Armello [Male Gloom]: A shy creature, this Gloom was received by Fern as a gift from her grandmother upon graduating from a semester in her herbal medicine class. Stressed over final exams led to Fern's condition to become aggravated and almost led her to become once again, terminally ill. Her grandmother hoped that the soothing aromatherapy of a Grass-Type Pokémon would help to soothe Fern and reduce the risk of an unnecessary hospital visit. Since Armello is a higher level experience level than his trainer can attempt to command, it is often difficult to have her Gloom battle due to his bashful nature. Armello is readily able to assist Fern in her studies on fragrances and herbs and with patience and frequent training, she hopes to mold her Gloom into a powerful Vileplume. Level: 22 Ability: Chlorophyll Move Pool: Sweet Scent, Sleep Powder, Stun Spore, Mega Drain Wattson [Male Wooper]: An eager addition to Fern's party, Wattson was Fern's first official Pokémon capture at age 17 when her father took her into the forests that border Violet City in order to teach her how to catch and train Pokémon. Nervous and paranoid for the dangers that lurked in the lush wooded foliage, Fern was surprised to find the most carefree Pokémon. Wooper, the Water Fish Pokémon had ventured close to the two trespassers in search of delicious honey that it presumably smelled along one of the forest riverbeds. An afternoon of delight ensued between this adorable amphibious Pokémon and Fern who had come to appreciate a Pokémon that was not necessarily Grass-Type. Wattson is easily Fern's most avid fighter in her roster, and though his experience is small he will never back down on a challenge and is always ready for a chance to hone his skills. Level: 12 Ability: Unaware Move Pool: Water Gun, Mud Shot, Mud Sport

The length of her dirty-blonde hair cascades down her face and clings to her features like the tendrils of a Tangela's vine. This is the way Fern prefers to have her hair "styled", messy and unkept making it easy to shroud the more noticeable signs of her condition. Although try as she may, her spirit refuses to be silenced by a tangled mess of locks. Peering behind the underbrush, a pair of piercing emerald eyes cut through the hair and sparkle brilliantly like two precious gems. Underneath she wears a mask of ash, a marking under the eyes that display fatigue and illness. Her secrets are not well hidden, scarring along the shoulder and down her arm suggest a trauma met at an early age.
Fern, although not impressive at a first glance, possesses a unique interpretation on the word 'beauty", Wardrobe is limited to a couple of simple gowns that drape like a tarp and swallow the small girl in a sea of fabric. Alabaster coats the entirety of her skin, pale and neglected it holds no treasures such as pendants or jewelry. Fern's connection with nature strengthens with each step she takes, without the hindrance of any footwear she allows soft blades of grass to hug at the sides of her feet and the sharp pebbles to kiss the soles. A small crossbody bag tailored to be the likeness of the flycatcher Pokémon, Victreebel, hugs the contours of her body and holds some of her most cherished possessions.

The quiet demeanor of this girl invokes pity into all that converse with her. A true spirit of gratitude and fairness, Fern actively embodies the symbolism of the one Pokémon she dreams of encountering. Passionate and creative, she offers her artistic opinion to those who ask and uses confidence as a learning experience to those who are doubtful of their work. As an apprentice aromatherapist, she aims to bring the joy of fragrance to everyone she meets and uses an arsenal of Pokémon to grow wonderful berries and flowers.
Fern has an incredible attraction towards Grass-Type Pokémon, but manages to respect any other type of Pokémon a Trainer might use. All but the Poison-Type, as her childhood incident has traumatized her from ever trusting a Poison-Type Pokémon that was not part Grass-Type. Often her irrational fear can lead to some people becoming offended or hurt by her behaviors. Though subconsciously she is aware she must face her fears, Fern hopes that she will not have to anytime soon.

Located in the rich and historic Violet City, Fern was raised here under the guardianship of her mother, father, and grandparents. An artistically inclined child, she increasingly enjoyed living alongside Pokémon to scribble them in crayon whenever the chance was available. In her sixth year, an unusual phenomena occurred when the Venomoth from neighboring forests of Violet City began to release pheromones for a premature mating season. Before long a blanket of Poison Moth Pokémon had eclipsed the sun and shrouded the city in darkness resulting in an emergency evacuation for the entire city.
At such a young age, Fern had become lost in the crowd of panicked citizens and was separated from her family. Before long, a mist of purple spores laced the surface of the city and the Poison Powder of this Pokémon had begun to fill the lungs of the citizens of Violet City. Holding her breath as best as she could, the young girl tried to force her way through the chaos of the city streets but eventually exhausted a clean oxygen source. Fainted on the ground, it was not long before her father forced his way to her rescue. Fern's chances of recovery were slim as she lay in bed for three days straight, coughing the thick fibrous pollen from her lungs in an attempt at one clean breath of air.
No doctor could be able to perform surgery on such a young girl, and all hope had seemed lost until a travelling medicine woman reached the edge of the city. Informed on the plight, she immediately set to work on an aromatherapy regimen for the child. For four days, the woman would introduce a different grass type Pokémon to the girl to relieve a different symptom. The medicine woman was confident in her practice and the therapy regimen began first thing the next morning. A Sunflora, the Sun Pokémon, was introduced on the first day. On this day, the medicine woman burnt a blend of sage and sandalwood and let the sunlight cast directly into the room. The Sunflora's Chlorophyll produced calming aromas that reduced fever in the young girl's condition.
The second morning introduced a Weepinbell, the Flycatcher Pokémon. The medicine woman provided an herbal tea and the assistance of the Weepinbell's Sleep Powder to combat the child's insomnia. A Snover, the Frost Tree Pokémon, was introduced on the third day. On this day, the medicine woman readied a tincture of Aspear berries as the Snover made use of its Mist acting as a humidifier for the congested girl. The fourth day introduced the Seed Pokémon, Venusuar. This time, the medicine woman practiced no ritual and instead instructed the Venusaur to escort Fern into a clearing located in the forest at the edge of town. There the two spent hours watching the leaves fall and the sun set as almost miraculously all signs of the toxins had vanished. The Venusaur's Aromatherapy had effectively removed the Poison Powder from Fern's bloodstream making the girl eternally grateful to the medicine woman and her Grass-Type Pokémon. Though her affliction has been lifted, signs of its history paint under her eyes dark and the right side of her body in scarring. When flustered or upset, the remnants of Poison Powder within her lungs cause Fern to begin a coughing fit.

As the spring leaves began to show sign of age, summer reaches the quiet residence of the Brookwater household. Tears of happiness stream down the faces of all in the room yet, nothing is said. Goodbyes are met with bittersweet embraces and with a swallow of courage, Fern begins her summer-long adventure to catalog and find exciting new herbal ingredients. With two trusted allies on her side, she knows the road ahead will now be less difficult with their help. As the morning sun rises beyond the horizon a familiar Wooper splashes a water-gun playfully at Fern and bounds down to road heading off out into the unknown.[/quo
