Name: Bob<br/>Age: 23<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Appearance: A very burly, musclebound individual, with long brown hair<br/><br/>styled into a mullet, and purple eyes.  He wears army pants and boots, but<br/><br/>no shirt, ever.  He also wears a pir of leather gloves with a fire symbol<br/><br/>on them.  He carries around a large sword, which he has named The Flare<br/><br/>Sword but uses it purely for ceremonial purposes and for showing off<br/><br/>during battles.<br/>Biography: Bob grew up on the Dugtrio Islands, but was originally born in the Kanto Region in Vermillion City.  As soon as he could walk and talk he had always loved playing with the local pokemon, as soon as he was old enough for his first Pokemon he decided that he would make it his goal to one day become a Gym Leader, and consequently he decided to aim for the fire gym on Ifrit Isle, making his choice of starter pokemon Charmander.  He made his way to Ifrit Isle and secured an apprenticeship with the current Gym Leader.  From then on he went out training, both with the Gym Leader and on his own, every day.  He found himself an Growlithe within the first couple of months, and a few months later he found an Eevee and, with it's permission, evolved it into a Flareon.  He continued to train as hard as he could, and his Pokemon put their all into the training due to the enormous charismatic aura he gave off.  When he was finally almost ready to take over as the Gym Leader, the Gym leader gave him his final challenge, he gave him a Chimchar, and told him that in order to take over as the Gym Leader he had to go out to the Sinnoh and Hoenn region and befriend a powerful Fire-type Pokemon, and earn it's trust.  So Bob headed off for his final challenge.  He was gone for nearly a year, and then one day he came back throwing open the doors of the gym and tossing out two Pokeballs which opened to reveal a Heatran, and a Ho-oh.  From that day on he took over as Gym Leader.<br/>Personality:  Very carefree, and confident.  He tends to taunt his<br/><br/>opponents in order to bring out their true strength.  But outside the<br/><br/>arena he is surprisingly gentle despite his burly apperance.<br/>Island: Ifrit<br/>Pokemon in Current Party & Nicknames:<br/>Arcanine<br/>Ho-oh<br/>Heatran<br/>Flareon<br/>Charizard-nicknamed Sarge<br/>Infernape<br/>
