- - - - -Appearance:
Looking almost like a doll in the way she dresses, Catherine's choice of clothing has been known to draw the attention of a few heads. With a body of pale peach skin, Catherine has very light freckles spread around her cheeks. Somewhat dinky in height, Catherine stands at around 5ft, her naturally slender figure weighing in at around 100lbs. A pair of emerald green eyes twinkle excitedly in the middle of her oval face, cheeks usually flushed with a cheerful glow. Holding a petite nose and narrow lips, the teenage girl is often seen wearing light make up consisting of a pale foundation, soft pink lip gloss and dark mascara to border her large eyes. Continuing with her pale theme is Catherine's soft blonde locks, strands falling messily to frame her eyes whilst the rest is pulled to the right hand side of her head in a scrunchy fashion. As her hair reaches way past her waist, the young girl doesn't quite like the idea of cutting her prized locks off and instead ties them up into a pair of rings, to mimic the world wide hair style of a particular set of nurses.
Wanting to look the part of being a nurse, Catherine took it upon herself to order a rather over the top custom outfit from overseas and is very rarely seen in anything else. On top of her messy head of blonde hair, Catherine wears a small nurses cap adorned with a large pink ribbon on the right hand side which flows between her hair. The cap has a pattern of a Pokeball etched into the material with a cross in this center, indicating her healing nature. Around her shoulders she wears a light weight crimson coloured cloak which can be lifted up and over the back of her head to also act as a hood. On her arms sit a pair of detached puffy crimson sleeves which curve up into a point and meet her cloak, the rims are also decorated with a pale pink frill.
Rather than wearing a sensible top and trousers, Catherine has instead opted for a large frilly dress which stretches out to about the length of her stretched out arms. Sleeveless, the top half of the white boned corset section of the dress sits tightly around her torso, a pale pink ribbon wrapping around her waist a number of times which is infact attached to a small apron which sits on the top of the first layer of extravagant frills that make up her dress, many under layers consisting of all sorts of patterns and lace and giving the outfit more of an uplift and flow. Pulled up her slender legs she wears a pair of long thigh high pure white stockings, each finished off with a pair of flat red shoes and ribbon tied tightly around her ankles.
Personality:
When looking at her brightly coloured, frill layered and girlish choice of clothing, one would probably believe that her personality would be just as sugary sweet to match, in which they would be correct. Catherine likes to think of herself an energetic bundle of fun wrapped up nicely in a ribbon, possessing childish traits which fit her appearance so closely that they go hand in hand with each other. Rarely seen without her trademark bright smile and flustered cheeks, Catherine's energetic steps and softly spoken voice may sometimes make her seem much younger than she actually is, leading some to treat her as a young child, which she actually quite enjoys. Looking at life in a positive light despite the few negative events which happened in her past or may even happen in the future, the blonde female always seems to have a carefree skip in her step, turning the corners of life with a smile no matter what may be waiting for her.
Even though she may startle people by randomly bouncing over to them in her frilly gown and calling out at the top of her voice to gain their attention, Catherine always means well. Usually introducing herself in a polite and friendly manner, excitement of meeting new people and Pokemon eventually overcome her, the blonde becoming a little too nosy or invading personal space more than she means to. Since aiming to become a nurse, young Catherine has the tendency to ask even mere strangers if they need any medical attention. Upon seeing any signs of injuries, her cheerful personality seems to fade away within an instant and is replaced with a nagging, irritating and pestering one.
When deep down she is only worried, she portrays it as anger and often complains about how careless they are and that they should look after themselves better. Catherine can also be quite clingy, especially if she has taken a particular liking to you and even when trying to shrug her away she will be adamant in staying by your side for as long as needed. Whilst almost every trainer around her detest the sight of members from Teams such as Rocket or Plasma, the blonde girl may come across as strange by not feeling such emotions when seeing them. Afterall, she wants to see people happy and healthy, even if it means healing up the enemy.
History:
Born into a place lined with cobbled streets and tradition following civilians, the quiet town of Lacunosa on the north eastern edge of Unova seemed like a good place for newly married couple Tabitha and Lawrence Everett to start a nice little family. Already having a young daughter that went by the name of Christina, the little girl always dreamed of having a younger sibling to play with in the dull town and soon enough her parents felt the same, thus Catherine was born. Although being incredibly young at the time and not really remembering much in her current days, Catherine and Christina were infact both the best of friends and well behaved siblings through their younger years, their young and playful nature often bringing smiles to the few faces of the Lacunosa and bringing a breath of fresh air to their usually strict routines... Until one eventful night.
At the ages of 6 and 8, both siblings began to grow a bit more of a cheeky side to them, Christina more than her younger more angelic sibling. Having a bit of a temper tantrum at the dinner table after not being able to watch the cartoon Reuniclus' Laboratory on television, both of the young girls were sent up to their room where they thought up a cunning plan to get back at their parents. Or, Christina more than Catherine anyway. Open the bedroom window, the two tied up their bedsheets and any extra blankets together at the tips, wrapping it tightly around the bedpost of their bunk beds, the two then had a make shift rope to fling out of their window. At first Catherine was a bit nervous but soon followed her slightly older sister as she flew down it with great ease. Landing with a bit of a nasty bump, the two blondes found themselves in the town in the dead of the night and oddly, not one single soul was out. Excited to have the entire town to themselves, to two quietly dashed away from home, chasing each other up and down the cobbled steps until they eventually reached the edge of town. Although this was starting to get too much for the younger sibling, Christina thought that leaving town would be more than enough to show their parents that they were wrong and thus, charged on regardless.
