Appearance
Michael is a boy with spiky red hair, green eyes and pale skin. He wears a yellow zipped up vest worn over a black long sleeved t-shirt with oranges stripes down the slevees, jeans which too have orange stripes down them and big brown boots. He also wears a small black bag around his waist which carries his items and most likely his Pokémon too, and a pair of googles around his neck. He wears his Snag Machine on his left arm and the Aura Reader on his headband. On his bag strap around his waist he keeps his P*DA.
Trivia
Michael appears to be ambidextous due to the fact that he throws a Snag Ball with his left hand, but when throwring a regular Poké Ball (when catching wild Pokémon or sending out his own) he throws with his right.
