Name: Hashim bin Malik
Gender: Male
Species: Garchomp
Age: 21
Height: ~8 ft
Birthplace: Indigo City, USA
Occupation: College Student
Likes: Music (specifically soft rock), gaming & streaming, helping out at his dad’s cafe, tormenting micros interacting with micros
Dislikes: What he considers “vulgar music”, getting stressed out, being lectured by people, letting micros escape accidentally hurting micros.

Personality: Hashim (or Hash as his friends call him) is quite the chill guy to be around. When he’s not busy with college matters, you can find him chilling at the beach or his dad’s cafe, playing his guitar for all to hear. He’s a quite friendly and helpful guy, and it’s actually pretty difficult to upset him. However, if you’re a micro then you’ve likely encountered a more meaner and mischievous side to Hashim. He usually keeps this side of him hidden, but whenever he’s alone with a micro he can’t help but slip the little one into one of his shoes, as he absolutely loves the crunch the little ones make as he walks on them. If he feels frisky enough he might even slip one into another particular article of clothing, or even slip them under someone else’s feet.

Bio: Hashim was born as a second generation American after his father, Malik, moved to the country from Malaysia. The identity of his mother has always been a mystery, as discussing it with his father has always been an uncomfortable subject. All Hashim knows about her is that she was most likely a human, as his feet are notably different from that of his father. While his father has the common three toes with claws seen with other reptilian anthros, Hashim has humanoid feet with 5 non-clawed toes. Hashim grew up rather comfortably when compared to other kids in his position, largely thanks to the cafe his father was able to set up when he immigrated: the Mach Cafe. Growing up, he became very infatuated with music and eventually received a guitar for his birthday, and he hasn’t stopped playing it since. He eventually enrolled in the nearby Indigo University alongside his childhood friends to get a Bachelor of Arts in Music. Oftentimes you can find him streaming himself playing games with his friends, or relaxing and playing his guitar (occasionally showing off his grippers to boost viewer numbers). At a young age, Hashim developed a fascination with crushing bugs after watching his dad accidentally crush a moth that flew into his sandal. Since then, he’s spent a lot of his alone time having fun crushing bugs, and in recent years even upgraded to including micros in his fun times. While Hashim will often feign ignorance, it's just recommended that if you’re a micro, you might want to avoid being alone in a room with Hashim, as that calm and relaxed face might turn into something more sinister.

Introducing my next Pokemon character to my roster: Hashim! I acquired him a looong time ago, and initially had him near the back of the roster of characters to post, but a certain  darkzeus and his love of this character in particular had me move him up to be developed next. Credit to him as well, as he helped me develop Hashim's lore and personality~

Also I plan to have all my pokemon characters live in the same fictional city, and so far the name I'm going with is Indigo City, based somewhere in the US (to be decided).

Next up on the list: Hashim's dad!
