Name: André Bellamy
Gender: Male
Age: 21



Appearance: André is a tall and slender young man, standing at exactly six feet. Although he doesn't like to do so, he exercises a little bit so that he doesn't look like a fat slob, and is physically fit and toned as a result. He doesn't spend too much time in the sun, so he has a fair complexion. He keeps his blond hair short, and neatly styled at all times. There is never a hair out of place. André is a quintessential pretty-boy. He has soft facial features, that some would consider feminine. He has a heart shaped face, a small nose, and large, baby blue, almond shaped eyes, that have fairly long eyelashes attached to them. He claims are his eyes are one of his best features. His mouth is usually in some kind of smile, which shows off his perfectly white teeth. Except for his hair and eyebrows, he has no hair on his upper body. He's also pierced his earlobes so he can wear earrings.

André is very much into fashion. He likes expensive designer clothing, and he usually dresses more formally than most people his age. Being famous, he has a certain reputation to uphold, so he makes sure to look his best wherever he goes. His fancy wardrobe mostly consists of button down dress shirts, vests, trousers, and dress shoes. He even wears a tie and blazer often. He always keeps his clothes neat and tidy. It is rare to see him in a simple T-shirt and jeans. His wardrobe contains a lot of different colors, but pink is by far his favorite. These days, André wears all pink from head to toe. His current outfit consists of a pink dress shirt that fits him well. In place of a tie, he wears an elaborate necklace made from pink pearls. On top of that he wears a magenta trenchcoat. He also wears a pair of pink diamond cuff bracelets around both wrists, and a diamond ring on a pink band on his right ring finger. On the bottom he wears tight magenta trousers held up by a fuchsia leather belt with a gold buckle. His choice of footwear include a pair of fuchsia dress shoes with bright pink spats on them. He accesorizes this with his signature pink beret on his head that has a magenta heart barette attached to it, and a pair of pink diamond stud earrings decorating his ears. He carries around a pink heart shaped messenger bag that has a magenta ribbon tied into a bow attached to it, and he wears a pair of pink cat's-eye sunglasses, with diamond studded rims.

André has developed a taste for diamonds and gemstones. He will often be seen wearing various pieces of jewelry, regardless of whether it was intended for a man or not. He enjoys experimenting with fashion, and likes trying out many different things, including wearing women's clothing, wigs, and sometimes make-up. He feels women get nicer clothes than men do, and it lets him get away with wearing more jewelry than a man can. He can pass for a convincing woman when he's all made up. He often wears rose scented perfume.

Personality: First off, André has tastes that are usually considered femmine. His favorite color is pink, and a lot of his things are pink and have hearts on them. He likes fashion, and he has a taste for cute things, and he's not really emabrrased by it. He really doesn't understand why boys in this country have an issue with guys liking that kind of thing. He just guesses it's because they're insecure about their masculinity. André is very obsessed with beauty and looking good. As a movie star, he feels he has to maintain a certain image, and because people don't want to be friends with an ugly person. He always makes sure he is perfectly groomed before leaving the house, and as such it takes him a while to get ready in the morning. Because he puts so much effort into looking good, he hates getting dirty, as it ruins all the work he put in.

He really values his relationships. He doesn't like to be alone, so he goes to great lengths to make friends and fans everywhere he goes. He often attends parties to meet new people. For the same reason, he also likes love and romance, and as such he comes across as a flirt. He openly hits on people (he's openly bisexual, so guys as well as girls) he considers to be attractive, though he is usually more polite about it then most guys, because he is genuinely looking for a relationship. He is very touchy-feely in his flirting, and openly expresses affection through hugs, kisses, caressing, and other forms of touching. He enjoys it when people respond in the same way. He also likes pairing people up who he thinks would make a good couple, regardless of gender and orientation, and jokingly teasing the two involved.

He can be charming and manipulative when he wants to be. He uses his charm, charisma, and the occasional bribe to get what he wants from people. He knows just what to say to win people over, which sometimes helps him get his way in many situations. While he is polite and well-mannered, and typically acts friendly towards others, he treats people like objects to make himself feel better. He can be self-centered, and disregards how other people feel and what they need if it's not benefiting him somehow. It's not something he does consciously, it's just how he is. He was brought up believing that people's affections can be bought, and it's worked out for him so far.

Having become used to being given whatever he wants, André has been spoiled by wealth. He has an appreciation for the finer things in life. He wears expensive clothes, drives around in fancy cars, takes exotic vacations, and freely spends money like it grows on trees. He is very generous with his money, since he has so much of it, trading a a few dollars for something better is no problem. He's also found it much easier to woo people with money. He especially enjoys being famous, and being adored by many. He doesn't mind the the craziness that comes with being a cleberty either. Bad publicity is still publicity, as long as people are talking about you, then that's all that matters. André has always been accustomed to life on top. His worst fear is losing it all, whether that be ruining his movie career, or losing his hard earned friends.