Watching helplessly as her sister charged into the forest, Catherine was about to nervously wander in aswell until the sound of wild rustles, splashes of water and a gut wenching cry echoed through the trees. It wasn't her sister at all, it was more like some sort of monster! In a panic, Catherine rushed straight back home, banging on the door with tears streaming down her face as her parents angrily ushered her inside whilst they went out to find their other naughty daughter. Only, as the sun raised to tell everyone that it was morning, no one returned home. For the entire day Catherine sat outside on their doorstep, waiting and hoping for someone to return home but as night crept back in once again there was still no sign of them at all. It wasn't until the next day where a few locals wandered past her, pointing and whispering loudly about how they felt so sympathetic towards her. Of course, she didn't understand a single word what they were saying but later that day all was made clear. Walking up the set of steps towards her house this time wasn't locals or her family members, but instead a duo of policemen, the story of her parents not returning to her being spoken in the most gentlest way possible. Truth was that her parents became lost in the immense forest which sat behind the protective wall that surrounded the town, rumours of a terrifying beast which lived in the foliage most likely being the cause of their disappearance. Whether it was a beast of something else, however, the young and devastated Catherine was placed in the local orphanage upon having no other family to turn to.
Several months had past since the event and Catherine soon understood the fellow few children in the orphanage to be her new family. Though many of them were much more mischievous and misbehaved than herself, so much so that she didn't quite understand them sometimes and just hung around in the background. Especially towards a particular elderly lady who had recently moved into the town. Word of mouth had said the lady was once a great trainer who now healed passing travellers with her herbal medicines and jolly exterior... Well that translated as a strange witch in the children's eyes, that or just a new play thing to drive out. After only living in town for a mere few days, the orphanage children started their hit and run assaulting, breaking flower pots outside of her house, knocking on the doors and windows, randomly scribbling mess on her doors and walls, all of them except for Catherine. Despite the old lady's property being vandalised, she would always walk out with a welcoming smile and offer them treats only to have several tongues stuck out at her before being called a witch and then running off. Again, all except for Catherine. The little blonde girl always felt weird upon seeing her, a strange connection of love and longing, rather than bullying her she wanted to learn more about the mysterious woman. So instead of running back to the orphanage everyday, she instead picked up all the flower pot shards and offered to help wash down the walls, it wasn't long until the woman also took a shining to Catherine herself.
The elderly woman was known as Odette Dawson, a retired nurse who once lived in Opelucid City with her husband and was also good friends with a fellow nurse there who lived in the small settlement known as the Village Bridge. After the recent loss of her husband, Odette upped and left the busy city life for a more quiet and peaceful one but finding such an intriguing child was one of the least things she thought would happen. After multiple visits, Odette eventually took Catherine under her wing, bringing her out of her shy and nervous shell and bringing her up to be the energetic girl she is today. As Catherine grew older, she began to take an interest in becoming a nurse herself upon hearing the adventures of Odette which she had in her past. The idea of feeling needed by anyone and anything with her healing hands really uplifted her spirit and although she didn't particularly like talking about it, she hoped that she could save a few children from losing their family members like she had done in the past.
A bit hesitant at first, Odette contacted her friend at Village bridge to help the young girl accomplish her dream, the elderly woman not wanting to teach her anything herself as she felt she had failed to protect her husband in the past. From young teens to mid teens, Catherine was taught under Odette's friend about the basics of nursing both humans and Pokemon as well as a bit of Pokemon breeding. Of course, the few things what she learnt was only something like taking care of small wounds and avoiding particular poisonous what lingered in the forests of Unova but the blonde girl wanted something a little more. Learning about just how many creatures and other regions were outside of Unova, Catherine decided to take a giant leap into maturity by going on an adventure of her own, to make both her deceased family and Odette proud.

Dream Teams
Deerling, Rhyhorn, Mamoswine
[[ Theme Song, Taiyou Iwaku Moeyo Chaos - Okamoto Miyuu ]]
[[ Alternate Theme Song, Koi wa Chaos no Shimobe nari - Haiyore! ]]" Before stepping on the ferry that took her to the land of Johto, Catherine noticed a funny looking merchant wrapped in a head cloth and sitting on a colourful, delicate patterned rug surrounded by a ton of mystical looking items. Intriuged by this display, the blonde rushed over only to pick out a long wooden box etched with all sorts of elegant looking patterns. Listening to the man chuckle, he explained that only the fairest and purest of hands could open the box and if she chose to have a go, she could keep whatever was inside. Well, little did she know that it was really just any ordinary box and the dressed up merchant was infact a Team Rocket member who stole a truck full of items and charged over seas to the safety of Unova, obviously here to just get rid of the stolen goods as quickly as possible to the most gullible people he could come across... Catherine being one. As she undid the hatch, the man let out an incredibly fake gasp, trying his best not to laugh as Catherine's eyes opened wider in wonderment to see several Pokeballs lined up in a row. Before even reaching the Professor, it seemed she had luckily aquired a good team of her own already.
