Ryley falls around the height of 5’8’’. He normally has a serious look on his face, but he doesn’t really realize it, and it changes fairly easily. His hair often gets messy, despite his attempts at combing/brushing/whatevering. He prefers to wear a lighter t-shirt and a pair of jeans. Y’know, the ‘usual’. He doesn’t really care about appearance that much though, and prefers comfortable, practical clothes.

[color=fff200]Personality:[/color] 
Ryley is a very ‘down to earth’ type of guy. He can come off as sarcastic sometimes due to this. He won’t run away from the truth of things, even when things are rough. However, he’ll do what he can to change the ‘truth’ of matters if he doesn’t like it. Also, just because he faces the truth doesn’t mean he won’t lie. 

Ryley respects others’ opinions and ideas, as most of them have a good reason or cause behind them. Due to this, many people find him to be friendly. However, he tends to avoid people with ideas he doesn’t agree with, if possible. This may seem rude, but Ryley doesn’t want to argue others with strong beliefs, as he believes no one wins in those cases. 

Ryley enjoys the company of others, though he’s not that good at small talk. He’s better at having deep discussions. He may throw in a quick quip here or there in normal conversations, but overall he prefers to listen. 

[color=fff200]History:[/color] 
Ryley grew up in Unova. More specifically, Opelucid City (W/W2 version). His mother died only 6 months after he was born, so he grew up alone with his father. His father worked as an assistant to the town’s gym leader, Drayden. Due to this, Ryley learned a lot about dragon types, especially the legendary duo Reshiram and Zekrom. The idea of truth and ideals fighting always interested him, though it was slightly confusing. 

When he was 9 years old, his dad got laid off due to less trainers battling. He couldn’t find another job in the city, so they had to move from home sweet home. They ended up moving to Violet City, where his dad got a job maintaining Sprout Tower. Though the lore of Opelucid was great, the history of Sprout Tower, combined with the nearby Ruins of Alph managed to sate Ryley’s curiosity. 

Eventually, the wild pokemon’s aggressiveness became so bad that Ryley couldn’t travel to the Ruins alone. He became fairly agitated due to this, and wanted to do something. He tried asking questions around town, and soon found out that the wild pokemon everywhere were being more aggressive, but nobody knew exactly why. He decided he’d try to find out the source of the problem, and solve it. He got his dad’s approval fairly easily and signed up for a license. With equipment in hand, he headed out.