History: Born in Lumiose City, Kalos, André's childhood is not what one would consider normal. His mother was Michelle LeBeau, a well known socialite and actress. She was a tabloid fixture known as much for her love life, and party girl lifestyle, than she was for her acting ability. She had flings with men, women, anybody she found interesting. She probably never would not have gotten married at all had she not gotten pregnant after a fling with fellow French actor Charles Bellamy. He was a serious actor, focused more on his craft than being a celebrity. They got married because their publicists thought it would be good for both of their careers to marry. Michelle and Charles Bellamy became even bigger stars once they got married, and had their son, which they named André. They sold the rights to their baby's first photos to a tabloid for a substantial amount of money, and both of them were offered a lot more film roles than before. They became a power couple in the film industry.

Since his birth he's been in the lap of luxury. His parents are both famous actors, and since his birth he's been in the lap of luxury. Due to his parents being famous actors, and therefore often busy, André rarely ever saw them. He was also homeschooled for a while, and was rarely able to leave the house. He felt lonely being in a big empty mansion with only caretakers that were too busy to keep the kid entertained. André's parents brought him expensive toys to make it up to him. For a while the shiny new toy would make him feel less lonely, but soon he would get bored of it, and the loneliness came back. He thought something better would solve the problem. When his parents announced a new trip, the young boy cried, and of course, his parents brought him a new, better, more expensive gift once they got back. The same thing happened, it would make him feel good for a while, but soon he'd get bored again. He would continue to ask and receive more and more expensive things throughout his childhood. It was great, and André grew accustomed to wealth and having anything he wanted on a whim. It was nice, but it still wasn't enough, the bad feelings still didn't go away.

André recieved his first Pokemon from his parents. He asked his parents for a sibling so he would have someone to play with. His parents laughed, and said they would work on it. Shortly after that, his parents brought home an adorable Cleffa that he named Jolie for their son, and the subject of wanting a sibling was dropped. André bonded with this Cleffa quickly due to their similar natures. She is the only gift his parents gave him that André hasn't grown tired of. She is the closest friend André has ever had. After doing research, and learning about the Fairy type, as well as the complete lack of male Fairy type specialists, André decided he would catch more Fairy types one day.

At some point, his parents thought it was a good idea for him to start interacting with other kids, so they enrolled him in a private school. When André started going to school, and meeting other people his age, he got a lot of attention from them due to being the child of famous movie stars. At recess, every kid wanted to play with him. Being with others made him feel just as good, if not better, than opening up a brand new toy. It was then he thought that if new toys won't help, then maybe people will. During this time, he made a small group of friends that André was very close to. They were all different, but somehow they all get along. They all dreamed they would go on a journey together. For a while, André was happy. Then he had to move, and leave his new friends behind, and André was sad again.

At the age of thirteen, André's family moved to Virbank City, to further their careers. There, his parents encouraged their son to follow in their footsteps, and become an Actor. They put him in acting classes, and used their connections to pull a few strings, and get him and his Cleffa a starring role in a major film. He didn't want to do this at first, but did it anyway to please his parents. While making the movie, he came to enjoy being on a movie set, and acting. When his first movie went to theaters, and became a box-office success, he enjoyed all the fame and attention it brought him. Or more specifically, he liked all the adoring fans. He also enjoyed the piles of money, expensive things, and all the glamour that being a movie star brings. He decided to pursue a film career, while also attending school when he wasn't filming. After doing that for a few years, he became as famous and successful as his parents. He is often chased by Papparazzi and crazed fans, and he is also often the subject of ridiculous rumors in gossip magazines. Usually, they involve him spending absurd amounts of money on something lavish, being seen at a party, or romance rumors with various other celeberties. (Not long after hitting puberty, he discovered how attractive people were, and the joys of love. Although he's never had a serious romantic relationship, much to his disappointment.) He doesn't mind all the craziness that much. As long as he has all his adoring fans, then all is well.

André has everything now, devoted fans, a luxurious life, and piles of money at his disposal. Despite this, he still isn't satisfied. He feels like something is missing, but he isn't sure what that is. He decided to take a break from making movies for a while to try the Pokemon trainer thing he never had a chance to do. He decided the best place to do that, would be in his home region of Kalos. The only thing he didn't want to do was travel alone. So gathered up his old group of friends, and go on andventure with them.

Other: He carries around pink roses to give to people.

He has lots of fans in Kalos, so he is often surrounded by screaming teenage girls (and some guys)

He speaks with a French Kalosian accent, and uses French words in his speech often, but is still able to speak English just fine.

Pokemon Party:

Name: Jolie
Species: Cleffa
Gender: Female



Personality: She is very much like Andre in a number of ways. She has starred in several movies with her trainer, and is also a celebrity herself. She likes being the center of attention. When no one is paying attention to her, she will do something cute, to get noticed. In general, she likes to dress up, and she enjoys using her cute looks to get what she wants. Aside from that, she is a friendly and playful Pokemon, who really loves how much her trainer spoils her rotten.

