Overal Personality:Valentine is your average teen-soon-to-be-young-adult. He isn't one for paperwork or work in general, so being able to work with his Pokemon makes work more likeable for him. Requesting for him to anything is often times a good choice. He follows through with everything he is asked to do, unless it has something to do with hospitals or Pokemon Centers. Yes, that means, when his Pokemon are injured or ill, he calls for the nurse to come to him. Some might just find that lazy, but his phobia gets the best of him.
Yoshi is more loyal than any canine Pokemon out there, and he will stick by a friend's side through thick and thin. Though, back to the dog thing... He has the attenion span of a dog on most days. If he sees something (like a random shiny object) or finds and event/subject boring, he will quickly change his attention to some random object he found on the ground. Heck, at times, he even finds a rock more interesting than people. He normally gives his full attention to Pokemon battles, however, no matter what is there to distract him. Of course, if something comes crashing down from the sky, he will, once again, get the attention span of a dog.
Yoshi is a generally great guy to hang out with and become friends with. He is open with just about everything, and he is always trying to find some way to keep a conversation from going dull. Of course, this sometimes brings up unwanted topics, so then he just drops it.

History:Yoshi is the firstborn of his family. His parents had just moved to Caster City when he was born, so his father had to work double time while his mother took care of him and unpacked. His early years were pretty simple. He was pretty popular in his nursery, and he always had high marks from the nursery lady. When he was moved into kindergarten, things were pretty much the same. First grade, however, was when he started having trouble.
There was this boy who transferred into his class during the middle of the year. The boy was on the chunky side, and he smelled like garbage. He was Yoshi's first bully. It started out as simple things, like stealing a crayon or a light shove to the side. However, it soon began getting worse. During recess, the boy started gathering a few of the other kids to be on his side. Some of said kids use to be his friends. They started ganging up on him, and they sometimes resorted to physical violence. He never told his parents about this. He was afraid they would become too worried over him. Near the end of the first grade, during another terrible recess, an 'angel' came to his rescue. Said angel was made of rock--a Roggenrola. Why a Boldore was out in the middle of the snow was beyond him.
The Roggenrola easily scared off the boys, who never bothered him again in fear of the Roggenrola. Yoshi and the little rock Pokemon instantly had a bond from that day on. His mother agreed to allow him to keep the Pokemon, thus making his school days safer.
A few years passed since then. At the age of ten, his Boldore had evolved into a Boldore. A few days after that, a new addition was added to his family. Ah, yes. He finally had a little sibling! His new sister was named Florine, and she was a little angel. Valentine didn't like not having all the attention drawn away from him, but he at least had the company of his Boldore. Yes, he never nicknamed the rock Pokemon. He was young, so naming it would have ended up with "Sparkles" or something like that.
At the age of eleven, his mother allowed him to start catching and training Pokemon. On his little trip, his father came with him to make sure he wouldn't get into trouble. The only downside to this was that his father fell off a cliff and died. Yeah, pretty pathetic...
Although he became a bit paranoid after that, he continued to catch a few Pokemon and bring them home to train. When he came back home, a year later, he had in his possession a Gigalith (he found a trainer willing to help him evolve his Boldore), a Loudred, a Pidgeotto, and a Snover. Because I am getting lazy, I am going to time skip.
At the age of fifteen, all of his Pokemon were fully evolved. He started hanging around the Challenge Arena of Caster City. He would always be at the arena, and Yoshi quickly befriended the head of it. It was a rarity to find him away from the Challenge Arena. He would watch all the battles, watch the head train, everything.
When he turned sixteen, the head of the arena decided it was time for him to retire (the man was pretty old, but he was still fun to hang out with). The Old Head, in search of a new Head for the arena, turned to Yoshi and asked him to take his place. He already knew his way around the arena for practically living there, so he was the best choice in the old man's eyes. He eagerly accepted. Now, he is seventeen, going on eighteen, and head of the Caster City Challenge Arena.THE END.
