“Reality is wrong. Dreams are for real.”
Basic Appearance;;
Angelique is not very tall, standing at a rather short height of five feet - Even. She weighs in at a whopping 108lbs. Tresses of shamrock green, gotten from her mother, cascade down her body and pool around her ankles, always meticulously taken care of. Her eyes are a bright shade of greenish blue that are always shining with silent joy. Her flesh is a light shade of fallow from working under the sun often with her Pokemon. She is a busty young woman with wide-ish hips, often emphasized on with the gowns and sundresses that she wears.
Distinct Markings;;
Her hands have a few burn marks from kitchen accidents, and sports a scar of a bite mark from her Gible on her left forearm from when Chomper was first hatched and tried to eat Angel, thinking that she was a treat of sorts. Her arms, hands, neck, chest, and parts of her face have scars that are fading and not completely visible from scratches received in the process of helping injured and scared Pokémon as well as from her own self causing harm.
Style;;
Angelique likes to wear things that are girly - Sundresses, bonnets, ribbons, bows. Those sort of things. She has an endless array of aprons that she often wears over her clothes and often wears flowery jewelry.

Habits;;
Angelique has a strong habit of sketching while she's walking and not looking where she's going. This has gotten her known for bumping into people religiously, often sending her drawings flying through the air. One of her worse habits, a secret, is that she scratches herself in her sleep along her arms, hands, chest, neck, and sometimes her face from frequent nightmares. She chews on her hair when she's nervous, though many people do. One of her better habits is singing. She has a beautiful voice that can reach many ranges and she will often sing instead of speak, as she feels much more confident in doing so.
Weaknesses;;
Angelique is smart – But only when it comes to delicate arts and martial arts. She admittedly cannot work a computer to save her life. Her trying to copy and paste on the web is like an elderly person trying to text; Hilarious. Its safe to say that she cannot operate most computer-like devices with any glorious grace without first having studied the manual like she's about to take an exam on its workings. One of her greatest weaknesses is that she suffers from Anuptaphobia – The fear of staying single which derives from another weakness, which is her Androphobia. Angelique isn't quite terrified of men to the point that she will shriek and run away at the sight of them. In her case, she doesn't like being around large groups of men or spending alone time with a single male that she isn't completely familiar with. When speaking with men that she doesn't know, she develops a stutter, wringing her hands behind her back, and trying her best not to make eye contact. Many men have mistaken this as shyness due to a crush and have made sexual advances towards her which generally lead to them being taken to a hospital for a broken limb. Her relationships with men have never lasted longer than a couple of months.
Personality;;
Angelique has many different sides to her, though her dominant personality trait is nurturing. Angelique spends most of her time with her Pokémon and the Pokémon of other trainers at her Daycare in Rainbow Valley. Being around Pokémon and raising them is soothing to her, as she often states that she generally prefers their company over humans – Always making sure to say “No offense to anyone. They're just...peaceful.” She values Pokémon just as though they were her own children. She is just like a mother with them, bustling around to prepare their snacks and meals, making sure that they brush their teeth and groom themselves, overseeing their playtime, and tucking them into bed at night. And just like any mother, she is very protective of her “young”. Harming Pokémon in her presence or otherwise threatening them will bring down the wrath of Arceus upon the aggressor.
Her battle persona is one that is favored by her fans all over the world. When in a serious battle, Angelique is stern and serious. She shows no mercy, determined to win and retain her perfect streak. Her bright and gentle smile and kind eyes turn into an expression of determination and calculation as she analyzes her opponent and prepares to tackle the challenge before her. One thing that she will not stand for pre, during, or post battle is insults. She is not one to exchange smack talk, instead funneling her irritation into doling out more punishment. Angelique does not have an elitist mindset, not by any means. She knows that she's better than many, but she doesn't hold herself as the “end all be all”.
But she does have a rather crammed schedule, so if she deems an opponent unworthy, she is quick to make it known by ending the match within three moves and simply walking away. Though if she is really intrigued by a Trainer and curious of their abilities, she will stretch out the battle for as long as she can. She can sometimes be seen taking notes during battle. When in hand-to-hand combat, she is so ruthless that its almost like she's an entirely different person altogether.
The way she is around men strongly depends on who it is. If the male in question has been around her for quite a while and has taken time to get to know her, she can manage to hold conversation without hyperventilating four minutes in. When males her age or older strike up conversation or flirt with her, she clams up and becomes suspicious of their intentions. Which usually doesn't end well for them. She has a short fuse with unknown men – Though her exception seems to be with Professors, Gym Leaders, and those who are among the Unova Elite Four. And her family members, of course. A male getting close to her is something that is rare with how much she tries to shut them out – Well. She doesn't try to on purpose, it just seems reflexive for her.
Finally, Angel is passionate. Especially about the more delicate side of life. Cooking, singing, dancing, drawing, and the such like. When she is singing and dancing, she shows an amount of confidence that is almost as great as her show of confidence in battle. She enjoys the parts of the day that puts aside specifically for herself, dancing and singing only for herself and the Pokémon around her. She is passionate about Pokémon as well, viewing them as sacred. A little known fact about Angelique is that she will not capture a Pokémon without its permission. Ever. Even though she hatches them – She believes that they have the right to make such a big decision.

