Personality
Many people might think when they look at Val, he is a punk or a goth by his looks or that he might even attack you for your money in the middle of the streets. But, no. Sadly, that if not Val. He won't take money unless he earns it, if he finds it on the streets it will stay on the streets. He is not greedy but won't share his money unless the people who need it need it. He does not want people to think that just because he is a Pokemorph he is helpless or will help anyone who asks because they have control over him.
Val does not drink it all the time but a great loss or things that really bring him down are called for a swig or two of whiskey. He tries his best not to do it anymore then he needs but there are times when he just needs it. He will start to drink more and more as he grows older unless someone is able to pull him out of the hole he has fallen into.
Val's vocabulary consists of, 'Man' and 'Dude' and 'That was sick' or more or less surfer lingo to some degree.
Val, in a way, thinks he is a hot-shot. That if he can cheat his way into Gym's to destroy there leaders in battle that he will be well known and change the thoughts people have of the Pokemorph race.
Appearance
Val takes after the looks of the creature that runs through his veins, the Mightyena. The first and easiest way to notice that Val is a Pokemorph is by the slender ears which are a cool grey color and have large black tufts sticking out of them. Second, is his short black tail and he thanks his DNA that his will never grow longer then that. Another thing, if you look at Val with everything removed but the important boxers you will notice his pale skin tan skin changes pigments near his hands, feet, and stomach; almost like a grey shade.
To hide these strange pigments on his hands, because wearing shoes and a shirt is an easy way to hide the change there, he wears gloves on his hands. Black leather gloves. The rest of his outfit is simple; a sweatshirt of grey, red, or black and a pair of dark blue jeans which are torn at the knee and covered in X patches of different colors and fabrics, a black leather belt with chains hanging from each side and a worn pair of red sneakers.
All his sweatshirt's have the same pattern, Val isn't one to change his style so he bought many of the same ones of many different colors, they all have a darker colored stripe that goes down from the neck and wraps around the bottom of the sweatshirt and one darker stripe on each sleeve. There is also a black Pokémon pattern on the left side of the sweatshirt. The sleeves are almost always pushed up to his elbows to show some skin until it fades into the black gloves.
Around his neck is a thick black chocker.
His hair is an cool grey [the natural color] that hangs around his face and appears to fade into the ears that stick out of his head. The center of his hair is naturally black making him look like a skunk. Above his face black bangs hang around his eyes and then his hair is gelled into noticeable spikes in an attempt to hide his ears better. The spikes follow to just the base of his ears where it changes into normal limp hair that hangs just above his shoulders.
Val's eyes look almost red in everyday light and in buildings from a distant, but looking up close you see they are a more natural amber-red color. Under his left eye is where the skin pigment faded into a black patch, but Val has tattooed over it to look like the black stripe under the Mightyena's eyes.
History
The history of Val goes far back into the history of the Hoenn region, hundred of years ago Val's bloodline crossed path with a royal king that had ruled at the time and has been forgotten in modern stories because what he did had shunned him from his people. Though the story is different from each person who dares talk about it, it all falls under the same terms. Once upon a time, the king had been wandering in the woods when he heard a cry for help and being a noble man, at the time, he rushed to the aid. The cry was from no human, though, it was from a monster [as people called it]. The monster was trapped in quicksand that a wild Pokémon had made and was sinking fast. This monster was clearly human but her features where different.
The king was shocked by her looks, nervous to help this monster who had ears and features of a canine Pokémon. She cried for help, well she sank deeper and deeper into the sand, gasping for breath as her face was starting to slip under. But, the king saved her. Pulled her from the sand. The king was memorized by her looks, falling in love after seeing how thankful the monster was. Leading her to his palace.
Long story short, he bred with her and she had a son. The son bore the ears of his mother. The mother had been hidden from the world until that day but once she had to give birth they needed a doctor to come and help. The doctor could not keep his mouth shut and it was hard to hide the child.
This bloodline weaved its way to Val's mother Kelly and another mixed blood line with Val's father Tucker. Tucker's morph was not as noticeable as Kelly's who had a small tail and nothing more. Tucker's features where easily hidden and so he seemed normal and was more accepted by the normal people.
They married in secret and had Val a year later. Kelly was disappointed how her son bore a tail and ears and how his skin changed colors on his hands, feet and stomach. Yet she loved him no less. She raised him at home most of the time, taking him in the park now and then to play with the children. Though she could hear the mother's complain from there seat on the other bench.
As Val grew his ears and tail grew as well, he would wobble down the hall making little growling sounds and attacking the toys he had on the floor.
Life flew by and next thing he knew, Val was in High school. Middle school and Elementary school where easy, people thought his ears and tail where cool and sweet but he was always treated differently then the others. High school was harder. Val felt left out and ended up dropping out in his second year. The same year his little sister was born, Esme.
Esme was not like val, her features where just ears and her hair was discolored to match the morph she was. Secretly Val grew jealous as he watched her grow.
Once Val turned twenty, and earned up enough money from working two jobs he bought a ticket to move away from his family and travel to Cheyenne. He wore his hood and a baggy sweatshirt to hide his morphed features. Once he arrived he had enough money to spare to buy a cheap apartment, in the Ghettos of Verona. He found himself a new job that payed just enough for him to make a living.
And a week before he turned twenty-one, Val ran into a Poochyena, now before this Val's ability to understand Pokémon was not possible. A stray would chatter something to him and he would not understand but when this Poochyena looked at him, it spoke. Val had to flick his ears to make sure but it did, "Food." It barked, and well Val rushed pass the creature kept yelling at him.
Val after gather up his spare cash after buying himself a birthday drink or two, stashed his money at his apartment so if anyone broke in well he was gone [which he knew was extremely possible] they could not take his money. He also told the manager that he would be sending bills to pay for everything as time went on.
Then he left, making his way to try his life out as a trainer.
