| APPEARANCE |

| PERSONALITY |

A very thoughtful person. Mila is often described to be a serious thinker, which is true. She's constantly thinking and planning and strategizing - often forgetting about the real world. She can get lost in her own world rather easily, so it's not uncommon to see her staring into the void - lips moving but no words coming out. Due to this, she's often always prepared for anything that may happen, from first aid kits for people, to revives and potions for her pokemon.

Mila is also very observant, and quickly notices things that seem out of the ordinary quickly. Because of this, she's not easily fooled and can tell pokemon of the same species apart based on something as small as mannerisms. She'll also note a friends hairstyle or a new ingredient to a recipe.

With her observant nature comes some bluntness as she tends to point of the things she's noticed. Not in a rude way as she's typically polite - but she has yet to get down that pointing at people or leaning in closely can be a bit rude. Of course, she'll apologize, but most likely end up doing it again anyways.

She's also quite excitable when she learns something new, mainly about pokemon. She loves learning new things and is quite studios; though prefers real world experience as opposed to reading.

| LIKES |

planning things out, when things go according to plan, strawberry parfaits, new information in her notebook and puzzles/brain teasers 

| DISLIKES |

Messes, tests, when things don't stick to a schedule, losing her things or overly spicy foods

| POKEMON TEAM |

Pokemon: Totodile

Gender: male

Nickname: Pontus (usually just Pon)

Ability: Sheer Force 

Held Item: Life Orb

Moveset: Liquidation | Ice Punch |  Swords Dance | Mud Slap

Pon was Mila's starter pokemon, who she received by the professor. Pon is quite mischievous and has a tendency to bite and chomp anything, often chasing people down whilst snapping his jaws. Not everyone enjoys this, and Mila often has to apologize on his behalf. Despite his deeds, she still loves him and he's a dependable partner with a fiery spirit.

Pokemon: Nidoran

Gender: male

Nickname: Pin

Ability: Hustle

Held Item: Zoom Lens

Moveset: Toxic | Protect | Iron Tail | Horn Attack

Mila caught Pin whilst tending to her grandmother's berry farm; finding him trying to sneak a few. She ended up feeding him, and he kept coming back for more and more. Her grandmother scolded her and told her to do something about him which Mila did by catching him. Now he's spoiled by both of them despite her grandmother's initial grumpiness.

Pokemon: Larvitar

Gender: female

Nickname: Olive

Ability: Guts

Held Item: Flame Orb

Moveset: Screech | Ancient Power | Earthquake | Dark Pulse 

Mila has only obtained Olive recently. When taking a trip with her uncle to his mountain cabin; she discovered a strange hole that seemed to be causing alot of rumbling. She accompanied her uncle as he investigated, and they discovered Olive digging her way out of the mountain and eating dirt. Olive believed that Mila was her mother, and refused to part ways - chasing anyone in an attempt to protect her mother. It ended in Mila catching and keeping her. Olive is very tough, though is very baby and is not above manipulating Mila with fake tears.

| BACKGROUND |

From a young age, Mila has been surrounded by people of different professions, all making breakthroughs in their specific fields. Her mother was a pokemon researcher, and her father owned a company that mass produced products like potions and antidotes. Her elder siblings were also quite accomplished, which led to Mila working hard her entire life in hopes of making a name for herself as they've done. 

| FUN FACTS |

As a result of her rather famous family, Mila was born with money. However she's not entirely spoiled as she knows the hard work that came into it - though she can be a bit of a spender when it comes to quality products even if it's a high price.

Mila tends to travel around the world a lot with her parents or uncle(whose a pokemon ranger) so she experiences loads of new places quite often. She also regularly flies out to see siblings who live in different regions. She has a scrapbook that she fills out with pictures.

Mila has a notebook that fits into a binder. Her notebook is filled with all the usual stuff; from planning to type differences and whatnot. She's very knowledgeable about them, and aims to be a pokemon researcher like her mother.

❝I can't believe pokemon in different regions change so much! Its crazy, I wonder why they do that?❞

| SCENARIO |

oc is Mila's friend, must be 13-14 (pokemon should be low leveled too due to their ages)

Summer break, it's every kids dream. No school for nearly two months feels like a decade of fun. Especially this summer. You have plans upon plans, non-stop fun that will be had.

A couple months prior, Mila had invited you along with her on a trip to another region. She explained that it was to visit her brother who was a member of the elite four in said region; but still to sight see and have some fun as well. You agreed, got permission from your guardian and off you guys were!

Everything was exciting, from the train ride to the airport, to the airport ride to the region! You two arrived at her brother's house, who greeted you both with big smiles. It was exciting, seeing different regional pokemon and seeing new pokemon. The next day, her brother excuses himself to handle some business and leaves you two alone for a bit - one of his Pokemon left behind to guard and protect you two.

Shortly after, Mila and you decided to strike out on your own for awhile and do a bit of exploring. Hit up a town, traverse the wild grass - anything could happen! 

"Alright, I got my camera!" Mila comes thudding down the stairs, holding her camera thats looped around her neck. Her backpack is strapped to her back, and her poke-belt that contains her trio of teammates is around her waist - plus one additional ball that belonged to her brothers Machamp.

"Are you ready to go?" She asks, but before you could answer, plucked a mini notepad out of her skirts pocket. "I already have water, snacks for us and our pokemon, a first aid kit, potions, full heals, revives and..." She starts on a rambling - reading off the list on things stuffed into her backpack. [Your response?]

❝Hold on, let me grab my backpack!❞
