I saw Spot do it so I had to jump on the bandwagon!

Vices:

Wrath: “When everything goes white, I'm not sure if you running would make any difference."

Akino has no control over how angry he can get even at smallest things. He has his father's anger issues and was raised in an environment where that anger was only allowed to fester. When extremely angry, he can be down right cruel and humiliate others publically and feel no shame. This isn't something he is proud of, but nonetheless still does it rather frequently. Whenever his wrath reaches its peak, he has a very faint recollection of what he has done but the result is almost always fatally wounding a Pokemon. He acts like a feral animal he has been told, snarling and barking instead of using actual words to communicate.


Gluttony: "The only food I intake on a daily basis is what is required for my nutritional plan. It is strict but very important."

Akino is kinda a health nut and cuts sugar completely out of his diet. The sight of it makes him nauseous and actually ingesting it is even worse. He follows a Paleolithic diet, which includes eating vegetables, fruits, nuts, roots, and meat. He can and will survive off the land if he needs to. He never eats for the sake of eating (or stress eats), the diet regimen in his mind being just as important to follow as it is important to brush his teeth three times a day.


Greed: “As you get older you learn not to obsess over material things."

The only reason Akino would want money is for the convenience of buying things. He does not even actively seek it out since he could very well get food and other products by doing favors rather than spending the coin.


Envy: “Growing up with two others who always had it better than you make it hard not to be."


Like Akino has said, he had watched his two older brothers have such an easier life compared to his. They were in the same world as him yet the difference in how they were treated came down to bloodline. He never asks for much, but the things he occasionally wants that he can't obtain himself physically are always out of reach for him, but in abundance for other Pokemon. This caused him to have a sour attitude toward others who complain and be the driving force to cause him to remind others just how much worst they could have had it. (This scenario would lead to the public humiliation of others mentioned in Wrath.)


Sloth: “Get off your ass."

Akino has no chill. He practically works non-stop to the point of being up for multiple days and driving himself to the ground. He absolutely hates laziness and considers it the worst sin out of the seven. It is merely another word for inaction and not helping yourself. Akino is extremely independent and wants things done as soon as they can because he can't just stand to sit still and relax. The word 'Siesta' is most definitely ripped out of his dictionary.


Lust: "...Not anymore."

Akino is considered to be aromatic and does not do the whole 'relationship and romance' thing. Even then when others think he prefers the intercourse, on the other hand, he seems completely uninterested. I wonder why?


Pride: “My skill is something to be prideful of, but I don't mention it until someone else does."

Akino is vain and believes a Pokemon's skill is a huge part of measuring their worth, so in not being a procrastinator, he makes sure his skills are tempered to near perfection. He knows how strong he is but does not openly boast about it, only doing so when someone complains about themselves he would say something along the lines of 'Well if you actually started on a diet plan like mine Martha, then maybe you could actually lose that muffin top you won't shut up about.' *Sips tea*


Virtues:

Forgiveness: “Fool me once, Get out of my sight."

Akino does not play any games. If you ever managed to gain his trust, (which is already extremely hard to do) and then break that said trust, in his eyes to are dead to him. With already severe trust issues, this disconnection is a buffer to ensure that the Pokemon who broke his trust would never have the opportunity to do so again.


Temperance: "Self-control seems to be the one thing that is always out of reach for me."

This comes hand in hand with his Wrath. The reason why he so easily flies off the handle is that he lacks the control to calm himself down. He hates that he has no control, and is very aware of the fact that he does not have it. He tries his damnest to calm down when he feels like he is getting angry, but it's all in vain as he almost always says something callous or even gets aggressive, regretting what he says, but never apologizing.


Charity: “If I've managed to survive without help, then others can as well."

Having been given very little in his life, he is the prime example of someone who survived without having help. He will never give money to someone, the only time he is doing something charitable is when he offers his strength to someone much weaker to perform the task. This does not mean he can't be empathetic, but it has to be something that he has previously gone through or else the feeling will completely go over his head.


Kindness: “I only am rude when you are annoying."

And let's face it, some Pokemon can be pretty annoying, especially by his standards. If you are talking to him, you are considered annoying unless you have a pretty high charisma stat or speak of a topic that interests him. He will not be mean for the sake of being mean, in rare cases he would but only if he had bad blood with that certain Pokemon. Not snapping at you is kindness within itself as odd as that might seem to others, he is doing you a huge favor.


Diligence: “You got a job to do, so you better do it right."

As a hard worker, Akino takes pride in his work, even if what he is working on seems like the most unnecessary thing in the world. If you are doing to take that responsibility, you better give it your best effort is how Akino sees it. Why the hell did you offer to do the work if you weren't?


Chastity: “Your first mistake was even entertaining the idea I had some purity in me."


Akino doesn't want to talk about it.

Humility: "Stop asking how much I lift" (I had to.)

Akino does not openly boast about his skills and gives credit to others where it is due. (He will also call out dead weight when it is noticed, but that's beside the point.) He is humble when it comes to someone really helping him, but not when someone helps him in battle. He absolutely hates that kind of help, which causes his pride to the surface and yells that them rather than swallow it and thank them.

These are pretty fitting. Better try to avoid making Akino angry. Envy is higher than I was expecting, though. Can't wait to see the writing that explains the stat!

Yeah, I always copy my descriptions before posting because dA has a tendency to delete them when submitting.

Thank you!, and either way as mad as it made me, I think I posted perhaps not as long explanations, but more meaningful ones. Hopefully, you will know more about him now uwu

That was a fun read! Now I'm starting to suspect that Akino had some kind of failed relationship in the past or something.
