My Pokemon OC Filio the Absol. He’s Ruki’s right hand man.

Filio the Absol

Species: Absol
Gender: Male
Height: 140 cm (20 cm taller than the default Absol)
Nature: Bold

Team Ruki member no. 3. Filio was once an evil Absol who terrorized travelers and Pokemon in the mountains he lived in, angry that his sister died. Ruki managed to stop and calm him, so he became Ruki’s loyal right hand man.

Personality

Never able to get over the death of his sister, Filio’s bitter and distrustful towards everyone. His mean personality remains as he continues to bully and pick on those who are weaker than him. He’s also known to be quite a womanizer and isn’t afraid to use dirty tricks during battle (taunting, attacking from behind, etc.). Even so, Filio has his own rules and moral compass. He’s absolutely loyal to Ruki, he’ll protect his friends and family with his life, and he won’t lay a hand on children. Being a responsible elder brother in the past, he can’t stand siblings who don’t get along and will feel the need to do something about it.

Filio’s Past

Filio used to be a kind Absol living peacefully with his little sister Filia in the forest ruins of a mountain. But one day, when Filia saved some humans from some wild Pokemon, the humans turned out to be poachers. Enticed by Filia’s soft fur, the poachers killed her and skinned her. When Filio arrived to save Filia, it was too late. Filio managed to get rid of the poachers, but he was horrified when he discovered that the other Pokemon in the forest, afraid of the poachers, didn’t try to save Filia despite her screams. Consumed by anger, Filio went berserk and attacked humans and Pokemon indiscriminately. Eventually, Ruki saw a bounty for Filio and managed to defeat and calm him. After Ruki used his aura to allow Filio to meet and say goodbye to Filia’s ghost, Filio swore his loyalty to Ruki.

Quirks

• Filio’s known as the ‘Fallen Angel’ to those who had fought him, owing to his cruel fighting style despite his beautiful appearance.
• Despite being loyal to Ruki, Filio scolds Ruki if he hurts Ruka’s feelings because he wants them to get along as brothers. Ruki’s important to Filio, so Filio regards Ruki’s family and friends as people he also needs to protect by extension.
• Filio sometimes calls Ruki ‘big bro’ (兄貴/aniki) and Alina ‘big sis’ (姉貴/aneki) like how gangsters call people with a higher rank than themselves.
• Of all his bully victims, Filio seems to enjoy picking on Zephyr the most as he can’t stand Zephyr’s innocence and selflessness, being the complete opposite of himself.
• Filio’s bracelet used to belong to Filia. He sits in silence to think about her sometimes.

Filia

Species: Absol
Gender: Female
Height: 120 cm (default Absol height)
Nature: Gentle

Filia is Filio’s little sister who has a gentle nature and is kind to those around her. Unfortunately, her kindness led to her demise when she rescued some poachers. Her death left a permanent mark in Filio’s heart and caused him to lose his trust in the world.
