Appearance

Slouch stands at a modest height and is relatively scrawny. He has unkempt, short to medium length brown hair and pale blue eyes which usually have bags under them due to lack of sleep. He hates wearing shorts.

Personality

Slouch is a quiet, unassuming, and occasionally absentminded person who dislikes being the centre of attention. He tries to be laid back, but can get flustered when placed outside of his comfort zone.

Highly aware of his faults, and sometimes leaning towards the self-deprecating, Slouch is liable to downplay his positive qualities and accomplishments. He does not consider himself a J-Team member.

Slouch's Pokémon are his closest and longest friends. He feels somewhat guilty for falling out of contact with his friends in the J-Team.

Trivia

• In his introduction, Slouch was an "NPC", stuck in place and only able to repeat one line of dialogue ("Hi! I like shorts! They're comfy and easy to wear!"). This was more Early Installment Weirdness / Big Lipped Alligator Moment than an actual plot point, however.
