Name: Elizabeth "Liz" Susan MacMillon
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Hometown: Castelia City, Unova
Appearance: Elizabeth has fair pale skin, bright blue eyes, and platinum blonde hair that falls down to her waist in straight lockes and bangs frame her round face. She is 5'00" and weighs 105 lbs. She has a very frail body structure, looking like skin and bones. However, given her age, she isn't too skinny by unhealthy standards. She isn't very strong, given her muscles aren't bulky or even toned.
Clothes: She usually wears high-style clothes, consisting of dresses and light jackets of varying colors when it is warm. When it rains, she has an umbrella. When it snows, she usually wears scarves, mittens, hats, thick leggings, and snow boots. She always wears a bandanna with truffles that she would usually get teased for.
Personality: She is a very sweet girl, but only because she knows what it feels like to be picked on all the time. She's the youngest out of four siblings, so she is usually seen as immature. However, this is not the case. She is very mature for her age, she just doesn't conform to social norms as sarcasm sometimes escape her and she takes things too literally. She also has a burning passion for "runt" Pokemon, or Pokemon who are being picked on due to feeling like the runt in her family. She is a very spirited person and very driven to show the cause she stands up for.
Goal: To show the world that even basic Pokemon (Pokemon who can't or haven't evolved) can be better than their evolutions or tougher Pokemon. She wants to beat all the Gym Leaders and Elite Four members with their Pokemon's pre-evolutions.
Backstory: Elizabeth has four older siblings who she looked up to. However, due to acting like how a young kid should, she got teased relentlessly. It got so bad, she was too stressed to perform properly at school. All she knew was people talking down to her. Her parents wanted her to grow up and become a nurse or a doctor. Or maybe even a lawyer. But her grades in her private school were either just passing or failing, and her parents didn't know if it was either Elizabeth's fault for not understanding the criteria or if it were their fault as parents. However, there were two classes she excelled at: Pokemon Battling and Pokemon Care. Training, bathing, grooming, and playing with Pokemon might as well be her pasttime, as well as cooking amazing mushroom stew from the mushrooms her Swinub finds. She got top scores in the class. While she wasn't a fan favorite in school due to her blunt nature and inability to get normal social cues, she treated every Pokemon with kindness, even if it weren't her's. She had all the patience in the world for them, but less so for her own human kind. The humans she was exposed to left a sour taste in her mouth. What made it worse was that her clothes or toys would be hand-me-downs from her older siblings. Their conditions would range from mediocre to downright unusable. She received a Swinub for her birthday but quickly realized the Swinub was the sickly type, and he wasn't able to battle much at all before getting too sick during the fight and passing out. She found herself in a rut. She wanted to have an adventure, but found herself unable to. She then decided that enough was enough, as the breaking point reached a climax as her siblings all had evolved Pokemon and would boast about it to their youngest sister before mockingly forgetting she had a sickly Swinub who would never evolve. She was going to show the world that Pokemon were strong, no matter what form they stayed in.
Pokemon: Swinub
Species: Swinub - [TYPE]Ice[/TYPE][TYPE]Ground[/TYPE]
Nickname: Nosey
Gender: Male
Defining Features: Nosey is very pale and is two inches smaller than usual Swinub, standing at 1'02" instead of 1'04".
Personality: Nosey is very curious, rummaging through bushes as he finds the source of smells and wondering if he can eat it. However, he can be pretty irate and his temper flares up when babied or given pity. He doesn't want pity, he just wants people and Pokemon to treat him normally instead of treating him like glass. He can be violently aggressive, often attributing his outbursts to being teased constantly and needing to show off that he isn't what they say he is. Due to this treatment, he cares for his trainer and any other Pokemon or human who had gone through the teasing and bullying he had gone through, and he becomes especially sweet and hospitable towards them.
Goal: He wants to become a Mamoswine and help show the world, and especially his trainer's family, that he can battle Elite Four Pokemon and not die.
Ability: Snow Cloak - Helps hide the Pokemon in Hail.
Battle Style: He tends to be more physically built for fighting. While this battle style is greatly taxing on him than if he went more ranged, he feels more comfortable with using physical moves to fight. He also tries to be fast when he can. He will use status moves when he can to make it easier on himself.
Moves: (Level-Up) Tackle, Odor Sleuth, Mud Sport, Mud-Slap, Powder Snow, Flail, (Egg) Avalanche, Bite, Body Slam, Curse, Double-Edge, Fissure, Freeze-Dry, Icicle Crash, Icicle Spear, Rock Slide, Stealth Rock, Take Down, (Special) Whirlwind
Backstory: He was given to Elizabeth as a gift. He had just hatched and didn't have too many problems. However, his egg hadn't acclimated to the warm climate and the sudden change to his core body temperature when he hatched stunted his development and his growth. This also caused him to get sick all the time, and it got to the point where he wouldn't battle. The constant teasing from Elizabeth's sisters and some of the students at her school led him to become aggressive and lose patience for those who talked smack without showing proof that they aren't just talking for the sake of talking. If their actions can back up their fighting words, he'd respect them. He began to get taught how to use the battlefield and Pokemon's attacks to his advantage and won most battles after this change, as opposed to passing out from over-exerting himself.
