"welcoming to the stage... um, what was your name again?" My name is Ruby Maple. Please try to remember it.
"well, then, hello! now, this might seem rude, but... would you mind telling me your gender?" This isn't hair, you know!? It's a HAT! And there is no other name fit for a male with beautiful pokemon than Ruby!
"sorry about that! now, can you tell me your age? birthdate? maybe even where you were born?" You sure ask a lot of questions, you know. -crosses arms- I am twenty years old. I was born July 2nd in Goldenrod City, Johto.
"i might have to get you a birthday present this year! that aside, with whom do you align yourself?" I will do what I believe is right, and although I prefer not to cause trouble, laws won't stop me from protecting my friends and pokemon! I am a true neutral, however, and go by my own morals. I side with Besser because they run things alright.
"so what's your occupation? got any special skills?" I am a coordinator, and specialize in pokemon contests. I can also sew, style, and design clothes, and I do photography too.
"now, are you a canon character? or an original character?" Certainly you must know me when you see me. I am a canon.
THE APPEARANCE" how can i fill the gap between you and me that cannot be shrunk?" "can you tell me the shortest description of yourself as you can?" I wear black and red clothes, have red eyes, and a white hat. A short, black-haired red-eyed coordinator with a white distinctive hat.
"you got a face claim? wanna share it with the world?" RUBY, POKEMON SPECIAL as RUBY MAPLE.
"what kind of clothing do you like best?" I make all of the outfits I wear. Along with my hat, I prefer a short sleeved shirt, and shorts over pants.... It's fashionable!! Don't mock me!!
"any defining physical traits?" Well, despite being male, I'm actually only as tall as Sapphire... Others say I'm thin. I say I'm just perfectly lean.
"what about the hair and the eyes?" -takes off hat- My hair is black, you see? Short, and well conditioned. And my eyes are red, from which I was named. -puts hat back on-
THE PERSONALITY" as i can't still put that into words honestly - i'm a born coward" "tell me a bit about how you act." I've been told I'm strong, brave, smart, a quick thinker, I have experience in fashion, I'm visually authentic, enthusiastic, competitive, caring, resilient, and calm. But Sapphire and a few others have told me that I'm judgmental, prejudiced, shallow, rude, selfish, conceited, over protective, rebellious, stubborn, a sissy, a clean freak, and obsessive, and I am so not obsessive! I just care about these things...
"hm... interesting. what are some things you like and don't like?" I love beautiful things, beautiful pokemon, fashion, clothes, and pokemon contests. I don't like battling, ugly pokemon, ugly things, or fighting. But Mimi was always beautiful on the inside, and the outside!
"what are some fears and goals you've developed over the years?" Uhh, fears... Like most people, I fear failure. Although I shouldn't need to fear it so much, I never want to lose a pokemon contest. Also, I can't help but fear for the safety of my friends... Oh, and goals... I plan on winning all of the contests here. Also, I'd like to find out exactly what happened to Team Imum's leaders. After all this is over, and all of my friends are safe, I'd like to go back home to Hoenn.
"got any quirks? and we all have some habits - what are your's?" I wear this hat to cover my scar most of the time, and I sometimes speak with a mic. Those are habits... but I've been told many times by others that I'm a clean freak. I also sew all my, my pokemons', and even Sapphire's costumes.
THE HISTORY" my love for you seems to overflow from my hands - to whom shall i give it over?" "now onto more... personal things. mind telling me who your parents were? any siblings?" My mother and father are still living in Hoenn. I have no siblings.
"anyone else of importance in your life?" -sigh- Sapphire was my childhood friend, and is still my best friend. Emerald is a member of our group, us being the Hoenn dex-holders. Also, I'll never forget Celebi who helped save Hoenn and the lives of many people, including my father.
"now, tell me about your past. don't leave out any details!" Ruby was actually born in Goldenrod City in Johto and lived there for most of his elementary school years. At that time, his father, Norman, was working to try to become a Gym leader. Once, Norman took his family to Hoen in his quest to become a Gym leader, where Ruby met Professor Birch's daughter, Sapphire. At a young age, Ruby, ironically, was more of a wild boy, who loved to battle and fight with his pokemon. Always recklessly getting himself into trouble and playing outside, Ruby was often seen with several scratches all over, and band aids on his knees and elbows. He was a typical young rascal of his age, as most young boys were. His father was a friend of Professor Birch, so Ruby often got to visit Sapphire while his father worked with the professor. Even then, the children were absolute opposites, as Sapphire at the time was more like a girl than Ruby is now, wearing pink frilly dresses and the sort, and avoiding rough, dirtying things like battling.
The two actually got along well even with their vast majority of differences. Ruby, the son of a soon-to-be Gym leader, was even then very skilled at battling with pokemon, and loved to show off his skills for Sapphire. It was one day that Ruby somehow managed to convince Sapphire to go outside where they played together all day long. That was how it was for a short, but precious time of Ruby's life. Then a Salamence appeared. Sapphire was terrified, so naturally, Show-Off Ruby stepped in to protect Sapphire with his pokemon. He did manage to fight it until it fled, but not with out receiving a violent head injury in the process. The whole ordeal was so violent that Sapphire could only sob "scary" over and over once it was over, and Ruby then began to become painfully aware of how violent and barbaric he had acted in front of his best friend, and vowed to become a more gentle person. He never wanted to make Sapphire cry again. He did not know that Sapphire also blamed herself for being weak, and had vowed to become a stronger person.
