[/u][/size][/right][/blockquote][/blockquote]To Be Your Own Best Friend...APPERANCE: Typo, is a small average girl. Nothing's that wonderful or special about her. She tries her best to fade in the background most of the time, trying her best to kinda stay out of the way. Famously, among people who know her well, she is the most oddest thing to see. At first, in a crowd, the girl attracts no attention. Her tidy purple ponytail in a white tie and her neatly cut bangs seem to just draw the eye away to something else. She wears different color tank tops, usually white, green, black, blue, and red are the most seen, and most are plain. Very few have graphics and she seems to keep it that way. Her eyes are a normal blue, and she wears no makeup, in a plea for no attention.
Her ratty jeans also seem to turn the eye away. While she has skinny legs and they do 'go on for miles' she normally keeps them covered up. Typo does the best to keep all eyes away from her. Not even in battle does she try to draw attention to herself. This is because of many reasons, but she doesn't like people staring at her. The most noticible thing on her seems to be her right shoulder being bandaged down to her elbow. Many people will think it's a injury and move on, and while they are right, they are also wrong.
During a stint with a Rocket member, she was burned. Her shoulder was lightly burned, and with treatment it probably would have healed fine. However, while she was 'lost' for that short period of time, she didn't take care of the wound, and so it got worse and infected. When she was found, it was treated but it was far too late. A giant chunk of her skin had to be removed so she has limited feeling in that arm and it seems she looses a lot of mobility as well. She 'tosses' out her pokeballs using that hand, and has learned to be come ambidextrious because of it.
PERSONALITY: When you first meet Typo, she seems like a quiet person, a really just 'background character'. She doesn't like attention in any way, due to the fact that she believes when they see her scar, they will be disgusted. She loves her pokemon dearly, and they are the only ones to ever see it. If one was to see her scar, they would be her worst fear. If she was ever in a relationship, they would have to keep telling her that she was beautiful and feeding her compliments to ever be a true love to her.
As a person who thinks imperfect beings are the only ones who exist, she tolerates others flaws, and know they sometimes can't help it. She accepts people for who they are. Truly. She doesn't like fakes and people who dress themselves up to be someone they're not. She despises fake things, and only want people to act what they truly are. This means she gives a cold shoulder to anyone she suspects are hiding their true selves.
She adores most people for who they are, and mostly and quickly becomes a friend to rely on once people have hooked her. While it's not easy, if done so, and she sees you as a friend, she would die for you. She would do anything. Typo isn't someone who goes where the party is at, she could be akin to a loyal dog. (Though she likes cats.) However, she is fiercely independant at times, which seems out of character for someone who knows her, but deep down, and while she is sometimes a hypocrite, she doesn't want other's to know what she's feeling.
She knows people leave. She knows people die. She knows people are born. And she knows life. She isn't afraid of death truely, faced with a good few many times. However she lives for the now and the future, wanting to bring people happiness, even if it means sacrificing her own. Once she's known, she can be extremely sarcastic, but usually only mentally. She seems to be quite innocent but it's actually the opposite.
She knows the horrors of life and will face them. However she is a timid scaredy cat and will probably run a little first. Typo however has mixed feelings on Pokemon. She loves battling, and will do her best to win, but always, and I do mean always overworries about her Pokemon and treats them way more than she battles them. Which makes her slow in training and the best breeder. However her mother was a breeder, and for once Typo wanted to do something different, and if training doesn't work out for her, a breeder is always what she can fall back on, since she seems to be quite the Pokemon handler.
However, even through all of this, Typo still belieives that strength is better than defense and charges head first. Normally this is a bad thing, but her last minute strategies seem to do her best.

