Full Name: Sorrel Arduinna
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Personality: Sorrel is a kind person deep down, and he likes nothing more than caring for others, but often his kindness has been taken advantage of. The pain of being used by others has caused him to be rather cautious towards other people when not familiar with them. Even with this moderate filter, he is a trusting person and likes to see the best in others, even when there's no good to see. It's hard for him to accept that some people are just bad and figures that those who do bad have reasons for doing so, and that the pain can be healed in the end.
With this comes a love of pokemon, many of which are well intentioned and kind anyway. He enjoys nothing more than a walk through the Ilex forest in spring when all of the pokemon are waking up from hibernation.
Aside from those things, Sorrel has always been something of a book worm and enjoys reading. History in particular has long been his favorite subject and he nurses a fledgling hobby of searching for historical artifacts in the areas he can get to, such as the Ruins of Alph, the Burnt Tower, and the Ilex forest.

Brief Bio: Sorrel was a carefree child and was often getting in trouble for wandering off into the forest. He had several older siblings, but most were off on their journies, so he never got to see them. He had never been too interested in going on a journey and thus elected to stay home and care for the pokemon in the forest instead, acting as a sort of guide for travelers that wanted to go through without being attacked on their way to Goldenrod City. Every now and then, Sorrel will take trips outside of the region in the interest of visiting museums or libraries and furthering his knowledge, but he always returns home again. It isn't until he finds the GS ball that this is thrown to the wayside. Since that time, Sorrel has taken to journeying, not in the interest of catching and battling pokemon as a trainer, but to find someone who knows what the GS Ball is, or information on it, since it seems far too important to not mean something.
How and Where Core was Found: The GS Ball was out in the Ilex forest, tarnished from age and sealed shut, coated in dirt, moss, and years worth of debris from the unkempt remains of the forest shrine, which was torn down long ago. Beaten and battered as it was, however, it was still made of gold and silver, and thus still very valuable. On one of his trips to find things buried in the forest, he ran across the GS Ball and kept it in order to clean it up and research later.
Why Legendary Picked Him/Her as a Guardian: Celebi felt Sorrel's love and need to care for others. They felt they were kindred spirits in how they care for the life in the forests and in their generally optimistic dispositions. If celebi couldn't be there for their forests, then they trusted Sorrel to protect them for it.
Legendary: Celebi
How the Core was Special to It: In truth, the GS ball was an unopenable pokeball to begin with, the inside is a reinforced sphere and it was a present to Celebi that was it's most treasured possession. Before the fall, Celebi kept it safe in its shrine, keeping it clean and shiny. It would get rather cross when it was stolen, which considering it was made of gold and silver, was more common than one might think. Still, what better than a nigh unbreakable object to hide in?
