Plopping down my WIP rn

Human
--------------
Name: Ashley Prince (Often called The Prince by his swooning fans)
Gender: Male
Type Specialty: Bug-Type
Age: 27
Appearance: Ashley is an averagely tall man standing at 5'7", and at first glance you wouldn't think too much of him. When you take a second to adjust, you'll see that he's actually a fairly attractive man. He has a somewhat lanky figure, but also a very toned physique due to his active lifestyle, and he takes great care of his body by eating properly and exercise regularly. He has relatively pale skin, with a slightly olive complexion. His skin is blemish free, and burns easily in the sun, which prompts him to always keep sunscreen on him just in case. His platinum blonde hair is medium short, with longer bangs that reach down to his nose. He usually keeps his hair decently styled, and is one of the few people that can make a straight mid split look good. His face has defined features such as a wide jawline and high cheekbones, and his golden yellow eyes have that certain determined look to them.
For clothing, Ashley don't hold anything back. He got money and he enjoys the finer quality clothing wherever he can find it. Everything from sponcorships from famous boutiques, to high end sports wear, he's got it all. He doesn't dare tell anyone that his favorite outfit is a huge hoodie and slackers, however. Being a sporty man, he often find that perfect balance between practicality and comfort, without giving anything up in the looks-department. His casual attire consists of a simple pair of skintight jeans that stretches, paired with a long-sleeved beige sweater that's just one size too large for him. With this, he rotates between like 15 pairs of formal-looking sneackers in a variety of blacks, browns and greys. He doesn't accessorize much, but wears an expensive wristwatch, and has pierced ears, with a Key Stone being one of them.
His pokemon battle outfit is really just his actual soccer uniform. A color scheme of greens and pears on a long-sleeved shirt which also have the Galarian Speedrunners' logo on the chest, as well as a plethora of sponsor logos on the back, and a matching darker green pair of shorts. He wears a pair of black cropped leggings underneath, which reaches to just under his knees. His sneackers are alsodark green, and are also somehow stuffed with sponsor logos. He also wears a fingerless half-glove on his left hand to avoid wrist injuries from throwing pokeballs. It's a big thing in Galar, trust me. If you're ever lucky enough to catch a glimpse of him shirtless, you'll see he has a small tattoo on the left side of his chest. The tattoo is completely black, and is basically only a long line which shapes itself into a Totodile's head.
Personality: Considering his position in life as the star player of a very successfull soccer team, as well as his role as an E5 member, it is easy to assume Ashley's just another prim celebrity with no real context. This is far from the truth, however, as Ashley is probably the most down to earth person you've ever met. Decorated with a smile a solid 90% of the time, he greets everyone he meets with a smile, regardless of your disposition of him. He is very approachable, and never judge anyone for anything ever. Well, maybe he would judge you if you finished that plate of thanksgiving dinner in less than 10 minutes and went for seconds, but he's a work in progress. Always a shoulder to cry on and a voice of reason in your time of chaos, Ashley is near perfect in the public eye, something he takes great pride in. While he is aware of his status as a celebrity, he doesn't let it go to his head, and always preach hard work and determination when asked for the key to his success.
Behind closed doors though, he's slightly different than he appears publicly. While he always watches out for the other E5 members, and acts sort of like an older brother to them despite some of them being older than himself, he has a habit of bottling up his own feelings and never truly letting his guard down. He is very selfless and caring to his friends, and occasionally neglects his own needs and wants. He treats his pokemon like his own children, whom he raise with a loving iron fist. Strict training regimes are a daily part of both Ashley and his pokemons lives, and while he can be tough on them, it is very easy to see he genuinly care very much for them.
Ashley is somewhat conflict shy, and has probably never raised his voice to another person before. If conflict arise, he takes great care to not overstep boundaries or to egg the situation further. Despite that though, he's very much a "No bullsh
it" kind of person, and if someone argues with him over something he deems as petty, irrelevant or just plain stupid, he laugh it off, appologize for whatever he did, and moves on. Life has no time for idle misunderstandings. While Ashley has the best of intentions at all times, he does struggle at times with seeing other peoples points of view, and thus unintentionally come off as pushy and ignorant.
