Sparky the Pikachu

## Background

Sparky Tyranous is a Tier C resident of Firebend. He was born into a very loving couple, though not one destined to always be together. His father was a very intelligent Raichu named Augustus Tyranous, and his mother a Priestess named Rose Tyranous. Upon discovering that Augustus had cheated on Rose with a Quilava, Rose and the Quilava both gained a mutual hate for Augustus and quickly left him.

Sparky is the legitimate child of Augustus and Rose, and was born with a high intolerance to light. Sparky was legally blind by day, only able to see through specialized sunglasses during the day. Hunter the Typhlosion, though a bastard child, is Sparky's brother. Augustus was burdened to raise two children alone, Hunter being the superior seed due to his brother's disability. Though Sparky could barely see the day, he still cherished life around him. He grew to be very oblivious of the world's cruelties.

The Pichu had a very stunted development growing up. His father neglected him. In Augustus's eyes, Sparky was worthless, barely bothering to teach him anything as he was growing up. Hunter picked up the slack, acting as Sparky's father figure, since he deemed Augustus a bad father. Hunter cared for and educated Sparky. Despite having a deadbeat parent, Sparky still loved and admired his father, treating him more as a blessing than a curse.

One day, after he and his brother were out having a lesson about literature, Hunter spotted his father's corpse. His old man had suffered a heart attack, and he wasn't there to help in any way. At 14, the brothers were forced to bury their father, with Hunter setting fire to their family home. Though this symbolic gesture was meant to close that chapter of their lives, the fire was put out by a rain from the heavens. Hunter and Sparky had to live in Firebend without a father, and Sparky had to work through these emotions on his own.

From that day forward, Sparky became a local saint, helping others in need. Though he was blind, through inner strength and determination, he learned that he wasn't helpless. He trained every day with his brother, trying to become strong enough to join his rescue team. Unfortunately for Sparky, it wasn't enough. Due to Sparky's disability he would never be allowed to fight alongside his brother. In an act to prove he was capable of taking on the challenges with his brother, naive Sparky set off on a mission to capture a Teddiursa bandit. Unfortunately, since the poster set up for the bandit was outdated, the poor Pichu had to go up against a ruthless Ursaring. He lost his left ear at 15, and broke his rescue badge escaping. He had returned home in shambles, knowing how disappointed his brother would be. While he expected Hunter to ruthlessly berate him, he did no such thing. The Quilava understood his plight, and helped bandage him up. Hunter said he was proud to see Sparky be so brave in the face of death. Those words really ruminated within Sparky, securing his friendship with his brother and helping him evolve into a Pikachu, with half his ear growing back and giving him hope that he'll be normal someday. From then on the brothers trained on equal footing, though Hunter went down a few criminal bumps. He spent a lot of time making friends in his hometown of Firebend.

Sparky had become his own person by the time he was 18, self-sufficient and awfully cool to the folks around him. He had started his own rescue team with the supervision of the Firebend Mayor. Though to him it came with one condition, he had to have Hunter by his side. As long as he kept Hunter in check, the mayor could let the Quilava become an explorer again. The brothers become a very good rag-tag team, though Sparky was very concerned that his brother was becoming too unhinged.

On one bad day, he had discovered that his brother had become too careless and scored a bounty on his head. This transgression nearly ruined a planned day with his friend, Ajax the Charmander. The two boys got trapped in a dungeon in the search for rare berries, and had to fight their way out. Sparky discovered his bisexuality during this adventure, and took a minor injury that humbled him. This was the day he met Crystal the Oshawott, who helped aid their escape. Unfortunately this led to a terrible history with her. As soon as he was home safe, Crystal stole 1,000,000 pokedollars from Hunter's bank. Sparky was fine with it, but Hunter was not, which set up a rivalry between the two that has never extinguished.

In his later life, Sparky had grown past his cool persona, adopting to abandon the shades and accepting the dark world around him. At 22, he and Hunter's master convinced Hunter to leave the spa he was working at and travel the beautiful world. Mysteriously, the day after he left, Hunter had evolved into a Typhlosion, the reason as to why is a secret Sparky will carry to his grave. The brothers had elected to become traveling explorers for quite a while, leaving Firebend for good. With a heartfelt goodbye to his friend Ajax, he traveled as a freelance explorer.

At age 27, Hunter and Sparky decided to settle down in Everhope, after Sparky began to slow Hunter down in combat. Hunter continues his explorer work currently, along with some very risque adventures here and there. Unfortunately, Sparky knows he does not have a long time in this world, so he elected to retire early. His refusal to evolve into a Raichu is astonishing, being able to ward off the effects of thunderstones through sheer willpower, but if you ask Hunter, it's because he's hiding an everstone somewhere.

## Relationships

His bond with Hunter is unbreakable, having known him from the minute the two were born. Hunter's relationship with Sparky while inside his house is a mystery to others, as it is rumored to be a very sexual relationship, though it is unconfirmed whether or not the rumors are true. Sparky knows a lot about Hunter, even some unfortunate things he wishes Hunter knew. If prodded, Sparky will tell you that his brother should've never given his services to women in the spa, due to his high fertility. How Sparky knows this draws very strange conclusions to mind. During the night he usually cuddles his fire-type brother for warmth.

His relationship with Zoom the Servine and Crystal the Oshawott is the exact same. Sparky bears no ill will against the two, and can't really see a meaningful relationship sprouted amongst them. He refuses to invest time as their friend.

Ajax has been a wonderful friend since birth, and he cares very deeply for him. Though Sparky is currently weakened, he'd still defend the Charmander with his life. His relationship with him is both sexual and wholesome.

His relationship with most people is usually very wholesome, but he's easily prodded into a sexual relationship. His body often attracts males, but he does not mind at all.

## Personality

The Pikachu is unwittingly kind to everyone, almost in a naive way. He can't see the true beauty of every Pokemon, but he doesn't mind this. In his heart he knows that every pokemon is a unique and beautiful individual. In most situations he is the one trying to set a wholesome environment. He will refuse to talk about sex around most people and finds swearing abhorrent. If his brother swears, he usually yells "language." He's also very prone to playing with others. He feels that he's living proof that a disability cannot weigh you down with the right mindset.
