Personality Andy is eager to observe the world around him and somewhat inquisitive. That inquisitiveness has made him very bright in terms of knowledge of nature but has also led to an unhealthy sense of danger because of it. Due to still being young, he is still a little naive, which results in him falling for pranks, such as April Fools pranks. However, when this does happen, he will see it as a learning experience and, in fact occasionally going along with it knowing full well that it’s a prank for the sake of humor. Andy has high morals and won't allow anything to happen to his friends, going out of his way to try and settle disputes between other locals, even though it's clearly none of his business, telling the truth whenever he does something wrong, or just being around for people that have had bad days. This does lead to him getting into some sticky situations, however, such as people ignoring Andy during a dispute, at which point he will leave them alone. Andy will start out shy to any person or pokèmon but will gradually warm up to them as time goes on and strive above most things to keep his friends happy, beware he will run away from anyone that lashes out at him. Battle-wise Andy favors being more on the defensive side, envisioning pokémon battles to be more like chess matches rather than matches of power preferring to pick his opponents apart with strategy instead. | ||
History Born into a quaint, moderately sized house in Sunhaven, Andy was an introvert at the start of his childhood, clinging mainly to his parents, Bob and Martha Richter for protection due to extreme shyness. This led to him being homeschooled and learning basic reading, writing, and math from them. The parents wanted him to make some friends with any other kids. Like most of the town perhaps, the lighthouse was their favorite area, it would also be where they met. They hoped he would make friends, however, if they tried to help him he would run away without saying a word with a very scared expression on his face, thus leading the local kids in Sunhhaven to label him an oddball, especially in this otherwise bright town, Thanks to the locals, Andy eventually heard of these mysterious creatures called pokemon; he and his parents were born during the Rapture and as such had no clue what they were talking about, for them, pokemon were remnants of fairy tales, That wouldn’t stop Andy, from trying to find and read books on these creatures when possible. Most of his childhood is spent with his parents That soon gave way to trying to learn to bake at age 15 as time moves on, this being helped by his two parents being a baker and doctor for the town. The baking side of things didn’t start to well as a attempt to make a cake nearly resulted in their house going ablaze. Thank gosh for fire extinguishers. Despite the big flub, it wouldn’t deter him from looking for various ingredients along the routes or doing odd jobs to buy stuff. Another few years and he would slowly get a bit more outgoing but things take a turn for the weird as while out on a stroll along route 15 he would find a pokeball, Andy looks to this device curiously, the desire to know more about pokemon never went away, but perhaps they were real after all thanks to this pokeball? | ||
Appearance Long Khaki pants that have quite a few pockets, with the leg sections going down to the sneakers, a light blue polo long sleeve shirt black sneakers with a Pikachu tail thunderbolt design. Andy also packed a pair of blue jeans, a thick sweater that's mainly gray with red sleeves and tan leather boots for Tundra-like areas. As long as the clothes are clean, Andy isn't one for fashion though he could resemble a walking kaleidoscope to some. Aside from that, he will always strive to look presentable |
