Emperor Jason Frost is known to his fans from his old Quidditch days under the nickname "Pinata". It refers to the fact that he was frequently injured during the course of games, but never left a game due to injury, continuing to play even if his bones had been broken.

After retiring from Quidditch (out of necessity more than anything else -- he was still healthy, but after a 35-year career you've gotta hang it up), he participated in various mixed martial arts leagues for a while, and was the OFC (Olwean Fighting Championships) Heavyweight Champion for a little over a year before retiring from that as well. He still does MMA every once in a while, but not in official competition... only exhibition matches. The official penalties for domestic violence and child abuse involve stepping into the Octagon with him, which is something nobody wants to do.

Regent King's 9001 hasn't been involved in any organised sports to date. The UPT's citizen spacecraft are still finding their place in the Universe, and their sports are very much embyronic. While he would be entirely able to be a Trainer in the rules of Pokemon Battling, there would be some practicality issues.

Regent Stefani did a little Pokemon Training, but that was far outshone by her successful singing career prior to holding the Regency.

Regent Mew took part in a number of exhibition matches against his only true rival in Pokemon Battling, Mewtwo. Unlike Mewtwo, Mew very rarely acted as Trainer.

Emperor Andrew was apart of many sports, such as, baseball, boxing, martial arts, and krav maga.
All of which were in the professional leagues. He played these, before becoming leader.
He is also a 12th degree black belt in every type of fighting style in the world which i count as sports as well.

Oh, yes he has tried to get involved with multiple sports (Partly from being forced by his parents) but he quit them only after a few games. He says he hated sports extremely, and he would be extremely pissed to find someone force their children into sports instead of encouraging them to play.

TurtleShroom has had soldiers/warriors for rulers- as much athletic, or even more, than sports -but that was only recently. Back in our isolated days (pre-1991), we hadn't much experienced anything like that.

Until now, TurtleShroom had not experienced any sportsman outside of a gun hunter.

Prime Minister Soden Larssen first came to national prominence as a boxer when he was a young man and even represented the Radiatian People's Socialist Union at the Noctur Olympics.

Larssen learned to box while serving a six month jail term for distributing pro-capitalist propaganda and protesting against the incumbent communist regime.

He retired from boxing aged 30, before going on to become a successful corporate banker, CEO and then, after the fall of communism, a politician.

Sounds like Jęk and Soden should go a few rounds.
