Rhys, what’s your relationship with your fathers, mother and siblings looks like?

· Leave a comment ·

I’d like to say I get along pretty well with my family members. I consider myself an easygoing guy, so that probably helps. Out of my parents, I think I get along with Dad (Brendan) the best, but that’s mainly since we share the most hobbies. We both love spending time outdoors and learning about pokémon. The other reason is that Father, being a Gym Leader, and Mom, being a Frontier Brain, are both professional trainers, while I’m a coordinator, so sometimes it’s a bit harder to connect with them that way. Dad’s a professor, so we can just bond over loving pokémon. That’s not to say I don’t get along with Father and Mom though! Father had a brief stint as a coordinator back when he was around my age and was pretty good at it, so he often gives me advice on my upcoming contests. His perspective is pretty different from mine, so it’s always helpful to hear his opinion on things. Plus, I feel like it’s kind of impossible not to get along with Father. He’s just such a nice guy in general, haha. As for Mom, I guess sometimes she can feel a bit distant since we don’t have a lot in common, but I know she really cares about me and my siblings. Mom is definitely the one I go to when I need someone to help me through a difficult decision. She’s really good at laying out all the facts and helping me look at all possible approaches to a problem. Plus she’s really smart which is great for when I get stuck on homework!

As for my siblings, well, I wish I could say I got along with them all as well as I do my parents. Layla and I get along fine, but sometimes I feel like she tries too hard to be a perfect big sister, especially with our younger siblings. She was never too smothering with me, but she can be crazy overprotective of Eve and Edward. I keep trying to tell her that they can handle themselves, but as usual she doesn’t really listen to me. I think she thinks I’m a bit of an airhead or something. I wish she would come to my contests more, even though I get she’s busy with her Interpol work. Eve is a sweetheart and I would fight anyone who tries to hurt her, well, if I didn’t know she can handle anything herself just fine. I think people tend to see her as a delicate flower – pun intended – but she’s really pretty badass in her own right. Just ‘cause she doesn’t like conflict doesn’t mean she isn’t strong! I wish more people could figure that out. Also, compared to Mom’s empathy meaning she can always tell when something’s bothering me and be all fussy, Layla’s precognition meaning she’s always paranoid that something that may not even happen is going to kill us all, and Ed’s telekinesis meaning he breaks things with his mind every time he gets teenage hormonal (which is all the time), Eve’s plant-control powers are so much less of a bother, even though I know she could kill me with vines if she wanted to. But that’s the beautiful thing about Eve, she wouldn’t hurt a fly and makes pretty flowers to give me with her powers instead. I love you Eve. And as for Edward, well, I already gave my opinion on his powers (I don’t care that telekinesis is like, the most common esper power I will never forgive him for breaking my stereo when I didn’t let him watch an R-rated movie that one time). But really, I just want to be there for him. I know he’s going through his angsty teen phase or whatever, but he’s just so angry all the time it makes me kind of sad. I don’t know how to help him though, since he always gets mad at me when I try and talk to him. I hope he has someone else in the family, or a friend at least, who he can talk to…. I try my best to be a good big brother, but I’m not even living at home anymore so it’s kind of hard to be there for my little sister and brother. Well, as long as I’m trying my best, right! 

Anise, which of your many stunts do you 100% love and constantly do all the time?

Not sure if you mean my pranks or my rollerblading tricks, so I’ll be generous and answer both for free! While it’s not really a prank, I love fireworks of all kinds and setting them off is super fun! Of course, if I get caught I’ll get in trouble, so part of the fun is finding somewhere secret to try out the sparklers and firecrackers I get my hands on. They’re also good for scaring the lil’ punk kids who hang around the Gym and Tower sometimes looking for trouble. I’m kinda a keeper of the peace by scaring them off, huh? 
As for my rollerblading skills, which are great, by the way, while easy tricks like skating backwards, grinds, and slalom are fun, currently I’m working on perfecting my hockey turn. Of course, since I’m a great skater I’m can totally do them just fine, I just need to perfect it, okay? Everyone falls sometimes, okay? 

Levi, if you could meet any famous artist anywhere, who would you wanna meet?

· Leave a comment ·

Hmmm, this is a tough one! I’ve been lucky to get the chance to meet a lot of famous coordinators thanks to my own work, and my connections, of course – being from a family with a number of famous coordinators and contest idols has its perks! But for those I haven’t met….. someone that comes to mind is Mrs. Aria Labelle, the former Kalos Queen and famous performer! She’s retired from performing now, but watching her and her pokémon’s performances when I was younger was a huge inspiration to me. I found her passion for performing and dream of making people smile to be super motivating. Honestly, if I could have even a fraction of her spirit and success I would consider my goals as a contest idol to be fulfilled. Getting to meet her in person one day is definitely a dream of mine!  

Renato, Celeste, which of you would win at arm/thumb wrestling against each other?