Ashley's easily best trait, that nobody ever really speaks of, is his ability of managing time. He's a born multitasker, managing the soccer team, League matches, Missy and his own merch stores, birthdays, parties, appearances on TV Shows, mock battles, Mock soccer matches, Mockumentaries, how does he have time for it all? Nobody really knows how he does it. While he loves staying busy and always having something to do, he gets easily impatient when nothing happens, feeling like he's missing out on something. He's a hard worker, and doesnt take anything for granted, but despite that, he secretly wish for a lengthy vacation evey now and then, as he feels very overworked with everything he has on his plate. Neglecting his own need to relax and slow down his pace, he can become irritable at times, becoming short tempered and generally just stressed out. While he is aware of this shortcoming, he does his best to keep it to himself, even though it's easy for others to see when he's struggling, as the first thing he does is shutting himself in mentally, and focusing even more on his work.
Ashley is an athlete through and through. Never skipping leg day, never skipping upper body day, never skipping literally anything, he goes through rigorously intense workouts every single day, often bringing his pokemon with him. His career and life circle around his own physical shape, after all. When he works out, he becomes a much more determined person, pushing limits left and right while also sometimes lecturing others on how what they are doing and they are wrong and this is how you do it and that's how he threw a rope around a challenger's waist once and started running laps in his League hall against their will. The consequences of that weren't pretty.. Anyways, he's a determined man with a goal. He definitely has set some high standards for himself and his pokemon, and while his aim is admirable, he does need to be told to relax every now and then, as he often push past his own, his pokemon and even other peoples limits with the intention of pushing their limits. His competetive nature comes with the field, and Ashley enjoys feeling like he's better than other people in certain aspects of life. Most notably on the soccer field and in League Matches, one gets to see his competetive side, and even during mock battles against other E5 members he tends to take it just a stretch too far. Due to this, he's somewhat of a sore loser, and has a tendency to beat himself up over it unnecessarily, taking loss and molding it into motivation for tougher practice in order to better himself and his pokemon.
While Ashley is definitely a career man in every aspect of the word, he is bisexual, and occasionally set off time for dates here and there. While he was scared the media would shun him if they found out he was also romantically interested in men, his agent encourraged him to make a public coming out, which he did by bringing his best friend Ferdinand as his date for an event. Nobody would bat an eye at it, hadn't Ferdinand very drunkenly, and very publicly planted a hot steamy kiss on his lips in front of the cameras. The clip is on youtube you should check it out. Meant as nothing more than a fun prank among best friends, the media ate it up, and the coming out was a success. Shame Ferdinand is still experiences fallout from the event though, as he is straight himself. Regardless, Ashley's life has little to no room for romances, but he's always updated on the latest dating apps,juggling from app to app trying to find Mr or Ms. right.
In conclusion, Ashley is a hard working soccer mom with too high expectations for himself and his pokemon. Even though he needs to take it slow and maybe go on a vacation, he prefer to be where the action is. Never one to sit still and always someone with something to do, he still set off time to arrange for his friends to be wherever he is, be it a soccer game, a formal event etc. While he wishes he could tone down the amount of projects and work he has going on, he feels he's in too deep at this point, and would hate to disappoint anyone. Be sure to bring a Pokemon knowing a Sleep-inducing move if you want him to take a break, because nobody is safe from Hurricane Ashley.
History: Oh man, where does one even start with this. Ashley's been around, and he's
seasoned despite his relatively young age. He was born into a very normal family, consisting of two hard-working parents and no siblings. Being left on his own accord a lot as a child made him determined to make friends, and while he was a lazy boy initially, his parents forced him to do at least
one physical activity. This activity ended up, of course, with being soccer. As a child, he was very mediocre in school, considering he wasn't the brightest of students. Sitting still and reading a book about injuries was boring to him, whereas climbing a tree and doing a professional dive off a branch as it snapped, gaining a concussion to his head as a result, was better learning for him. Avid follower of John Dewey's philosophy; Learning by doing, he just got more out of practical experience rather than theoretical studying. Besides this though, he managed to stay afloat all through his schoolyears, eventually graduating with just above average grades.
As mentioned, Ashley always had a knack for Soccer. Being naturally talented from a young age, he enjoyed the attention being good at something was, and as such decided to spend more and more time on it, eventually wanting to try playing professionally. He loved the thrill of sports, and the cheering roars from the crowds, and also all the good merch dels the professional stars eventually got. Yeah, his motivations did have a few dollar signs here and there, but overall it was defenitely something he wanted to dip his toes into once he got to that stage of his life. However, he would take the early end scholarship in order for him to be able to go on a pokemon journey when he was 10, which was something that excited him even more. New places to explore, new pokemon and friends to meet, it would be nothing short of epic!
