Senator Kyle Armitage is a member of the Angelan Regional Senate and a member of the region's Elite 6. He was part of the senate faction that wanted to curtail Pokefutures' influence and the subsequent subcommittee that worked with PEFE to repurpose the company's remains.


Appearance

Senator Armitage is a grizzled and distinguished older gentleman of mixed ancestry with a stern yet wise face of a grandfatherly mentor. The good senator dresses in corporate casual, a longsleeve buttondown shirt and trousers.


Background

Although he was born and raised in Angela, his mother originated from Alola. His father had served as a town councilor for Portokali City. He is married and has one daughter.

He was once the gym leader of Portokali City before he ran for state senator. A staunch opponent of corporate interference in government, he became the de facto leader of a faction of state senators who secretly moved to curtail the political influence of Pokefutures. The revelation of the appalling treatment of Pokemon by the Pokefutures company by a group of teenage scientists was the moment he and his subcommittee needed to take down the Mega-Corp.

He along with the Senate Subcommittee on Corporate Noninterference placed formal control of the former Pokefutures' assets to PEFE for a decade, a controversial decision they planned to renew. He joined the Elite 6 when the position became available as an alternative to his golf games. Officially, it allows him to get to know the young electorate for his party, the Whigpublicrats. According to his wife and children, he just misses being the gym leader.


Personality

The good senator enjoyed a clean reputation in his career as a “bleeding heart” activist, yet possesses a keen sense of cunning, often relying on quick and unorthodox thinking to respond to things he did not anticipate. This was most apparent in his shrewd motions on the day the axe fell on Pokefutures and afterward, and is still something people can expect in his battle. He strongly believes in doing what needs to be done, protocol be damned, but tempers his idealism with pragmatic strategy.

Prior to battles, he would always engage in small talk, and those who battle him often feel like they’ve learned something important, regardless of the outcome of the battle. The lesson he lets people learn the most is “never underestimate your opponent.”


Relationships

He shares a friendly rivalry of sorts with the corporate bigwig and present Portokali City gym leader Polyxene Krete, once one of the representatives to the meeting that discussed the future of Pokefutures assets.

When asked if he still has PEFE, now a completely independent organization, on speed dial, he refused to comment.


Trivia

  • Senator Armitage received flak for perpetuating the stereotype of state senators in Angela, Unova, Alola, and Orre having Braviaries.
  • Each of his Pokémon have a cheesy political slogan.
  • Cincinnatus was rescued from near death from a Pokefutures facility as a Litleo.
