Name: Rachel Kay
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Appearance: [url=http://whitepulse43.deviantart.com/art/School-Loli-Rachel-408631671]Seen here, cosplaying.[/url] Her normal clothing would be...something more like [url=http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1154848]this[/url], minus the headphones. She's about 5'4".
Power: Rachel has acquired a modified [url=http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/1/1f/Pok%C3%A9gear_HGSS_f.png]Pokegear[/url]. The first, and simpler of the modifications upgraded the device's map to function in a manner similar to an MPS, allowing it to be used to travel between worlds. Secondly, the part of the device used to scan expansion cards has been replaced by a slot that Rachel can insert one of a set of shards into, allowing her to access an outfit and abilities based on the Pokemon the shard came from. Unless otherwise mentioned, these all include some degree of enhanced strength, speed and toughness.
[list][*][url=http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Hitmonchan_(Pok%C3%A9mon)]Hitmonchan:[/url] By inserting the Hitmonchan shard into her Pokegear, Rachel gains the Punching Pokemon's abilities, namely superhuman upper body strength, enhanced speed, pro-level boxing skills due to a combination of punching attacks and the Iron Fist ability and the ability to imbue her fists with fire, ice or electrical energy. In addition, her outfit transforms into Hitmonchan's boxing outfit, complete with shoulder pads.[/*][*][url=http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Farfetchd_(Pok%C3%A9mon)]Farfetch'd:[/url] Rachel gains the Wild Duck Pokemon's leek-based combat skills, as well as the razor sharp vegetable required to use them. While she isn't capable of flying, she can jump far higher than should be humanly possible and is capable of gliding short distances. In addition, due to the Inner Focus ability, she is harder to distract from any given task. Whether due to this ability or a conscious effort after seeing how this shard affects her clothing, Rachel speaks in a way one might expect from a samurai. [url=http://www.japonic.com/vintage-men/hakama/hakama8.jpg] Unlike with Hitmonchan, her outfit is (thankfully) not a perfect copy of the pokemon's. Basically, pretend the katana's a large leek and you've got a basic idea of how she's dressed while using this shard.[/url][/*][*][url=http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Lotad]Lotad:[/url] Using the Water Weed Pokemon's abilities, Rachel can fire blasts of high-pressure water from her mouth or hands. Alternatively, she can fire a red beam which slowly drains energy from an enemy it hits to heal her injuries, though if the enemy moves out of the path of the beam, it ceases working. The most useful ability of the form as far as Rachel is concerned, is the fact that it enables her to swim, something she doesn't actually know how to do normally. While using the Lotad shard, Rachel's clothes are changed to a blue one-piece swimsuit under an oversized blue raincoat, in addition, she gains a hat that resembles a large lily pad.[/*][*][url=http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Gothita_(Pok%C3%A9mon)]Gothita:[/url] When she uses Gothita's shard, Rachel gains the power to fire beams of psychic energy, toss [b]inanimate[/b] objects around with telekinesis and release waves of energy to heal other people's injuries. In addition, thanks to the Fixation Pokemon's Unobstructed Sight ability, she gains something similar to x-ray vision. While using this shard, Rachel's pigtails change to be held in place by ribbons resembling Gothita's antennae, her clothes turn into black one-piece pajamas with a pattern resembling the one on Gothita's body and she gains a bow-tie.[/*][*][url=http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Growlithe_(Pok%C3%A9mon)]Growlithe:[/url] Using the Puppy Pokemon's shard, Rachel gains the power to breathe fire or surround herself with flames and tackle people. In addition, her teeth become sharper, allowing her to use them for biting attacks...which she is unlikely to do at any point. Thanks to Growlithe's Flash Fire ability, she is effectively immune to fire-based attacks and becomes stronger if hit with one. While using this shard, she gains a dog-eared headband and an orange jacket with a number of black stripes and a fur trim.[/*][*][url=http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Sylveon_(Pok%C3%A9mon)]Sylveon:[/url] The Sylveon shard is...rather unusual. The Intertwining Pokemon's Pixilate ability infuses her attacks with, for lack of a better term, fairy magic, boosting the strength of those not already based around this power. In addition, the ability causes a number of changes to Rachel, beyond the normal clothing change of the other shards, the most immediately noticeable being [url=http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1116177]changing her eye and hair colours, as well as making her pupils heart-shaped[/url]. She also gains a tendency to spout cheesy post-transformation catch phrases, as well as calling her attacks. In this form, Rachel gains the power to channel the power of the moon to create a destructive beam, conjure star-shaped projectiles that home in on their target, release a flash of light to blind opponents for a short time and focus all of her strength into a single physical strike, which causes insane amounts of damage if it connects, but leaves her completely exhausted afterwards, making it a last resort.[/*][/list]Faction: None.
World of Origin: Our Earth
Personality: Rachel is shy around people she doesn't know. However once she feels comfortable around someone, she becomes more cheerful and energetic, if a bit snarky at times. She can be surprisingly hammy, when she feels the situation calls for it. She is a fan of assorted manga and anime, mostly slice of life or action series, as well as assorted tokusatsu series. She tends to get mistaken for a teenager a lot.
Backstory: There isn't really much to say. Rachel has had a boring, ordinary life for the most part, having only gone out of Australia once prior to heading to Museum Island. She coasted through school without any real effort, getting decent grades in the process and then started studying to become a teacher. Having heard that most of her friends would be going away at around the same time she'd be on a break from classes, Rachel decided to go on a holiday of her own, conveniently deciding on the same place a number of people she knew online were going.
