Ledger Corneille

A screenshot of my OC Ledger standing on top of a roof at about a 3/4 angle to the camera. He's wearing a purple coat with a puffer vest over it. The vest is black at the top, but transitions to an orangish red at the bottom. He has hair pulled back which consists of alternating wide strands of orange and black, plus two tufts hanging down from the front middle. The left tuft is black and the right is orange. He has bright green eyes. For his bottom, he's wearing dark blue cargo pants, orange socks, and black and white skate shoes. His pose looks confident, with him holding his right hand up near the side of his head.

“Hot, cold, heavy, fragile… I can pretty much move anything anywhere!”

Main bio

It didn’t take much to convince Ledger to arrive in Lumiose as a tourist. Between the city’s music scene and the great times his friends seemed to be having, it was inevitable. And he was having a great time, too… at least, until a fight at a concert put him in hot water. While Ledger insisted he was trying to break things up, the situation put him in debt to a Rust Syndicate member, which then led to an “unpaid internship.” However, his efficiency eventually caught the eye of the organization’s boss…

While he and Corbeau didn’t meet on good terms, they seem to have hit it off anyway, and after (the closest Corbeau would really come to) an apology, Ledger admitted that he enjoyed working with Corbeau. The Rust Syndicate frequently calls on him for more subtle work. He specializes in deliveries, thanks to the help of his Flying-type Pokemon. His knowledge of the city’s streets rivals even the greatest of taxi drivers, to say nothing of his ability to glide across its roofs. Speed isn’t his only strength, though. His team of Pokemon is perfectly catered to the task, even picks that seem questionable at first glance. Corviknight, Talonflame, and Delibird are the obvious choices, but Meganium and Sableye also serve a key role in his operation. Lately, he’s been fond of using Sableye to create false walls in Lumiose’s sewers if he’s being followed.

Talonflame, nicknamed Solace, is Ledger’s main partner Pokemon. Their natures balance each other out; while Ledger is carefree and unbothered, Solace is quite finicky, and appears to serve as a voice of reason at times when Ledger’s trying to bite off more than he can chew.

Some might view him as “suspiciously wealthy,” but one night of observing his prowess in the Z-A Royale is enough to change their minds. While he doesn’t seem to appear all that often, he makes up for it with long winning streaks driven by always striking first. In fact, some have said that he never takes more than a night to earn a Challenger’s Ticket. He can come off as unmotivated when it comes to battles, too… at least until something catches his interest. Some even claim he singlehandedly fought off three members of the SBC in a row.
