Name: Sven Barkley
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Alignment: Lawful Good
Timeline: Modern
Appearance: Sven has a slight athletic build and has brown eyes. His hair has been dyed orange and spiked. He wears dark blue jeans, a black shirt with a skull on it and a black leather motorcycle jacket. He wears a pair of motorcycle goggles and a white aviator's scarf. Has black fingerless rider's gloves with studded knuckles.
Personality: Sven is a bit cocky. He stubbornly fights to the bitter end and enjoys a good battle. Nonetheless, he's a shrewd man, and is a good teacher as well as a good student. He knows he's still learning, but he doesn't bother saying that out loud.
History: Sven was the sole protoge to an elderly gym leader from a small town in Hoenn known as Ivory Town. Unlike his teacher's conservative appearance and stereotypical "wise old man" mannerisms, Sven was a wild man. However, this did not stop the two from becoming very good friends. It's this kind of odd companionship that made their gym's badge have meaning, the old man would often say. Sven was an excellent student, and was to inherit the gym after the elderly trainer passed away. One day, a thief running from the authorities made his way past the gym. When he asked to hide in the establishment until the police went by, the gym leader adamantly refused. In a moment of desperation, the thief shot the gym leader. Later in the week, the elderly man died from the wounds the thief had given him. In his will, Sven was given official recognisation as the leader of the town gym. After that, those that sought Ivory Town's Gemini Badge had to make their way through Sven's fierce opposition.
Powers: Can accurately gauge an opposing trainer's skill level. This is a trick among gym leaders. (At least that's my theory. I mean, someone that starts off in Fushia City couldn't possibly face such fierce opposition from Koga, and someone that does Cereulean City last isn't going to have that easy of a win.)
Pokemon:
Has several, as he needs the appropriate team to fight a talented or green trainer. His normal team that he uses against veterns is:
Toxicroak / Poison/Fighting / Male
Empoleon / Water/Steel / Male
Exeggutor / Grass/Psychic / Male
Beedrill / Bug/Poison / Male
Charizard / Fire/Flying / Male
Magnezone / Electric/Steel / Genderless
A few of the other ones he has are:
Flygon / Dragon/Ground / Male
Honchkrow / Dark/Flying / Male
Snover / Ice/Grass / Male
Abomasnow / Ice/Grass / Male
Girafarig / Normal/Psychic / Male
Weapons: His gloves. The studs aren't just for decor, they are there for a reason.
Weakness: Has to mostly rely on his team to fight.