Strengths and Special Attributes;;
Angelique is a Muay Thai 3rd dan red belt, having learned enough Martial Arts from her brother and father over the years to defend herself. Though her true passion lies within the Breeding field and she only ever fights for self-defense. She is one of the best Breeders in all the regions. Outside of working and training, She can be found singing, drawing, and dancing. She's rather good at all three. When it comes to cooking, she can make any dish asked for and often creates her own delicious treats. All of the treats and food her Pokemon eat are made from scratch by her. She can identify most of the ingredients not all in a dish from three bites.
Though some of her Pokemon haven't yet hit full evolution, don't let it fool you. She knows the ins and outs of evolving Pokemon so that they are at their full potential when they hit the next stage, they are bigger and stronger than they would have turned out in the wild or under the hands of another trainer. Hatching Pokemon is another thing she's good at. Whether it's her Pokemon or any other, she tends it with maternal care as though it were her own, having it hatch out stronger and more well-tempered. Her medical skills are top-notch as well and she's pretty good at make potions, poultices, status healers, and other things. But not just for Pokemon, but humans as well. From small injuries to severe illnesses, she always seems to know just the cure and how to make it.
Aside from those, She is talented at reading body language and telling when people are lying from years of observing human and Pokemon interactions from the background. She is also fairly proficient at cross-breeding, allowing the Pokemon she hatches to learn moves that they normally should not. Her proficiency as a Breeder also makes her an extremely skilled Pokémon Connaisseuse, allowing her to determine compatibility between either Pokemon and Trainer as well as Pokemon mates for breeding. It is also rumored that she can actually understand Pokemon.

Brief History;;
Angelique was born to Bruno and Suzy Romain who were originally from the Kanto Region, but had moved to Unova when the twins were eight, where her mother was offered the funds to start her own Suzy's Salon chain throughout Unova in Castelia City. Their father and his side of the family were well-renowned Martial Artists and Pokemon trainers specializing with Fighting Type Pokemon. Their mother was a world-famous Breeder who was cousin to Lance and younger sister to Clair. Angelo and Angelique had a very wonderful life and were introduced to Pokemon at very young ages. Their family knew that there was something special about them when they discovered that their children could not only speak to Pokemon, but understand them as well no matter what Pokemon it was. Angelique was always a polite girl, always engrossed in the work of her mother, wanting so very much to be the greatest Breeder in the world. But like her father, her Aunt Clair, and her Uncle Lance, she was very interested in battling. She began to formulate how she could use the two so that she'd gain success on both paths.
It wasn't until she was seven that she asked of her brother and father to teach her Martial Arts. She had been wandering around Castelia and had gotten lost playing hide-and-seek. A group of boys older than her by a few years began to jostle her around, calling her names. She and her brother would often catch flak from other children around Castelia like many of the other kids who went to private schools. She tried her best to escape, but the boys outnumbered her and she had a very delicate build. Cornered in an alley, Angelique received her first beating and was left there for six hours until Atreyu and Angelo both found her and brought her home. It was after that she decided that she would become a Martial Artist as well. She also developed Androphobia and has ever since found it hard to speak to males her age in small-talk without stuttering or clenching her fist. She most definitely does not get up close to them, either.
She began her journey with her brother when she was ten years old, though they would often separate so they could each pursue individual interests. Everyone thought that with Angelo being the stronger Martial Artist, that he would pursue to be Unova Champion and Angelique being the Breeder would pursue being Top Coordinator of Unova. But it was entirely the other way around. Angelique hatched few Pokémon for her team and dominated every gym that she went to, not holding back for anything. It took about a year and a half to gather all the badges needed before she challenged the Elite Four of Unova. She defeated them in one fell swoop. To this day, Angelique is undefeated. After claiming her victory, she returned to Castelia City where she started her own Daycare. Since then, she has been hailed as the world's greatest Breeder, providing eggs to labs and Gyms of Unova, Sinnoh, and Hoenn region with hopes to expand.
She was fourteen years old when she was asked to join the Elite Four of Unova. Of course, she didn't want to turn them down, so she gladly accepted the honor. It wasn't a job that she had to show up for every day, so she was able to still explore. She moved out of her parents' home when she was sixteen and made her way to the place the she favored most during her journey through Unova – Rainbow Valley. It was in Rainbow Valley where she helped the Fighting-type team her father let her borrow. They built not just a home for her, but a massive Daycare. Her brother moved soon, as did her three younger sisters; Amelia, Adetta, and Alexandra.
Her time is spent taking care of Pokémon and catering to her fans. She does not allow anyone to live in Rainbow Valley, having convinced her family to chip in so that she could buy the Valley. It took three long years to raise the money, but by the time she was nineteen, it was hers. What was once a Daycare had soon enough doubled as a sanctuary. She travels to visit her family members as well as for any time required of her to face those who have earned the right to challenge the Elite Four. One of the most notable events in her life is her participation in The Great War. All of the Crime Syndicates were getting a bit too out of hand, so the Elite Four, Champions, Frontier Brains, and Gym Leaders from all over ever Region got together and set up a battle plan to take them all out at the same time. Though they were outnumbered, they won by a landslide. Angelique had only just been instated into the Elite Four a few months before the event occurred.

