Juan | Juan is a polite person who often describes things in a uniquely poetic manner. He revealed that he decided to [[Type expert|specialize]] in {{t|Water}} Pokémon because of their streamlined physiques and their weakness to {{type|Electric}} [[move]]s. He also accepts his mistakes and rationalizes them as being one of the best ways to add appeal to a [[Contest Battle]]. | ||
During a [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}, Juan has his Pokémon use attacks in quick succession, often making it hard for a challenger to land an attack. He uses each of his Pokémon's unique characteristics, like {{p|Whiscash}}'s whiskers or {{p|Seaking}}'s horn, to showcase their individuality and strength. | |||
Juan's position as [[Gym Leader]] and his Coordinator past has made him a well-known personality in Sootopolis City. He is particularly popular with young women. | |||
