==History== |
||
+ | Prior to the series, Boulder was born to [[Finnick the Lycanroc]] and his unknown mate before she disappeared. Finnick was later driven from the Pack, leaving Boulder without his father. |
||
− | '''Before the Series:''' Boulder was born to the Poni Island Moon Pack(a Pack of Midnight Lycanroc) as the son of Finnick and his former mate Luna. Finnick already wasn't very liked in his Pack because he had more of a Midday Lycanroc's personality rather than that of a Midnight Lycanroc. When Boulder was young, Luna left and Finnick was driven from the Pack because of his reluctance to be savage in any way. The Pack leader chose to raise Boulder as his own purely to spite Finnick and teach the young pup to be savage. However, Boulder had apparently inherited his father's personality, and chose to go with Lucas when the Midday Lycanroc chose to join [[The Storming Alliance]]. Later, when Finnick joined, Lucas let him be with his true father, but Boulder continued to allow Lucas to be his adopted father. |

When Lucas hears [[Lycus the Lycanroc|Lycus]] growling, he hurries over to block the antagonistic Midnight Lycanroc's [[Stone Edge]] attack by crouching over him and Cody with them under his belly. Later, while thinking to himself, Lucas considers Boulder more his kin than Lycus. |

Appearance
As Rockruff: Boulder resembles a short non-anthropomorphic puppy with tan fur, a brown muzzle, and paws, brown-tipped floppy ears, bright blue eyes, and a pink nose. He has a white mane with rocks in it, and an inward-curling, bushy white tail and a white belly.
As Lycanroc: As Dusk Lycanroc, Boulder greatly resembles a Midday Lycanroc, but with a few obvious key differences. These are that he has orange fur, green eyes(that turn red when angry), and a much longer and thicker, mane. Boulder is rather stocky, and noticeably large for a Dusk, possibly due to his age and experience. He also has a battle-scarred pelt, and a scar slicing across his nose.
Personality
As Rockruff: Boulder is a kind-hearted, friendly soul. He is eager and innocent with a deep love for his father Finnick, who greatly contrasts from the usual portrayal of Midnight Lycanroc in the series.
As Lycanroc: Boulder is stern, firm and calm, but has a surprisingly short temper. When angered, especially in battle or when his friends or family are threatened, Boulder's eyes will become red and he will become almost feral with rage. He is very hard to calm down like this
History
Prior to the series, Boulder was born to Finnick the Lycanroc and his unknown mate before she disappeared. Finnick was later driven from the Pack, leaving Boulder without his father.
The young Rockruff was later taken from the Pack and its cruel leader by a Midday loner named Lucas, who took Boulder to the Four Worlds to join the Storm Fighters
It was there that Boulder was reunited with Finnick, who arrived later than them at the Base. While Finnick and Lucas found themselves growing closer, Boulder befriended older warriors Austin and Storm
During a great battle, Boulder evolved into Dusk Lycanroc, and was later sent on a mission to rescue a kidnapped Dallas. After that mission, the War of Darkness started up, and Boulder began suffering from nightmares and dark visions of an armored Echidna, driving him to leave on a journey to find answers to them
During his journey, Boulder unintentionally brings about Dark Enerjak's return, and is badly injured in a fight against him. After recovering, Boulder travels back to the Base, but encounters Dark Enerjak again, and Mephiles, both of whom give him a beatdown and leave him bedridden again
At the Base, Boulder struggles to get his new companions to fit in around the Base, before Enerjak and Mephiles attack at the same time. After a long, brutal battle with Mephiles, while Fox battles Enerjak, Boulder learns a new Z-Move in time to defeat them both.

Main Article: Boulder the Lycanroc/Powers
Boulder's currently known moves are Crunch (attack), Counter, Stone Edge, and Accelerock.
Boulder's confirmed Z-Move is Splintered Stormshards
Boulder has the power of foresight, a rare power granted only to Dusk Lycanroc, but is rare even then. This power allows Boulder to have sporadic visions that show him the past, present, or future, but he cannot do it on command. Additionally, it grants him a limited ability to sense people's feelings, as well as walk in dreams. But for the latter, he cannot do it on command, and must be directly touching someone as well as asleep himself.

Boulder's Ability as Rockruff is unknown, but is possibly Own Tempo, as in the Pokémon video games, that is the required Ability for a Rockruff to evolve into Dusk Lycanroc.
As Lycanroc, Boulder's Ability is Tough Claws, giving him a boost to all his attacks that make contact.
Skills
Like Midday Lycanroc, Boulder is very swift, but also has a ferocious fighting style similar to a Midnight. He also has incredible endurance like all Rock-Types, and can deal back twice as much damage as he was dealt via Counter.

Relationships
Austin Smith
Boulder is close friends with Austin, often helping calm him down, as well as the other way around. The two are often seen battling together, and Boulder is Austin's Pokemon Partner of choice. They choose to use their Z-Moves together. However, Austin's stubbornness means their friendship sometimes ends up on the rocks.
Michael Smith
Boulder knew Michael, but wasn't as close friends with him as he was with Austin. Still, he grieved Michael's death with Austin.
Storm the Buizel
Like with Austin, Boulder is good friends with Storm. They often play or train together, and Storm is Boulder's choice for a stand-in deputy when Boulder himself is forced to lead.
Finnick the Midnight Lycanroc
Finnick is Boulder's biological father, and they care deeply for each other. Boulder's friendly, childish personality as a Rockruff somewhat mirrors his father's kind and soft-hearted personality.
Lucas the Midday Lycanroc
Sometime before his debut in the series, Boulder was adopted by Lucas when the older Midday Lycanroc took him away from the Poni Moon Pack and became his adoptive father. When Finnick joined The Megastone Rogues to be with his son, Lucas let Boulder be with his biological father, but Boulder still considers him a father.
Dawn the Lycanroc
Boulder and Dawn are mates and love each other deeply. They have friendly arguments often, and are shown to support each other.
Sunny the Lycanroc
Sunny is the daughter and older child of Boulder and Dawn, and loves her parents and brother. It's possible her own fiery attitude is inherited from her father.
Pebble the Lycanroc
Pebble is the son and younger child of Boulder and Dawn. While Pebble is more timid than his fiery sister, he still loves his family, including his adopted children and his own mate. Pebble was given Crunch's old name.
Crunch the Lycanroc
Initially, Crunch and Boulder did not like each other and argued a lot, but a mistake on Crunch's part eventually put their relationship on the mend, and they became good friends. They are brothers-in-law, but refer to each other as "brother" sometimes.
Dr. Finitevus
Because of Finitevus' crimes, Boulder initially simply disliked him. This only worsened over the years, as Michael was killed and various other events happened that were caused by Finitevus
Lucky and Tundra Smith
Being a close friend of their adopted father Austin, Boulder loved to look after the two as pups, and still does, in a way. While Lucky and Tundra lead the Storm Fighters together, Boulder is their deputy and helps guide them and provide advice if either of them are troubled.
Dr. Starline
Boulder has a strong hatred for Starline, similar to his own of Finitevus. It is because of Starline that Phoenix and Murtagh were brainwashed, and Austin and Max were captured. Starline has expressed interest in Boulder's powers, but not to the point that he is obsessed with capturing him as well.
