So who remembers Rollo Nickelsen? The Perrserker gym owner from a while back?

Here we have Keith Groseman, a battle-bred Granbull and the co-owner of Heorot Steel-Fairy Gym alongside Rollo. He's a dyed-in-the-wool Oklahoman, one of three siblings who all went into professional battling after the Liberation. And where Rollo provides discipline and forethought, Keith is all about initiative and action. The two of them make a colorful team, but a solid one.

One might reasonably ask: Is he really a Granbull? Aren't they supposed to be more bulldog than pit bull? How come his teeth are so small? The answer is simple: That's how battle-breeding changes a Pokémon. His snout is the right shape for him to actually bite his opponents with it. His physique is tailor-made for combat. Every Granbull has a little bit of fighting-type energy buried deep inside them, but for Keith, that energy is a lot closer to the surface.

This picture is a couple years old, but I've been waiting for the right time to share it. That time is today!
