Series: Pokemon XY
Canon point: Post game, before the Looker side mission
Summary:



Calem is a silly and frivolous young man.  He loves having fun and trying new things and honestly doesn't mind if people think he's a little ridiculous.  He loves buying the latest fashions and sampling new gourmet cuisines, and doesn't mind dropping what some might feel is an insane amount of money on these kinds of things.  He doesn't care though.  He likes the nice things in life and if he has the spare money from a particularly good string of victories then he most certainly WILL treat himself to a fancy hotel suite and a new designer bag if he want to.  He's not a snob by any means though and if asked he'll simply reply that he works hard for his money so he should spend it as he sees fit.

Calem was raised by his mother, the famous Ryhorn Racer, Grace.  While he was born in Kalos and spent most of his life in various parts of it, he frequently traveled to other regions with his mother so she could participate in races and other events.  The longest he ever spent overseas was about a year in Unova when his mother was hired as a private Ryhorn riding tutor by a wealthy family.

He was always a very happy child and very outgoing.  He enjoys meeting new people, and despite being frequently uprooted by his mother's travels, he makes friends quite easily.  In fact it's probably because he used to move around so much that he learned to make friends so easily.  If he was shy about it he'd be alone all the time and that wouldn't be much fun at all.  It's much better to have fun with someone you might never see again then have no fun at all.  This sentiment has carried over to even his time as a trainer.  People he meets on the road or in pokemon centers are instantly friends.

Being exposed to the people of many different regions led him to taking an interest in fashion and fine cuisine very early on.  It was always fascinating to him how people from different places followed different trends and what was considered trendy and stylish in one region was considered a fashion crime in in another reason.  And it was constantly changing! It was always evolving, much like a pokemon.

When he was 16 his mother had finally decided to settle down in Vaniville permanently.  He hadn't been there even a day though and he was already ready to head off on a journey of his own.  He was eager to start his own adventure after accompanying his mother on so many of her own.  He made fast friends with the other kids of Vaniville who were heading out as well (despite disliking their nicknaming sense.  Big C? Really?).

He received his starter from Professor Sycamore and was thrilled of course.  However he didn't feel a terribly strong connection with the pokemon.  It was odd because he had always heard people tell him how their strongest connection was with their starter.  They made a decent team though and Calem just wondered if that feeling of connecting would come with time.  He's always good to his pokemon and spoils them all terribly.  His love of style and fashion extends even to them and he's learned to groom them himself (helpful for his Furfrou.  Her fur grows out fast and it was getting pretty pricey having to get her groomed every five days).

It wasn't until he first set foot on Route 5 though that he would meet his future true partner.  A Lucario that belonged to a trainer named Korrina.  It was like love at first sight! Or destiny at least.  The second they saw each other, both knew they were destined to fight and journey side by side.  It wasn't until some time later though, in the Tower of Mastery that He finally got to battle him.  After that fateful fight where they both experienced Mega Evolution for the first time they could not be separated.  Since then Lucario has been Calem's most faithful companion, his best friend.  It was like their souls had connected in that battle, and Calem finally understood that feeling of connection some trainers described.

He also has a great sense of justice and determination.  He never balked at Team Flare and showed no hesitation in taking them on.  Of course they might have initially instigated him by critiquing his outfit and calling him trash. Anyone wearing a SOLID RED SUIT has no business judging other people' clothes, clearly he had to teach them a lesson.  So for a little while he picked fights with their grunts purely out of spite because if there was ONE thing that bugs him it's people talking shit about him.  Seriously he's friendly to everyone, why you gotta be a dick?

Of course later he found plenty of more legitimate reasons to oppose them.  He's not entirely shallow.  He legitimately wants to see people happy and having fun and living their life to the fullest.  Team Flare kind of puts a kink in that ideal in so many ways.

Powers: He's pretty normal! But he does have pokemon!

I have listed his team here.

They'll be limited to Bastions three a day rule of course.  He also can connect with his Lucario and allow him to evolve to Mega Lucario (which basically makes him a more powerful pokemon and is a temporary evolution).  I kind of headcanon that mega evolution puts a strain on both pokemon and trainer and can really only be used once a day or it gets dangerous.  So I'll be adhering to that.

He also knows some totally sweet roller blade tricks.
Entry: He can find his own way to Bastion, either by skating or riding Gogoat or Talonflame.
