Benji

Benji is a young kid with an unstable home life–his dad died a long time ago and his mom rarely acknowledges his presence. Benji spends a lot of time at or around Brennan and Ava’s house–they’ve all but adopted him at this point–and despite his shitty upbringing, he’s doing pretty well. He’s about what you’d expect out of a kid–excitable, high-energy, and always eager to have new adventures! He’s too young to take on the gym challenge, but Benji has been raising a few Pokemon of his own, with some help from Ava. He loves them so much, he would do anything for his Pokemon! He’s excited for the day he gets to go on a Pokemon journey for real, but until then, he sneaks along on whatever excursions Ava and/or Brennan are getting up to. It’s only led him into trouble like twice, it’s fine. He also considers Rosie something of a big sister figure; he looks up to her and loves when she plays with him or babysits him!
