Character: Professor Samuel Oak
Series: Pokemon Special
Character Age: 50's
Job: Pokemon Professor
Canon: The creator of the original Pokedex and a talented trainer in his own right, Professor Oak is the leading authority on pokemon, or Pocket Monsters if you prefer. What are pokemon? They're the creatures that inhabit his world that have unfathomable powers and mysteries within, each having their own personality and traits, willing to live alongside humans as long as we love and trust one another.
Known in his hometown of Pallet Town as an old grumpy man, Professor Oak quickly proves himself to be a fine judge of character and pretty nice otherwise after meeting a young man named Red, who has his own series of adventures which aren't of focus here. Oak's dream is to create an encyclopedia of every existing pokemon, a dream which his old rivals tend to look down upon - they see him as a shadow of his old self. You see, Oak is a very accomplished pokemon trainer himself, having won many a tournament himself and even old age hasn't made him lose his touch... for the most part at least. He may be old but he can still fight! This means, however, that he's still fairly quick witted and can think on his feet, able to make important judgments quickly even if he's not up to the physical exertion of training pokemon. He doesn't trust easily but he isn't against sending someone he just met out on a quest with huge goals on the belief that they might be a good person. Combine these traits and you get a man who tends to trust his instincts and respect those who see pokemon as equals.
Note: Rapidash is a unicorn pokemon with a flaming mane and tail. Pokemon also have 'types' which categorize their strengths and properties. A 'steel' type is typically a pokemon made of metal.
Sample Entry:
Ah, hello there! Are you a boy or a girl?
Ow! Okay, maybe that was a little insensitive, but I can't see you so well in the dark, you know. It doesn't really matter, it would just prevent a surprise later... what did you say your name was again? Ah yes, AAAAAA. Perhaps you could help me. You see, I was on my way to a swamp but suddenly I found myself in this farmland! I do hope I'm not trespassing but it is entirely fascinating, I haven't seen any of these pokemon species before... I digress. Could you direct me towards the organization known as C.F.U.D? They invited me to research a new set of pokemon they said were not recorded in any encyclopedia, and they wanted my personal opinion on the matter as they were giving them a bit of trouble, you see.
Oh? I'm already there? I remember being specifically told it was a marsh of some sort, this is a strange oversight! It is convenient for all of us, so I won't complain. Perhaps the species I've been seeing in these parts are the ones they had alerted me about in the first place! In that case, perhaps you could help me, AAAAAA. On my way here I had caught a wild Rapidash that caught my eye. Why? Well, here, you can see for yourself.
You can open your eyes! The fire isn't the intriguing part, it's the fact that the Rapidash's flames seem to emit the entire color spectrum, like a rainbow. In fact, if I didn't know better I'd say this one was a steel-type or it was wearing some sort of armor... It's quite the horse of a different color if I say so myself! To make matters worse, the poor girl seems to be injured in some manner, and simply won't have anything to do with me. Anyhow, it seems she's taken a liking to you, would you like to raise her for the time being? You will? Great! She wants to be with you, and make believe with you, and live in harmony, so it is your responsibility to take care of her for now, AAAAAA. There's no shame in asking if you need advice, as I'm going to be here a while, I think.
Oh, I haven't introduced myself, have I? My name is Oak, some call me the Pokemon Professor, and I'm one of the leading authorities on the subject of differential pokemon species. For the time being, I'll be a resident researcher and will appreciate any sorts of insights you could provide as a set of fresh eyes.
Your eyes aren't fresh? What nonsense.
