Juan

Juan (family name or surname is unknown) is the Hoenn Gym Leader of Sootopolis original timeline of WAAPT at the time of the Honen-2 Arc, succeeding Wallace who left the position to become the incumbent Hoenn Champion. In former times, he was the one who instructed and trained Wallace.

He is a man of art and style, and performs as a Coordinator and Trainer. He also leads some exhibitions with artistic performances of various kinds with Water-type Pokémon. He fancies himself a renaissance man and has the skills, the time and the elegance to back it up.

NPC Handlers include Venia Silente.

Team

Juan's team is specially created in WAAPT to not be right out a copy of Wallace's team as it is in the anime, and at the same time to draw more from Pokémon lines having a hint of sportmanship and artistry to them.

• His main partner is a Kingdra.
• A Poliwhirl named Teófilo after the boxer of the same name.
• A Starmie named Acamar after the namesake star name meaning "end of the river".
• A Samurott named Casados, after the actor he's compared to in the anime, and that is specializing in imitation and lip syncing.
