Exotic

Yovani's Croconaw (ヨバニアリゲイツ Yovani's Alligates), nicknamed Exotic, was the first Pokemon obtained by Yovani on his journey as a Pokemon Trainer. He was Yovani's starter given to him by Professor Elm.

Adventure
Exotic was given to Yovani by Professor Elm on Yovani's birthday. Him along with a Chikorita, and a Cyndaquil, natural starters in Johto, were on the table, ready for any trainer willing to take the challenge of going on a journey. Yovani chose Exotic, who back then was a Totodile, because Yovani could see in his eyes that he was willing to challenge the impossible. Soon enough he and Yovani closely bonded. Exotic, as alot of other Pokemon in the Johto region, have a tendency of not liking their pokeballs, and staying outside. Yovani was OK with that and kept Totodile either in his backpack, or next to him. When Yovani and Exotic first went to the Violet City Gym to challenge Falkner. It was a one-on-one battle between Exotic, and Falkner's Pidgeot. Totodile easily beat the Pidgeot with a couple of Water-Guns. After winning the Gym Badge, Yovani went to go challenge the gym in Azalea Town, but Yovani new that he needed a new Pokemon on his team. He had heard from other trainers that the more Pokemon, the safer the journey. But Yovani only had Exotic with him. It took Yovani about a day, spending the night in a nearby Pokemon Center, before he could find a Pokemon come up to him. It was a Magmar. When Magmar wasn't noticing, Yovani ordered Exotic to attack with a quick Water Gun. Mareep was knocked out, and Yovani had caught his second Pokemon. Totodile grew up fast, and he evolved, before Yovani had caught a new Pokemon. Totodile has helped Yovani with many competitions, being his strongest Pokemon. Croconaw easily beat Clair, the Champion of the Elite Four. Totodile evolved to Croconaw while fighting Prince.

Personality
As seen in many battles, Croconaw's personality is very loyal and willing to help Yovani complete his Journey. Croconaw also teaches his younger team-mates all about battling, being very experienced and all.