And epic it would be, once he got through the tutorial.. Uhm.. the paperwork etc etc in order to apply for a trainer card, unfortunately for him, all local professors were swamped, and nobody wanted to endorse him for the galarian Gym Challenge due to his lack of experience and pokemon knowledge. However, never one to give up, Ashley would send applications to different regions, hoping one of them would have a spot and pokemon for him to get started.
He got lucky. Very lucky. On the verge of giving up his pokemon adventuring dreams and going back to school, he got an E-mail from a certain man named Elm. Professor Elm. He never did give his full name, only his title and surname, unless the title is actually his actual name. The professor offered to fly him out to the Johto region and get him set up, in exchange for him helping the professor out with his research. Being 10 years old and having no logical grap on how adult responsibility worked, Ashley eagerly approved of the offer, and set out to the fabled Johto region.
The Johto regio would be very different from what he was used to in Galar, being more... warm, and welcoming. Less industrialized, with more focus on the basics around pokemon training. In other words, it was perfect, and staying at the hotel the night before he would meet the professor, Ashley couldn't sleep, and kept tossing and turning, not even noticing the Haunter in the corner patiently waiting for him to fall asleep to unleash its Dream Eater. Alas, Ashley didn't sleep that night, and instead ran laps around he hallways of the hotel to calm himself. Once it was time for him to go to the lab, he was made aware that he was not alone there. Standing with the professor was a young girl and a boy, both his own age. He was made aware that due to some security regulations put in place after a pokemon trainer was mauled to death by a wild Ursaring after leaving on her own, Ashley would have to travel in a group of 3.
Being very much against the idea, Ashley protested that he was a big boy and could take care of himself. Everyone in the lab laughed at that before it got awkwardly silent, and some eve shed a tear while putting a stuffed pokedoll on a little shrine dedicated to someone named Daniela. The other kids seemed chill with the decission however: One of them was a boy, taller than Ashley and with wild dark brown hair. The other kid was a calm girl with long black hair put up in twin pigtails. They introduced themselves as Elena and Ferdinand, and after the introductions were over, the professor eagerly started filling them in on the responsibilities you had as a pokemon trainer. Being 10 years old and very impatient, Ashley obviously did not pay attention, quickly grabbed a Totodile that wandered in from somewhere, and ran off before being given its pokeball.
Luckily, Ferdinand and Elena had his back and brought Totodile's Pokeball with them, and the journey started. It was pretty awkward at first, but within the first few days, the trio learned to cooperate. Elena had chosen Chikorita, which left Cyndaquil for Ferdinand. Apparently, Ferdinand was very into music, and would often hum or sing when they were walking. It was annoying at first, but eventually Elena joined in, and at last Ashley joined in, and the three had their own little barbershop quartet, considering Ferdinand's Cyndaquil also enjoyed the power of song. This all changed when Ferdinand caught a Jigglypuff, however.
The travel through Johto would proove to be a very exciting one, as the trio would eventually get caught up in a pyramid scheme of Slowpoke tails, money, bosses with sick leaves and general shenanigans. As their journey went on, they would defeat gym leaders together, camp in the wilds together, and encounter an evil Team Rocket plot in the meantime. However, their adventures were not without costs, as Elena's Bayleef was stolen by a Team Rocket opperative. While they did fight many Team Rocket members on theyr travels, they never found her Bayleef again. This took a very powerful toll on Elena, who was already struggling with coming out of her shell. There were many silent nights around the campfire. Ferdinand and his team would preform songs to her, and Ashley would desperately feil at making funny knock knock jokes to her. She was not having any of it, yet, she appreciated their effort.
The trio would eventually fight their way through all 8 gyms in the Johto region, earning their right to challenge the Elite Four. However, while they easily swept through the Elite Four themselves, their dreams were abruptly crushed by newly appointed Champion, Red. Easily wiping their entire team, one by one, Red offered some words of wisdom before they left in humiliation. "...." he said. ":..... ...... ........ ......". In a sense, he was right. ":...... ........". With Red's words, the trio felt a new calling, despite their crushing defeat. They needn't be champions, they needn't strive to be the very best that no one ever was. While catching them was their real test, training them was still their goal.
