Backfire

My name's Backfire. I'm a four year old male Cyndaquil currently travelling with my trainer, Marcus (which is short for Marcellus). I usually tend to be a pretty nice guy. I usually don't get angry, but when I do, I go all out. I'm also rather emotional and I overreact a lot. I am currently in a relationship with the love of my life, Ralts.

History

I began life as an egg that Professor Elm discovered abandoned in the woods. The first four years of my life were spent in Professor Elm's lab, eagerly awaiting the day when I would finally be old enough to be chosen by a trainer that I would go with on a Pokemon adventure. With me in the lab were Chikorita, the creepy stalker who was always making advances toward me, much to my dismay, and Totodile, the stupid one who would try to eat anything, including me! After four years, I was finally old enough to go on a Pokemon journey with a trainer! I was chosen by a trainer named Marcus, and we boarded a plane to Unova, where his family was moving. On the plane, I made a good friend in a Wooper, who was on the plane to escape his old life with his abusive ex-trainer. I offered for him to join Marcus's team, but he declined. However, he showed up later at Marcus's new house, saying that he had reconsidered. Marcus accepted, of course, and Wooper became a part of the team! The next day, Marcus, Wooper, and I left his home to finally begin our Pokemon journey! Soon after this, Marcus caught the clumsy, overly orderly,  motherly Audino. We spent the night in Accumula. The next day I noticed a trash can moving. Upon inspection, I found a Ralts that was horriffically skinny and looked like she had been beaten! We rushed her to the Pokemon Center, where she underwent treatment. Thankfully, she survived, and she joined our team! She told us that she had been abused by her trainer, who had eventually left her in that trash can to die! After giving her a few days to recover, we were finally off again! By this point, I had developed a huge crush on Ralts. Ralts and I had become very good friends, and eventually, I built up the courage to confess to Ralts my love for her. Thankfully, she loved me back! I was incredibly happy. However, at this point, we were just friends who happened to be in love, and were not actually dating. So I finally built up the courage to ask her out. For our date, we went on a walk in the woods, where we ran into some poachers! However, Ralts managed to fight them off. The next day, I made an attempt at battling gym leader Cress at the Striaton Gym, though I was defeated. I am currently in Striaton City, preparing for my rematch with Cress.