History: Jolie was gifted to André by his parents after he requested a sibling. His parents really didn't want to have another child, so they gave him a Pokemon instead.

Other: She wears a large red bow on top of her head, and a diamond studded collar around her neck. Occasionally, André will dress her up in clothes made for her. Otherwise, she looks like any other Clefa.

She is as much of a celebrity as André is. She’s been in many movies with her trainer, and has appeared on the covers of many Pokemon magazines.

She loves attention and being in front of the camera. If she sees anyone with a camera around, she will try to jump in and be in the picture, whether she’s wanted or not.

Her favorite treat is Pokepuffs

Name: Kaylan Osborne
Nickname: Kay
Gender: Male
Age: 20

Appearance: Tall, dark, and gloomy. Kay stands at around 6'1", though you sometimes wouldn't know it based on his slouchy posture. He's also pretty toned and athletic, despite his choice of attire making that hard to notice. He does wear a tight shirt and slacks that would otherwise show off some of his physique, but he also wears a long black poncho of all things over the top of that which generally hides what his physique looks like underneath. He used to keep his dark hair short, with blue highlights along the combed back top. These days, though, his hair is a bit longer and not quite as cleanly combed. Instead it's usually just lazily tied back into a ponytail of some kind, although the blue highlights are still visible. Once upon a time his previous travels favored him with a bit of a tan as a result of time spent outdoors. That's not the case anymore, it seems, his skin now more on the pale side - as if he's spent some time living as a shut in.

Personality: Kay would call himself a "realist". But most people instead call him an outright pessimist. He's got a bit of a gloomy outlook, typically the first one to question a plan or even just outright poke holes in it because he sees it as foolish or pointless. All this is a far cry from the fiery ball of determination he used to be back when his friends first knew him. He still values his friends and relationships, otherwise he wouldn't have been convinced to go on this journey at all. And yet, when the chips are down and it's time to fight or battle, sometimes you can still see an occasional spark of the determined trainer he used to be. But it's often drowned out by an overwhelming drive to win, and prove something either to the world or to himself that no one but Kay knows.

History: While Kaylan himself was born in Vanville Town, his parents both originally immigrated to Kalos from the faraway Johto region. Among his friends, he was also the one that originally wanted to be a Pokemon Trainer the most. He suggested they all give it a try, but they all had their own interests and passions that eventually made them drift apart over time. But Kay, fiery kid he was at the time, didn't let this deter him. He'd go on a journey and take on the Pokemon League alone if he had to. He began with a Froakie courtesy of the Professor that he named Jiraiya, and left on the journey that would ultimately break him.

It went well for a good while. Kay was able to challenge gyms and win their badges, all the while gradually developing a team of trusted Pokemon along the way. But he did have a rival at the time, a snobby prep school kid from Lumiose City named Dorian Young. Apparently the heir to some Fortune 500 company, Dorian was rich and not afraid to remind the rest of the world of that fact. It also became clear early on that his wealth afforded Dorian a distinct advantage as a Prokemon Trainer, whether it was higher quality Poke Balls or Vitamins that could make his Pokemon stronger. But here again, Kaylan refused to let that deter him. And for the most part, he kept pace with Dorian despite everything. At least, for a while anyway. Everything changed at the Kalos League Conference.

By this point Kaylan hadn't seen Dorian in a while. But he was fully expecting the jerk to turn up at the conference with all eight badges in tow. And sure enough, he did. But it soon became apparent why he had shown up fashionably late. He claimed to have been doing "special training" that allowed him to unlock abilities for his Pokemon that would make them unbeatable. And when the battles began, he showed off exactly what that ability was. His Ace Pokemon - Gallade - had somehow gained the power to evolve into a new form during battle that heightened its abilities in ways Kay had never seen before then. Kay refused to be intimidated and he battled his way past the first two rounds and was paired against Dorian in the third.

And while Jiraiya - now a fully evolved Greninja - fought valiantly, in the end he just couldn't overcome the power of the evolved Gallade and was defeated. In the end, victory went to Dorian. "I told you, didn't I? You never stood a chance. Worthless nobodies like you never do." He arrogantly said, gloating over his victory. Eliminated from the tournament, Kaylan left without even staying to see who won in the end. He was too devastated, both by the loss and by the cruel words Dorian told him afterward.

When he returned home, Kay found himself unwilling to talk to anyone about what happened. He holed up in his room for a while and then one night he and Jiraiya left town without even telling anyone where they were going. Some time after that, Kaylan found himself living in the remote Ninja Village. He followed rumors and stories about the place where People and Greninja both live and hone their skills. Maybe here he and Jiraiya could find some kind of clarity. And it was here they remained. Kay was just over 15 when he first left on his Gym Challenge, and had turned 16 by the time he had returned from his crushing defeat at the Kalos Conference. He remained at Ninja village for nearly four years. Until one day - against all odds - he received a letter.

