<spoiler=Sid>
Name: Sydney Hobbs

Age: 12

Appearance:<spoiler=Sydney> http://th02.deviantart.net/fs4/150/i/2004/237/d/a/Cold_but_not_Alone.jpg

Hometown: Violet City

Bio: For as long as he could remember he's been homeless, without a family, and hungry. He can't exactly remember where he came from or how he even got to Violet City but he has spent his last seven or so years in there. Throughout his life he's had to scavenge for food and takes regular abuse from the local children. As if digging through garbage cans isn't bad enough, the stones and verbal abuse doesn't help much for his self-esteem.
Several months ago, a Poochyena began following him around the town; watching him but keeping it's distance. When he would look up after turning a corner, there it was. When he would surface from the lake near Spout Tower (much to the local's displeasure), there it was. It has followed him in the rain, snow, hail, wind, and even the blistering heat.
He can usually be seen wandering near the pokemon center and scavenging in the Gym's dumpster.

Items: ---

Money: 0


Sid glanced from left to right, to make sure the coast was clear. He wasn't supposed to be behind the gym but he regularly came back because of the rich bounty that was usually in the dumpsters. Sometimes, if he was lucky, one of the trainers from inside would throw something they didn't need anymore like stale bread and the lake wasn't too far either so he could always get something to drink. As far as he knew he was the only homeless person in Violet City, so he had all the garbage and sleeping spots to himself.
The only person in town who'd ever shown him some kind of kindness was the nurse at the pokemon center. If there was an extra room, he'd have a place to sleep for the night; but if there were trainers there who needed the rooms because they had injured or sick pokemon in treatment, he would sleep outside near the ventilation shaft where the warm air came out. For the past few days he's been sleeping outside but he always managed to stay warm, he didn't know exactly why but he had a good idea.
He turned around and there it was just sitting there watching his every move, a wild Poochyena. It had always followed him around, keeping its distance but showing up in the middle of town to watch him. It just sat there, it's yellow eyes staring him down.

"You're back again? What do you want?" He asked the pokemon.

"Pooch!" It barked and ran back into the woods.

"We won a zephyr badge" said Chell. Dancing around, all excited like. "So where do we go from here, Because my vote is for CANDY MOUNTAIN."

"Well then, good for all of you. Great job everyone" Matt said as he stood up and stretched, the series of battles were rather exciting to watch... at first. But now he was glad they were over, he looked to his side and saw how Rojo was still asleep but Tenshi was passed out. "Alright then buddy, back into the ball you go" he muttered as he returned the Gligar to its pokeball.
"Well, as for what we're going to do I think you all should get your pokemon patched up a bit. Seems almost all of them took a beating, and even if they didnt its a little bit aways to Azalea Town, may want to stock up before we leave" he explained while doing a mental check on how much money he had left. Enough for now, but it wont do him much good if he continues like this and doesnt get any fresh income. He stepped outside into the open, it was now a good way into the morning, and it seemed to be the start of another nice day, seemingly oblivious to what had happened in recent times.

After what seemed like ages of training against Hoothoots, Eric walked confidently towards the gym.

I'm ready for you now Falkner!

My vacation was great. I've been putting off getting back to this but here I am.

Darrel grinned as he stepped out into the fresh air, the stupid grin that he had made his trademark back on his face. He had let Puck and Spike out of their Pokeballs to stretch their legs on the way to the Pokemon Center. Although Spike was in poor condition, he took full advantage of the opportunity to soak in some sunshine. He walked alongside Matt and the others, admiring his new Zephyr badge. "So," he said. "we've taken the first step. Gonna be a long ride from here, isn't it?"

There wasn't anything in the dumpsters behind the gym but Pokemon food and Poochyena didn't come back for some odd reason. He wasn't surprised at his misfortune, he hadn't eaten in a little over two days. But that was part if being alone, you had to fend for yourself and Sid managed to do it quite well for the past years.
He desperately wanted to get back to the pokemon center so he could see if the travelers were gone yet. He stood outside the big sliding doors and shook his head.

