If you would be so kid as to try an altshipping kid that would really cheer me up after a lousy few days 🥺 (if you're still doing them ofc!!)
Name: Morgan
Name Origin: "sea circle" after Lorelei's name deriving from a type of siren/mermaid, and her large number of dual Ice/Water types & after morganite, a type of pink beryl gemstone.
Gender: Male
General Appearance: Light pink hair and bright blue eyes. He's taller than both of his parents and built a bit more like Grandpa Joseph was back in the day. Can usually be found wearing any kind of sports jersey + shorts combo, big fan of locker room sandals and socks.
Personality: Himbo supreme. An all around cheerful and good-natured guy who's always happy to lend a hand and loves being out on a nice day playing around with the boys. Even if a lot of jokes go over his head, he's always ready to laugh alongside everyone else. Default expression is a slightly bewildered looking smile. "I don't get it, but that's totally rad bro!"
Special Talents: Has a surprisingly really good memory, especially for places and things he's seen before. Has a reputation as a walking field guide thanks to being able to point out and recite facts on any pokémon, flora, rocks, weather patterns... you name it! - that he might come across while hiking. He doesn't really see it as a big talent though and still regularly jokes about how he's not the sharpest tool in the shed.
Who They Like Better: It's a pretty even tie! He loves Steven for taking him out hiking and teaching him a lot of what he knows about the natural world, and loves Lorelei for spoiling him and always standing up for him and cheering him on (she is THE PTA mom she goes to every single one of his basketball games and cheers the loudest.)
Who They Take After More: Every single Stone gene went straight on through, he's got a lot of traits from both Steven and Joseph, but his love of cute, small pokémon was definitely thanks to Lorelei's influence.
Personal Headcanon: He's not a huge battler, so most of his pokémon are unevolved. His main partner is a Jigglypuff nicknamed Ponpon his parents helped him catch, as his most beloved plush he slept with growing up was of one (they're the same colors after all)! Ponpon is a surprisingly serious and fussy mon who mainly helps his trainer out by putting any aggressive wild pokémon they encounter to sleep (and has also been caught and scolded for trying to the same to his opponents on the court from the stands.)