· Leave a comment ·

Renato: Of course I would win. I’m taller, I work out more, and I’m older.
Celeste: Oh, really? Alright then, I challenge you right here right now to an arm wrestling match!
Renato: If you want to get trounced then be my guest.
[The two get in position.]
Celeste: All right, three, two, one, go!
[They struggle for a bit, but Renato clearly has the upper hand and is pushing Celeste’s arm down]
Celeste, with an evil glint in her eyes: Did you know Euphie is going to propose to you?
Renato: WHAT
[As her brother is momentarily frozen in shock, Celeste slams his arm down on the table]
Celeste: BOO YAH! I win! HA! Take that! Superior sibling, coming through.
Renato: You cheating little…. -wait was what you said true?
Celeste: How should I know? I just knew it would freak you out.
Renato: Why you!! Get back here!
[He chases her out of the room, Celeste cackling the whole time as she’s fleeing.]

Sage! what’re your favourite things to photograph? or like what types of subject do you find yourself photographing a lot? (eg. pics of people, landscape, objects)

· Leave a comment ·

My favorite thing to photograph is nature! I want to be a professional nature photographer as my career, so that’s what I focus on. I suppose I sometimes do portraits for friends and family…. but only since they ask, you know? When it comes to nature, I specifically like to photograph pokémon. I used to take pics of all the pokémon living at dad’s lab, but once I was older and actually knew what I was doing I started going out in the woods and fields to photograph wild pokémon. I love spending time outdoors, and I really like getting to go out into the middle of nowhere and capture that beautiful scenery and wildlife on camera. I even won a regional photography contest for the magazine I dream of working for, so, you know, I’m actually pretty damn good.

Layla what’s your favourite food, drink, and snack? Also, do you have like, a breakfast meal you routinely eat (same meal every breakfast), or does it constantly change (each breakfast meal is different)?

· Leave a comment ·

Hmmm, my favorite food is probably crepes. I love how you can get them in sweet or savory flavors, so they can be either a meal or dessert! You can also eat them on the go, which is always useful since I usually don’t have time for a sit-down lunch break. I tried a buckwheat flour savory crepe recently that I really enjoyed! As for drinks…. I will confess to having a soft spot for bubble tea, especially with grass jelly. I suppose this is a good answer for desserts or snacks as well, since I love most jelly or pudding snacks – especially the colorful ones like kuih lapis! Cute desserts are definitely the best, bonus points if they are my favorite color purple. Well… I might just have a sweet tooth in general, haha.

For breakfast…. well, I’m usually in a rush, so a pastry and coffee is my go to. I try to get different pastries every day though, so I’m not eating the same thing all the time. Of course, sweet pastries are preferred, though I don’t mind savory ones once in a while.

You have so many kids, I don’t know who to choose! So let’s do same name buddies? How about Kyra with 4, 8, 23, 24, 27, 45, and 49?

· Leave a comment ·

Sure thing! (Fair warning, Kyra is one of my ‘minor fankids’ meaning she would fall under the ‘npc with one or two lines’ category in a pokémon game. That doesn’t mean she’s not an interesting person though! I just don’t know a whole ton about her haha.)

4. What do they look like?
Kyra takes after her mother, Dahlia, in coloring, with black hair, blue eyes, and tanned skin, but her features and wavy hair are closer to her father, Lucian. She’s of average height and on the skinnier side. She is near sighted, but wears contacts unlike her father and brother, who wear glasses.

8. What’s their sense of style/fashion?
Kyra prefers very professional, preppy clothing. She likes blazers, button-down shirts, pencil skirts, dressy flats and low heels especially. She typically wears her hair in a low bun to keep it out of her face rather than try anything fancy with it. She typically wears light makeup – concealer, mascara, and lip tint.

23. Which traits they share with their parent(s)?
Kyra is very similar in personality to her father. Both are bookworms, both have an interest in the human mind (philosophy and the science of espers for Lucian, psychology for Kyra), both are espers (tekinetics, specifically, which is the most common esper ability), and both have similar fashion sense. Kyra does share some traits with her mother, however, aside from looks. She loves music, especially fast paced music and while she doesn’t dance, she does tap her feet to the beat. She also loves games of chance, a huge guilty pleasure she also shares with Dahlia, and can often be found in the Veilstone Game Corner when not at working on her Masters Degree at Veilstone University.

24. How do they get along with their parent(s)?
Kyra gets along quite well with both her parents – perhaps a bit more with her father due to their similar personalities. She and Lucian also have a lot of shared interests that they will talk for hours about. Most of Kyra and Dahlia’s interactions involve Dahlia taking her second daughter out on the town for shopping trips, dinner out, maybe a movie. Kyra really appreciates this since she doesn’t really get out much on her own and enjoys the time spent bonding with her mother. In this case, their differences make their relationship work out well since they can introduce each other to new things.

27. Are they closer with one parent over the other?
Already kind of answered this above, but Kyra is definitely closer to Lucian.

45. What are they like at parties?
Kyra is definitely not a party person. She’d be the type to find a quieter room or corner and spend the party talking with a few people and nursing one drink for the whole night. She’s not one for dancing or mingling and dislikes getting drunk, not to mention the noise would bother her as she wouldn’t be able to hear the conversation she’s trying to have. In the end, she would probably try to simulate a small gathering by hanging out with a small group in a quite area rather than attend the actual main party.

49. Are they superstitious?
Kyra claims not to be superstitious as it’s unscientific and merely the human mind trying to find control over random chance in life etc etc, but she totally has a few little rituals she swears by, especially when it comes to the slot machines. Overall though, she’s definitely not a superstitious person aside from a few small habits.
