Ori

"I can understand your pain-- It's a horrible feeling to be neglected." - Ori to Skrump
==General Info==
Ori Silva is a Pokémon Trainer from the Tandor region. Ori grew up in Bealbeach with their father Kellyn and mother Lucille before a tragic meltdown occurred at the nuclear power plant their mother worked at. With their mothers death Ori's father neglected them and sunk into a depression. Ori would have to deal with constant bullying and harassment as they were nonbinary in a region where gender identity had not fully been accepted yet.
Ori never wanted to become a trainer, they wanted to become a nuclear scientist like their mother. However they were forced onto their journey by professor Bamb'O and thus began the journey to become the champion of Tandor.

== Intermission: Skrump (Ori) ==
This intermission played during the 6th episode of Pokémon Uranium
The night was dark and damp. The rain hadn’t stopped pouring for hours and it made all the nearby wood near impossible to use for a fire, but through a little bit of patience and coaxing with the promise of dinner, Ori got their nuclear Baaschaf to get the fire roaring.
Ori pulled a bundle of things from their backpack, a tent to set up, some snacks, and a small can of beans to cook over the fire. They wanted to continue forward and reach Amatree Town, but it was too dark to continue through the dense forest. It was safer to set up camp and let their pokemon roam around.
Monazite wasn’t the only one out of their pokeball, Joceyln the Minyan was let out as well. The creature would snuggle up close to Ori as the beans cooked, taking in the warmth of the trainer as well as the campfire
“Minyan.” The small pokemon spoke in a relaxed and soothing tone.
Ori wrapped their arm around Joceyln and held them close like a living teddy bear. They turned their attention to Monazite.
“Come on Monazite, group hug.”
The nuclear Baaschaf snarled in their direction, while he was caught he was still very feral like a pet coyote.
“You're lost I guess.”
The night plays out slowly, Ori taking the can of beans from the fire and eating it themselves, while offering bites to Joceyln, who takes them happily, and Monazite, who takes them begrudgingly. When their stomach was satisfied they tossed the can behind them into the unknowns of the forest and curled up inside their sleeping bag.
“Goodnight you two.”
“Minyan!”
“Baaschaf…”
Ori tossed and turned for a while, unable to sleep, they felt an unnerving presence, as if someone was watching them, stalking them from the woods. They looked at the two pokemon they brought out, Minyan was fast asleep, but Monazite was wide awake. They stood up tall and proud, looking out into the sea of leaves and darkness. A metaphorical and literal spark flashed in Monazite’s eye, possibly caused by the radioactive exposure. He snarls and growls into the darkness, confirming Ori’s fears. They both could hear the sounds of rusted metal banging against one another, click, clack, click, clack. And right beside the metallic shuffle were monstrous footsteps, large stomps that made the ground near the two shake. Finally out from the bushes came a large metal object that landed in front of Monazite’s feet. A large spikey pokeball attached to a chain that leads back into the bushes. Monazite didn’t even flinch from the object, but Ori was unsure if that was due to actual strength and bravery, or a feral radioactive mind prioritizing survival over fear.
The monster made itself known, exposing itself to Monazite through a loud, ear piercing shriek before revealing itself. Its body was a locked up substitute doll floating in the air with a straightjacket around its body and a large metallic leash around its neck, tying it to the large pokeball with a keyhole lock, while a beast made of darkness and void spewed out of its mouth and legs. The body itself having no defining features except a mouth and fingers, shown with an orange glow 
“C H A I N I T E” it droned in a low demonic voice, orange vile dripping from its mouth and onto the grass, melting it into nothing but dirt.
Monazite took a fighting stance and prepared itself for battle, but Ori knew there was something else about this creature.
“Monazite heel!” they commanded, and for once Monazite listened without question. A very rare instance for the Baaschaf, but Ori could tell they felt the same way about this creature that they did. Ori climbed out from their sleeping bag and walked over to the creature slowly, it let out another screech but Ori kept themselves calm and composed.
“Shhhhhh, relax, I’m not here to hurt you.”
They extended their arm out to the creature with their fingers curled up, holding it in a similar way to a dog so the creature could get Ori’s scent. It growled at them but soon moved its head closer to the hand, not touching it but staying close to it.
“What kind of pokemon are you?” Ori asked, grabbing their Pokedex and scanning the pokemon.
“Chainite, the retribution pokemon, and the evolved form of linkite. A malicious and dangerous Pokémon, it seeks revenge against the trainer who abandoned it. Its shackles were reinforced in order to keep its violent nature under control.”
“I knew it. You thought I was them, didn't you?” Ori asked the pokemon. The creature looked up at Ori, not nodding or shaking its head, but simply staring at them.
“I can understand your pain. While I’m not dead I too was neglected. My mother is dead, my father cares more about the rangers than me, I was picked on and my one and only friend moved back home to Johto… It's a horrible feeling to be neglected.”
The creature tilted its head at Ori and then brought it back to keep staring at them.
“I’m not sure who left you like this. But there is one thing I can promise you.”
Ori held up their own Pokeball
“I will never treat you like that. And I promise one day we’ll find the one who did this to you. And there will be hell to pay.”
It felt like the world stood still for a moment, before the chainite brought its head and brushed it against Ori’s hand, accepting them as their new trainer.
Ori softly pulled their hand back.
“Do you have a name?”
The creature looked up to the night sky, revealing a name carved into its metal leash
“Skrump hmm? I like that. I promise to treat you well, Skrump.”
They raised their arm and threw their pokeball, catching Skrump with no issue.
Ori and Monazite looked at each other, not exchanging a word but knew what the other was thinking. Ori nodded at the Baaschaf, and they nodded right back.
In the end, when Ori went back to bed, they snuggled closely to the pokeball they just used, making sure the creature knew just how much they truly cared.
“There will be hell to pay.” Ori said again to themselves.