"Later tonight." he grumbled and sat against the wall with his knees touching his chin and his hands trying to get his feet warm.

Lily clutched the money tightly in her hand, experiencing the sweet taste of victory once again. "Thanks, Falkner..." she murmured to herself, staring at the Zephyr Badge she had just received. She was ecstatic. It was one major roadblock out of her way. She had just beaten her first Gym! Now she only had seven more to go before she had her shot at winning it all.

Now, her business was done in this city. She no longer needed to waste her time here. She could now make her way to Ecruteak, where she could obtain her legendary Pokemon and go on to win it all.

"Well, everyone... I guess this is goodbye for me!" She looked around at them all with her smile on her face. "Its been great, really. Especially..." she paused for a moment, and looked the the owner of the friendly Bagon. "Thank you so much for dinner, Jason. I promise, someday, I will hunt you down and pay you back every penny, plus interest." She hugged him happily. "And you, Matt..." she directed her focus to her former battle partner. "I can't thank you enough for helping me in the tower yesterday. You're the best Matt." she hugged him as well.

"Goodbye, guys!" Lily waved as she walked off. "Maybe I'll see some of you at the Pokemon League!"

And with that, she was gone.

Lily, finally on her own again, made her way to the Pokemart. If she was going to catch these Pokemon that she wanted, she needed Pokeballs. Walking in, she quickly nabbed five off of the shelf, and a couple of power bars, low calorie, of course, for she needed to stay in shape. She dropped them on the table and paid [WHATEVER PRICE ZIRAT TELLS ME] begrudgingly. She didn't want to give the precious money that she did have away. She thanked the cashier and left, remembering there was one last thing she had to do before she left Violet City. She began her way back to the Bellsprout Tower.

On her way to her destination, Lily passed the Gym yet again. She looked over the plain solid walls as she was passing, glad that she wouldn't be seeing them again. Suddenly, something caught her eye as she looked over the walls.

There was a boy huddled up against the Gym. He was small and gaunt, and his untrimmed, dirty brown hair dangled over his grimy face. Rags covered his body rather than actual clothes. He only looked like he was ten years old. 'Too young...' Lily thought, 'He's too young to live like this...' She walked up to him and barked at him, "Hey, boy, what are you doing here?" He then looked up and stared her dead in the eyes.

Now was the first time Lily had seen his eyes. The urchin's eyes were red. But they weren't just bloodshot, no, his irises were redder than roses. Lily took a second to glance at her sleeve, and noticed that it was the same color as his eyes. She gasped slightly, almost unnoticeably, at them. 'He's too poor too afford colored contacts... But that can't be his natural eye color, can it?'

Lily regained her thoughts once again and stared at the street rat, who was dead silent. "Hey, when did you last eat?" she asked curtly. Once again, nothing but the blood red eyes answered her. She unwrapped one of her power bars and moved to sit down next to him. "You look really hungry," she stated simply. "Eat this." She gave him the bar.

"So, Mr. Silent, what's your name, and where are you parents?" Lily turned to him, concerned that what she suspected was true.

Jason sighed, accepting the hug and assurance from Lily that she would pay him back someday. He sighed, leaving the others in the gym to collect their badges, and walked out into the town again. He released his Bagon, letting it stretch its legs before being put back in its Pokeball for the trip to Azalea Town... back to were he had just come from.

Jason watched as Bagon jumped around for a few minutes before starting towards the Poke'Mart. Jason figured that with the money had received from Falkner he might as well buy some extra Pokeballs and some Potions for the journey ahead. He also needed to find something Bagon would like, considering he had done an excellent job during his gym battle.

Sid looked from the bar and back to the girl before wolfing half it down in one bite. He wasn't sure if this was an actual act of kindness or some attempt to get close enough to hurt him. He though hard about his answer but she did give him food so that desirved at least some honesty.
"Thanks for the food. My name's Sydney and I don't have parents." he mumbled.

