Theo

"'I have...questions.' - Theo"Theo is one of the three main protagonists of Critical Ditto along with Kenny and Brandi. They are played by David.

They are nonbinary, and use they/them pronouns.

Theo is a most-learned member of the Church of SlaSlo. They are on a quest to to learn about some of the forbidden knowledge the Church is desperate to keep secret. This, more often than not, puts them directly at odds with the Church.

Theo is an I rank in the Church. They met Kenny in Rain Dance #1and are drawn to his dark powers. They decided to help him understand and control his powers while searching for more forbidden knowledge.

Theo has bonded with several Pokémon during their journey. They include:


 * Medicham the Medicham (Met prior to Rain Dance #1) Theo's partner Pokemon. The two chose each other at the Church's Kings Mock Ceremony.
 * Hillary the Swadloon (Met in Frenzy Plant, evolved in ???)

Characteristics

Wants/Needs
To help Kenny control his powers, and to find the King's Rock.

Background
Theo was born on February 29th. They grew up in a household that expected them to pursue being athletic, instead of pursuing academia, which their family discouraged them from doing.

Theo eventually fled to the Church where they were able to freely study and pursue knowledge.

On their first day, Theo met fellow Church member Adri Formonsk who quickly became their friend, but soon after became their rival. Theo's main occupation within the Church is to teach Pokemon battle techniques. Though the Church forbid the use or study of any "other-worldly" knowledge, Theo found they were able to secretly share their interest in the forbidden knowledge with their mentor Kanin.

Fears
That they won't be able to help Kenny with his powers, that they won't know the answer to something important.
