Characteristic: Often lost in thought
Personality:
+ Selfless - Valentine will do whatever she can for others. Giving supplies, advice, a fight. Whatever she can do to help she will do, even if it takes her away from her own needs she doesn't mind.
+ Empathetic - Valentine tries to be in touch with others. Including their feelings, hearing others out and picking up on their ques to see how they're feeling and what she can do for them
+ Perserverant - Despite it all Valentine kept going. When she lost her crew. Lost her husband. Lost her ship. She kept going on, even when she felt so small among the sea she didn't take it laying down. She soared.
= Straightforward - Valentine is no nonsense. She doesn't dance around the details or add useless info, she says what is needed to be known at the moment and says it quickly. It always irks her when Flip goes into tangents
= Calm - The dunsparce is usually very lax and calm. Voice not usually getting loud, neutral but warm expression. She is simply calm and hopes others will be as well.
= Honest - Valentine's honesty is a trait she shares with Flip. It can both be harsh and fair but kind and reassuring. It's something the two captains will butt heads on.
- Resentful - If you've wrong Valentine it's likely you won't be able to win back her favor. She's very set in her ways and morals, if crossed she sees it as an unforgivable action. No matter how big or small it is.
- Antiquated - Despite the hardships of the past Valentine can't help but get stuck in it sometimes. Wishing she'd have done this or said that; maybe it would have made things better. Maybe she could still have it all, including the now. Almost idolizing the good of her past to imprint on the future
- Gossiper - Valentine has the rotten habit of spreading information she maybe shouldn't. She says she just wants to have a nice conversation with others, not quite realizing the harm. Other Pokemon joke her age is getting to her.
Island Name & Hometown: Autumnal Heights in the town of Cloverwood
History: When Valentine was a younger Pokemon she traveled with a different team of bounty hunters, Team Tidalwave. Leading alongside her husband. However her husband soon grew wild and sour. Taking on more harmful and violent tactics to get the team their bounty. Valentine refused to stand with it after one bounty turned deadly. Confronting her husband and saying it was either this twisted justice or she would walk. She walked. Her former partner turning her crew, her family, against her.
Now traveling on her own to right her wrongs Valentine will uphold the proper bounty hunting ways and bring justice to the islands, making sure her own crew upholds proper morals and make sure they do their job right. Happy to take in anyone that needs a meal and cot willing to work. Even if the pokemon seem to fall out of the sky into the haul.

Nature: Hasty
Characteristic: Capable of taking hits
Personality:
+ Loyal - A friend of Flip is a friend for life, no matter what. The budew will stick by your side and help you however you can. He cherishes the few friends he has like the sea and stars itself.
+ Attentive - Flip notice's the small things. How someone sits, how they eat, how they express themselves in their interests and fighting styles. He's got a keen eye for the seemingly unimportant. It's very important to him.
+ Confident - For better or worse Flip is very sure of himself and his abilities. He's not one to back down when push comes to shove on a job or about everyday life
= Scatterbrained - Likely due to the amnesia Flip has some trouble getting his thoughts together. Valentine offers it may just help with a new perspective, but it's still frustrating.
= Risky - Risk equals reward. Flip more often than not is willing to take those risks to get those rewards.
= Honest - Flip's honesty is a trait he shares with Valentine. Flip struggles with a filter so he'll usually say whatever comes to mind, rather blunt in truth. It's something the two captains will butt heads on.
- Brash - Flip is loud. Very. If he thinks he isn't being heard he'll get even louder. Even if it's annoying or not proper. He wants to be heard.
- Conformist - Flip may be confident but he still has the habit of trusting someone if they're "stronger" Typically doing whatever they say with little thought or resistance to it. It just makes sense someone strong has to be smart.
- Tempermental - With the confidence Flip has a small ego. He's quick to change from smiles and sun to glares and storms. Able to be egged on to fight about nearly anything. It's not his fault the other person is wrong!
Island Name & Hometown: Somewhere called an "Interspace" [Intergate Village on Kala Island]
History: Flip has no memory. Once happily living on an island that celebrated the beings of time and space. Due to being in contact with a powerful energy [some part of Flip believes it was Palkia and Dialga themselves, it was not] the budew had his memory wiped and was thrown halfway across the world Very harshly thrown into Valentine's ship nearly sinking the boat. He's still ribbed about the him sized hole patched over.
The only thing he really remembers is his own name, barely at that.
Ever since Flip has been sailing with Valentine. Hoping to maybe find where he came from, but it seems to be a lesser priority over having an adventure. It worries Valentine a little.
