The Lab Assistant, Luke Wing

[tisari]

Name; Luke Wing.
Age; 19.
Gender; Male.
Species; Human.
Appearance; Luke is a pretty average-sized kid- he's about 5'11" and weighs 150 lbs. He's got large shoulders, and nice arms, as most girls would say if they saw him in a muscle shirt. He gets a good amount of regular exercise, so he doesn't have a 6 pack, but he also isn't chubby.
His hair is a sandy-blonde colour and is usually quite scruffy and messy, due to the fact that he's got no idea how to cut, style, or deal with it. If it really gets so long that it's in his face, he makes a trip to the hair stylist to get it trimmed back, but it seems to grow quite slow.
He has chestnut coloured brown eyes and a nice looking face. He's very approachable looking- partly because of his kind appearance, but also because he's far too awkward to be intimidating.

Personality; Luke is a pretty happy guy. He enjoys what he does as a Lab Assistant, and is hoping, in the future, to become a lab professor himself. He enjoys working with pokemon and stays outside as much as he possibly can. Despite his allergies, he enjoys it out there.
He's better with pokemon than with people, and he feels like he's known it all his life. They're the ones he can talk to, they can understand him, they're simple, nice, primal. People are the ones who are unpredictable with a bad history of being unnecessarily rude.
He's quite awkward when dealing with people. He's clumsy, so he has a tendency to laugh more than he should, trip over things, drop things, and make himself look incompetent at his job. However, were you to question him about pokemon, or test your knowledge with his, you'd be surprised. Even in battle, Luke's knowledge of pokemon is on par with the Professor. He's studied them all his life and knows his stuff.
He's a simple guy, and rather gullible. He has a tendency to skip over or not understand sarcasm, and sometimes has trouble making friends. Ironically, his fear of bugging them causes him to lose contact- and they figure he doesn't like them anymore.

History;

Luke was born in Sasqui City- he's been there all of his life. His dad had been a pokemon researcher, and his mom was constantly travelling as a pokemon breeder, all over the region. So, he grew up always learning more about pokemon and living with them, playing with them, and seeing pictures over the computer that his mom would send. So, of course, he thought travelling would be great- but his parents never thought it was a good idea for him.

They broke it to him kindly that he wasn't the most strict of people- even at 11 it would be tough for him to command a pokemon in battle, or think straight about what needed to be done. He knew the facts, but he had no experience, nor parents who knew anything about being a pokemon trainer in the first place. Being the person he was, he believed them. After all, he had asthma too and every time he went outside his allergies would come up. Only a little, but it was bad enough that he needed to have tissues with him. Of course, he needed a life- so his parents set him up with a job at the lab.

He knew everything he needed to know, after all. He'd gotten used to working with pokemon and he got along brilliantly with all types, even the most aggressive. There was something about him that always calmed them down, and he was always casual with them, no matter what sort of pokemon they were, from Tauros and Kanghaskan mothers to Oddish and Igglybuffs. It came naturally to him. So, of course, he got a job at the lab no time.

Now, he might have been good with pokemon, but not so good with people. Although he thought he was doing a terrible job, and he hated it whenever new trainers came in, he got used to them slowly but surely. True enough, he still tripped on his face half the time, but he learned not to care. Most of them were able to get a kick out of it, and it was something different than some monotone man giving them a pokeball. He earned a lot of money through the job, and saved it all up. What did he have to spend it on? Pokemon items? The lab supplied all of those. Clothes? He had a work uniform. Food? He still lived with his parents.
At 18 years old, a year ago, Luke moved out with the money he'd saved. He owns a small townhouse now in Sasqui City, where he lives with his pokemon team that he created from misfit pokemon at the lab, and a few he couldn't help but adopt from the adoption agency. His house is a mess, which is why he rarely invites anyone over.
A couple of times, he invited a girl over- but nothing came to fruition. More often than not, they were more interested in his position at the lab, or perhaps he was their "type"- until, of course, they actually got to know him. It only took about 10 minutes in his house for them to realise: he's a total dork.
Video game consoles, fast food, you name it. His smaller pokemon run freely in the house, while the larger ones he tends to keep at the lab. He tries to keep it clean, but what with the plethora of plants he brought from the laboratory fields, it seems that vines are starting to crawl up the walls. It is a jungle.


Other; yes I sorta re-made him, yes he's still the lovabl, dorky, clumsy, Luke Wing.
