Bio: Violet was originally from Johto, but moved to Kanto with her mother, brother, and grandmother after issues arose in her family. She used to have a close relationship with her father when she was younger, but felt bitter towards him after he volunteered for the rangers. Her father, a generous man, was paid very little for his hard work. Thus the Calhert family lived in a very run down house, and had little luxuries. Violet decided to leave on her journey as soon as she was old enough in order to bring in some money for the family. She started with a rattata that was a very gentle creature. Violet trained it hard until it evolved into a ratticate. Yet due to Violet's poor battling skills she could never beat bugsy (the second gym leader she faced) she was never able to catch any other pokemon because she never held onto her money to buy pokeballs, she sent it all to her family. Violet only forced herself to continue her journey through sheer force of will despite how many times she lost to more experienced trainers. The only reason she stopped battling is because her grandmother suddenly fell ill. Violet abandoned her journey in order to stay home to help nurse her grandmother back to health. After awhile her grandmother suddenly grew healthier. Violet at this time was 13. Violet considered travelling with her constant companion, ratticate, but decided to stay near home to train until she felt they were strong enough to start their journey again. Ratticate was growing much stronger, and Violet was starting to get the hang of battling. Still when team rocket came to her town she was still too weak to stop them. They took her precious ratticate from her, and did much more damage to the town. Violet stayed inside for a long while after that. She felt as though the entire thing were her own fault. She finally came out of her house when she heard that her younger brother had gotten into trouble for pokemon abuse. He had trained his precious zigzagoon to death. She found him beaten by the side of the road, crying over his pokemon's body. He had been beaten up by the trainer's who found him and his seemingly neglected zigzagoon. The only reason he didn't get in too much trouble is because he was mentally ill. Violet knew that he had only trained it so hard because of some things she had said about him. Some horrible things she had said about him being weak in her frustration. Violet left the house for a few days to get away from all the guilt she had placed on herself from the two incidents. It was then that a Cyndaquil ran up to her as she rested under a tree. It was being chased by a wild hoothoot. The cyndaquil had obviously angered it somehow, still Violet felt inclined to help the fiery creature. She used the Cyndaquil to battle the wild hoothoot, and eventually scare it off. After that moment the Cyndaquil would not leave her side. It followed her everywhere, no matter how much she tried to shoo it away. Finally she gave up and headed home with it following her like a lost duckling. After a day of travelling she was confronted by a man in a lab coat. He called himself professor elm and claimed the Cyndaquil was his, and that it had run away from him. After hearing what had happened the professor decided to let her have the Cyndaquil, because he had planned on giving it away as a starter anyways. Violet was somewhat upset about the turn of events. She hadn't planned to try to train another pokemon after her ratticate had been stolen. Still the Cyndaquil's excitab;e nature eventually won her over. She hadn't had much of a chance to train the pokemon when her mother announced they where moving to kanto. Violet accepted the change without too much anger. Moving to a place where nobody knew what her brother had done might be a good change. So the colhert's packed up and moved to lavender town. The town was fairly eerie, but it didn't bother Violet at all. She liked it actually. It was a perfect place to train her Cyndaquil too, there where a lot of ghastly's roaming about. It wasn't too long until her mother sat down and talked with Violet explaining that it would be good for her to start her journey again. Violet was reluctant at first, afraid it would bring back too many painful memory's, but after a long lecture Violet decided to leave her family behind.

Lumineon (F) Aura
Pokémon bio’s: Cyndaquil is easily excitable and not very serious. He loves battling, and hates to lose. He absolutely loves Violet, although he feels frustrated with her battling skills.
New: Quilava is now a little more serious. He is willing to listen to Violet more often and has more confidence in both of them. He has no great love for Sneasel though.
Gastly is a jokester by nature, and loves to play 'pranks' whenever she can. However, her pranks usually involve scaring people, and surprising them. Yet Gastly will accept instructions without a second thought no matter what they are.
Sneasel is very happy to be part of Violet's team, and is probably the most sane out of all of them. Sneasel can be energetic, but he is calm and happy most of the time. He can still look pretty intimidating at times, and is often haunted by flashbacks of his previous trainer Tracey.
Lumineon is new to the team.