Who could possibly have found him in order to send a letter? Well it turned out to be from one his old friends. André apparently decided he wanted to give the Pokemon Trainer thing a try. He was kidding, right? Now he wanted to go on a journey? Still valuing the old friendships he previously had, Kay set out for Vanville Town. If nothing else, he would tell André in person that he had already taken on the League once and didn't really want to do it again. But then again... maybe he should try again? Either way, Kaylan was going to Vanville empty handed, with none of his Pokémon in tow.

Other:

Jiraiya (Not in Party)
Species: Greninja

Gender: Male

Personality: Loyal to a fault. After already going on one journey with his trainer, Jiraiya has become insistent on staying by Kaylan's side no matter where he goes.

History: He was first given to Kaylan when the latter began his first journey in Vanville Town. Things didn't start out smoothly, and in fact they were almost defeated in the first gym until their bond pulled them through. He's been a loyal and steadfast partner ever since.

Name: Selen Night “Siloh”
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Height: 5’6”
Weight: 120
Appearance:
Siloh is a short and lean young man of deeper honey complexion. He isn’t quite toned physically, with the exception of his calves being bulky from long endurance walks. His frame is a small hourglass, along with the lean shape gives a sharp look to his elbows and his knees. His shoulders and hips are out a few inches more than his middle. He doesn't look to eat much.

His hair is a messy mix of spiked bangs that partially cover his eyes. The hair had stripes of gray in it sense high school from unusual levels of stress, and has sense been dyed into a deep cosmic purple all around. His eyes often look wide and bulging open, with their deep brown irises that nearly look like black voids. Heavy grey bags are just below them from nights of staying up late either ghost hunting, editing, researching, or all three. It leaves him with a rather intense stare.

Onto register for his adventure in Kalos, he was sent off with frilly shirts! Most of which were white or lavender, a purple bowtie, and jean shorts. Most of this is covered up by a large black baggy zip up hoodie, with the exclusion of a pair of heavy duty boots. He nearly always has a strapped camcorder on his left hand.

Recently he put tattoos of the ‘evil eye’ on both his left and right palm.

Personality:
Siloh is typically quiet and non-confrontational unless he’s cornered. He hesitates to directly engage with others he’s not familiar with in some form of another, which may sometimes confuse others as him being aloof or anti-social. While he rarely will go out of his way to initiation social situations, he does enjoying being involved in them to some capacity. He’ll be the quiet one in the room, but does genuinely enjoy being in the room and watching others. He can be very easy to open up when discussing his favorite topics, or with others he’s been around for a long time. While socially quiet, he tends to notice and look at the small details of situations. How many times a person moved their pen, and perhaps why, a button that’s missing from a shirt, small changes in tone that sound off for one reason or another.

He struggles with an underlying envy of wanting to achieve greatness or prowess from watching others. This envy has bled into an increased motivation in his own obsessions & interest to push himself, frequently too far. If someone around him has achieved something of note, he’ll want to push to find something out there soon after! Sometimes endangering himself, or his health by obsessing over the matter. Despite his surface meek nature, he can be rather ferocious once set in his way. Part of the vigor may easily leak out when expressing excitement about ghosts, monsters, abandoned or historical sites, or film editing among a few. Backed into a corner, the underlying ferocity turns to rash decision making or going to dangerous places.

Despite his meekness & envy, he loves to share achievements and adventurers with those around him. Being loyal to a fault for those who are willing to be share adventurers with him, and be near him. Especially of interest of a darker nature. While he’d not actively choose to be malicious unless backed into a corner, he may easily excuse or ignore non-moral actions of others around him, unless they directly hurt him or others within his immediate circle.

History:
In early childhood Selen lived in Kalos with his dad, inside of an old rental duplex near Lumiose city,Kalos. His mom left when Selen’s older brother passed away from an incident as a trainer. Selen has trouble remembering his mom at all, but has vague clouded memories of his older brother. His dad, Tazen, was a rookie cinematographer with an upcoming reputation for romance films & niche sci-fi. His talent mixed with a charismatic personality, though womanizing helped pay the bills. In the meantime Selen would be in the editing studios to be left nearby, or left at home with Tazen’s grumpig to babysit. Rummel, was a partner from Tazen’s former trainer days. Selen couldn’t be around during certain filming shoots, and that’s where Rummel covered. It wasn’t a strong social life, but Selen wasn’t a social child yet. He did, envy those who were, and Rummel was a strong but quiet listener. Being a psychic pokemon helped as well.

