Fankid Week Day 4: Rivalries

Featuring Ambrose and the terrible twins, Chelsea & Merrill! aka Rivals who are taller than you are twice as annoying.

Ambrose is Bede’s son and Victor’s stepson and the oldest of seven siblings. He’s a fairy-type trainer who wants to take over his father’s gym one day and loves period fashion and aesthetics, aspiring to be a proper gentleman like the heroes of his favorite dramas and romances. While on his Gym Challenge, he also wants to figure out where he came from, as it’s not something his parents ever fully discussed with him.

Chelsea & Merrill are Leon, Piers & Raihan’s twins (biologically Piers/Raihan). The two of them are often seen causing trouble together and both train primarily dark and dragon-types. While they love battling, neither twin has any interest in becoming a Gym Leader or trying for the Champion spot, preferring to live life their own way and have the most fun as possible. Chelsea tends to be more energetic and mischievous, while Merrill is a bit more laid back and snarky.

Since they’re such opposites, and as the three oldest Galar fankids, it was natural that Ambrose and the twins ended up as rivals. Chell and Rill take any opportunity they can to challenge Ambrose to a battle or even just to tease him, which Ambrose never appreciates. Maybe one day he can catch a break or even befriend the duo… though to Ambrose that seems a long ways off.
