EDIT: HERE SHE IS!!!!
As you can see, I kinda forgot somethings...One, the green individual is not even here....I forgot it...and the legs weren't part of the ORIGINAL sprite...I seems to slightly look like she's not completely facing you, and that is on purpose...
And DOH! I just remembered, I forgot the weapons...
Hair: Kiyoko’s hair is long, going down to about the end of her back and at both sides of her head are two ponytails, tied with a red ribbon on each end. Her hair being completely black, Kiyoko wanted a tab bit of individuality to it. So she has a single neon green band of hair streaking down the right side.
Eyes: Kiyoko’s eyes are just a simple black, they have a distinct slant to them going to a sort of outer slant. They have nothing too interesting about them other than the slight bit of darker tint they seem to have when in a bright light.
Skin Tone: Kiyoko’s skin is…well…just plain. By that saying, Kiyoko’s skin is a fair pinkish tone, her face is a sort of cherry blossom pink that would seem to illuminate when close up to her, she may have a bit of a darker tone towards the parts of her body that aren’t covered by clothing, due to her many outdoor activities in broad daylight.
Weight: 135 Pounds
Height: 5"4’
Clothes: Kiyoko wears her school uniform from the Trainer’s School she attends in Eterna City. The top part is a simple blouse with a green miniature scarf around her neck in place of a regular tie that the boys would wear. The skirt is a mix of a full green plaid with small red, brown and tannish lines. She has socks that stop just below the ankle with a small green ribbon on the tip, and she wears either brown prep shoes, or green sneakers respectively.
Accessories: Kiyoko sometimes has a green ribbon tied in the back of her hair when she’s at school, and even replaces the red bows that tie her ponytails the same color. She has a set of two green ball earrings at either tip of the earlobe, and she always wears arm bracelets that have funny faces or sayings on them (they are sometimes different colors then what she has on…)

Friends: Kiyoko has two best friends that she spends most of ALL her free time with. Alisa Donovan, a 17-year-old carefree teen that adores flashing around the clothes she wears out of school. She grooms herself to a point where she’d call it illegal, and she loves buying clothes with her father’s money. She is just your typical stereotype of how rich girls love to spend their money. However, Alisa does have more GOOD qualities to outweigh her flaws. Whenever someone is in need Alisa always goes out of her way to help, even with little thing, and ESPECIALLY if it involves money. She helps the sick, volunteers at local hospitals and stores, help the elderly with groceries etc. She loves helping others, but for some reason doesn’t realize that she always expects something at the end, be it a small tip or a dollar or two.
Kiyoko’s second friend is Lili Alexanderson, another 17-year-old friend who’s free time is spent competing in whatever sport or club she may be in. Strangely, it was her lack of fatigue that drew Kiyoko and Alisa to her.
They met while trying out for a new team the school had started, and Kiyoko gave up at about an hour into training. However, Lili stayed the whole day, working up and epic amount of sweat, and seemed to never stop, not even for a minute. While the other girls thought this to be a little show boaty, Kiyoko and Alisa were greatly impressed. After that day of training, they tried to talk to her to get to know her just a little bit better. Lili only replied with, "Sorry guys, I can’t. I have a Swim Meet to get to in about 10 minutes, so I REALLY have to hurry! Talk to me in school tomorrow, you’ll see me at lunch! J", then she ran off.
The next day at lunch, they sat and talked, Kiyoko breaking conversation. They noticed that after Try-Outs, Lili looked just as fine as the time she came in, where as Alisa and Kiyoko seemed tuckered out from the start. Lili only giggled and replied that it was just something about her that never seemed to slow down. She said she’s always doing SOMETHING but it never really got to her, she just did it and went on with her day. They later found out that even though Lili is pretty much in a major amount of the yearbook already, she STILL has a lot of free time, and only gets into clubs/sports/etc., just to find something to do with it.
Kiyoko, Alisa, and Lili have been friends ever since then…
Family: Kiyoko lives with her mother, Mrs. Umi Sanada; her father, Satoshi Sanada; older brother Kashi, and little brother and sister, the twins Yoki and Yuki. Her grandparents are deceased, died from natural causes, and her aunt and uncle live in the upper part of Kanto, but she see’s them almost all the time. She has a healthy relationship with the whole lot, but has problems with being the only sibling around to watch the youngest while her parents are out. Kashi is rarely home, seeing as he goes to a college in Johto, so it’s always up to her to stay and look after them. She would leave them by themselves, but she knows from experience with the two that twins can NEVER be trusted in the same place at the same time.