As such, the trio would travel across the land, searching far and wide in order to focus more on the task given to them by the professor of the region. They had already caught an impressive amount of pokemon on their own, and while it was a timey effort, they all eventually managed to fill the pokedex as instructed by the professor. He presented them all with an innovation of his: The Shiny Charm! Ashley had no idea how the mechanics surrounding the item worked, but once the professor started doing math he just left. However, literally 15 minutes later, Elena would be slam dunked in the head by a Pineco falling from above. A
golden Pineco. While Ferdinand and Ashley were staring at it in awe, Elena quickly turned around and kicked the Pinecone hard into a wall nearby, with the precission of a soccer player. The pokemon instantly fainted, giving Elena the chance to catch it. Ferdinand and Ashley's jaws had to be mopped from the ground with a spatula.
Let's do a time skip. We need a time skip. The trio are now.. let's see.. 18 years old. Having finished Professor Elms pokedex, the trio were travelling across regions, taking on gym challenges as they were presented. While they still had to defeat a champion, they all had an impressive collection of badges at this point, which Ashley stored on a certain red and white cap he owned. What does one even do now? They felt.. complete. They never found Bayleef, but Elena seemed to have given up hope and moved on. Ferdinand had voiced his interest in going back to Johto in order to pursue a musical career, while Elena herself wanted to catch up on her studies. They all did an emotional three-way part at an intersection during a sunset; all walking in different directions.
What does one do, after this? Ashley looked at his favored team. While he loved all his pokemon equally, he had a soft spot for his own elite 6. His starter seemed eager to just follow him. Feraligatr was always like that, following his examples. The rest of his team also displayed an uncharacteristic volnurable and touching moment, before they all walked off into the sunset together towards an uncertain future.
Another time skip! I love those, make a time travelling sound in your head as you imagine a toilet being flushed down. Ashley is now 21 years old. After parting with his companions, he decided he would go back to the Galar region, where he easily swept through the gym challenge, before yet again being stumped by their champion, Leon. While Ashley's own Charizard made a good run for their money, the champions Gigantamaxed Charizard swept the floor with them. Feeling the crushing blow of defeat once again, Ashley were set on retiring from his pokemon journey for good. Elena had graduated to become a lawyer, while Ferdinand was a household name in Sinnoh as a DJ, slowly turning ripples into waves internationally. Feeling like he had nowhere left to go on his own, Ashley returned home, where he would stay for a few months while picking up a part time job as a junior league soccer coach. He did have a lot of experience at this point after all, and figured he could do something with that. Soccer was something he loved, and he lovedthe faces of others once he taught them how to play properly and having fun while doing so.
It wasn't until a few years later that he would be approached by a scary-looking older man in a flamboyant tuxedo. He introduced himself as Chairman Bent, and claimed to have been paying attention to Ashley's soccer career, long before he even decided to do it. Ashley flinched and cringed as he realized the times during the past decade where he felt watched hadnt just been an ill feeling after all, but he listened regardless, ready to call the police. The skeletal man said he wanted Ashley to try out to be a striker for a Soccer team he was organizing, considering they were experiencing a rapid successgrowth despite not having a set team yet. Being met with screams of joy and encourragement from his friends when he Blyped them, Ashley decided to accept. Soccer was a fun hobby of his regardless, so what could he lose?
Nothing. He lost nothing. After signing up with the Galarian Speedrunners, Ashleys popularity gre taller than the Dynamaxed Alolan Exeggutor he saw once, and all of a sudden he was a household name. It was so weird, being in the spotlight like this, but it didn't feel wrong. In fact, Ashley finally felt at home, traveling across regions for championships, matches and whatnot. While he wasn't battling a lot anymore, he still carried his team around, battling whenever he had the chance. A short lifetime of being a good number 2 second only to insane champions, his popularity grew even further within the community, and people who weren't interested in soccer started noticing how strong he was in battle. Defeating challengers left and right, he would be scouted for being the faculty head of a certain Battle Tower in the Sinnoh region, a professional breeder for a posh breeding company etc. He had everything he wanted at his fingertips, and only his own choices were holding him back.
Despite the offers, he decided to stay with the Galarian Speedrunners. The team had breached mainstream with such a pace and intensity, they were all famous now. It was so strange, going from being a nobody to having everybody drool over your shirtless body because you did that
one underwear commercial for Boxers Boxers Boxers™ . It was at this peak he was approached by the most sought after scout of them all: Madame Magnolia DeSnoot. She was a fierce talent scout, who in turn wanted Ashley to be part of the Sinnoh's Elite 4. Having been offered Gym Leader roles before, Ashley had never experienced someone wanting him to be an Elite Four before. The concept was new but exciting, and obviously required him to relocate to the Sinnoh Region, where all accomadations would be prepared for both him, his pokemon and his friends. At this point, Ashley had all of Ferdinands Albums on his iPod, as Dj. Blaze had really taken off in recent years. He would even come to Elena for legal advice once she graduated law school, and the trio were back together ish.