Selen had been enrolled into a private school nearby at age ten. Rummel and Tazen had pulled some strings and budgeting and it was either private school or a larger apartment. Private schooling won, with some assistance. A possible upcoming big film back in Hoeenn was rumored to be in script production in the background as well, making the choice easier if Tazen needed to move back to Hoeen instead. He officially met André and the others there! Selen had met Michelle LeBeau quite a few times, often in passing. His dad had talked fondly of her on a frequent basis. He had even seen André around or in passing photos a couple times, but never formally met them face to face. Sadly, and oddly it seemed like early schooling went by in a blurr. At times, it feels like there’s a shroud covering portions of his memory with it. He vaguely recollects wanting to go an adventure, and a small one he tried to invite friends too.

He rough remembers a halloween trip with some friends to an abandoned farm. He struggles to remember who went with him, and how exactly he got there. But he does vaguely remember ending up in a siloh and having to claw his way out using a cloth blanket. He remembers, something had terrified him out of his wits, and thinks he was picked up at some point. After that incident, he got a nickname for laughing the whole thing off, and also used it as part of his video channel name: “Siloh Investigates.”

He didn’t really use it for more than school projects versus ghostly investigations until highschool. But things got, awkward before then. André moved away, and Siloh struggled to not be a complete shut-in, constantly feeling drained.

The events of the abandoned farm & André leaving to Unova, not long after affected him. He felt, (and was) haunted after the fact. He continuously felt drained around the house, to the point Rumel grew worried. Sometimes at night Rumel would even wake up Siloh, and force them out of the house! It did give him an excuse to sneak into film editing studio’s and hang out with his dad more often. When he wasn’t spotting technical errors or weird things found on editing tapes, he’d officially start making “Siloh Investigates”. Turning the channel into a semi-montlhy series on spooky happenings and investigations to get him out of the house. It also gave him something, that only he could make, or see first before anyone else.

The channel became a minor obsession. Especially partway in highschool where Siloh & Tazen moved back to Hoeen for the filming of the new horror romance, “Curse of the Spiral Dance.” The two moved into the family house in Mauville city, his aunt had been taking care of it until recently. She wanted to pursue her degree in Unova, and seems she stayed. Sense moving, Tazen started dating, faitfully, to an electrical engineer & prop artist Morine. Despite Tazen & Morine claiming it’s “nothing serious” both Siloh & Tazen know better. They’re still dating to this day! While dad was gone more, & rummel giving Siloh increasing freedom from their age, “Siloh Investigates” became a priority. He actually wanted, craved, need to make something of himself like other upcoming graduates.

“Siloh Investigates” could edit, sure. But he wasn’t charismatic from the camera. He couldn’t or rather, struggled to find amazing camera shots like his father could, and he wouldn’t dare to make stuff just because! He grew with envy seeing the natural talents of those around him, and all he could do was make others look better. He needed too, no he would live for, finding something on his own! The thrill and chills of ghost hunting had captured his heart since middle school! Now he needed to prove himself, he wanted to capture something no one else could. He needed to catch a ghost on camera and the spooky happenings without editing. Not just ghost types either, but actual, human ghosts or occult mysticism! Something he couldn’t just edit in, but capture with his own eyes, his own mind, and hopefully his camera. He had searched plenty of places before, and oddly sometimes had memory lapses in them, but no, he needed something, spookier!

An abandoned and warded off course, hidden through the woods of Route 123, and just bit inward from the coastal cliffs. He’d visit day after day, week, after week, for years! Always feeling a “presence” nearby! It would started off small, but showed the signs that this place was the jackpot. Small items would move, and go missing, unexplainable noises, increased memory lapses that left him back outside. Jackpot! He’d use the place as a constant “return-to-sight”, and after some digging (both research and literal) found a trapdoor under one of the bedrooms. Entering, he could feel a familiar sensation of a shroud covering him, covering his eyes, before he came upon an occult shrine & ghosts on the other side of the room!

The specters commanded him to leave, and he did so gladly. Thinking he finally caught it all on his big breakthrough! A joyous occasion.
Returning home, he didn’t quite catch the vision he had hoped for.. but with months of editing and determination-! He came away with a blurry single frame and sleep deprivation. He didn’t know when, but the briefest moment he had passed out, again.

The sensation of a cloth blanket jolted him back awake once more. Only for that very blanket to fly off him in alarm, a shuppet! A shuppet had followed him home. The mixture of shock, awe, and perhaps his brain being fried from being awake in the first place shot out of him! And into the nearby computer behind him. A new video file added:
The video was of a ghostly family pointing directly at Siloh, commanding him to “LEAVE!”
Along with the imprint of a fuzzy memory. A memory of friends long ago. An agreement among all of them one day-:”To go on an adventure!”
It wasn’t long after that, that Siloh received a letter to return to Kalos with André and the others.

Other:
There had been a small incident in middle school where he was challenged to a pokemon battle after being cornered. Being bullied for turning into a recluse. He didn’t have a pokemon that he was aware of, and fought directly instead. He still has an uncanny instinct to fight hand-to-hand when being challenged to a battle, but knows better.

The idea of being a trainer didn’t appeal to him when he was little, since it sounded like being a homeless vagabond. It wasn’t until later that the freedom that came with it, along with personal growth became increasingly appealing, even something to be envious of.

