[ATTN: This message will auto-delete in one minute.] [file transfer request: file1.jpg, file2.jpg] [[Two images, of Raikou and Entei respectively; the first shows Raikou bathed in the light from a flash of lightning, fangs bared as it hurls itself forward. The second is of Entei, standing still overlooking Cerulean from the cape, sunlight streaming over it from its own Sunny Day, contrasting sharply with the blackness of the rest of the sky. Both pictures are taken from a distance.]] You may have heard of these two: Raikou and Entei, part of the Ecruteak combo deal. They've been looking for their missing brother, hence the storms. Luckily for us, Proton's Celadon science team works fast, and we got what we needed out of Suicune in time to release it at the outskirts of Mt. Moon at 2:15 this morning. The power should return soon. Moving it to another base for further containment was an impossibility, as it took a 24-hour team of twenty psychic-types to keep the other two from finding its location. Rest assured that all your hard work didn't go to waste: with the information we have, our next project is more than ready to get underway. You can all expect your rewards shortly.

We're too exhausted sob Instead, we'd like to ask that muns of characters who are looking for promotions (in other words, unless you actively want your character promoted, you don't need to do this) to post here outlining their character's services rendered to the Team and ways they've made themselves stand out! Please also outline anything that may get a negative impact, if any. This is to ensure we don't miss anything.]]

A premise: while the mun would like a promotion for Gorthan if he's eligible, he can very well live without it. It would help draw attention away from the less Rocket-y things he does.

That said! Gorthan was very active in the Magnet Train heist. He was part of the group that planted the bombs, and later battled a few people.

He is very active in the Spring Cleaning plot as well. He is the creator of the devices that turn trash into Pokémon. Together with Descole, he was also in charge of planting the devices in Celadon City. He is also participating in the battle against Suicune, assisting Kato and Ivan.

During his first months, he worked on a genetic data bank for the Team, comprising DNA from Grunts as well as from Pokémon specimen in TR's possession.

He's working on several projects concerning the genetic manipulation of Pokémon, and, as Evron's chief authority on the subject, he's incredibly good at it.

In the laboratories, his attitude is somewhat bossy and reserved; he makes up for that by being incredibly hard-working, able to work on the same thing from early in the morning until late at night with hardly any breaks.

Now for the less Rocket-y things... During a conversation where Cobra Commander mentioned punishing people who had grown a conscience, Gorthan physically shuddered, because that is exactly the kind of thing that tends to happen to him; because of that, on Evron, he has already been exiled and nearly killed, so he doesn't want to risk it again.

Gorthan's outrage at the anonymous attack in Ecruteak City was anything but fake. He ended up spewing insults and vague threats at an anonymous Kimblee. He even traveled to Ecruteak City to give medical assistance to the Kimono Girls (but at the same time, he was also perfecting the devices for Spring Cleaning; so it's a good thing that the inner conflict didn't let him sleep).

But the most non-Rockety thing he did in the aftermath of the Ecruteak attack was participating (as the Woodsman) in Minnie's fundraiser play of Snow White, which was broadcast to the whole network.

So, yeah. Pros and cons are all over the place for this guy. Your decision, mods.