Alex facepalmed at Chell's comment. "Chell... can we please... umm... like not kind start fights?" His face was bright red after what had happened in the gym. "Ummm so... can we just be friends?... I'd find it really nice..." Rhodes crawled on his shoulder and chittered at Steve. Both Alex and Rhodes smiled to them.

'No...' Lily's shoulders sunk as she heard the words leave Sydney's mouth. 'He doesn't have anyone in the world. He's on his own. No one is there to help him along if he's sad or hurt. He doesn't have a place to go at night when he's cold, or anywhere where he can always get a hot meal...'

'His life is worse than mine.' The thought rang through her head a number of times. Lily had never known anyone who had experienced a greater hell than what she had been through in her life. Feeling pity, she unwrapped another bar and gave it to him.

"So, Sydney... You ever get lonely, being all alone all the time?"

"Oh...Oh...yeah sure Alex, I get it, its cool, friends." she said quietly, in a very subdued tone. "Steve return." she said as the Munchlax went back in his pokeball.
"I'll see you later then Alex." she said a she walk, hunched over, away from the boy and off into the woods surrounding Violet City.

Once in the woods she sat down, by a tree and thought. Stupid Chell, of coarse he doesn't like you, your a worthless piece of stupid garbage. Who could ever like you, just go die or somethingProffessor Elm liked meNo Professor tolerated you, but he's dead now and its probably all your fault.
The Girl began to sob.

Alex sighed and punched himself lightly in the arm "Look what you did shithead, Try and help everyone become friends and you make it worse. I'll go apologize immediately. Rhodes return." He ran after her and found her under a tree. "Hey, Chell, baby. You ok?"

Matt turned to say something to some of the others who were still around, but he saw Alex say something to Chell, who then slunk off to the woods with him going right after her. Matt knew that this was one of the rare times when her perpetusl happy mood cracked, and just knew that Alex just said something that she took hard.
What the hell did you just say to her? he thought as he walked after her, wanting to try to help with whatever happened, Alex may be good with people, but he hasnt seen Chell like this before. Once he entered the woods it wasnt hard to find her, he could follow the sound of her crying. Eventualy he found her sitting down in front of a tree, her jumpsuit standing out in heavy contrast to the green of the forest.
He saw Alex approach and try to talk to her, but he just stayed back and out of sight to come in and help for when he gets over his head.

"No, I have Pooch. He's probably the only person that doesn't try to hurt me, besides Nurse Joy." He shook his head then tried to come up with something to change the subject of the conversation. He hated being the center of attention, and if travelers were paying more attention to a street rat than the actual city... the boys were probably going to beat him with sticks or worse, stone him while the adults just sat back and watched.

"For however long you plan on staying in Violet City, you can just call me Sid." He nervously chuckled.

Alex leaned on the tree next to her. His face was even redder than before. "Ummmm... Listen Chell... I think I have really worded what I just said wrongly... VERY WRONGLY. I'm not sure if this was what it was but yes, I want us all to be friends. But I want you and I to be more than friends. I couldn't tell you how many girls I've 'fell in love' with, but you, you're the only girl who has ever stayed in my mind for more than a minute. Even before you stole my first kiss and along with that planted you're calling card in my brain. If you really don't want to talk to me though... I can really understand. You're too good for a guy like me. A guy who doesn't even think of any possible way words can be misread. I'm so sorry, Chell. I'm so sorry..."

Alex slid down the tree. The rough bark ended up catching his shirt and getting caught. He yanked his shirt free. "Shit. I can't even slide down a tree cool. I'll shut up now but you also need to stop crying." he embraced her and pulled her into a passionate kiss. When Alex broke for breathe Chell could see that Alex was almost on the verge of crying himself. "Th-that was m-my first t-t-time giv-ving som-meone a k-kiss... Initiating i-it a-a-anyways..." He was shaking, terrified of her thinking he was lying. He pulled her into an embrace and started quietly weeping. "I don't want to loose you. Please don't let me loose you..."

He's lying He... The dark voice in Chell's head was silenced for the moment as she gave into Alex's kiss.
"S-So you do like me then, Alex?" she said with puppy dog eyes