He’s an urban explorer of abandoned buildings, especially ones claimed to be haunted. Interested in mysticism and the occult along with it.

He constantly carries around an old video camera, and record just about everything in his day-to-day life. Having a bit of a minor obsession over it in case he catches anything ‘spooky’ or ‘mystical’ on tape.

He accidentally packed feminine clothing along with him, some of which include skirts. A desperate need for ghost hunting equipment, paying viewership lead to a ghost hunting live stream in a cosplay. It paid more than enough to cover the equipment.

(Weakness) He is allergic to most perfumes, excluding those made solely from natural elements. Leading to sneezing, tearing up, loss of concentration, and long lasting rashes if exposed for more than a few minutes.

Psychic:
Video thoughtography- The ability to take images from their mind, typically memories and to convert or “burn” it into a video or film medium by touch.

Spiritual Perception- The ability to see ghosts and similar supernatural entities.

(Weakness)-Open Channel- Connected to spirits and left vulnerable to them. Open to possession by said creatures at a higher rate, and to some of their influences.

Name: Nikola Blake Blank
Pronouns: whatever
Age: 21
Appearance: Nikola’s hair is chin length, wavy, and dirty blonde. She has hazel-green eyes. Once you stop trying to figure out which species of carnivorous lizard her resting facial expression resembles, she's quite attractive (though some may find that attractive to begin with). Standing at 5'8" her long legs makes her seem taller than she really is. She’s muscular but soft with the kind of build you get from hauling bags of pokefeed all day and having to wrestle angry injured pokemon. These physical activities have also helped her to become incredibly flexible and agile. She is also quite androgynous.

Personality:
Nikola is… odd to say the least. This of course isn’t surprising as she has a passion for psychic pokemon and “normal psychic type trainer” might as well be an oxymoron. Especially those of the gym leader aspiration.
She can switch from chatty and animated to dead silent and still in a heartbeat. Both modes of behavior are oddly endearing and unnerving in their own rights. If you look into her eyes, it may look like there is either nobody home OR altogether too much going on inside her head.
Despite her odd mannerisms, she’s nothing to be scared of, and really isn’t all that weird when you get to know her. She’ll gladly engage in conversation with anyone and anything. She’s incredibly kind, knowledgeable, always willing to commit to the bit, and not easily pushed around by others. She can, however, be easily frustrated by the limitations of her own body and may push herself further than she ought to go. She also is also easily frustrated when interrupted from deep focus.

History:

Nikola has moved around a lot during her life due to her parents jobs as investigative journalists/researchers obsessed with legendary and mythical pokemon, and with those who try to use those pokemon for their own gain. It’s probably not a good idea to bring your toddler along when you’re chasing ancient gods and power-hungry criminals, but Nikolas survived her childhood without any major injuries or trauma so it turned out alright.

Nikola ended up in a private school during her family's stay in Kalos. She ended up catching Andre’s attention by accident. Andre was just another student to Nikola, and Andre (having never been treated as a normal child before due to being the son of celebrities) found this lack of interest or obsession intriguing. They ended up making good friends for each other as they both had spent their childhoods not interacting much with other children. Nikola has currently settled in Unova and works at a wild Pokemon rehab center and has plans to add a gym to the operation as a means of funding it.

She was surprised to see the letter, and the idea of Andre going on a Pokemon trainer adventure amused her. She wondered if the pampered glitter bomb fully understood what that entailed. It sounded like fun. Even better than fun were the finances to go and stay in the Kalos region, where her beloved Metang was being treated for injury at a specialized poke center. She had been unable to go with them due to the rehab center being understaffed and lack of finances to stay near the specialized center. The rehab, however, had recently gained plenty of dependable volunteers, and this provided the perfect opportunity for Nikola to gain the experience needed to become a gym leader.

As many psychic specialists do, Nikola has some psychic quirks of her own. A little telekinesis and psychic communication with psychic pokemon.
While she usually wears practical clothing due to her work, she loves a chance to dress up.
When battling she prefers to use a number of code words or signals to communicate with her pokemon.



On the plane ride there, Nikola feels she is missing something, though can’t put her finger on what exactly. Oh well. Feels that way whenever you travel, doesn’t it?
We’ll see how long it takes her to realize she doesn't have a Pokémon with her.

Name: Gabriel Agate
Gender: Male
Age: 21

Appearance:
Pale skin, sharp features, a slim build, and a consistent frown. Gabriel radiates 'overworked' energy. He's got striking brown eyes with slight bags under them, light brown (approaching dirty blond) hair in a slightly shaggy almost-bowlcut, and a pair of thin red rimmed glasses. Gabriel stands at roughly 5'10, and is probably underweight. He is stuck in the permanent state of 'business casual at a minimum' for his wardrobe, which for a journey across a region is going to be miserable. Don't go hiking in dress pants! Overall, Gabriel has naturally attractive features that he does not particularly work to maintain beyond the level of presentable. He's far too busy maintaining his career's momentum instead.


