Appearance:
Arin's height is nothing he can brag about, as he stands at a small height of 4'8. He weighs only 93 pounds as well, so he is on the small side to say the least. Arin doesn't bother to keep his hair very tidy, resulting in his jet black hair standing on end and spiking up in every which way. His eyes are a very dark brown color, although some even mistake their dark color to be black.

Arin wears a dark grey undershirt with long sleeves, and has two thin white bands located just above his elbows wrapped around his arms. This is coupled with a bright red shirt above which features numerous yellow linear markings. Some of the yellow lines line the collar and center of his shirt, but some also curve along the side of his torso. The tail of the shirt hangs down somewhat, giving a cape-like illusion to it.
His pants are baggy and colored white, but they are coupled with a teal cloth wrapped around Arin's waist that is held in place by a brown belt. His shoes are the same dark grey color as his undershirt, but their rims are yellow. A thin yellow line also runs down their center, and a thin light grey strand of rope is wrapped around his ankle.
Height: 4'6
Character Type: Trainer
Personality:
+Optimistic +Instinctual + Loyal + Energetic + Cheerful | - Naive - Childish - Meddlesome - Blunt - Disorganized |
Arin can be described as outgoing, social, and very energetic. He seems to never run out of energy and always tries to find the good in things. Arin also is always very optimistic and can make rather blunt statements since he isn't afraid to blurt out whatever pops into his head. But he still has at least some common sense. Arin is also a big risk taker, and never leaves a chance to get something beneficial behind.
He follows his instincts and tends to come up with plans on the spot instead of carefully planning something out beforehand. He will commonly be the first person in a group to react to something and is overall a very social person. However, Arin may be a bit of a nuisance to others, namely adults who can't tolerate his childish personality. His curiosity tends to get the better of him, which usually gets him into trouble. But Arin will try and try again at something until he accomplishes his goal. Arin's not very good at keeping things tidy, which usually leaves his bag a mess and makes it hard for him to find his things.
Arin deeply cares for all of his Pokémon and friends. He would never leave someone close to him behind, even if they demand for him to leave. Sure, he might get a bit cowardly when alone, but Arin would push his fears aside for a close friend- although it won't always be easy for him to do so.
History: Born and raised in the Hoenn Region's Fortree City, Arin lived in a family of three, just consisting of himself and his parents. He lived a rather normal life with his parents. His mother usually stayed at their home to take care of him while he was an infant, she was also a Coordinator, while his father was usually out and about with the duties of a Pokémon Ranger. His father would occasionally bring home a wounded Pokémon he found in the wild to take care of for a short while, so their house would have at least one or two Pokémon running around inside. Even as an infant, Arin didn't mind the extra company. In fact, he would usually be found playing with the Pokémon since he really had nobody else to play with. He had no siblings or kids his age lived in the neighborhood.
By the time he was five years old, Arin got the chance to accompany his father on missions. His father had plenty of strong Pokémon, so protecting the toddler was not much of a problem. The real problem was keeping Arin out of trouble. He always ended up wandering into places he shouldn't stray towards out of curiosity, and his father usually had to pull him out of trouble. Sometimes the kid would try to cross over a precariously placed log above a river just to pick up a rock that looked cool. But Arin still enjoyed getting out and about more than anything. He loved flying with his father aboard the ranger's Swellow and adventuring around. His mother also taught him more about Pokémon in general, and taught him how their types played out, what kinds of moves they could use, and much more. Her main Pokémon was a giant Milotic that always accompanied her in Contest.
Several more years passed with this type of lifestyle, and Arin eventually had began to think about heading off on his own journey someday. Deciding to head off to the Sunford Region after seeing a convincing ad for it on TV. Get a free Pokemon and go out and fight bad guys to save the world and become the champion of the region? That was a chance Arin could not pass up. His father also let him borrow his Swellow just for a ride over to the region. Bidding his hometown goodbye, Arin headed off onto his own journey to the Sunford Region.
