Glad to be here  :-)<br/><br/>For my character I was thinking of a mature housewife: Holly. Back when she was younger she set out on her own adventure to become a pokemon trainer. However early on in her travels she met her soon-to-be husband, and she ended up getting pregnant with their son soon after that. Unfortunately she had to give up being a trainer in order to settle down and start a family, though she still managed to find happiness as a stay at home mom, even if it wasn't her original plan for life. 18 years later her son has moved out (perhaps on his own adventure) and her husband works overseas in a different region, leaving her alone with a whole lot of time on her hands. It's then that her old passion for pokemon training sparks back up, realizing that she now had time to go out on that grand adventure she missed out on so long ago. It was, after all, her childhood dream, something she gave up for the sake of her family. Perhaps she really could become a good trainer, maybe even a champion...well, at the very least it beat sitting at home bored all day, everyone needs a hobby right?<br/><br/>I figured it'd be a fun twist to let the Poke-mom get to be the one who goes on the adventure for once. For her starter I was thinking that her original partner, who had effectively become the family pet since they settled down, is a bit too old and tired to go out on such an adventure, and so Holly decides to take one of it's children along instead. So I think some kind of youthful/baby pokemon would be a good fit, maybe a Munchlax, a Cleffa, a Mareep, or a Teddiursa or maybe something more atypical like a Slowpoke or a Spheal. I figured despite being older the combo of a young, inexperienced pokemon and almost 20 years of rustiness would put her right back at the level of a newbie.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">image ideas</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://i.imgur.com/lOkrGtS.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/yfVdWYh.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/vKObkmU.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/QW9zBUu.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/G78BF5d.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/MeoI9FE.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/x5Yc2TB.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/CF2WsxJ.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/WsMnqhN.jpg)(https://i.imgur.com/a7Y40tp.jpg)</div></div>
