As a note, it is suggested that players do not rank up/down more than 4 skills. Also it is suggested that the amount of ranked up skills is equal to the amount of ranked down skills.

Edit: I managed to create my own.
Called motherly mayhem:
Rank up: pkmn ed.,intuition,acrobatics,intimidate,focus,and medicine ed.
Rank down: guile, occult, stealth,technology,general ed.
Sound good?
Woah there, that's a few too many!

Generally for backgrounds you create yourself, you'll want to Rank 3 Up and 3 Down, at the most. On page 15, I quote,

Quote:
 
A list of example Backgrounds can be found on the
following page, but you may simply choose to make
up your own, with the approval of the GM, of course.
Simply choose 2 or 3 Skills and raise them one Rank,
and then choose the same number of Skills to lower one
Rank.



For the character it seems you're trying to make, I might suggest something like this for your first 5 levels? Just an example of course. But it's a build that'll rush your Breeding Features for maximum efficiency, but lets you nab Rider early too.

Background: Pokemon Rider - +Novice Athletics, +Novice Pokemon Education, +Novice Command / -Pathetic Guile, -Pathetic Stealth, -Pathetic Tech Edu
Level 1 Edges: Mounted Prowess, Breeder, +Novice Medicine Edu
Level 1 Features: Hatcher, Birthright, Rider
Level 2 Edges: Adept Pokemon Edu, Novice Intimidate
Level 3 Feature: Hatcher's Training
Level 4 Edge: Adept Athletics
Level 5 Feature: Ride as One

Oh lol thank you, I must have missed that bit. I probably read it but didn't retain it.
I'll need to go back and make some more edits. I think lvl 5 would be best to start out. I guess I'll need to read up on leveling up now.

Not to interupt but may i ask a personal question about mind body spirit, and background fora character. I like to play super in character so I'm looking for flavor opinion over optimization.

Do the base Attributes get to increase upon level up? Or is it only 5 points between the 3(mind,body,spirit) through the whole campaign?

With two exceptions, the three Attributes never change. The two things that can change them are:
-The "Great Advancement" feature. This allows you to raise any single attribute by one once you have mastered a skill that uses that attribute.
-The Researcher talent, "A Practiced Mind", which increases your Mind by one, and requires Expert General Education.

Aside from these two features, your attributes will never change from their starting values.

Vanilla Boost in Hobbyist also raises an Attribute.

Thank you both. I think I've got my character 90% done now! I'm so excited!!

This is what my character might look like.

Due to my own stupidity, I have once again lost the data for the character sheet, after I was 98% done..... :'(