[/u][/size][/right][/blockquote][/blockquote]Leave Out All The Rest...HISTORY: Layla 'Ashely' Douglas was born to two loving parents. Due to their small townin Johto, there was a error in the birth cirtificate which spelled her middle name wrong. Thus, her nickname came to light before she could really debate it. Five days later the birth document was fixed, and Layla came home. Besides some minor problems with her lungs, she was a healthy baby. She was a healthy weight, and a healthy color. Her hazel eyes seemed to take everything around her, and she oddly didn't cry much as a child. Which was strange to the new parents who were breeders and a small day care-center for pokemon.
Layla was unusually quiet, but not unimaginative or a lone child. No she seemed to be the child that the pokemon rather take care of. The second day she was home, she was found in the grip of a Chansey. She just stared out blankly at the world, but her eyes were shining and curious. Her parents took her home much to the dislike of the Chansey, but she grew and grew, but one pokemon that seemed to stay with her no matter what, was a small Eevee. This Eeevee seemed to be the longest resident, that the Pokemon trainer left to die near there.
She was too timid of the parents, but she protected the child as her own. A male Eevee came along and they seemed to be 'Pokemon parents' of the small child. As soon as Typo learned to talk, she called them 'Momma and Daddy Eevee' and her parents 'Mom and Dad'. A little awed by the devotion both sets of parents had, they soon came to a mutual agreement to raise the little girl. During the day the mothers would go to the town and help Layla learn, and at home the fathers taught her how to be somewhat handy around the field and house.
A few rouge grunts saw the chance to make a buck and get some fairly strong Pokemon, and captured Layla while she was tending to the feed bins outside. Her Eevee parents were taking care of their two eggs. Captured and gagged, she stayed trapped in a cage for awhile, with some of the pokemon they captured. By accident, a parent Combusken got so angry with the Rockets for taking her Torchic away from her, she unleashed a powerful Flame attack. It singed Layla's shoulder, but the pokemon grabbed the Torchic without a care that she hurt Layla.
However a Blastoise, cooled down the burn slightly and carried her to safety. The Blastoise was a trainer's pokemon she didn't know, but was tending to quite frequently from her love of water types. It was a long way back home, and during that time, her wound was infected. Mostly in pain and a delirious fever, she doesn't remember much, but that old blastoise carrying her home and giving her berries and water.
She was told she made it home a week later, and was still in the hospital two weeks after that. They had cut out a chunk of her shoulder, mostly the back and the front, and a thin lining of the skin over her shoulder. Typo was just to glad to be home though. A few months later she joined a little group of kids her age. Since she was only about seven at the time, and the group was almost all boys, they got dirty and played in the mud together.
However one time, three boys found out she had a scar and couldn't move her arm well and teased her relentlessly, even going so far as to hit her wound with a few sticks and the like. Terrified, she locked herself in her room for days on end, scared that what they said about her was true. Finally, the Eevee parents got her out of the room with their new children. One Eevee in particular seemed to stay with her no matter what. This became her first pokemon and finally got her go back to her somewhat normal life.
Her pokemon count soon grew to a Houndour and a Squirtle. With her three pokemon, she bid her family goodbye as she wanted to travel a little. She was thirteen when she started her journey and she is now sixteen. She has gone back home quite a few times, but she still likes to be 'roughing' it with her Pokemon friends. Finding great stardom, she rocketed quickly through the gyms, of course not without her troubles, but continued to do well and train her pokemon the best.
While she isn't too sure what she wishes to do when she's older, she's perfectly find as a battler. Her pokemon have changed a lot, and she has many 'favorites' but she has her main few, and that makes her happy to be alive and training. Her pokemon love her and she loves her pokemon.
-------- (I kinda cut this part out about the gym battles and her pokemon exploits cause I thought I was dragging on too much, but if you want me to add this back in, let me know.)
Many gym battles ran her down and many trainers wished to challenge her, but she tried her hardest to slip out when she wasn't needed. After all, she was lowly trainer, as she thought of herself and wanted her pokemon to have fun, and not battle all the time. Doing all she can to give her pokemon happiness, many times, she takes care of baby pokemon to help them grow stronger.
Her small level 5 Eevee has long turned into a beautiful Espeon that keeps watch over Typo as she learns to grow and grow. Her Houndour has turned into a Houndoom that is the fiercest thing she has ever handled. Her Squirtle has become a powerhouse Blastoise. She has two teams, one for battling and one that she raises on her own. While she never wanted to become such a elite member, it seems she has now. She doesn't know how she did it, neither does she really care, but her battles have become the best thing in her life, and she doesn't know why should would ever stop.
Her pokemon are a mix of Psychic and Darks, with her Blastoise being the only Water type Pokemon in her party. Joker, a Alakazam has joined her party and is what his name implies. A complete chaos magnet. Midnight, a Umbreon has also joined her party, from the same Eevees that she started with. However Midnight is more of a aloof pokemon than any other. Since she believes that the town is where it starts, she takes many small trips to towns to help train the young and help out with phsyical labor helping the towns move forward.
From one small Typo, many people have learned to live and do great things. She loves her life and never ever wants it to end, but one day she knows it will, but she'll have her pokemon to keep by her side until then. Her family has moved closer, and has opened up a small daycare center to the small young ones who want to learn about pokemon. She wants to teach people that with love and kindness you can raise the strongest pokemon.....Leave Out All The Rest

INFO/PERSONALITY: Psiana was a baby with a spunky personality. She met Typo while she locked herself in her room and seems to be the only one who can put up with her odd moodswings with cuddling and being completely random.

However she didnt' blame Typo and took a stand, evolving after they beat the fourth gym.

The did, beating the Abra quite throughly. Finding it somewhat afterwards the Abra had become sullen, and Typo happened upon it. Taking care of it, it soon learned that not all humans deserved to be tricked, and not all things were bad. Loving the pokemon with her heart, she learned to be in tune with what it needed. Most of the time it seems like a happy joking pokemon, pulling simple little pranks and playing with the best. He doesn't even take battling seriously.

INFO/PERSONALITY: Eve was found by a flighty mother and overprotective father Houndooms. When the egg was hatched, Typo had given it a few berries, while the parents snarled quietly and she backed away. Every day after that, Eve continued to wait for the berries. When the parents were taken home, with a upset owner because she didn't want her pokemon to have a child, she shoved it in Typo's arms and walked away with her pokemon, leaving Eve confused and upset. As time went on it grew resentful of other trainers, thinking they were mostly the same. However he stayed loyal to Typo, knowing that she would never leave him or be ashamed of him. He is the most loyal Houndoom in his humble opinion, and seems to dislike any other of his team besides Bubble and Psiana.

Blastoise wanted her to take care of it and she does. As a quickly growing pokemon, Bubble's personality skyrocketed as it grew. It's the the major personality of the bunch, and kids seem to like Bubble the most. She seems to be the major powerhouse as well, and seems to be the mothering type.

Seeing this, Typo set out to befriend it and her newly evolved Espeon helped, bringing the Eevee to life. While he didn't do much else, he seemed to be literally Typo's shadow. Watching the other Pokemon battle he begged Typo to take him out, to get stronger. So she did, and now he stands by her as her shadow and is the most serious of the group.....I Ain't The Sharpest Tool In The Shed.
