Mike - Male Nidoran

Age: Young (On human years 15-17)

History: Mike didn't have much opportunities in life; being born as an anomaly small nidoran, his family grew surprised and hugely uncomfortable with the news. They didn't abandon him, but excluded him from the rest of the herd. Having to hear so many hurtful comments, so many complaints and receiving zero to no help, made his head spin, his head ache... Gave him a wound on his heart that remained open for years.

Later than never, he decided to run away, not only to prove them wrong ,but also to escape from his mental prison. On the streets, it took time, but he learned tricks and developed skills: on a young age he was already robbing crates, old - and inattentive- pokemon, jumping from roof to roof, crawling between holes and digging escape routes. A fast and smart little thieve.

However, one day his job didn't work as planned, and searching on some old ship's crates, he was found by a strange Crawdaunt. After some discussions and a failed attempt to flee (which resolved on him ashamedly trying to use captivate on a male serperior, which he initially thought that was a female), the small boy was taken aboard, where his life started to change.

He stayed with the small crew, initially helping them peel fruits; but while receiving care and attention, his own protective wall began to crumble. The Crawdaunt soon became his friend, and later his "guardian". Russ, which the boy learned that was his name, took him between open arms, offering a claw when needed, teaching good manners at the same time that lectured about bad habits.
