Name: Arsenia
Age: 13
Height: 5'
Personality: Arsenia cares deeply for anyone and eve. As a child she was much more open and honest about her feelings but now entering her teens she is drawing more in on herself. She is very confident in herself, but she also knows when to quit and try again later. She believes that if you don't succeed the first time there will be a next time. Other than that, she tends to act like she doesn't care, more so if she doesn't know someone she is talking to. Though if pushed she will explode like a sack of poison. Especially if so calls her short.
Bio: Arsenia comes from a family of breeders. Her hometown is Lumiose City, a large bustling city that has as much energy as the electric pokemon that keep it going. Her mother owned a salon for people and pokemon on the north side of the city while her father helped breed pokemon for the professor. Her older brother had gone out and studied pokemon on his journey until finding a job working at a daycare. They all seemed happy doing what they do, but she wanted to see more than just Kalos.
One day, her father had a business trip to the galar region, and she saw an opportunity. She was 9 at the time and without a partner, she wanted someone special, someone with a story. Her father agreed to take her with him, there were plenty of interesting pokemon for her to meet and she may even take one home if she liked.
The business trip went by and she wasn't finding a pokemon. Her dad decided to teach her about camping while there, leaving them in the wild area around Giant's Cap. They didn't account for the strange weather the wild area kept and was one day forced to stay inside during a horrible rainstorm. That's when she heard a cry ring out. It was full of fear and very alone. Pushing her father's warnings aside she opened the flap of their tent to find a baby toxel all alone.
She rushed out to grab it, fighting against the high winds and heavy rain. Toxel was almost as big as she was but she lifted him into her arms and hurried back to her tent. Toxel had a fever, he had clearly been out in the storm for some time. Her father helped her in trying to make the baby pokemon better. It took many days and nights, even delayed their flight back home as they worried toxel wouldn't make it. When toxel fina came to, he was very pleased with the young girl who saved him. So he began her special pokemon, receiving a regular pokeball to call home but preferring to be carried by his trainer.
Years later she met Clement, the gym leader from her town. She asked him for a battle, having some experience and only one pokemon she lost, but she saw the power Clement had. She wanted to become that powerful a trainer, she wanted that bond. Having heard about the new region looking to train new gym leaders, she was ready, and as a parting gift, her father gave her an egg which hatched just before she left to reveal a female skrelp.

Name: Silvia
Age: 43
Height: 5'7"
Personality: Silvia is a kind, gentle, and caring woman. She works hard for those she cares about and takes care of them. She doesn't care much for other's opinions of her, she does whatever she wants when she wants, within reason. She tries to teach other young women to do the same.
Bio: Silvia is Arsenias aunt. She hails from Kalos, specifically Shalour City. She is related on her father's side. Silvia began with a dream to be a master, however, she was forced to do something more practical to care for her aging parents when her big brother left. He sent money but she still had to help maintain the house they lived in.
When they passed she moved away but wrote and video chatted her family frequently. More so Arsenia. She saw the light in the young girl's eyes so when she heard of the chance for her to become a leader, she had to tell her. This sparked a huge argument with her parents.
Arsenia had already attempted a journey around Kalos, but she came back home when it was too much. Silvia knew the girl was just recovering and would return to the world when she felt ready. Her parents thought otherwise given how dangerous this is. The arguing only stopped because Arsenia said she was going and it wasn't a question.
Silvia's brother thought little of his younger sister's life because she had no children or husband. She moved by herself in a small house and she came and went as she pleased. Her parents had left her a large sum of money so she learned to invest it in something to help her maintain her account. She battled often and gained her living from that, and while that may be a good earning for a child, to her brother she was too old for this. She ignored him and kept going. She was happy and that was all that mattered.
She had Arsenia come live with her at 12 so she could train her. She knew the girl could succeed if someone showed her how to use her pokemon. Once she was confident in herself, Silvia enrolled her for the training. It was going to be a long road, but she couldn't wait to see the end of it.
