HANNAH CANTRELL
Height: 5’8” (sans heels)
Age: 27
Hometown: Anistar, Kalos
Rival: None yet
Coalition: Black Briar [BBco]
Personality: Educated and highly intelligent, the manager of the Black Briar Coalition is verbose, opinionated, and intolerant of what she calls “foolishness”. She can be deathly cold to those she views as against her, but does show some degree of care towards those with whom she shares mutual respect - even if that sometimes manifests itself in telling them things that they "need" (but don't want) to hear.
Bio: Originally born in Kalos to a scientist father and artist mother, Hannah attended Hearthome University in Sinnoh, where she achieved a Master’s degree in intra-species variation - how two pokemon technically of the same species can have very different strengths and weaknesses. During this time, she was a prominent figure in her university’s pokémon battling circuit, and also took on part-time jobs involving coaching the children of wealthy families in Pokémon raising and battling.
Some of her students made it into the local under-18s tournament, and two faced off against one another in the semi-finals - which Austi Reign, executive director of the Black Briar Group, was attending in order to check out up-and-coming talents. After watching what was a notably exciting match for the competition level, and hearing the gossip that both semifinalists shared a coach, he sought Hannah out and introduced himself. A few meetings later, and Hannah had accepted his invitation to work as part of the Group.
Three years later and Hannah is now spearheading the Black Briar Coalition, an open academy that seeks to provide trainers with an opportunity to enhance their skills and learn from the Group’s industry specialists - and hopefully find new clients in the process.

POKÉMON
PERRINE
Species: Gardevoir
Sex: Female
Ability: Synchronise
Held Item: None
Non-levelled moves: Destiny Bond (from Trevenant father)
Bio: Hannah’s original pokémon, Perrine’s delicate appearance and quiet disposition belies a highly adaptive nature.
VALÉRY
Species: Roserade
Sex: Male
Ability: Poison Point
Held Item: None
Non-levelled moves: Shadow Ball, Solar Beam (from TMs)
Bio: Hannah’s second-caught pokémon and her most frequently-used in battles, Valéry is an elegant creature with a calm, self-satisfied (occasionally smug) nature. As close to a heavy hitter as Hannah has on her team, he is surprisingly hard to take down even with physical attacks, using powerful healing moves - particularly his often-lethal Giga Drain - to overcome any defensive weaknesses.
AMÉ
Species: Vivillon (garden)
Sex: Male
Ability: Shield Dust
Held Item: None
Non-levelled moves: Struggle Bug, Infestation, U-Turn (from TMs)
Bio: Hannah’s most recently caught pokémon, Amé is loud and boisterous, with a habit of repeatedly bumping into people and pokémon he is affectionate towards while chittering loudly. Boasting a formidable arsenal of status moves, he is generally used as the initial wearing-down assault, and is commonly swapped out using U-Turn when the opponent is sufficiently mired in status effects.
MAILYS
Species: Floette (red)
Sex: Female
Ability: Flower Veil
Held Item: None
Non-levelled moves: Sunny Day, Safeguard (from TMs)
Bio: As a Flabébé, Mailys was given to Hannah as a graduation present (along with a Shiny Stone that was given to Valéry) and has a very pretty engraved Luxury Ball (though she can often be found perched on Hannah’s shoulder). She is a sweet, quiet creature who seems to only come out of her shell when around Valéry, at whom she will chatter endlessly. Rather vulnerable when battling on her own, she shines in double+ battles, in particular when paired with Valéry; her speed, unusually high for a Floette, gives her the chance to utilise her multiple ally-boosting abilities before her opponents have had a chance to act.
