Hey! Thought it was about time I write up some adoptables for my characters, seeing as I've been on site for...what, two years?
None of these are particularly urgent, I just think they're fun concepts, and it'd be cute to see them picked up and played if anybody's interested!
MORGAN'S ADOPTABLES
Name: Ainoa ____ Adelaide (Middle name not needed but you can give her one if you want :P)
Age: Very late 20s-early 40s (there is some wiggle room haha)
Class: Any! Keep her history in mind, though :P
Gender: Female
Personality/Backstory: Morgan's mama!
For backstory it would be best to refer to Morgan's app, but aside what's mentioned there you have more or less free reign!
As a TL;DR- she moved to Oasis City with her Raticate with dreams of starting a garden center and got shut out by all of the other local businesses, which between that and the high living cost of the city drove her to poverty.
To make ends meet, she joined Team Rocket, and eventually volunteered for the gijinka program to get the funds to permanently move out of Oasis City...then got attached to her kid, which dashed all her plans.
In her later escape from TR she lost her Raticate and was badly poisoned and injured, and later had to convince her kid to leave her in Nefi Village so she could get medical treatment.
She eventually found her way back to her family's farm at Tavros Ridge, but with how badly she was poisoned she was left with chronic pain in her leg and difficulties walking to this day (which makes it very difficult for her to search for Morgan the way she'd like, and sometimes limits her from leaving home at all).
Her family doesn't know she was in Team Rocket or that her lost child is a gijinka, only that she was separated from them in a Team Rocket attack (which is technically true).
Her personality is also pretty free reign, but if you want to hear the ideas I had in mind here you go:
Appearance/extra details: Appearance-wise Ainoa is a little more set in stone! She's definitely dark-skinned and has textured hair, and I know for a fact she's gotta have a cane.
She walks with a limp, mostly, and though she doesn't necessarily get tired easy she's more one for distance than speed.
You don't have to fully adhere to what the sprite looks like, though, and if you have other ideas for her outfit, hair color, eye color, whatever then go for it!!
As with the other adoptable, whatever you do, I'm willing to offer sprite edits to make your vision complete!
Name: ____ Evergreen
Age: 30+
Class: Any! Except, uh. Team Rocket. That probably wouldn't go over well x)
Gender: Male, or at least goes by he/him!
Personality/Backstory/Appearance: It would also be a good idea to refer to Morgan's app/backstory for this, but this guy's mostly free to interpretation- yes, even in appearance, while with the other two I had vague ideas for appearance for him I straight up have nothing.
All I've got is he's the kind of guy who keeps fairly to himself, runs his little music shop in Mossrock City just for the love of it, doesn't have many Pokemon of his own and really enjoys befriending wild Pokemon (and leaving food, nesting supplies, etc).
Basically, the type of person who'd find a random kid and their Sableye in his shop in the middle of the night and have the first reaction of "Oh, do you want something to eat?" instead of getting mad or calling the authorities haha
He's not a very good liar, but gets by. If he were adopted, you could decide what reason he'd have for going for a starter and out on his own journey- maybe he's advertising for his shop? Maybe he's just finally decided to see what the fuss is about? Your call!
He's a sort of vague father figure for Morgan, and they generally tend to get along well, but their sometimes overly-serious and distrusting nature tends to conflict with his preference for a more easygoing way of life, so they butt heads. Either way, plotting opportunities there!
As with the others, offering sprite edits for anyone who decides to take him :P

Her personality is also pretty free reign, but if you want to hear the ideas I had in mind here you go:
- I'd like to think she's very clever and quick-witted. She probably has to be good at reading between the lines, considering she's where Morgan got that skill from, and I don't think she's very quick to make assumptions.
- She is not a quiet lady. She has volume control, of course, but she's got a powerful voice and she's not afraid to use it.
- She's not jaded, per se, or really that distrustful, but she probably does have a bit of a cynical side.
- I actually don't picture her as someone with very strong motherly instincts. She still very much treats children like children, but isn't really at all the nurturing type.
- I think she has a soft spot for 'ugly', 'pest', or 'unwanted' Pokemon- an idea I had for how she befriended her Raticate was that they had a Rattata infestation on her family's farm, and instead of driving them away she ended up befriending the whole colony (and now they live in the barn and help out in exchange for being fed properly).
