[b]Name:[/b] Florence Hadley
[b]Age:[/b] 21
[b]Starting Location:[/b] Feyhollow Town
[b]Rank:[/b] Beginner
[b]Organisation:[/b] Aether Foundation

[b]Appearance:[/b] A tiny, unassuming girl, Florence stands at 5'2", often with her shoulders hunched and her hazel eyes cast down. She ties her chestnut-brown hair back from her face in a braid. She usually wears simple, knee-length dresses in earthy colours, or if she wants something more practical for exploring, blouses and jeans.

[b]Biography:[/b] Florence grew up with little idea what she wanted to do. Her sister Chloe, by far the most vibrant and outgoing one, was the one who planned to help with their parents' berry farm by selling produce, leaving the timid, quiet younger sibling feeling as if she had few options other than assisting in the garden.

This led her to venture out, trying to force herself to be more adventurous and experience the world outside of the farm. One day, while walking with her sister along the outskirts of Feyhollow, she found a Pokemon at the edge of the forest. A Chikorita, sickly pale, barely moving, the leaf on her head dull and wilted. Florence rushed her to the Pokemon centre, where she stayed by her side throughout her recovery.

When the newly-healthy Chikorita decided to stay with her rather than returning to the wild, that was when Florence, aged sixteen at the time, realised what life path she wanted to take. Finding fulfillment in caring for Pokemon, she decided she'd train to become a Pokemon nurse. She took on a part-time job assisting in the Pokemon centre, and when she left school, she took her studies further.

Throughout these years, though, a problem became clear. As much as she wanted to emulate the nurse's friendly, bubbly attitude, she never felt her own personality was quite suited to working at a front desk, facing the public and comforting worried trainers. Even after completing her studies, she couldn't help feeling they may have come to nothing.

Luckily, her sister gave her a way to follow a slightly different version of her dream. Knowing how close Florence's bond with the Chikorita was, Chloe presented her with a Pokedex and Pokeball. Instead of helping Pokemon as a Pokecentre nurse right away, she'd be able to help them by travelling as a trainer, building her confidence along the way, and some day reaching her goal.

[b]Personality:[/b] The best way to describe Florence is like a folded Cherrim. She's usually quiet and shy to the point of seeming aloof, but the longer she spends with someone, the more she'll open up. She finds this easier to do with Pokemon than with humans.

A pacifist for the most part, Florence is more of a supporter than a battler. Instead of fighting and weakening wild Pokemon to catch them, she prefers to try and befriend them, though her shyness can get in the way of this and it's usually her Chikorita who does the befriending. She's not completely averse to battling, though, and will do so if she has to, or if one of her Pokemon shows a desire to fight.

Despite her timidity, she's by no means a weak person. In a crisis, she often shows a different side, knowing what to do and taking action while others are panicking. Highly determined, once she takes up a task, she'll stick to it.

[b]Extra Info:[/b] As well as knowing quite a lot about how to heal and look after Pokemon, she knows basic first aid for humans, and always carries around a medical kit. Her team will consist of many Grass types, and Pokemon associated with healing or caring for others.
