History (optional):
-childhood WIP-
After moving to the Sinnoh region to research the different pokemon there and to explore the forests and such, Ben settled in the empty house in Eterna, right next to Cycling Road. It's location gave him the chance to hear the latest news on pokemon, and to practice his not-so-great battling skills. One day, a cyclist came from the forest, huffing from the exertion of speeding out of there as fast as he could. Ben, of course, asked him his name, and what had made him flee the forest. The man, whose name was Earl, replied,"There were these-these things! They were ha-half pokemon! Morphed in-into one creature! A pokemorph! The-they they chased me! Some-some from the air-there was one with big blue wings, and another that had-had green horns!-and others from the ground! 2 of them had the same kind of ears, and the other just followed them, seemed real dizzy, it did. They were all crazy fast! So I had to get outta there, save my own skin, yanno? Wait...ya probably don't believe me. So why did I tell ya all that?" At that Earl cycled off again. Ben, however, just stood there, pondering the story the man had just told him.
"Half-human, half pokemon...Hmm...pokemorphs...seem more advanced than humans...flying...speed...gotta go research.." he muttered to himself, then headed back to his home. At his laptop, Ben searched for explanations, scientific studies, anything. He found nothing. Taking it upon himself, Ben attached the protective casing to his laptop, and readied the solar panels. He grabbed his pokeballs, some food, and a change of clothes, and stuffed them into his satchel, along with his now wilderness ready laptop. He set out for the forest, determined to find out about these pokemorphs.
(He's not dangerous or anything, he just wants to figure out what the 'morphs are, and if they cause harm. He's not going to tell anyone. I'll roleplay his character better once we start. Not the best showing of his harmless, curious personality up there).

...WIP stands for Work In Progress, right? Not something else?

Yep. Work in Progress.

Looks like a good character, Blaze.

Thanks! I need to practice with him. Actually, I just need a lot more practice in general.
