I USED TO TRUST THE MEDIA TO TELL ME THE TRUTH

Donovan's birth was in the mist of a tragedy. Well, his birth was the tragedy.

Uncommon as it was, his mother died a terrible, awful and brutal death at the hands of giving birth to him. Bleeding out, gasping for breath, bawling her eyes out. Nevertheless she died. And Donovan Hayes Coyote was born from those ashes; bawling and wailing -- yet a feverish fire in his blue eyes. The Coyote family were like the animals they were named after: sly and always on the lookout for their next victim.

But Donovan... well, he was different. He was a handsome little devil, all Coyote men were attractive with long eyelashes and a well-built body. But, even though he was next in line to take "the throne", he was never really ready to do anything on anyone else's terms. He spent most of his childhood being spoiled by maids than learning how to actually rule Bellfield. Matter of fact, he didn't even go outside until he was ten years old. Had something to do with him throwing temper tantrums whenever his father even pushed him towards a door.

But at age ten, his first time coming outside and the sunshine sparkling on his unblemished cheeks, he got his first Pokemon. A young and recently hatched Starly he named Wilbur. He loved Wilbur who was always perched on his shoulder, chirping and cooing in his ear. Back then everything was simple -- he and Wilbur were the best of pals because they didn't train. But it all changed when Donovan turned thirteen and got his second Pokemon who belonged to his father: an overly aggressive Salamence named George.

George bit Donovan as he tried to be friends with it. And his love for Pokemon turned into a indescribable hatred. He still has the scars on his left arm to prove it.

However his father said no matter how much Donovan disliked them, he had to use them. And soon in his eyes they became toys, little playthings to treat how he wanted to treat them. Training them became like a chore, something he could care less for as he did so. For his twentieth birthday he received a Meowth as more of a pet and/or luxury item than something to train. However Donovan couldn't see past the scar on his arm nor the hate stored in his gut. So instead of taking care of it he simply abandoned it. His maids were told to take care of it.

Until he met her.

She was frightening beautiful and caring. Donovan feared her because whenever she entered a room, she had this way of walking: her head held high and her heels clacking loudly against the floor. Her aura emitted kindness and independence. Something Donovan wanted. He watched her from afar for two years. She'd simply walk along, not paying him any attention, her long hair waving in the wind that constantly swept up her locks. What horrified him the most were her eyes.

They showed the usually kindness and curiosity; but there was sadness there. As if someone as extinguished a light she held ever-so dear a long time ago. All he wanted and desired was to make her happy. To light back the fire in her eyes that had been dimmed. He couldn't stand being in love with her. Because he couldn't have her. Because she was a nobody and Donovan was a somebody. He wanted to give her the world. The universe.

But how could he give her the world when his was so small?

Just observing her from a distance filled his heart when joy. Enough caring from her cracked his stony heart. Enough beauty and intelligence she had gave him the strength to pick of a Pokeball without the familiar loathing that came with it. So he trained. And for three years he did nothing else. He remembered back then how bitter he was in this world. How he'd have to take the reigns of something he couldn't handle. Donovan became filled with passion; for his Pokemon, for his Rank within the Empire, and yes, for that mysterious woman too.

He wanted to become a different man so he could walk up to her and ask her on a date. It sounded so simple and dumb, but yes, he wanted to marry a woman he never he knew. He didn't know her name nor where she had come from. He just wanted to mend the broken heart she had. Donovan wanted desperately to help her.

But when his father passed away, old age some people had said, he had to become Bellfield's hope against the disgusting acts of tyranny of Spectre. In those despicable riots she had protested, and in a fit of horror and shock he realized that the woman he had loved for the past five years was one of them.

He didn't have time to mourn for the love he could not have for he had business to take care of. He was now a Noble, a high honor... he couldn't let it slip away from his grasp. He had to keep everything he held near and dear closer than ever. With Spectre now coming back on the horizon it was either train or get beaten.

I'm sure you know what he picked.



Name Wilbur.
Species Staraptor.
Gender Male.
Ability Intimidate.
Moveset Close Combat | Aerial Ace | Tackle | Brave Bird
Origin First Pokemon given on tenth birthday.
Personality Due to being Donovan's first ever Pokemon, he treats Wilbur slightly better than the rest of his team. Therefore, the bird feels as if he's entitled to be first used it battle. A tad bit spoiled and vain, always preening his feathers, Wilbur is very dominant, asserting himself as "leader" of the team.


Name George.
Species Salamence.
Gender Male.
Ability Moxie.
Moveset Leer | Dragon Breath | Headbutt | Crunch
Origin Second Pokemon that was a gift from his father.
Personality Aggressive and aloof, George is the only Pokemon Donovan hasn't truly tamed as of yet. He's an old Pokemon and usually is sleeping rather than training. His relationship with Donovan is strained at best.


Name Edna.
Species Persian.
Gender Female.
Ability Technician.
Moveset Power Gem | Taunt | Play Rough | Captivate.
Origin Given as more of a luxury pet but he doesn't believe Pokemon can be "pets" so he trains it.
Personality Sassy and abrasive, Edna thinks she's the best of the best and will straight up try to kick your butt if you think otherwise. She has a bitter rivalry with Wilbur due to this and they're always fighting about tedious things. Donovan always scolds her for being too mean to others but she honestly doesn't care.


Name Leia.
Species Lickilicky.
Gender Female.
Ability Cloud Nine.
Moveset Lick | Supersonic | Rollout | Power Whip.
Origin Given when he inherited his Noble status from his father.
Personality Silly and fun-loving, Leia is the glue of the team. Whenever Donovan is unavailable she takes charge to make sure Wilbur and Edna don't rip each others throats out when they train together. She plays a lot of pranks on George and gets along well with Haru. Donovan is very kind to her.


Name Haru.
Species Hariyama.
Gender Male.
Ability Thick Fat.
Moveset Arm Thrust | Belly Drum | Seismic Toss | Force Palm.
Origin Also given when he obtained his Noble status, meant to serve as some sort of a bodyguard.
Personality The silent and stoic one of the team, he is Donovan's loyal bodyguard and protector. He sees himself as a shield of the team in general, and seems to have some sort of a crush on Leia. He never makes a sound other than the occasional grunt.
