I ended up making an Iruma trainer sprite

It’s based on his Heartbreaker arc design but without the second year accessories.

This look:

I just realized that I never explained the lore of the au at all. Anyway through the Pokémon world’s Iruma’s sheer inability to say no he ends up working for Team Rocket. He’s actually pretty good at battling but he absolutely sucks at being evil. So, at the beginning he’s working on one of Team Rocket’s schemes to hustle people with Magikarps. They put water proof paint on the Magikarps to make people think they are shiny and sell them.

After a scuffle with the resident Pokémon protagonist (so basically a walking child god) Ethan the scheme is busted and everyone is arrested. At the police station Sullivan arrives after Iruma’s parents have sold him. Considering that his options are go to jail or go with Sullivan and all of this gets cleared away he goes with Sullivan.

Much like canon Sullivan is the headmaster of a school which in this case is a Pokémon one. However…there is a bit of a twist. There’s some mafia au mixed in here actually 😅. Sullivan is actually the elderly leader of an old evil team and as his new grandson Iruma is to be his new successor. The elite Pokémon school is secretly helping train up the children of the criminal underworld of the Pokémon world.

Honestly I only really have thought of the basic premise. I dunno maybe Ethan will maybe a reappearance later.

His team at the beginning is in the early twenties. When he was a Rocket Grunt he owned three Pokémon: Kangaskhan, Gyarados, and Togepi. Gyarados is his strongest at the time because it’s Gyarados.

As for his Rowlet I was thinking that he receives it either from Sullivan or Bachiko. His first Pokémon was Kangaskhan which he became close with after she took care of him while he was left alone in the wild by his parents. He only ended up catching her so that she wouldn’t be caught by poachers. Even though he is now 14, Kangaskhan still treats him like he’s a baby. As for the Togepi he befriended one while he was being taken to various places to perform jobs.

Edit after some alterations to the sprite:

Actually, Guzman is his spanish name.

OH YEAH some other folks pointed that out too, makes sense since it's an irl Spanish name (probably why I see it around a lot!) 😳

(normally it's a surname, I've only seen it used as a first name once in a blue moon -- but also in the pokemon world it's pretty clear that naming conventions aren't the same lol)

My first ever pokemon was Totadile from HeartGold, who I named Pikachu. After doing so, it's become an inside joke to name any of the Feraligatr line after Pikachu. Funnily enough, the line got a Delta Species variant making them all electric type. However, they did not change the design at all. Since nowadays pokemon have been getting cool new designs, and I thought to make a fun electric type feraligatr!
