Personality: Snobby and Cold are what usually people would say when they first meet and possibly having to known Epimetheus. He was the kind of person who does not like to smile and does hide his feelings through a blank stare and a bored expression. Whenever a person greets Epimetheus, let us to say in the morning, Epimetheus will just return the greet by just staring at the person and bows a little. He does not like to speak to other people unless being required and that's made other people to not approach him well. He is sometimes a social awkward person and would rather stay at home or in the dormitory and read books or even tend and talk to Pokemon in the forest than to socialize with other people. People thinks that he wouldn't talk to them because he will stutter and that will be very embarrassing but the truth is that he doesn't stutter and he either don't like talking to him/her or doesn't feel the need to.
Despite the rainy clouds below, fair and calm clouds will always be seen above it. Other than being a cold as ice whenever meeting people, deep down he was a really kind person. He always does his best to make someone feel good, even if he has to step down in order for the others to get what they wanted. Epimetheus will even let a strange person who is weak and pitiful inside his home to give rest and food to eat. That goes out to the Pokemon who are tired from battling or is seriously wounded and even that resists his kindness, he will keep on doing it tending to its needs. Though most of those actions will be done secretly and the absence of other human presence. Also, hen he sees that he has hurt the feelings of others because of his personality he will definitely think of ways to make amends - though not verbally of course - through the means of gifts or treats.
Strengths: Everyone is good at everything and Epimetheus is definitely proud and definitely will boast if he is extroverted that he is good at taking care of Pokemon and humans alike. He has learned of this when he read a book in his home about Human and Pokemon Care and actually liked the idea of doing so, but it would prove difficult because of his personality. Even his greatest dream is to become one of the renowned doctor who cures for the humans and Pokemon. He has an appropriate knowledge of how to tend to the small wounds and injuries but not that big enough to be at par with the professional doctors and nurses.
Aside from tending, he is also good at baking sweets or cakes. His family runs a business in the Petalburg City where the sell assortments of sweats and even a free tasting so that it will attract more customers. He was the only child left in the family since his sister, 20 year old has decided to make her own Pokemon adventure and left the family for 3 years and counting. Because of that, he was left with no choice but to help his family make their business grow. He has a depth knowledge in baking and even memorized some of their recipes and key ingredients to baking the sweetest delicacy tasted by human.
Lastly Epimetheus is good at understanding the feelings towards other Pokemon. Years of not having any conversations or interactions to human beings except for when accepting orders or to his parents and mostly directs his free time to Pokemon that are not really that ferocious - except for some scratches he got during his middle childhood that healed and disappeared - he has grown to understand, a little bit, of their feelings. Whenever a Pokemon feels hungry or angry or sad, Epimetheus will understand this, though not instantly, and will do anything to make that Pokemon happy. In reality, he has befriended some Pokemon in the forest nearby and those became really his friends.
Weaknesses: Even the glass that is incorporated with good materials are easily to break. Epimetheus has his huge weakness when it comes to obviously the needing people. His kindness towards them is great that he feels he has an obligation to help them and that exposes him to being easily taken advantage at. He has an unstable emotion where he usually the one ended up crying the hardest despite his cold personality. He can't easily move on from things and will always be reminded of those things until years will pass by and that's how it is easy for him to break.
Other than that, he was also bad at cooking. Baking yes, he was good at them but cooking was the complete opposite. Heck, he doesn't even know the basics of it and will result to ordering up or just eating the cup noodles or foods that can eaten right away after buying them from a store. He even once tried to cook as he thinks that he may overcome it and tried to do a simple carrot soup. When his parents watched him cooking afar they thought that he was doing better at cooking but from the perspective of Epimetheus, he doesn't have a clue to what he was doing. He was just putting different ingredients in the pan that resulted in a foul-smelling soup. Yet he wasn't discouraged at this because his parents were very happy that he tried.
Lastly, it was the weakness of getting near a bug-type Pokemon and walking or just simply being with many people. The bug-types really shake Epimetheus off but he does not despise the type, just plainly scared from those Pokemon. Even if his parents couldn't do anything to take out the fear of bug-type from the boy. Just seeing or getting close to a bug-type is enough to send the boy home crying. The weakness of being with many people developed when he was still very young. During his usual walks to the forest to meet the Pokémon living there, he tripped on a vine and fell off the ground. A bunch of kids passed by and saw what happened, they made fun of him and never helped. Epimetheus was embarrassed and the thought of the horrible laughs he gained from the other kids resounded whenever he goes near a bunch of humans.
