This battle better not put me back to sleep.[/color][/b][/i][/center] [hr] [h3][b][color=pink]MAIN PROFILE[/color][/b][/H3] [b][color=pink]Name:[/color][/b] Melissa "Mimi" Shannon [color=pink][b]Age:[/b][/color] 21 [color=pink][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Female [color=pink][b]Birthplace:[/b][/color] Wyndon [color=pink][b]Appearance Information:[/b][/color] Mimi stands at about 5'4", not too tall, but not too short either. Her skin is fair, and she has a thin frame, but puberty has been good to her, and she developed nicely in all the right places. Her silky smooth hair is normally a chocolate brown color and is quite long, falling past her hips. She dyes her hair a bright pink color, because pink is a much more fun color. Her bangs are also somewhat long, so she has to part them to the side to keep them from falling over her eyes when she isn't sleeping. Her eyes are a brown color, and are large and childlike, with long eyelashes attached to them. They are often half closed, so she usually looks like she just woke up from a nap (Which, is the case with her most times.) If you didn't know her, one would never suspect that Mimi comes from wealth. Don't get her wrong, she likes to make herself look pretty sometimes, but she prefers comfort over fashion, and she doesn't always feel like putting in the extra effort. She also shops at thrift stores more often than at high end Department Stores, so her clothes aren't always the best that money can buy. She likes to wear the colors purple and pink, as they are Musharna colors. When she doesn't need to look nice she dresses casually, wearing clothes that are comfortable and that don't require too much fuss. She is usually seen sporting a simple pink blouse and purple jeans. On her feet she wears a pair of pink flats. Apart from a lavender bow she wears clipped to her bangs, and a pair of purple stud earrings shaped like the flowers on Munna, she rarely wears any other accessories, and has little need for make-up. [color=pink][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Mimi is a relaxed, cheerful, carefree, laid-back girl. Often just going with the flow. She is easy to get along with, and it is nigh impossible to get her angry due to her calm nature. She is a lazy, and she often procrastinates to get work done. She has a habit of falling asleep at the most inappropriate times. She claims this is a side effect of being around Musharna and their Dream Mist all the time, but that's not true. This is just an excuse for her to get out of situations she’s not comfortable with. Besides sleeping, Mimi enjoys Video Games, Cartoons, and all sorts of nerdy interests. While she likes the lifestyle and glamour that come with being a Gym Leader, she doesn’t always have interest in the responsibilities that role requires. This leads to a few disagreements with her mother, and others in a position of authority over her. All she wants to do is play video games, sleep all day, draw, and maybe conduct some Pokemon battles. She has very little desire to do much else. Though she is lazy, she is by no means stupid. When Mimi is actually determined to do something, she can produce fantastic results. She enjoys battling and is quite good at it. She is observant, and knows how to read people, which gives her some insight into other people's feelings, as well as being good at strategizing for battles. She also developed a special bond with her Psychic Pokemon, allowing her to command them without having to say a word. Although she doesn't like bragging about it, She enjoys the lifestyle that being born into a wealthy family, and now being a Gym Leader brings. Not having to work regular hours, being able to sleep untill noon if she so chooses, going to extravagant parties, and being able to spend large amounts of money on anything your heart desires. She just wishes she didn’t have to deal with actual responsibilities. [color=pink][b]Short Biography:[/b][/color] Mimi grew up in a very privileged household. She lived in a large mansion in Wyndon, and lived a very comfortable life. Since her birth, Mimi's mother wanted her to make a name for herself, and do something successful in her life. She was a Shannon, and Shannons don't just settle for average, they strived for greatness. Mimi really didn’t have much of a desire to do much of anything. School was there... quite frankly she found it boring. All they do is yap about things that don’t matter. Mimi spent most of her time playing video games, napping, and cared very little for anything else. What she really wanted to do was be an artist, but her strict mother shot that down. Her disinterest in doing anything productive got her into arguments with her mother. The arguments were mostly one sided, as Mimi was never one to get angry, and she often pretended to be asleep when her mother was particularly angry with her. One night, while Mimi was sleeping, a Munna got into her home and into her bedroom to feast on the young girl's dreams. Before the Psychic type Pokemon had a chance to chow down however, Mimi woke up. Upon seeing the cute pink Pokemon, instead of being frightened that a wild Pokemon had somehow gotten into her home, she bonded with her. By the next morning, Mimi had her first Pokemon. After that, Mimi's mother was intrigued that her daughter managed to bond with a Pokemon so quickly. Pokemon Trainers were also highly regarded if they had skill. So, she encouraged her daughter to become a Pokemon Trainer, and sponsored her journey. Mimi wasn't entirely sure about this idea, but went along with it. If only to get her mother off her case about not doing anything with her life. Besides, her mother was paying for everything, what was the hurt in trying? So, she went on journey through the Galar Region region to obtain the eight Gym Badges. At first, she didn't understand what all the fuss was about, and didn't really try very hard to succeed. Over time, she discovered she enjoyed Pokemon Battling. Even though she didn't win every battle, she enjoyed the experience. Her battling abilities improved over time, and she also accrued a collection of Pokemon. For some odd reason though, Mimi found herself bonding with Psychic types the best. Even though she was on a journey, that did not stop her from napping with her Pokemon, and playing video games in between training. Eventually, she managed to earn all eight Gym Badges of the Galar region, and qualified for the Champion Cup. She did lose in the second round. Mimi wasn't too bothered by this setback however. She was happy that she had made it this far to begin with, and she has much respect for the trainer she ultimately lost too. After her loss, Mimi returned home. She had the Pokemon trainer experience, and it was fun, but now she was ready to return to her life of leisure. Her mother had different plans for her. Mimi had gained a lot of notoriety in her time as a trainer. It had turned out that one of the Gym Leaders was retiring, which meant their was vacancy for membership. Using her connections and wealth, her mother had gotten Mimi the opportunity to try to fill that position. Mimi was not happy that her mother was interfering in her life still, but once again went along with it. Besides, what harm could trying out for this do? It couldn't be that hard. From what she could tell, she would just have to battle some challengers once a year. Then she would have an abundance of free time. She battled some people, and earned the title of a Gym Leader. Unfortunately for her, being a Gym Leader was not as easy as she thought it would be. Besides battling the occasional challenger, there were other responsibilities. She had to make public appearances, and actually do things. Mimi still slept a lot, and was often late for meetings and other obligations. It was annoying to many people, but she remains a Gym Leader due to her skill in battles.

