Standing at 5'8, and strong as an ox. Hara is the child of two low-level workers for Silph co. her father delivered supplies to the various pokemarts, some even across the sea. Her mother was an assembly worker. Both had aspired to be pokemon trainers as children, but neither managed to make it far, they had business to do. They lived modestly in the large town, which wasn't bad. As a young girl Hara took to playing the kid on the street, and from this early age, she became a rough-and-tumble gal, always horsing around and often times getting into things that were dangerous. All this time she watched more and more friends disappear as they got their first pokemon. Her parents had their own, but they used them for work, and as much as they loved their daughter, they couldn't give up their well-trained allies. What few they had caught as children were sacred to them and the ones they had rarely met with were given to one of Hara's older siblings, leaving her and her younger sister. She had tried other things: Fishing for a pokemon, trying to wrestle down rattata. It often left her coming home scratched up and dirty. One day, her father went off to cinnabar island to drop off a large supply of burn heals and hyper potions to Blaine, who thanked him with a nice dinner. It was there that the two hit it off, and soon enough they began to meet up irregularly every few years. Blaine became like Hara's grandfather, as he admired her burning spirit. She confessed to him her dreams of training pokemon and showed off her toughness, trying to show him she'd be a good one. Blaine admired her spirit, and when he visited her the next year he came with a pokemon: Growlithe. She was enamored by the kindness, promising to do him proud. Blaine requested only that she come to him someday and take him on, which she promised she would, adding that she'd win too. And so, at 16, she set off with a young pup at her side and her sights set on the world. Unfortunately, in her a few weeks away from home, she's found herself hopelessly unprepared. Losing to bigger parties, running out of money, and unsure how much input she should give her pokemon in battle.
