He enjoys sitting and taking pictures, and would even be set for life if he didn't have to travel to a large city. Justin doesn't enjoy large crowds, so cities are less than ideal for him.

If Justin is faced with a problem, he'll take things one at a time. He wants to make sure that all details are in place, like a puzzle. If its a problem with other people, Justin'll keep his head cool and try to solve the problem out. Justin has had his share of fist fights, however. However, he'll never start anything.

THE HISTORY
Back then, things were easy.

FAMILY;; Mother: Laura Autumn Pryce, Pokemon Trainer
Father: Andrew Erwin Pryce, Pokemart assistant

HISTORY;;


Justin was born in Ormy Village. His mother was a traveling trainer, Lara Autumn Pryce. She got all the badges, but decided to not face the Elite 4. His father assisted different Pokemarts. They married, and had Justin. Justin's house was full of Lara's Pokemon. Her team consisted of a Kangaskhan, a Marowak, Lapras, Slowbro, and Pidgeot. The Kangaskhan took a particular liking to Justin, and baby Justin was exposed to Pokemon on a close level.

Justin was initially going to become an apprentice to his father. However, a traveling photographer on a Rapidash visited town to take photos of the Village. Justin was playing around the particular spot when the man came to take pictures. Justin refused to stop playing so the man wasn't able to take pictures. To keep the child preoccupied, he handed a portfolio of his photography to Justin, who sat and flipped through it.

Justin fell in love with the colors. There were so many sights and Pokemon he'd never seen before. It filled his head with the dream to do the same thing. The photographer noticed Justin's enthusiasm, and gave him some advice, and a small camera. The man left, unknowing just how much of an impression he left on little Justin.

The first Pokemon Justin took a photo of was Lara's Kangaskhan. He set up her up infront of the well, and took a photo. He developed it by himself, and watched it come up. It was blurry, which made him upset. Justin used his whole film to perfect his photo. When the last photo was taken, to kangaskhan's relief, it finally turned out the way Justin wanted. From then on, birthday gifts, money used from helping Kurt, and gifts from other people had to do with his camera.

One day, a trainer passed by with foreign Pokemon. Justin asked her if he could take pictures of her Pokemon. She agreed, and all of her Pokemon cooperated, except for her Piloswine. The flash bothered the Piloswine, and he charged. Justin jumped to the side, and broke his camera into pieces. The lens shattered and cut his cheek. He was more upset about the broken camera. He apoligized to the Piloswine, and realized just how much he was doing wrong. His love for the photos didn't compromise the Pokemon. He spent the next year piecing together his camera. He customized it to where he could turn the flash on or off, and even bought a new lens.

He turned 21, and decided he wanted to start traveling. His family allowed him, since they knew. Lara took him to on Pidgeot, so he wouldn't see where he'd be going, and each experience would be fresh and new for him. Justin didn't mind, and took pictures from Pidgeot of the sky, and landmarks. When they arrived, Justin prepared himself for the choice of a starter. He said goodbye to his mom, took her gifts he gave her, walked in with his camera, and prepared himself to start his journey.

Upon arriving, he learned that there was one Pokemon who'd been there longer than the others due to a lack of connection with a trainer. Justin decided to give this Pokemon a try, even without knowing the species. It turned out to be a young Lucario.

"Alright mom. Yeah, I know. Don't worry. .... Alright mom. I love you too. .... Don't worry! I've got plenty of lenses. ..... Yes. I packed everything. ....Yes."

Justin sat there, answering his mothers questions. Lara seemed proud, but her motherly instincts worried about him as much as her mother did. Justin grinned, slightly tuning out what his mother kept saying. This is it! Finally! Every journey begins with a single step! he smiled in his mind, transferring it to his face.

"Yes. Don't worry, alright? Professor Elm'll help me. Besides. I already know which one I want." Justin nodded, turning on his camera and taking a picture of his mother. "I'll come visit soon, okay?" He promised. His mother seemed satisfied with this answer, and boarded on Pidgeot. Justin snapped a photo of the liftoff, and then took a photo of the lab before walking inside.

"I don't see a no photography sign.. so I'm just forewarning you... " He announced. This recieved a few chuckles. Justin grinned and took photos. If he was able, he wished he was fitted with a camera that could take millions of photos, so if he put them side by side, it'd be like a movie. He wanted to capture this experience. He spoke with Professor Elm for a few moments, and walked over to the Pokemon. "Definately Squirtle." He smiled.

He recieved his Squirtle, and they sat outside for a moment. "Alright, Riika. I'm fine with going out into the route, but first, we gotta eat." He concluded, handing her a Pokemon treat and nibbling on a banana. He took a photo of Riika without the flash. "Perhaps we should make this a photoshoot. I could set the self timer, and we could slow walk into the route, walk back, and get the camera." he joked. He felt Riika's hard shell. Amazing that something so powerful came in such small packages.

"Yeah.. I have the feeling we're gonna get along juuuust fine." He hoped.