Personality: Gabriel is a bit neurotic. It's always been the case, even when he was young he'd be sweating bullets at the idea of disappointing one of his teachers. As he's grown and been put into a bureaucracy job for the Kalos government, that part of his personality has grown. Naturally nervous, soft-spoken and weak to peer pressure, quick to advise caution and avoid risks, and concerned for the safety of others. As you can see, Gabriel had a fair share of good reasons to not want to do the whole 'journey' thing. He's not all agitation and jumpiness, though. Gabriel's work ethic is exceptional, and his mind is quite sharp. Once he sets his mind to something, he devours any information on the subject he can get his hands on in order to better complete it. He is also, and has always been, the 'mom friend.' The one who always has healthy snacks and bandages on hand, just in case.

Gabriel does have a special, unique talent though. Something he is more than happy to weaponize, something that has carried him through life. A uniquely high tolerance for boredom. Sit him down in front of a dry lecture, he won't even get antsy. Make him explain a complex spreadsheet organization system three times? No problem. That's not to say he has infinite patience, just that his patience drains at an incredibly slow rate when involved in things most people would call 'dull' or 'dry'.



Other:
Gabriel is nervous around Ghost type Pokemon, and his favorite type is generally Steel.

Gabriel's favorite food is Quiche, and his least favorite is anything bitter.

While not a Pokemon trainer, and seemingly not desiring to be one, Gabriel does enjoy watching and analyzing League battles.

Name: Beau Belrose
Gender: Male
Age: 20

Appearance:

Beau is a tall man standing at a little over six feet in height. He is slender with all-around defined muscles, especially in his arms and abdominals. He normally shows them off with his skimpier choice of clothes. There is a light tan to his skin from constant sunlight. He maintains it to keep it an even tan that isn't too dark. It's also very smooth and blemishless due to that same care. A spot of color on him is two tattoos: a small violet heart under his left eye and a pink-purple crescent moon on his left shoulder. Other than those, his skin is bare and healthy.

On top of a very handsome yet boyish face is curly golden blond hair. Beau's hair is more unruly than it appears but with some extra effort and hair product, he manages it enough so it looks only moderately curly. It's a surprisingly neat-looking hairstyle while also looking very fluffy. He always styles it with some very cute hair clips. The curls frame his face along his brows and cheekbones. The strands don't extend far from his head. In the middle of the frame are some well trimmed, thin eyebrows and very unique eyes. Beau's eyes are two different colors: the right one is blue and the left one is purple which draws people's attention to them. His eyes are a little on the wide side adding a smidge of youthfulness to the otherwise adult man's body.

To show off his well-built fit body, Beau wears a lot of sleeveless tops, mid-drifts, and form-fitting shirts. The quality of his clothes are high-quality material to give the man a very posh stylish look. There is a common thing about the clothes he wears which is they are always either purple, pink, or blue with purple being the most commonly worn color and blue being the least. Beau takes very good care of every article of clothing he has, so there is never a stain, wrinkle, or thread out of place making him look very prim. Due to traveling, he's only brought four outfits along with him. The only jewelry he wears is earrings in his left ear. Though it is typically a couple of purple studded ones, he is also known to wear different colors and a couple of dangling earrings.

Personality: Most people view Beau as a charismatic, bubbly, stereotypical dumb blonde. These aren’t exactly incorrect descriptions. He has an aura about him that draws people in and a friendly attitude that keeps people from leaving. Despite how people appear or act toward him, the man is always willing to interact with them. It is hard to tell if he doesn't notice or simply doesn't care when people treat him coldly. More times than not, he is aware of animosity pointed towards him. However, due to his more narcissistic personality, he believes people are just flustered and unaccustomed to being around someone as remarkable as himself. Beau thinks very highly of himself to the point he just feels sad that some people are so very insecure being around him. This makes him try to be the bigger man and be friendly with them in the more. With that behavior of not acknowledging obvious disapproval, he comes off as not very bright. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to his field of interest.

Beau is just a very upbeat and extroverted guy who loves to be around people and the center of attention. Being pretty good at reading people, so he uses that to get more compliments out of the people around him. Despite having oozing confidence he is actually quite the lonely boy. Beau tends to cling to people he really cares about though as he has gotten older, he learned to hold back to not scare people away. A lot of this clinginess gets transferred to his Pokemon so that he doesn't frighten his human friends. When it comes to romantic relationships, Beau is quite the hopeless romantic type. He starts off flirty toward those that interest him but doesn't act more than that. Once he falls in love, he falls quickly and hard for the person. He is very experienced in romance understanding very well how to swoon others, but his clingy tendencies become much harder to hold back. The man also has a very bad attraction to bad boys despite knowing that he shouldn't.

