FRIDOLIN LORE RUNDOWN except it's not necessarily fleshed out yet and a lot of it still very " for plot reasons this happens " I think ( also forgive my terrible comma placing skills )
HAPPY FRIDOLIN !
Fridolin never joined team plasma , he was essentially raised with team plasma as part of his life . He's the grandson of one of the seven sages ( Bronius ) and never had any chance or reason to leave team plasma .
Of course he wasn't an active working member up until he was around 15 ( He's around 17 during the events of bw ) , though he was allowed to tag along with his parents to e.g. speeches by Ghetsis and whatnot .
Despite having been raised with it , Fridolin never cared much for team plasma's plans . He believes in their ideals , very much so , but the working aspect of it all never appealed to him . Throughout his time as a regular grunt most of his work assignments were to tag along with any of the sages and act as a sort of makeshift bodyguard for them , he never liked that . A lot of the time Fridolin would use his " authority " ( the excuse that he can do anything because of his ancestry ) to avoid work , sneaking off with his partner to do whatever , and avoid being told on by his coworkers . He was able to get away with this both because of his incredible skills as convincing his grandfather to excuse this " singular mishap " ( sobbing until he got his way ) or simply because it went unnoticed due to lack of reports .
He isn't exactly of much significance to the canon bw story , since he'd be mostly goofing off during all of it . During the " end " of bw's story , Fridolin is just scurrying to evade capture seeing as his parents ditched without him , and his grandfather is obviously with the other sages still . At some point throughout this , his first and partner pokemon , Reuniclus / Squishy is fatally wounded ! Meanwhile Fridolin , with the panic and chaos going on in his brain , manages to run himself straight into some fire type pokemon's attack . ( This is kinda very much some " for plot reasons " stuff until I figure it out properly )
He ends up with a group of other grunts , sticking with them and then , eventually , joining team neo plasma , because he seeks the comfort and stability of his old life .
I exaggerated when I wrote that he ran straight into that attack maybe ..
His time in team neo plasma is when he really gets indoctrinated with their goals and beliefs , or at least when this indoctrination starts translating into actual devotion to his job . He gets tossed right back into his old work , except this time more exclusively , as a " bodyguard " type thing for Z i n z o l i n .
Silly image
This time around even more vulnerable to manipulation , Fridolin quickly falls into the belief that things would've gone better for him during the fall of the initial team plasma if he'd " just done his job right " . His job as in being present to support the sages .
Fridolin basically forces himself into focusing entirely on his job and his " obligations to team plasma " . He feels he has to make up for all his negligence in the past , believing anything he used to do , or the people he was close to , to be a distraction .
Fridolin is put into somewhat of a position of authority , or at least that's the pretend of it all , he has the authority but he was pretty much only given his position to put more pressure on him and therefore heighten his wish for good performance . ( Is this too much inspired by N ?? ) His rank isn't much more than , like I mentioned , personal bodyguard , but in front of him it's put on a pedestal and made out to be a position in which he has to perform perfectly , unless he wants everything to crumble and fail .
All his joy and whimsy gone !
I have yet to even try and figure out what's up with post b2w2 Fridolin , since I'm still trying to properly work out all of his established lore and whatnot , but I'll get there eventually !! Wrote this impulsively with an unethical lack of sleep , nvm spelling mistakes or anything like that . πΏπΏπΏ
AU World building going well, totally so! (This masterpiece was made by Zagβs undeniable urges)
I don't really have a valentines thing
BUT HAPPY VALENTINES DAY REGARDLESS !!
More team plasma ocs stuff .
I have become way too attached to Fridolin's parents .
Their names are . Fabian and Kari π©·π©·π©· .
+ their pokemon
Somewhat small loredump ... infodump ... ???
Family basics are that Fridolin is related to sage Bronius through his mother , she's Bronius' daughter because hell yeah .
Fabian and Kari raised Fridolin with the mentality that , so long as he has a good enough lie or excuse made up to avoid negative consequences for his actions , anything he does is A-OK !!
They don't care for their son AT ALL , hence why they just up and leave without him during team plasma's fall . They each care about themselves first and foremost , then for the other after that , but Fridolin was of no importance to them whatsoever . They cared only enough to raise him into what they thought would be independence .
It wasn't independence . Fridolin relied heavily on the safety and reassurance his parents gave him through supporting his constant lies , in most cases even helping him flesh out and perfect said lies . He was devastated when they left him .
Kari is , like her son , part of team plasma because of familial ties . Fabian joined team plasma because he was severely down on his luck and the motive of pokemon liberation gave him the idea that it'd let him " atone " for his less than friendly prior life choices . In the end he stayed for Kari , the liberties it gave him and the way it only encouraged his lifestyle of lying to get his way . Neither him nor Kari have much , if any actual loyalty to team plasma's idea of pokemon liberation .

Present day Fridolin my son...
Unsolicited lore/info dump also
Fridolin has a room in his house specifically for painting and doodling, sketching, drawing, etc.
One specific wall in this room is plastered full of sketches. Other walls are also slowly being covered, but so far, it's mostly only one wall.
Fridolin draws, like, three things repetitively, and all of these three things go up on the wall.
These three things are scenery, Koren and π©π²π·ππΈπ΅π²π·
He enjoys drawing whatever brings him comfort or things that bring back happy memories. Present day Fridolin is waayyyy over his forced obsession with Zinzolin, but he can't not acknowledge that, in some way and to a degree, his attachment to Zinzolin was real and genuinely affects him to this day. Zinzolin was a huge part of his life for so long, and Fridolin really can't help but think of him fondly. Koren is there because... well, Fridolin is very much in love with Koren and way more accepting and open about this now. He's also quite happy about this, actually, simply because he really cherishes Koren and really loves that he loves him. It makes him very giddy and joyous. He draws scenery mostly for comfort and because he likes it (I can't actually draw scenery send help). Sometimes he'll draw places that he's been to, places that stuck in his mind for whatever reason and other times it's just random scenery he thinks of or sees on images and whatnot... He really likes drawing. Sometimes he'll spend hours doing nothing else and 80% of what he draws during that time is wall-worthy stuff...... it makes him happy!!!
He doesn't like having people in his drawing room, mostly because of the wall. And he doesn't allow anyone in there, really..... if he wanted to show a drawing to someone he'd probably rather move the whole canvas out to a different room rather than just letting someone into the room. It's his space of expression, where he can really express anything and everything and he'd feel very awkward about someone seeing the wall.
Yayay!!!!!

Yes. It was a double edged sword, and I made you come closer so it'd take the both of us with it.