Due to them all having their own busy schedules to follow, they all caught pokemon knowing Teleport, in order to fullfill their promise of Always being there for each other, be it a difficult court case, a concert or a soccer match. Ashley accepted the E5 offer, being told he would have to compose a team of a speciffic type in order to qualify. Ashley then created a dreamteam of Bug-Type Pokemon, training vigurously with them Every single day, until they were ready for the mock battles. Ashley swept the competition, and became the newest addition to the Sinnoh's new Elite Five.
Other:
- Ashley is a very successful and famous soccer player, and is the star player of the Galarian Speedrunners.
- He's Left-handed.
- As he was a Pokemon Trainer in his youth, Ashley has a plethora of other Pokemon than his Bug-Types. Some include Feraligatr, his first ever Pokemon, which hangs out at the league and enjoys retirement. Other pokemon includes a Gallade, Galvantula, Steelix, Hitmontop and an army of Joltiks. More on that later.
- Oh, is it later already?. Ashley saved a legion of Joltiks from a burning forest once, and they all kind of imprinted on him. Their mother is a Galvantula, duh, but their father, also a Galvantula, sadly died in the fire. Ashley caught their mother, and kind of got the whole Joltik Experience to go with it. They all now hang out at the league, helping with maintainance, electric stuff and just generally appearing where you'd least expect them. He even found a Joltik in the shower once, just hanging out.
- Ashley's League Hall is shaped like a soccer stadium, and he often arrange large crowds to spectate whenever he is challenged, giving that authentic Galarian Gym Challenge experience.
- Despite his Centiskorch being able to Gigantamax, he doesn't do so for his league matches.
- Keeping up Galarian traditions, Ashley makes a lot of League Cards which he shares over social media, as well as limited edition ones you can only get at his events.
- He owns a Shiny Charm that he was awarded by Professor Elm when he completed the Pokedex. He keeps it on his bag as a good luck charm. Unbeknownst to him, it was the magic of the charm that led him to meet Missy.
- While soccer and his duties as an E5 member are his top priorities, Ashley is also an accomplished model, often modelling for sportswear and underwear alongisde Missy.
- Ashley has problems sleeping, often laying awake and stressing he doesn't get anything done. He combats this by having his Roserade (A Pokemon from his adventuring days) use Sleep Powder on him.

Pokémon
--------------
Species: Scizor
Name: Ace
Gender: Male
Appearance: Ace looks like any other regular Scizor, and has no defining features.
Personality: Ace is the preacher of the choir of the three C's: Cool, Calm and Collected. A professional through and through, Ace never lose his temper, and is calculating and cunning in battle, aiming with precise accuracy and insane strength. A formidable fighter from day one, he is quite prideful, and enjoys the thrill of battle. When he's not battling or training, he's often seen in calm surroundings, minding his own business, or acting sort of like a sheep herder to the army of Joltiks Ashley keeps at the league.
History: While Ace is Ashley's ace now, he wasn't always so. Caught during a bug catching contest in the Goldenrod national park in the Johto Region, Ashley and his friends held their own mini competition to see who could catch the strongest pokemon. While both Ashley and Ferdinand caught powerful pokemon, Elena somehow bested them with the strongest Caterpie Ashley to date has ever seen. Being a solid powerhouse throughout his pokemon adventure, he decided to use Ace after becoming a E5 member, when he decided to focus more on the Bug-Type.
Other:
- Ace can Mega Evolve, and holds a Scizorite.
Species: Frosmoth
Name: Mothra
Gender: Female
Appearance: Mothra looks like any other regular Frosmoth, and has no defining features.
Personality: Royalty. That's the proper word to describe Mothra. She's better than you, and she doesn't care if you don't like to hear it, for she will preach it. Cocky to a fault, and somewhat prim, she dislikes battles even though she easily carries her weight when it comes down to it. She has a motherly side when it comes to Ashley and his other pokemon, showing surprisingly great sportmanship despite her arrogant nature. She enjoys Oran Berries.
History: In the beginning, there was Snom. That's it. Ashley saw a Snom one day and instantly fell in love with her.
Species: Yanmega
Name: Reyna
Gender: Female
Appearance: Reyna is a Kaiju amongst her kind, easily twice the size of normal Yanmega. She also has a more weathered look to her, with slightly greyer colors than normal.