That was the major turning point of both of their lives. Later, it turns out that the Salamence Ruby had fought had broken into the place where the legendary pokemon, Rayquaza, was being held, setting it free. Ruby's father took the blame for the accident and was failed the gym leader test, unbeknownst to Ruby at the time. Ruby's father left for a long journey then to hunt down Rayquaza, having been banned from taking the Gym Leader Test for five years. Years later, Norman became the gym leader of Petalburg City in Hoenn, and moved his family to Hoenn on Ruby's eleventh birthday. Ruby, already in a bad relationship with his father due to his newly found love of contests and dislike for battles, something his father did not approve of, was angry at his father to his limits, and decided right then to run away in order to pursue his dream of winning all the Pokemon contests. It turns out, ironically, that his father was about to surprise him for his birthday by letting him go pursue his dream and do contests.
Alright, now I'm seriously going to stop going into detail before I narrate the entire story page by page, and if you want to know the details, you'll have to read the manga >:3
So Ruby and Sapphire met again, not remembering each other. Due to their differences, they set a goal of 80 days to see who could win all the pokemon contests or defeat all eight gyms of Hoenn first. Together, the two fought Team Magma and Team Aqua, and had many adventures. The two came to remember each other, and even confessed their feelings for each other. Together, they saved Hoenn from destruction, and later saved Hoenn a second time from Guile Hideout. Ruby came to terms with his father's real intentions, and everyone lived happily ever after-not.
Oh no, the happy days never last, do they? Well, Ruby and Sapphire never really came to terms with how to go about with their feelings, and the complications seemed to slowly but surely widen the gap between them. Ruby less frequently talked to Sapphire about his life, and the same went for Sapphire, and in all honesty, Ruby hated what was becoming of their relationship. Eventually, it got to the point where the two heroes let themselves be immersed in their own separate jobs and dreams. Sapphire moved to Lyeant for an opportunity to become a Gym leader, and Ruby, well...
Ruby continued to be the greatest Pokemon coordinator in all of Hoenn for a little while longer, until one day, he came home on news that his mother was attacked at home by a pokemon. His mother was terribly wounded, and it was only that Ruby managed to get there in time that he was able to get her to the hospital in time to save her. His father, Norman closed down the gym in order to find out who had done this, for the evidence was obvious that it was a planned attack by a pokemon trainer with a pokemon foreign to Hoenn. The investigation led to Ruby and his father chasing a few Imum grunts all the way to the edge of Hoenn, where a vicious battle ensued. Norman received an injury to his legs by the attack from the Imum grunt's Pinsir, so Ruby finished the battle, sending the foes fleeing into a submarine that had been prepared for a quick escape. With Norman unable to battle, Ruby quickly left Coco and Popo to protect his father while Norman's slowking carried him home, took Mimi and Zuzu, as he had left Nana and Ruru at home to protect his mother, and took off after the Imum grunts, swearing that he would stop them and bring them to justice.
Ruby almost didn't make it through the desperate over-sea chase, and it took everything he, Mimi, and Zuzu had to keep up on the criminals' trail. That was when he found himself in the Lyeant region, the home region of Team Imum. Ruby resumed his chase of the Team Imum members, but he soon discovered the enormity of this powerful organization, led by an even more powerful leader, and for the first time since almost losing to Team Aqua and Team Magma, Ruby found himself unable to stand up to this powerful organization. Still, as he found out, this wicked group was evil, and was attacking and killing many innocent people. What was most horrifying was that the team was targeting the Dex holders, and Sapphire was in the most danger. Team Imum already had begun attacking Ruby's family in order to get at him, and Ruby realized that nothing could stay the same as it was before.
Team Imum would attack and kill anyone to get what they wanted. That was when Ruby made the dreadful sacrifice for everyone he loved; to join Team Imum in hopes to stop them from within. It was a desperate gamble, but to Ruby, it was the only option to protect Sapphire, Norman and his mother. At first, naturally, the Imum leaders were suspicious of Ruby's offer, but, seeing the advantages of having a Dex holder in close proximity under the command of an Executive, they let him join. No one yet knew of Ruby's decision, not even Sapphire. But then a great battle waged against Team Imum, and Ruby was inevitably caught up in it. He however avoided battle as much as possible and sought to take advantage of the chaos to show his true intentions by seeking out Team Imum's leader and make sure that his friends were safe.
Things only got complicated from there. The fight raged to its peak, and then word got around that Team Imum was defeated. But there was no sign of the leader. Neither was there evidence of the leader's existence anywhere, so either she was dead, or alive somewhere. Ruby knew that the danger was not completely finished off with, and continued his quest to find Team Imum's leader and stop him or her from hurting his friends and family once and for all. Since then in the five years, Ruby has secretly placed himself amongst all the major action, though kept his actions subtle, and has joined the besser party as a lower member. The dirty solo work was not finished.
