AppearanceStanding at a slightly above average height of five feet seven inches, Dahlia's most notable trait is her long, dark blue hair with pink undertones. She has pale skin and sports a thin, willowy frame with long limbs and a few noticeable curves. Her large, bright blue eyes give her a rather innocent look, her long nose and lips giving her an elegant look. She takes very good care of herself, her hair is almost always done, nails manicured, and blemish free. She leans towards what she calls a 'simply classy' state of dress, her wardrobe consisting of simple pieces that she likes to dress up or down with accessories. Heels are her absolute favorite, though her sunglasses collection is a very close second, both often being brand name despite the rest of her clothes being whatever she got for a bargain.

BackgroundBorn in Lilycove City the eldest of three siblings, Dahlia has always been the type of person to do as she pleases since she was young. Despite her parents running the Lilycove Department Store, she has always had more of an interest in pokémon. Battles were nice, but were a little too straightforward, too easy and brutish for her. To her, contests always had this flourish of technique and style, so it was a given after she got her first pokémon, a Feebas, and began her journey to stardom. She adored the limelight and elegance of contests, throwing herself into her craft. After years of practice and entries, she eventually ended up earning multiple ribbons in the Beauty category.
A few years back, she met another trainer by the name of Elena. She had come from the Orre Region, and after competeing, the two became quick friends, keeping in touch for some time. When Dahlia went to visit Elena as a surprise, she found out that her friend had joined a group called Team Snagem. Despite immediately wanting to decline, Dahlia wondered why her supposed friend would want to join Snagem. Doing a small investigation of her own, she followed Elena and stumbled on an operation in which they had somehow gotten their hands on what looked like a blue Ralts and had intended to take it away. Springing into action out of impulse, a battle ensued, although she underestimated their brutishness and barely managed to escape with the Ralts in tow.
Despite going to the authorities, little was done after the matter. Apparently Team Snagem had been something of a recurring issue with Orre, a fact unknown to the Hoenn-born woman, but she found that it was difficult to do nothing. Taking the Ralts in her care, she ended up clashing with Team Snagem several times after that. It came to a head recently when a particularly violent, corrupted Sceptile critically injured her Milotic. Deciding that she needed to be smarter, not stronger, she decided to go to Professor Krane, who was rumored to have something that could help with the 'shadow' pokemon she had encountered.

PokébeltKirlia - The most recent addition to Dahlia' group, being the same Ralts she had rescued. Her appearance is striking as a shiny and was likely the reason behind her capture. Her elegance needs to be worked on, but she's battle ready, so she kept her around and left the rest of her pokemon in Lilycove.
Personal ComputerMisty [Milotic] - Dahlia' contest champion and longtime friend. She has won her multiple ribbons and is the most well known of all her pokémon. Due to suffering sustained injuries from Iris' blowout with Team Snagem, she is currently receiving treatment and out of commission.
