He has 16 brothers and sisters, 5 grandparents, 9 aunts and uncles, and countless cousins, nieces and nephews. Because of that, he got used to working in situations with lots of other Pokémon, and eventually got a job with Gurdurr’s Construction Co. as one of their designers and builders.

Miracle Eye - Stella psychically reads where the pokemon is about to go so she has the ability to hit the pokemon even if they’re being very evasive. She can hit dark types with psychic moves as a side effect due to her targeting a part of the brain that dark types use to not be affected by psychic abilities.

(Move Tool) Helping Hand - Book - From reading from her book she can learn about an enemy pokemon’s weak spots, then she can tell a pokemon of her choosing to increase their move’s effectiveness against the enemy.

History: Stella Miru was raised by the Miru family that consisted of her mother, her sister and three adopted siblings. Her mother passed away when she was young from a illness that swept through the family, damaging Stella’s psychic abilities in the process and nearly taking her sister’s life. This left her three adopted siblings to take care of the sick duo, who had to take up jobs in the guilds to pay for their doctor bills. Once Stella got better, she joined the guilds as well; hoping to make enough money to pay for their collective debt and to have enough money to make sure they could all live happily.

To make sure no more sickness would take any of her family away from her, she started to learn about how the pokemon body worked, studying from any books she could get her hands on until she could save up enough money to take night classes to learn more professionally. Because of this emphasis on money throughout her life, she has become quite the penny pincher, obsessing about bills and every cent her guild group makes. Using what little psychic abilities she had left from her childhood, such has her ability to see a little bit into the future, she focuses on getting things done as quickly as possible, not quite caring if she cuts corners in the process. It is the end goal she is focused on, not the process of getting it done. This leaves her usually acting cold or completely logical.

Facts:

• The book she carries around is a copy from the local library; she has to check it back in every two weeks, if it’s damaged she does have to pay for it. She doesn’t want to have to pay for it.

• She visits her family often, making sure none of them had gotten sick or hurt while she was gone.

• Her psychic abilities were affected by the illness when she was younger, meaning all her psychic abilities were weakened and she can no longer use psychic, instead it would has become telekinesis due to her inability to deeply read pokemon’s minds and damage the pokemon.

• She can read pokemon’s surface thoughts; this mean if the pokemon has brought a thought up in their head, this means she can read it; but only if the pokemon is thinking about it. As soon as their thoughts change, she can’t read the previous thoughts anymore.
