ID under cut!

[ID: A sketchy, non-colored, digital image made in Procreate. There are two characters present from the midsection/waist up - Ginter, who has a sharp face; a hooked nose; a shaved-down beard; messy hair that parts to the right; and wrinkles around his mouth and under his eyes. His body is muscular, and he’s wearing a formal button-up that’s been unbottoned to reveal the middle of his chest. Ginter’s smiling and looking to his left at Volo. Volo has a squarer face; a wide and rounded nose; and long hair, that parts to the right to cover the right side of his face (his left), tied into a bun, but with two long strands at the side of his face unbound. Volo also has a muscular body, slightly leaner than Ginter, and Volo’s about a head taller; he has notable scarring where his hair is covering his face, and smaller scarring along his arms. He’s wearing a coat, fluffed up along the collar and end of the sleeves, that’s slightly open in the middle, showing a v-neck and a teardrop-shaped necklace underneath. Volo has his hands placed on either side of Ginter’s shoulders, and is staring at the viewer, smiling affectionately. Small hearts are drawn around his face to emphasize this. There are three blocks of text in the image; first is a block that says “Modern Ginter & Volo.” The block next to Ginter says “Ginter is Volkner's uncle. Leads a trading guild/union, focused on independent traders that don't want to be co-opted by the PokeMart Conglomerate.” The block next to Volo says “Volo is Cynthia's cousin, but was adopted by Ginter when he was a teenager. While Cynthia's a champion full time and a researcher on the side, Volo is kind of the opposite - he's an adept trainer and steps in for Cynthia from time to time, but is a full time researcher into the old myths and legends of Sinnoh.” END ID.]
