Hometown: Jubilife City

Personality:

Quiet. That is the one quality you see in him at first. Apollo isn't one to speak unless spoken to, and even then he wouldn't have much to say in most situations. This is because he is very careful with his words. The Umbreon only says what needs to be said and nothing more, not wanting to make additional comments so he doesn't embarrass himself or offend whoever he's talking to. As a result he comes off as boring and one-dimensional. Not much to him. If only his outer appearance worked like what goes on inside his mind.

His mind is always at work. Always thinking. When alone he starts talking to himself, as even with his quiet nature he cannot handle complete silence to save his life. Behind that distant exterior of his is a 'mon who is very much alive. One who loves music with a passion. One who loves to listen to others' stories. One who just has likes and dislikes like everyone else. Though he has a hard time sharing these opinions, fearful of what the other person might think of him as a result.

History:

Born in the bustling city of Jubilife, Apollo was as free as one could be when one's father constantly travels for work while the mother encourages his use of his imagination. While soft-spoken and shy, the Eevee was a bright kid. The simplest of sounds amused him, not only because of the sound itself but also because of the colours that were created as a result. Birds chirping above comes in yellow. Pokemon's steps against the pavement are green. Even clapping his hands made a great shade of orange before fading away. No one thought it was unordinary at the time, him associating sound with colour. The mother thought he was just having fun playing pretend. He on the other hand thought it was normal. However, as he got older his use of his imagination to see these colours was no longer a viable excuse. All it took was the very mention of the fact that the sound of snapping was red in class for all eyes to fall on him.

Apollo was thrust into the spotlight when he used to stay unnoticed. What he thought was an everyday occurrence was actually a phenomenon to his peers in school. Many questions were asked. What colour does a bell ringing make? How about their own voices? Does the clicking of keys on a keyboard come in a range of colours or just one? He didn't mind answering all their inquiries, they're just curious after all. Though all this attention was draining his energy. He was growing tired. Eventually he started feeling anxious, thinking that maybe there are people out there who thought he was lying just to get attention, despite only seeing those who are excited about his 'ability'. He purposely avoided others just so he could breathe.

Ever since then he started having a hard time getting out of bed, let alone going to school. Even though the excitement died down, the very thought of having to go through all that again made him terrified. He even missed some days, telling his mother that he wasn't feeling well. He was glad she thought he was suffering from a bad cold. At first. Yet as time passed and she questioned his health more, Apollo felt horrible for lying to her. It was as if he was keeping a secret from the one person he trusted most. So after steeling his nerves, the small Eevee made his way to her room one night and told her everything. He thought he was going to get scolded for hiding this from her but no. Due to all his anxiety he forgot how understanding and supportive she was. He never felt so relieved. All that sense of dread lifted from him and as a result, he evolved to the Umbreon he was today. The next day his mother called his father. After explaining what happened, they agreed on finding a new school for their son.

It was when school ended for the year Apollo was told he was transferring to a different one. He understood why. Familiar faces in his old school would put him in anxiety again, so something new was what he needed. He wasn't sure if he would be as open in this 'St. Mortiel Academy' as he used to be but he would at least try. So an application was sent, and he could only hope his good grades were enough to get him in the prestigious academy.

Shortly after he arrived at the school, everyone died. Not literally of course. All the students were transformed into ghosts as a result of a pranking Mew from a rival school. The transformation lasted a month before everyone returned to their normal forms. Apollo never changed back however. He still questions why he stayed as a Frillish, though he's not worried about it oddly enough. He's more curious about the reasoning behind it than anything else.

Extras/Fun Facts:

• Apollo has chromesthesia, the ability to 'see sound'
• He's afraid of telling anyone this after what happened in his old school.
• Math is far from his favourite subject.
• He can play the piano.
• He has a pet Chatot named Falsetto (will do the pet meme later).
• Has a 'tapping' habit where he taps his fingers against any surface. He could be in class, he could be eating lunch, he could be trying to sleep. He just likes seeing that pop of colour whenever he does so.
• Apollo has a sketchbook and sketches from time to time. Tends to leave them black and white, with colours only coming from the sounds he 'sees'.
  
• Now a ghost, he's cold to the touch. He can still sense warmth but it never comes from him unless he uses Will-O-Wisp.
  
• He has better control of his new abilities, though he still turns invisible when panicked.