He loves flying! And I love our night rides – We fly over Rainbow Valley to make sure that everything is running ship shape and I fell off one time when he did a loop in the air. But he caught me, of course.”
|| History || → [i]“Hm? Oh. I got Atreyu from my Aunty Clair on my sixth birthday. He wasn't a Dratini then, though. Well...He was. But not hatched. Yes, that's right. I got Atreyu when he was an egg. Aunty Clair knew that I wanted to be a Breeder just like mother and she saw it fit to help me get started at a young age so that I could become the best. I remember very well that Aunty Clair told me that I shouldn't shake any of my gifts because they were all veeerry delicate and I'd be really sad if I broke them. And she was right! I would simply die if I would have broken a Pokemon egg! It took me three weeks to hatch Atreyu. After that, we spent every single waking moment together with the other Pokemon and mom and dad and Angelo. We trained a lot and he grew really strong and he grew huuuge. Twice the size of a normal Dragonite. It was only three months later that Atreyu and the others let me capture them in Pokeballs.”

|| History || → “I met Meloetta when I was twelve. I was on my way to Striaton City to deliver a newly hatched Tepig to one of the Gym Leaders there and I was humming The Relic Song. My mother used it as a lullaby when I was a child. Well, I heard a most beautiful voice join in and when I turned around, Aria was following me, singing as loudly and beautifully as she could. She told me that I had a beautiful voice and asked if she could accompany me and I happily obliged. Well, shortly after I captured her and the rest is history!”

|| History || → “Teehee! Ashdir is such a goofball and he always has been! I got him from Uncle Lance when I bested him in battle for the first time. I was seventeen. He knew that I really liked hatching my own Pokemon, so he gave me Ash's egg. Ash is kind of slow. But, he's getting to be very powerful. I've seen it before - A Pokemon that starts out slow on evolving and learning will become stronger than the trainer thought possible once they finally evolve. In most cases, stronger than they would have been if they weren't slow. Ashdir is just amazing. He's always escaping his Pokeball and trying to play with my hair or sit on my head. Him and Chomper are inseparable. They're like two little brothers together. And Atreyu is the daddy! Heehee!”

She's so very sweet, though. She's kind of like the elder sister that they didn't have as newborns. She's always asking what she can do for us and offering to get the ingredients I need for my food.

|| History || → “Mint has always been such a sweety. Even as a Bagon, she's been so relaxed and patient. I remember her tackling me the minute she hatched. She was so happy! I was excited to have yet another shiny pokemon. She was always really stubborn, but very loyal. She and Atreyu are my powerhouses when battling. I got her egg from my brother after getting my first badge! He told me that he had lifted it off of a rogue Team Rocket member - He's so brave!”

|| History || → “Brutus and Judas used to be just Judas. Until they evolved into a Zweilous and demanded to be treated as separate beings. Anywho. My Uncle Lance asked me if I wanted a real challenge after my third Gym Badge and when I said yes, he gave me a blue egg with black fluff on top. I knew exactly what it was and I was kind of scared. I was even more terrified when Judas hatched because he was always trying to eat me until I realized that he was just a scared, blind, and lonely little thing. After a few months, we grew closer and he's the one that won my final battle against the Elite Four which caused him to evolve. He's never liked anyone but be, though I'm trying to change it. I hate when it comes time to feed them. I have to make at least eight bowls for them!”

I do adore him, though because he's so playful. I won't lie, I don't like flying with him sometimes because he loves to go so fast and with as fast as he is...I still have trouble holding on sometimes. One time, I slipped and fell off in the desert. Lucky some guy broke my fall...”
|| History || → “Well. I got Caesar as an egg for my sixth birthday as well. He was the absolute cutest little Trapinch that I had ever seen in my entire life! My parents weren't fond of him for a while because all they heard day in and day out was 'Pinch! Trapinch! Pin Pin Trapinch Pinch!' It drove them right up the dang walls! But I loved him, even though he stole my covers every night. Hnnn→ He was so amazing and he still is. He's great for creating distractions in battle and he's ridiculously fast! He's a Flygon, duh!”

|| Personality || → “He's just as goofy as Ashdir! But it's so cute. He's got a very short temper and doesn't trust strangers, quick to bite them. He's very naïve and doesn't understand much though he likes to act like he does.”
|| History || → “Chomper is just as silly as Ashdir! I got him from Aunt Clair after my first victory over her. I was eighteen. He and Ashdir hatched together, so maybe that's why they're so close. Chomper is slow, too. But, he's close to evolving now. I can feel it! He's been getting so strong. He and Ashdir enjoy pilfering berries from the gardens and the kitchens, sometimes getting on the nerves of other Pokemon. They also like to play spies and ninjas, but they kind of bumble because of their short legs and small bodies making them incapable of the moves that they try to do. It's so cute!”
