Mini-Biography
Name: Josh Daggert
Nickname: uh, Josh.
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Home Region: Kanto
Hometown: Cerulean City
Personality
Overall Personality: Josh is a cheerful and somewhat awkward man who never really thinks before he does things. As soon as he sets his mind to some goal, he goes all the length to achieve it. He is quite naive and might fall pray to the stupidest of traps at times. Despite this, he is quite popular at work, being a part time photographer at a studio in Saffron City as well as a part time freelancer for the biggest local newspaper.
Life Goals: To become famous and rich on his photographing. Which isn't set to happen very soon as he can't make nearly enough money for that from his current jobs. He is rather skilled at what he does, though.
View of Allies/Friends: Friends are people you can have fun with! People who you can force to come with you on various quests into the wilderness to capture pics of just that pokémon, who can carry bags for you and... Yeah, Josh isn't the most caring and thoughtful of friends. But he still is charming with his sillyness and persuasiveness so people accept him anyways.
View of Rivals/Enemies: Mostly he gets sad and disappointed in people rather than angry. If someone is mean to him, he is more likely to wonder what could have made them that mean in the first place than to go and try and get revenge. If an enemy said that "let's be friends now instead," Josh would probably believe them and feel happy about it. And probably get screwed.
View of Pokémon: Pokémon are really cool! Josh has seen a lot of them in his work and knows that some types and species are more difficult to handle than others. He sees them as conscious, clever beings that make great pets and work mates, but he doesn't really consider that they could even be more intelligent than humans when it comes to some things. That they can even be more human than humans. That is probably something he will learn the hard way.
Appearance
Face Claim: John Egbert (Homestuck)
Facial Appearance: (link here)
Body Appearance: (pic here) Josh is rather tall and not really muscular, rather he's quite thin. His complexion is bright without any freckles. Most can be seen in the picture, I hope.
Clothing:Since he refers to himself as a stylish photographer, he wears what he'd like to call stylish hipster clothing. Unconventional but, oh, so cool. He used to regret wearing glasses but now they are the final touch on his carelessly sophisticated look. Refer to the picture in "Body Appearance" for details on his clothing. he may put on a gray coat when needed, and he also has a blue umbrella in times of rain.
Accessories: A brown shoulder bag that holds most things, and his prized assortment of cameras. On the go, he doesn't bring a lot of them, but he has at least one decently large system camera, one compact and then he's got his PokéGear which he won in a competition at the newspaper some months ago. He has upgraded it a bit to contain a decent camera, of course.
Pokémon Journey
Party on Hand (Up To Six):
Name: Species/Nickname Cyndaquil / Syn
Gender: Female
Ability: Flash Fire
Move Set: Smokescreen, Ember, Quick Attack, Attract
How You Caught It: Syn was given to Josh by his parents when he was still a young teenager. He was supposed to go on a journey but he was still too weak and immature, so he didn't get along well with the pokémon. Instead of going on a journey, they stayed in town and just lived together. Over time, they grew to accept and even appreciate one another and when Josh got work in the next town, it went without saying that Syn would follow and help out.

History:
Josh led a fairly normal life as a child. He grew up in Cerulean City, Kanto, often traveling up to the Cerulean Cape to sail or play in the ocean and see water pokémon. That was where his love for photographing started, with him wanting to document what pokémon he saw there. Despite that, or maybe because they wanted someone to keep him dry and warm when he went swimming for too long, his parents gave him a fire type, Cyndaquil, as a present.
His father works with administrative stuff in Cerulean's PokéMart and his mother is a fashion blogger and designer who often travels to Saffron to partake in business and events there. His father fell for her one day when she went shopping in the Cerulean PokéMart and she found him so adorable that she couldn't resist falling in love even if most of her acquaintances regarded him to be "below" her.
Josh was fairly normal with normal to bad grades in school as he tended to doze off and be quite lazy at times, much rather wanting to get out and see the world than to sit around and do maths. He got his first job at a small local newspaper in Cerulean in his early teens, just writing some fun pages for youngsters. Then someone at the larger Saffron newspaper realized by chance that Josh had a talent for photographing.
In current times, Josh has accepted a challenge by a rivaling photographer who claimed that he could travel the world and get authentic pics of legendary pokémon. Josh didn't want to be any worse, so even though he only has one unevolved pokémon and little to no experience of battling, he now starts off in Kanto as an aspiring trainer, camera and Cyndaquil ready... Searching for legends that might be true.
