[hider=Mia Kita] [b]Name:[/b] Mia Kita [b]Appearance:[/b][img]http://orig04.deviantart.net/9753/f/2014/326/4/c/miu_by_leviathandemon-d87bywl.png[/img] Her dress is violet with over-the-knee white socks and white arm warmers. Her hair is a dirty-blond color, and her eyes are brown. [b]Age:[/b] 13 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Personality:[/b] Mia is, in short, a bully. She'll only give respect to those with strong pokemon, and even then she's not exactly the type to fawn over others. To her, strength is defined by raw power and she prefers strong attackers to walls or speedsters. Those trainers who don't meet her standards aren't worth her time, in her mind, and at best are brushed off and ignored. At worst, they are actively mocked, though she does draw the line at intentional physical harm. Pokemon that aren't strong enough are tossed aside. She'll push herself and her pokemon to the utmost limit to become the strongest trainer of all, risking injury in the process. A surefire way to piss her off is to try to interrupt her training. She's been called on her attitude before by other trainers and has shown no desire to change. Outside of pokemon, she's slow to kindness but equally slow to conversation. While good at battling (at least in trainer school), she's terrible at socializing and easily lost in a crowd. Outside of pokemon, she's reluctant to speak her mind as, though she knows a lot about pokemon, she's not so knowledgeable about other topics. She doesn't need anyone's approval, but she cannot stand pity, to her or to others. She does have a bit of a fondness for customizing pokeballs and is not above spending money on the necessary supplies to do so. She's actually quite fond of flying-type pokemon, and wants one large enough to ride. As a final note, she has a weakness for black licorice. [b]Brief Bio:[/b] Mia hails from Kiloude City, oldest of three children. As such, there's barely been a day where she went without seeing a pokemon battle. She's grown up all her life with pokemon - her dad worked as a store clerk, selling TMs of powerful moves to elite trainers, and her mom fought in the Battle Maison. Only a few were tame enough to not try lashing out at a young girl. Her childhood was normal enough, with caring, if perhaps tired and preoccupied, parents, and neither she nor her siblings were left wanting. Once she was old enough, she was sent off to a trainer academy to learn how to fight. Mia quickly reached the head of the class, between her tendency to train and study battle strategies constantly, and her tendency to pick the meaner pokemon to fight with. She developed a rather intimidating aura around her classmates and got in trouble more than once. Her parents didn't see the point in punishing her if she was actually learning how to battle well. Not once did she call home, however - she refused to give anyone an excuse to accuse her of relying on her parents to learn how to battle. The Kita family received their letter from Professor Apple, much like the three other families. After much discussion, her parents decided that, despite the fact their middle child had just turned 10, Mia had experience in battling and so would probably leave the best impression on the professor. As such, she was given a train ticket to Lumiose City to go meet Professor Apple at Aquacorde City. [b]Starter Pokemon:[/b] Poliwag [b]Starter's Personality:[/b] Poliwag's a bit difficult to control - she despises schedules and routines, preferring variation in her days. She's by no means a bad fighter, and will work hard to improve, but drawn-out battles bore her and she'd sooner lose her advantage than play a waiting game. She gets jealous easily, especially when she's not the center of attention, but she is capable of warmth and friendliness. For an armless pokemon, she's surprisingly graceful.
