Here he is! I apologize for not uploading him sooner. This is Taiko the Machoke! An absolutely massive ex-wrestler who still believes he’s in his glory days.

Taiko used to be a very handsome and beefy Machoke with not an ounce of surplus fat on his body, just like any other Machoke. He was raised from an egg by a pro trainer, and trained every day to get stronger and stronger, soon entering the pro leagues of Pokémon World Wrestling. He was defeated his first year, but snagged the championship for the next three years afterwards!
However, on his fourth year, tragedy struck. In a match against his rival, Hariyama, Taiko broke his legs and foot in an accident. Of course, Hariyama never meant to do this, but the damage was done.
Taiko was out of the ring.
His trainer was devastated, not by Taiko being in pain, but since he was on bedrest, and Taiko couldn’t win him the prize money again this year. He was furious, but put on a false smile for his Machoke, who needed months to recover, and was slowly getting out of shape.
Months had passed by, when the Trainer happened upon a wild shiny Machoke, who had even more potential than Taiko, and he caught it.
More time passed, And Taiko finally recovered.. his trainer stopped visiting months ago, and he was getting worried. Now back on his feet, the Machoke looked towards the TV. It seemed that the PWW was starting again.. He saw his trainer on the screen, which brought confusion to the Pokémon. Taiko was bedridden for months, why was his trainer there..?
That’s when he saw him, the Shiny Machoke. Taiko would never forget what his master said after.
“This Machoke’s better in every way than the last! Don’t expect to see him again!”
He was distraught, believing his trainer had abandoned him. He ran outside, and saw his Pokéball on the ground, crushed. He knew it was his, it was a Premier Ball with a “M” scribbled onto it in marker.
Unsure of what to do, his head spinning, Taiko ran into the forests, and soon fell into a depression.
Wild Pokémon who were his fans gave him company, and soon, Taiko turned to eating whenever he liked, soon ballooning up into the blubbery land whale he is today.

Nowadays, he’s ready to prove himself to his old trainer by winning the Galarian Pokémon League, using his signature move, Belly Drum!