Love Interests: Kiyoko secretly has crushes on a few people at her school, that only Alisa and Lili know about. She likes a boy in her homeroom named Dylan Johnson, a boy in her Swim Class named Juri, and another named Tankamori, but she just calls him "Tank". A boy that she considers her "second brother" has a crush on her, a Mr. Jeremy Holmes. He’s one of her Male Best Friends, but he wants it to be a little more than that, even though he’s to shy to tell her.
Skills and Hobbies: Kiyoko is an EXPERT in chess, although she tells NO ONE but Alisa and Lili who know how embarrassing it is for her. They see nothing wrong with it, but she cringes up at the thought of someone finding out she likes it. Whenever she can she’ll play a game or two, but will down-talk it in public, saying how lame and nerdy it is.
Another one of her talents is that she is great at making clothing. She sews and knits and everything, but keeps the clothing in her closet, despite how much her friends tell her how cute and amazing they look.
A hobby that she wants to break is collecting Pokemon Plushies. She loves them, but thinks it’s sort of childish, so when asked about them, she’d say they were Yuki’s. Also, she has a habit of squinting at things seeing as she needs glasses, but she doesn’t want any so she tries to not do it around her parents and teachers…who would eventually TELL her parents if they ever found out.
--Defining Info—
History: Kiyoko was born Kiyoko Ami Sanada, a full name that she barely uses. She’s called by her nicknames so much, she usually forgets to correct others when they say Yoko or Kimi to her. When she’s in school her main priorities are getting out of homeroom as fast as possible, what’s for lunch, and afterwards, what’s for dinner. She does well in school, maintaining a good B+ average, but she has a slight tendency to roam off and do other things like focus on her crushes or worry about her clothes and things of that nature. She usually relies on her friends to steer her back on track with her studies, which she NEVER does without them, and she gets really attentive when she’s working too.
She was raised in Eterna City all her life, where she grew up with the protection, of her OVERPROTECTIVE, parents. Her older brother attended the same school as her until she was about 12, where he then moved on up to his college days. The Trainer’s School in Eterna teaches K-12 so she went there for almost all her life.
Seeing nothing to do at home for being so small or too young, she would try out for a few teams at her school, being turned down by them all due to her small height. Luckily, when she tried out for a sword fighting class, nothing lethal, she was a shoo-in and got her place as a starter for the Tournaments. Finally, the day came when she could practice with a real sword. Even though it was still non-lethal, fancy stuff, she would train by herself to use it to defend against bigger foes and enemies. She’s been training for about 6 years now, and sometimes, even allows her friends and family to observe her.
Personality: Kiyoko is a happy, loud, and witty person. Smart, sweet kind, and overall a rough-houser. She loves to fight in a sense, being that she only fights in classes or in training, almost NEVER having to fight outside of class as it is.
She is always smiling, and has a cute way of doing it as her dimples highlight the moment. She exudes a happy aura that you’d love to be around, but has a temper that could leave you frightened if you ever saw it. Her temper is sort of fiery, so it’s not unnatural to see her flare up before she snaps. If you think she can get loud when she’s happy, you’ll just have to see her mad, because it really is a side to her that’s rarely been seen.
Goals: Kiyoko really only has one goal of wanting to use her fighting skills for more than just flashy contests and Tournaments. She wants to see if she’s REALLY good or not, by fighting someone with her lethal skills.
--Other Info—
Weapons: Kiyoko carries around the holder for her wooden sword, and has a real sword that she has at home in her room. The wooden sword is decorated with silly faces and sayings, that she let her homeroom write on when she won her first tournament with it. She mainly uses martial arts, lethal and/or otherwise, even when she fights with her swords. She rarely EVER uses the real sword though..
As a sort of second hand weapon, Kiyoko is sometimes seen using sewing needles to poke at people that irritate her or that rubbed her the wrong way. Often, she uses the small sewing kit she has in her bookbag to help her with most situations…
