Jovi Ryuuto

Personality: Jovi considers herself to be a mature person, and though she's much more down to earth than when she was younger the girl still has bouts of childish behavior, especially when things don't go according to plan. Though bright, she doesn't have much experience with the outside world. The farthest she has ever been away from her home is Agate Village, and she has an urge to proove herself to others.

Jovi has a fascination with gadgets, and enjoys putting things together; taking part in some research projects in her home and even drawing blueprints for her own. She has thirst for adventure and a need to proove herself to people because of all that her brother has done. This side of her has been cultivated heavily by the encouragement of Dr. Kaminko and Chobin. With their tutelage she has began to construct a flying robot designed after the legendary Rayquaza, though it still has many kinks to be worked out. Dr. Kaminko's house is the place she spends the most ammount of time next to the Pokémon HQ Lab, her home.

She holds her mother Lily and brother Michael very dear, and considers everyone at the Pokémon HQ Lab her family. Since she doesn't have any recolection of her father she doesn't feel sad that he's gone; but understands the times when Lily and Michael reminice about him, even though she feels a little jealous that she was too young to remember him.

Her relationship with Pokémon is a good one, Mimi and Pluplu have been her companions since early childhood and whereever she goes they're usually close behind. Besides Pokémon at the lab however she has had little experience with wild Pokémon. She does however know about Shadow Pokémon and has interacted with them before they were brought to the purifying chamber, and has learned to recognize certain characteristics of them.

Since she's of age Jovi wants to go out on a her journey, but since her mother fears for her safety she has been designated as odd jobber for the HQ instead to try and keep her busy. This has made her feel even more frustrated about starting her journey and getting to leave home.

Backstory: Jovi was born at the Pokémon HQ Lab Orre's Northwest. She spent her childhood playing around the HQ and with employees there whenever they had time away from their duties. When she was around five her mother's employer Prof. Krane gave Jovi her first two Pokémon, a Plusle and Minun. These two became her closest companions, however with them she also got into more trouble due to bo of their curious personalities.

This curiousity lead to Jovi stumbling upon Dr. Kaminko's house, where she met the doctor's assisstant Chobin. At first Jovi thought Chobin was a little weird since he wanted the little girl to battle with him. When Mimi and Pluplu shocked him in response to that order he started to laugh and asked if they could be friends. As the man never scolded her afterwards for coming on the property they soon became close and Chobin's request was granted; Jovi even adopted Chobin's verbal tic of speaking in third person while she was younger.

Though Dr. Kaminko was fine with her playing around the lab's grounds many people at the HQ don't know of Jovi's activities there until the time her brother Michael had to get her from there when people thought she had gone missing at the beginning of Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.

Jovi became afraid of straying away from home after a run in with a thug while Michael and her were getting parts in Gateon Port. Though she was scared it also gave her the drive to do more training with Mimi and Pluplu along with being more considerate to her friends around the lab.

Even though Michael began to travel far away from home Jovi never knew the multitude of his adventures until reports started to be shown on the news about her brother. This made Jovi idolize her brother more, though when he returned from his journey he was much different from the Michael she remembered. This caused a little bit of a rift between the siblings; though they still saw each other Jovi no longer asked Michael to play with her and started to focus more on training her own team. She no longer spoke in third person and when she became a teenager Jovi has had fits of temper and has been known to lock herself in her room to work on inventions.

In the time that's past Jovi has grown much more independent and unafraid of heading out on her own, yet since the dangers of Michael's trip were revealed to their mother Lily has kept Jovi on a short leash. As more Pokémon spots and life is returning to Orre after the years Jovi is anxious about capturing her own Pokémon and starting her journey, but Lily won't allow her to go unless she has supervision.

Appearance: Shoulder length blue hair (no more odango buns) that has a couple of bobby pins pinning her bangs to the side. Around 5'3 and beginning to show definition in her hips but overall pretty wiry. She has fair skin and noticibly large blue eyes. Wears gray leggings and has black combat boots along with a white long-sleeve turtleneck dress that has a trainer belt around her waist to keep her supplies and Poké balls that is usually govered by charcoal black zip up jacket when outdoors. Also wears gray gloves outside that are slightly rolled up since they're hand-me-downs from her brother.

Pokémon:

-Mimi and Pluplu-

Mimi (Minun) F/Impish/Highly persistent- Mimi has been with Jovi since the latter was a child. The Minun enjoys exploring every nook and cranny she can find, however this had caused her to get stuck multiple times. Without Pluplu she could've easily been lost many times.

Mimi has a habit of giving people small shocks when she wants them to pay attention to her or as pranks. She dislikes being out of her Poké ball and is usually seen riding on Jovi's shoulders or in the girl's arms.

Pluplu (Plusle) F/Brave/Proud of its power- Pluplu enjoys Pokémon battling and is always ready for one; at times she's known to underestimate certain foes. This has lead to some comical but dangerous accidents with other Pokémon at the HQ; and in certain areas she is not allowed to be in (though with Mimi's help usually sneaks in anyway whenJovi isn't around).

Has a habit of chewing on her paws when irritated and kept in her Poké ball when traveling between areas to make sure she doesn't run off. Other than that rides on Jovi's other shoulder along with Mimi.

(Note: This is Jovi, the younger sister of the Hero from Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness. Since this is post game I'm going to be taking liberties and going into head canon.)