Personality: A gigantic bundle of love, Reyna loves people and she loves pokemon. She enjoys sitting on peoples heads, despite her size making it near impossible without actually harming someone. A fearsome battler, her enormous wings can cause internal bleeding and busted eardrums and generally just serious damage. Definitely the kind that would accidentally kill her pet rock and go on a rampage about it, she is second in sheer power only to Ace.
History: The tale of Ogre is one passed down through generations of people in Florama Town in the Sinnoh Region. The tales spoke of a monster living in the meadow, a monster out for bloody venegance to all humans, as she had been victim to their merciless hunting for decades. Several people have claimed to have seen the Ogre, but have failed to provide any tangible proof of her existence. The only record of her was caught on tape by a youngster training his top precentage Rattata. The blurry video depicts a thick fog, where what appears to be a huge fighter jet flying past him at impeccable speeds. Only when stopping the recording at the exact right moment, and only for a frame or two, one can spot the fabled Ogre as it rushed past. The youngster never set foot in the meadow again, but the paniced townspeople sought t their Bug-Type specialist for help. Turns out Ogre was just a huge Yanmega, and the eerie loud noises heard from within the fog was her wings flapping at speeds greater than that of any other bug. It also turns out that the Ogre was just hungry, and enjoyed feasting on the centuries old, huge honey tree in the meadow before retreating with her speed boost ability. Ashley caught the monster, and the two are now good friends and comrades in arms.
Species: Golisopod
Name: Petra
Gender: Female
Appearance: Petra has several scars on her armor, hinting to a brutal life of battle, drama and intrigue
Personality: A fighter through and through, Petra is not one for niceties, and is often quick to egg other pokemon into battle. Her immense strength is only matched by her tanky defenses. A powerhouse in every meaning of the word, she lives for battle; She
breathes for battle. When she's switched out, or not partaking in battle, she gets restless.
History: Be careful who you call a Wimpod in high school, because they will come back and most likely just flat out murder you in a humiliating battle. Petra was caught as a Wimpod while Ashley was on a vacation to the alola region. Spotting a beach covered by the little cuties, he walked around until he found
the one, determined by nothing but personal preference. He simply picked one up, and gave it a hug before it passed out from fear. After being caught though, he was careful to give her all the space and attention she needed to overcome her wimpy nature and become the fierce warrior she is today.
Species: Centickorch
Name: Miss. Lisa Baconbug
Gender: Female
Appearance: Miss Lisa Baconbug, or "Bacon" for short, does not differ from others of her species besides her Gigantamax form.
Personality: Bacon is one of those "no jokes only serious" kinds of pokemon, with little to no humor at all, and a tendency to scoff at the more playful Pokemon around her. In a sense, she's very much an old lady, preferring the company of the more mature Pokemon, especially Reyna, due to their similar personalities. While kind of snobby, she still cares for the children, and is fiercly protective of her friends, her trainer, and her curry.
History: Miss. Lisa Baconbug was traded to Ashley from his friend Ferdinand for a Roggenrola during their pokemon adventure days, and has been with him ever since.

Name: Missy
Gender: Missy
Appearance: Missy is a shiny Illumise, but has no other defining features.
Personality: Missy is a world class A-list super mega famous celebrity icon and she will physically fight you if you ever tell her otherwise. Having originally been a timid Pokemon who was scared of others due to her being different than others of her species, she took every bit of Ashley's encouraging and too it to heart. She is the center of the world. She is special, and literally nobody else is like her. While Ashley referred to her inner warm personality, Missy took it as a physical compliment, further boosting her ego. She is now a godzilla-esque famous monster who breathes for the attention and the merch. She doesn't even battle anymore, preferring to cheer other pokemon on. However, she battles if she must, and she is still a formiddable pokemon to face off against, even though she taunts, flaunts, demeans and generally just sh
its on her opponents even after they are defeated. She is somewhat of a prude, and takes great care of her appearance. She absolutely refuses to fight Ground-Type pokemon, as she is scared she's gonna get dirty.
History: Missy was caught in the Hoenn region. Nothing particularily different about her capture, but Ashley noticed she was a lot shyer than her peers, and after he witnessed the other Illumise bully her, he stepped in and gave the 4 Illumise a 50 minutes lecture on friendship, equality and ability to look past ones physical differences in order to see the true beauty inside. All the pokemon, as well as Ashley and his friends became slightly better people that day. After capture, Missy started relishing in the fame her trainer had brought her, especially after realizing her colors weren't a negative thing but, in fact, something
a lot of people seemed to love.
