» Personality: Hidon is a naturally aggressive, hot-headed Pokemon. He is easily angered and sometimes turns violent if angered enough. And this is accomplished rather easily due to his extremely high pride in himself. He aims to be the strongest there is, so he will not tolerate any mocking of his abilities. However, he will not harm Pokemon that he thinks is either defenseless or not up to his level. He will, however, accept challenges from anybody, no matter what level of strength or skill they are at. He will never run away from any physical challenge, even if it's apparently impossible. He has tremendous courage and self-confidence, but tends to lack the battle strength to back it up. He is not much of a thinker and will always charge head-first into the thick of things, head stuffed with the idea that he's practically unstoppable. He's also extremely stubborn and, once he has his mind set on something, not even Arceus himself will stop him from doing it (unless it is INCREDIBLY stupid). Or at least, that's what he likes to think.

» Likes:

Fighting - Fighting is Hidon's favorite activity...ever. He loves the rush of battle and the struggle for dominance. Nothing gives him more pleasure than fighting a powerful opponent. He will even randomly try to pick fights with complete strangers if he is bored.
Danger - Nothing (except for fighting) thrills him more than to be stuck in a dangerous situation. He thrives on danger, sometimes actively seeking it out. He absolutely loves having a story to tell later.
Proving himself/showing off - Hidon loves having the respect and admiration of others. So at any given opportunity, he will strive to prove his skills and show off to anybody he can.
Dominance - Hidon loves putting himself on top if he can. He loves the feeling of being the roughest, toughest guy around. And he'll beat anybody who is willing to fight back to demonstrate his dominance.
Playing the hero - As mentioned before, Hidon loves having the admiration of others. As such, he tries to play the hero in any situation he can. He jumps to anybody's rescue that he can find, sometimes even spouting clichés as he does.

» Dislikes:

Defeat - Hidon despises losing even more than your average. If he is defeated, be it in battle or otherwise, he will kick himself later for allowing himself to lose to anybody. He aims to be the strongest around and he can't do that if he's losing!
Boredom - Hidon hates being stuck with nothing to do. He always wants to be out on an adventure or in the middle of a good brawl. He actively seeks some kind of enjoyable activity.
Reading - Nothing is more boring to Hidon than staring at a book. He doesn't want to read about adventures, he wants to live them!
Cowards - "Fighters" that only battle with opponents that stand no chance against them, bullies, thieves or any kind of manipulative sort. He believes that any conlicts should be handled head-on and anybody acting in a sneaky or underhanded manner is not worth the air he breathes.
Jeers - The one thing that will tick Hidon off more than anything else is being insulted or mocked. He takes great pride in his abilities and anybody who makes fun of them enough will no doubt be seeing his fist coming at them shortly. And if there is nothing he can do about it, he simply shuts down and takes it as he feels he obviously deserves it. Thus, humiliation is a great way to keep him down.

» History: Hidon and his family, consisting of a Dragonite father and a Charizard mother, made their homes in a cavern within the Black Spear Mountain Range. The accomodations were mildly comfortable and Hidon found himself living a happy life. His parents would very often take him out exploring the mountains, so long as he continued to do as they said. This was something he looked forward to every day: hoping his parents would take him out again. He always loved seeing them work and seeing how powerful they were as well as their amazing teamwork. He was very proud to be their son. And when he one day learned that he had inherited his father's special move one day during a practice battle, he could not have been happier. He practiced the move, both with his parents and by himself, day in and day out until he finally mastered it. From then on, his father began to take him out into the mountains for training, since it was something that Hidon had come to desire over time while watching them battle.

Hidon lived the entirety of his early life in this manner. Going out with his father for training on a weekly basis, battling with other young Pokémon in the area and loving life with his family. One day, however, his father informed him of his family tradition. There was a reason for all of the training he had been doing, other than for recreation. His father told him that every Pokémon in his family has left home at a certain young age to make something of themselves. This tradition has helped keep the family strong and every member has always learned and improved on their own. Hidon, understanding and respecting his father's words, left home the next day with a loving farewell to his family. He brought with him enough supplies to make it to Grassveil Town. His father had told him that that was where he had started as a young boy and it was his recommendation to start his life here and figure something out.

Less than 24 hours later, he realized just how hard this was going to be. He had decided to spend his first night locally, so that if he needed anything, he knew that his family was nearby so that he could get help from them. Unfortunately, he wasn't given the chance. That night, he had let his guard down at night...and ended up meeting a Pokémon who had apparently wandered into the area, as he didn't recognize the Sneasel as a Pokémon that would frequent mountains like these and he'd never seen one before. He was jumped and more than pummeled by the Sneasel. The Sneasel prolonged the fight as much as he could, forcing him into positions that would be cruelly humiliating had there been other Pokémon to see it.

Eventually, one the Sneasel had finished having his fun, he told Hidon why he had attacked so viciously. As it turned out, both Hidon's and the Sneasel's father knew each other...and hated each other. The Sneasel had been hiding, lingering about and waiting for the day Hidon went out on his own just so that he could stomp him. And to make things worse...he had the nerve to talk smack about him and his dad. That angered Hidon and he struck back out of anger once more. But his angry retort was short-lived as the Sneasel quickly turned the tides again and knocked him flat on his tail, finally knocking him out for good. When he woke up, the Sneasel was gone and he was furious. He refused to return home after that, not wanting to run home to his father less than a full day after his leave. Especially not for losing to the son of the guy his dad was always actually better than. He was not going to embarrass his father's name by being weak. From this point on, he was not going to take any crap from anybody...not after all the things that Sneasel managed to get away with. With that decided, he rested for a short while to get his strength back and then set off for Grassveil.

It was during his first day in Grassveil that he learned about the renowned Grassveil Guild, which was home to brave adventurers who sought to help others and explore the land. Hidon did not have to think twice. Upon learning about it and finding out that the members were usually well-respected, he knew exactly what he wanted to do. An Exploration Team.... What better method could there possibly be to get stronger and prove his worth all at the same time? And better yet, being an explorer would probably make it easier to find that Sneasel again. But first...he would need to find somebody worthy of being his teammate....

Sorry, your Character Bio cannot be approved due to the following reasons:

1.) HISTORY/PERSONALITY There's no sign or reason for your character to be hot-headed and easily angered stated in his history. I can understand the pride and most of the rest of the personality, but I would expect a Pokemon raised by such a loving family to be much calmer and there to be more emphasis on him being quite happy. I understand your reasoning that the pride is the cause of the anger and hot-headedness, but I feel that's not explanation enough. Please try to give a secondary reasoning to his short temper and such.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to message any of the Secretaries. May it be through the Chatbox or through Private Messaging, we will tend to your concerns as soon as we can. Please fix your bio accordingly so that we may be able to approve it. Once you have completed your edits, either bump this thread or message us.

There we go. How's that? I added the third- and second-to-last paragraphs to maybe address that.

Basically...after that happened, he refuses to take crap from anybody anymore. He will NOT let himself embarrass his family name anymore than he already has. Nor will he let anybody else embarrass it.
