Rando

Rando (ランドシ Randoshi), nicknamed by his rival Hadrien, Bamboo Shoot (タケノコ Takenoko), is the main protagonist of the Pokémon Surge series, and the player character of all games in the series.
Rando is a boy living in the Firebrick City, next to his rival's house. His reckless behavior gives him the perfect Pokémon Trainer posture and a great challenger for many Trainers in the Dockan region. He always likes challenges and being the best Pokémon Trainer in the region, aiming for his goal to become the Pokémon Champion of the region.
When Rando gets aggressive and his Pokémon are weak during Pokémon battles, he enters the Ultra Trainer Mode ( Finite Trainer Mode), an ability introduced in the Pokémon Surge series, allowing his Pokémon triple their Attack, Sp. Attack and Speed, as well as doubling the damage of their attacks.
==Biography==
Rando is the son of well-known Pokémon Rangers from the Fiore Region: Lunick and Solana. However, he hated to be a Pokémon Ranger when he will become a teenager. He was a big fan of Cosmogs and had a poster with a Cosmog on it, which had survived all the way to the present time. When he was ten, he did not choose a starter Pokémon because of abuse. He had to choose his starter Pokémon at the age of thirteen (which surprised Lunick but made Solana sad), as he thought that he could catch himself a Pokémon when he could meet his rival Hadrien outside.

===Physical Traits===
====Pokémon Surge====
Rando is a medium-height young boy with spiky light brown hair, fair-tanned skin, olive green eyes, and a black lightning tatoo on the left side of his face. As for his attire, he uses to wear an orange sleeveless jacket with raised collar with a black stripe, a turquoise zipper and the lower side being black with two orange pockets; a white T-shirt underneath his sleeveless jacket, gray jeans with stitched-up patches, white-soled black shoes with an orange stripe crossing over the front, and black fingerless gloves with orange cuffs. He also wears a cap, which is orange with black front with an orange Poké Ball logo, and a white brim.
====Pokémon Surge 2====
In Pokémon Surge 2, Rando reappears with a new outfit, consisting of an orange sleeveless hoodie with a black pocket and a black T-shirt inside, blue denim jeans, black sneakers with white and orange accents, and black fingerless gloves with crimson-lake cuffs. His cap, however, stays the same as in the previous outfit.
====Pokémon Surge 3: Battle Freestyle====
In Pokémon Surge 3: Battle Freestyle, Rando's hair became slightly wilder, and his lightning tatoo curves in the downside, both of the changes were applied to him because of redesign. He now wears a black long-sleeved sweatshirt with a raised collar, a crimson-lake zipper, orange stripes underneath his arms, an orange pocket and a white T-shirt underneath, reddish-orange shorts with a black lightning bolt-shaped stripe on the sides, crimson-lake 3/4-lenght compression pants, plain white sneakers, and a reddish-orange rope wrapped on his right arm. He also has a new cap - a black one with an orange stripe and a black brim.
====Ultra Trainer====
When Rando becomes an Ultra Trainer, his hair's front become longer and more wilder, and the back of his hair becomes lit on an orange fire. Also, an orange fire replaces the cuffs of his gloves (fire appears in the cuffs in his Surge 3 outfit), and he has an angry expression.
===Personality===
Rando is a calm Pokémon Trainer who has a more hasty second side during Pokémon battling. His "hasty" side is indicated by his now slightly sharp eyes. When he loses a Pokémon battle, he uses to try very hard in battling wild Pokémon while in routes. As for his main travelling Pokémon Treesel, Rando is "more like a part of family" as he says.
Rando disklikes Pokémon Leagues as most professional Trainers do. Instead, he goes into the Dockan Champion Tournament and always defenses his Champion title against younger challengers. Rando, as the champion of the Dockan League, never gives up during Pokémon battles, more like before being the champion.
==Relationships==
===Treesel===
Treesel is Rando's best Pokémon friend and they will never seperate during their journeys around the Dockan region.  His Pokémon always resides on his shoulders unless sending it out during a Pokémon battle either against a trainer or a wild encounter. In the games, Rando characterizes his Pokémon as "the best partner in the Dockan region" - but he never characterizes it in anime series, for despite being a player character in his own right, it is often overshadowed by Rando.
Other Pokémon caught by him will often join Rando and Treesel, who have an unbroken bond, and the other Pokémon are usually paired up with Rando instead of Treesel. The two will stop any danger in the region and one of them will help each other in a big trouble.
===Hadrien===
Hadrien is Rando's rival. They started to be rivals when they were four. As Hadrien was eliminated in the Dockan Champion Cup's semi-finals, Rando learnt him that rivals are also players' enemies.