Biography: Born as a second child from the loving couple Ryota and Hinata Shimada. Epimetheus live in a normal basic life in the Petalburg City located in the region of Hoenn. It was a fine weather when he was born but such weather could not change the personality of the child. Though the parents and even his sister Erika doesn't really put it into much thought. He has a loving parent and a sister who cared deeply for him. His parents owned a bakery store in heart of Petalburg where most trainers would pass so that they will have something to bring on to the next route. It was a successful business so far and just like the other businesses in the city it had its ups and downs.
Epimetheus had a wonderful relation to his sister Erika. While she was near to adulthood when she was born, she still plays with Epimetheus. Though they already noticed the actions of the child not interacting with other kids and would instead prefer being with the Pokémon and his family. They even tried to usher the kid to make friends with other children in community but he just can't much to their disappoint and so they let him do as what he pleases. Other than meeting with Pokémon and baking, he also grew fond of reading books especially the ones about hospitality and fantasy books. It is where his fascination of helping others started and the desire to adventure the world and meet other Pokémon flourished.
Some would say that Epimetheus' childhood was rather boring and not at all that exciting but if he can he woukd prove them wrong. Sure they might say like that but to him building a hospital using pillows was fun to him. He might even try to rescue a Pichu plushie through him using aĺl the things in the house, imagining them as doctor tools. His sister would often play with him when she's not in the business helping their family. She would pretend that she's a nurse. They had fun doing them. Even in the business she teaches him how to bake and that's how he became familiarized with baking. It would still be fresh to his memories when he was first introduced to the ingredients and the equipments to use for baking them and how he made a bunch of burnt cookies.
His drive to help human and Pokémon alike gets stronger when one day, he was walking through the woods when a yell of distress was heard. Minutes later a man being chased by two Poochyenas could be seen from afar. Fearing that he might get chased too, he climbed up a tree by reflex. He was successful in doing so but what he didn't know was that there was a Silcoon situated near a branch and when Epimetheus saw it, he waz startled. Losing his balance on one of the branches he started to fall. Barks could be heard getting near and near and the man passed Epimetheus and the Poochyena tried to attack Epimetheus. When they got near the man came rushing back and received the attack instead of him. A few scratches were made on him from the fall but wounds were found on the man. Getting back the momentum, the man grabbed Epimetheus since he was light and the two successfully outran the Poochyenas. The man returned him to his parents and tried to leave. But they insisted on keeping the man from leaving and have a check up in the nearest Center. From that day on Epimetheus vowed to help other people as well as Pokémon whenever they need help.
By the time of his sister departing from the house so that she could be on her own Pokémon adventure, tears were shed especially from Epimetheus. It was her only playmate aside from the Pokémon in the forest. Her sister promised that she will come back soon to play with him afterwards yet he had other plans. And that was to get the necessary information to catch up with her sister and help others who are in need along the way. Years after the adventure of her sister, Epimetheus was already eligible to enroll to a school and his mother thought of letting him go to a school in the Hoenn Region but his father thought of sending him to a school in the other region to make him more independent so that he will be ready for the Pokémon adventure when he graduates from that school. And that's how he arrived at Ordell Prep School.
Months before he will be taking a ride towards the new region where the school is located, Epimetheus was given by an Igglybuff that was a baby that his mother's Wigglytuff bore. He was actually glad and got to smile because he was given his first Pokémon to train and make it more stronger to help the other people who will be soon needing their help. Aside from that the two got acquianted fast and eventually their relationship blossomed to the point where they trusted each other. They baked a cake together and even taught her how to help other people based on his knowledge from a book. After that he named his Pokémon Eurikon because he thought that it will be a male version of his sister Erika.

Only thing we're confused on is the age of his sister. Please make sure its clear that she was 20 when she left home ^^
Glad to say that it is now APPROVED!
I will be posting your character in the students roster along with the House and room he will be assigned to.
Since you decided to bring your own pokemon you will have one full heart for your pokemon's friendship box.
You may add the following items to her inventory: ((Please track of your inventory at all times!))
- 2x - 10x - with Pokedex, Calling, Texting, Camera and Video Availability - 1x Poke'Dazzler
You may catch a pokemon, but please make sure to read over the Guides for more details about catching pokemon as well as other things in the guild including Club registrations.
In order to not make things confusing, you may say that your character has been attending the academy for at least two weeks meaning he is still new, but he more or less knows some things about the academy!
Right now it is the student's day off so enjoy RPing a free day!
EDIT: We had forgotten to give you a PokeDazzler upon your initial acceptance! For constancy's sake you may RP it as if you had received it with the other items given. Apologies for the mix-up!
You have 2 options to acquire a shiny Pokemon: by the Poke' Dazzler Device (one use) or wild encounter. Right now everyone is only allowed 2 shinies per character so be mindful when acquiring a shiny. Please read over this section in the rules for more information!