She can telepathically communicate with her own Psychic Pokémon, which she uses to command her Pokémon without having to speak out loud. As well she sometimes has premonitions of the future in her dreams. She doesn’t know how to interpret these dreams though. She sleeps more often in the morning, she sleeps more often at night, she just sleeps more often in general. She does sleep talk. Her idol is not a Galrian trainer. She looks up to Caitlin of the Unova Elite Four. They both specialize in Psychic types, and Mimi likes that she conducts battles from a large bed. Mimi hopes to meet her someday.

They are both cheerful and easygoing, and they both like to sleep a lot. She is the Pokemon Mimi is most associated with, and can often be seen by her side. Shaana wears a bow on the side of her head that matches Mimi’s. Capable of Gigantamaxing [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/561.png[/IMG] [b][u][Sigilyph]:[/u][/b] Diva: The diva of the team.

He now behaves like a brave and noble knight. He is polite and well mannered as a Pokemon can be. He is loyal to Mimi and the rest of her team, and protects them as best he can.

He is often oblivious to what is going on, and as is normal for his species often has a blank expression on his face, He has shown moments of intellect when he is inspired, but those occasions are rare. It is believed he is simply as lazy as his trainer is. [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/376.png[/IMG] [b][u][Metagross]:[/u][/b] Titan: Metagross is known for their intelligence, but Titan is known for his strength. He likes to fight. Mimi usually sends him out last, and he is the one challengers have the most trouble with. Despite his rough nature, around his trainer, he's still a big teddy bear. [/hider] [hider=Benched Pokemon] [i][Benched Pokemon are Pokemon that your character can swap out into their League or Champion's Cup teams. They exist in your character's arsenal, but do not take priority over more active members of their teams.

For this reason, Mimi does not like using her much. It’s another example of her mom interfering in her life again. She keeps her around because she is cute though. Fantasy is a kind and patient Pokemon. [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/121.png[/IMG] [b][u][Starmie]:[/u][/b] Starshine: Mimi only caught them because she felt like she needed a Water type. She is relatively recent addition to the team, and as such Mimi hasn’t bonded with them too much yet. They’re a very feisty Pokémon when given a chance.

Mimi caught an Indeede because she heard they make good butlers. His main purpose is to hang around the gym and serve treats to Mimi and the other Pokémon. He only makes an occasional appearance in battles. ...[/hider] [hider=Other] [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/517.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/517.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/517.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/517.png[/IMG] [IMG]https://serebii.net/pokedex-sm/icon/517.png[/IMG] [i]Mimi has several Munnas that hang around her Gym.[/i] [img]https://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/a/a2/876FMS8.png[/img] [i]As well as a female Indeede named Mary to babysit the Munnas [img]https://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/f/fe/856MS8.png[/img] [u][b]Hatenna:[/b][/u] Hattie: A timid Hatenna that Mimi came into possession of.