Beau has a bit of an entitled attitude about how people should treat him. He grew up privileged with a lot of money and an attractive face, which caused people to ogle and indulge him. Thus making him believe people should always treat him like that. He is a very well-known and admired model in the Kalos region, so he also thinks everyone should praise his good looks and style no matter where he goes. Being quite arrogant, Beau walks with his head held high and there are few words that other people can throw at him to upset him. Even though Beau knows he could easily win others over with money, he would rather have them favor him as a person. To achieve this, he is willing to compromise. If all else fails, however, it's not unusual for him to use his wealth and status to get on that person's good side.

Beau is interested in traveling around Kalos with friends, but he doesn't particularly care about becoming a Pokemon Trainer. He is slightly more interested in pokemon contests but not by much. Beau is just not a competitive type of person though once he is in, he does the best within his ability.

History: Beau Belrose grew up in a single-parent household and he is the only son of the world-renowned fashion designer, Roselia Belrose. Due to him being the result of a one-night stand, he has never met his father. However, he learned later in life that he was the secret child of the actor Antonie Regnard. He was born in the Lumiose City, Kalos, and lived his entire life there. Despite only having one parent, Beau lived luxuriously with his mother's high pay and his father's compensation money. Since she worked full-time, Beau spent many days alone under the hired help's supervision. So he grew up craving the attention of others when his mother was away. The praises of people around him helped fill the void of loneliness he felt so strongly. Thus it became Beau's everyday goal to do something to get recognition.

Desperate to impress people, Beau started watching people closely to see their reactions to his actions. Thus he drove into activities that got people to turn their heads toward him such as cutely done hairstyles and stylish clothing. Then he would cater to others' feelings which made him quite popular among older people and later with his peers when he enrolled in a private school. His popularity was second to only one, André Bellamy whose parents were actors. Eventually when they finally interacted with one other Beau found a sort of kinship to him. This was similar to several people that he became close with. Being praised and hanging out with people who genuinely liked him felt more fulfilling than people just being nice because his mom was famous. The time with his close-knit friends is still his most cherished memory.

But life goes on and things change. Slowly but surely his group of friends started drifting away from each other and he lost contact with them. That increased his loneliness exponentially and he subconsciously attempted to fill that sadness more than ever. So whenever he was by myself, he would seek companionship. A lover that would stay with him all day and night although these relationships didn't last too long. It was around that time he was scouted to be a model. Though he was still a teen, he had a good fashion sense thanks to his mother, who was more than happy to design clothes for her son, and the thought of more attention made this opportunity he couldn't pass. Even as he became a successful, well-known model within the Kalos region, that feeling of lonesomeness would still creep in. At least he got his adorable little Espurr, Ciel would be with him now when he felt alone.

Then he received a letter from his old friend André, who he knew had become an actor. He thought several times to reach out to him but the man had beaten him to it. The letter talked about going on a Pokemon journey along with several of their mutual friends. While Beau wasn't particularly interested in going on a pokemon journey, the thought of reuniting with his old school friends was just too big of a chance to let slip by. So Beau immediately took a break from his modeling and began preparing for it.

Other: 
- He has a distinct Kalosian (french) accent and will interject the words into his normal speech. He tries to keep it to a minimum to not confuse others.

- Beau likes cute things and sweets and he is not embarrassed to admit it.

- He is quite good at sewing and stitching as he once thought about being a fashion designer like his mother.

- Beau is bisexual and will go out with anyone who is at least mildly good-looking.

- His Pokemon are rarely ever in their Pokeballs.

Pokemon

Nickname: Ciel
Species: Espurr
Gender: Male

Personality: Most get the impression that Ciel is a shy and quiet Pokemon by the way he stares expressionlessly at a random spot and avoids strangers' eyes. This is actually because the Espurr doesn't like interacting with strangers, so he just silently stares off as a way to ignore them. The Espurr barely even wants to interact with other Pokemon, he is quite antisocial. He is very affectionate only towards Beau looking up at him endearingly and nuzzling him to get him to notice him. He gets pretty annoyed when others take his master's attention away from him. Ciel is quite spoiled and demands vocally when he wants something. Despite being quite a prima donna, Beau is an enabler who keeps spoiling him the same.

History: A couple years back, during Beau's eighteen birthday his ex-lover, Derrick, got him Ciel as a gift. He was newly hatched but unwanted by his previous trainer due to him being runt and not very strong. So he entered Beau's life with distrust toward others. Despite his strong defiance and uncaring attitude, the blond genuine fondness and care toward him warmed his frozen heart.

Other: 
- Ciel is noticeably smaller than the average Espurr.
- Sometimes he's wearing a very cute outfit.
- Has the ability Infiltrator.
- He's normally being carried by Beau.

Sebastian a butler Indeedee also accompanies Beau. He is not officially his Pokemon. He was lent to him mostly to help with day-to-day tasks on his journey. The Pokemon is quite good at attending to him despite his short stature. Some could say he is one heck of a butler Indeedee.
