Full Name: Thomas Logan Reede
Alias: Professor Reede
Age: 32
Occupation: Solving Practical Problems Pokemon Evolution Researcher
Appearance: Thomas is somewhere above short and somewhere below average, in the 5'6 range actually. He describes himself as 'compact'. Thomas is not a particularly bulky man either, he looks quite athletic without his hefty clothes on but doesn't look muscular. He weighs only 137lbs. His skin is a rough tan color and he looks his age, his skin marked with faint age lines and stress markers. His hair is jet black and combed back over his head, very straight and very well trimmed. His eyes are a hazel color.
For clothing, he wears what could arguably be described as 'Way too much'. First off, he wears a white suit. Not just a white suit, he wears a black button up shirt, a white tie around the neck, a pair of white dress pants, a white bulky suit jacket, a pair of, oddly, comfortably white tennis shoes and over it all a large, very heavy white coat that hangs down to his ankles, looking like a cross between a suit jacket and a trench coat. And to cap it all off, he wears a Fedora. A white fedora with a band of black cloth around it.
This is a picture. It is not made for me, by me or about Thomas specifically. It is a visual aid and is not copyrighted by me. It belongs to it's original owner.
Personality: While Thomas is not the single most pleasant individual in the world, he's actually quite a nice guy despite his overbearing appearance. He is usually fairly quiet when he doesn't want to really engage in conversation, but he is quite chatty when a topic he knows is brought up or when he meets someone interesting. He is fairly even tempered and is quite relaxed, rare to break into anger or anything more severe than a frown. At the same time however, he has an unwavering dedication to his research. All the bets are off if he's in the middle of his work, as he usually approaches it with a cool detachment from everything BUT his work, making him easy to upset during such times.

Pokemon:Galles the
Absol [
Pressure,
Male]
Galles is a passive, almost mute Absol that rarely seems to do anything of it's own accord. It stands by Thomas when out of it's Pokeball, it follows him around and his commands are quite happily followed, but otherwise it shows an almost impenetrable veil of apathy towards things.
Kragen the
Growlithe [
Flash Fire,
Male]
Kragen is a destructive and almost totally hyper Growlithe if ever there was one. Chewing, biting, scratching, running around, inflaming, combusting...Kragen is a walking property hazard. He is rarely let out of his Pokeball unless there is a battle or for his daily training/walks/etc. Despite his hyperactivity, he can usually settle down from a stern command by Thomas...Sometimes.
Ovae the
Eevee [
Adaptability,
Female]
It is almost criminal for a trainer as sour as Thomas can be to be accompanied by something this insanely cute. Ovae is an affectionate, happy Eevee that, if it is not sitting on Thomas's shoulder, is happily running circles around him or clinging to his coat, making cute sounds as he walks. It is rarely put into it's Pokeball simply because it is highly loyal and really, it's criminal to stuff that much cute into a dark space.
Gyagas the
Magikarp [
Swift Swim,
Male]
Like most Magikarp, Gyagas is somewhat dull and simple, content to roam bodies of water
attacking everything he can. Gyagas is a terror compacted into a rather unassuming package. Despite the fact that he is a Magikarp, Gyagas seems to not have gotten the memo about how tame and docile they are. He seems loyal to Thomas, but that's debatable considering that Thomas only really seems to bring him out for training.
Isabella the..
Feebas? [
Swift Swim,
Female]
How exactly Thomas keeps sane around Isabella is a debate left open. She is a spoiled, temperamental Feebas who will only swim in lukewarm or warm water, will only eat the finest of foods and refuses to train for more than an hour at a time. She also has to be let out of her Pokeball once every day or she sulks horribly, leading Thomas to have to carry inflatable pools for her.
Spender the
Shellder [
Shell Armor,
Male]
If Spender had to choose his own name, it would probably be 'Likes to bite everything'. Or possibly 'Horrible biting nightmare'. The point is, Spender clamps onto
anything. Hands, feet, faces, clothing, other Pokemon, small children, small animals, buildings...He literally does nothing but bite, bite and bite. Even in battle, he ignores all other commands and simply chomps at an enemy gleefully until one or the other is knocked out.
Boxed PokemonMandrake the
Nuzleaf [
Early Bird,
Male]
In a past life, Mandrake was a Machamp. Or at least thinks he was, anyway. When he is loose, he constantly engages in contests of skill and strength with other pokemon and humans nearby. This is only made worse in battle situations where he'll only follow Thomas' orders if it seems urgent. If not, he'll usually engage opponents larger than himself in entirely strength based battles...Usually to poor effect.
Bonny and Clyde the
Nidorans [
Rivalry (Both),
Female and Male]
These two are Thomas' most recent acquisitions to his team and the all around most fervently god-forsaken-annoying. When one is released, they act like a typical Nidoran. Territorial, quiet and somewhat aggressive, but basically loyal to Thomas and willing to follow orders. When both are in the same area, they act like raving lunatics on par with Kragen. Goring things, tackling each other and 'playing' usually involving Thomas going white in the face and requiring emergency visits to a Pokemon Center. Unfortunately, they are also most effect when paired together.
