You know what? Clarissa — my Pokemon Trainer S/I— lore be upon you because of Scarlet and Violet

She was born on Sinnoh in Twinleaf Town and when she was 10, she started her Pokemon journey with her friend Barry. But her start was… pretty unique to most other Trainers.

You see, Professor Rowan was keeping a wild Gible in his lab at the time. It had wandered into town, exhausted and hungry. Rowan was planning on getting it back to health, and then releasing it.

But once the Gible saw Clarissa, it became immediately attached to her. It followed at her feet like a duckling and only listened to her commands. Initially she was a little freaked out, but then she was estatic (she could be a bit more like her idol, Clair of the Johto Region).

Rowan eventually agreed to let Clarissa take care of the Gible (which she nicknamed Fangor) and she picked her starter Pokemon, Turtwig (Pistachio).

She’s been journeying for a long time: she’s collected all the regions’ badges (in rough order: Sinnoh, Johto, Kanto, Hoenn, Unova, Kalos, Alola, Galar) and is basically a Trainer legend whispered on the winds.

She doesn’t let it get to her head though. She’s always up for a Pokemon battle or just something fun to do. Most people find it hard to keep up with her though, with how crazy some of her ideas of fun are. Including training with her own Pokemon (you know how Drayden is said to wrestle with his Pokemon? Yeah, same thing. She has a bunch of scars from these methods, but she’s never stopped doing it!)

Gonna put what she’s doing in Scarlet under the cut

Clarissa had never been to school. She was basically homeschooled by her mom and the Pokemon research she did as a kid.

When Clarissa came back home from a Galar adventure, her mom sprung on her that she signed her up at Naranja Academy. Clarissa tried to argue and get her mom to cancel, but her mom said it wasn’t about the classes (Clarissa probably knows most of the curriculum already). What she really wanted was for her daughter to make friends.

(Clarissa has been going through a character arc throughout her long ass journey. Basically, at the end of Sinnoh, Something Terrible happened to a childhood friend of hers and she was running away from processing it throughout Johto and Kanto. It’s only at Hoenn that it finally hits her and she can start to process. Through Unova and Kalos, she tries to be more open to others; it only kinda works. It starts to really work in Alola and Galar. But no one really stuck to her as friends besides a few people. Which is where Paldea comes in.)

Clarissa agrees upon hearing that, and she hitches a ride to Paldea.

School life takes a lot of effort for Clarissa to get used to. She’s never really worked on a schedule before. Sure, she’s had to plan days around events before, and it’s not she doesn’t have her own internal schedule. But school life feels so rigid to her; she does Not Like It.

Luckily, her teachers are very kind and enthusiastic about their subjects. Her favorites are the language, art, and home ec teachers, but her overall favorite class is battle teaching. Least favorite class is history (she’s sus of the teacher). [Please don’t spoil what happens with the teachers in the story; I’ve only beaten three gyms]

Clarissa’s reputation has a interesting effect around the school. She’s basically swarmed any time she’s not in class with questions about her from the other students, but she’s also pretty lonely. People mostly want to hang out with her to get their five seconds of fame so to speak, and it makes her feel awful.

That’s not to say she hasn’t made any connections: she basically became a tutor and she helps out other students who are struggling in class. She’s a good study buddy.

Clarissa Gilmore - Gilmore Girls OC

~ General ~

Full Name: Clarissa Emily Gilmore

Nicknames: Clary (By most)

Birthdate: June 21st, 1985

Residence: Hartford, Connecticut | New York City, New York | Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

~ Physical Appearance ~

Hair Colour: Brown

Eye Colour: Blue

Skin Tone: Pale

Height: 5’7

Body Type: Ectomorph

Misc: she has freckles, high cheekbones, and a defined jawline

Faceclaim: Michelle Tractenberg

~ Background ~

Hometown: Hartford, Connecticut

As the youngest daughter of Emily and Richard Gilmore, Clarissa was raised with her sister looming over her. Her parents were always rather overbearing and protective over her. Clarissa was expected to fulfill many of their expectations for Lorelai. However, she was quite different from her sister.

~ Family ~

Mother: Emily Gilmore

Growing up, Emily placed many expectations on Clarissa. She was expected to fulfill the hole left by Lorelai’s unceremonious escape. However, Emily often encourages Clarissa’s interests and aspirations. Emily can be a bit strict to Clarissa, anxious not to let her end up like her sister.

Father: Richard Gilmore

Richard and Clarissa are very different people. This often shows in their near-opposite views on life. While Clarissa is much more prone to imagination and creativity, Richard prides himself on his realism and practicality. This causes arguments between them, particularly on the subject of Clarissa’s aspirations in the artistic world. Nonetheless, at the end of the day, Richard can normally be persuaded to see Clarissa’s vision and is proud of her regardless.

Sister: Lorelai Gilmore

Lorelai and Clarissa have a simultaneously united yet awkward relationship. With Lorelai often talking their parents down from their more deranged plans for herself and Clary. However, as Lorelai was largely not part of Clary’s life, their relationship is closer to distant relatives rather than sisters.

Niece: Lorelai “Rory” Gilmore

Rory and Clarissa’s relationship is often charged with resentment. To Clary, Rory is everything she isn’t. Booksmart, with respectable and realistic plans for her future, and without Clary’s rebellious streak. Clary was often subject to comparison by her parents to Rory and their relationship has suffered from her jealousy.

~ Schooling & Career ~

School: Chilton Preparatory Academy

Best Class: English Literature/Art

Worst Class: Biology

Clubs:

Minors: World Literature, Art History

Career: Artist

Following her graduation, Clary, anxious to leave New York after her breakup with Charles, received an offer to be an Artist-in-Residence in Philadelphia from a friend. She accepted immediately and moved there.

~ Personality & Traits ~

Personality: Since she was a child, Clarissa has always been a creative person. Ever curious, some of her fondest memories include visiting museums in Hartford with her parents. Clarissa is quite friendly and sweet. She enjoys learning about people and is an extrovert. A lover of all things artistic, Clarissa is never as happy as when she is in her room, painting or sketching with a good playlist on her stereo. Clarissa has a rather dry sense of humour, much like her sister.

~ Relationships ~

Best Friend:

Avonlea Carter

Avonlea and Clarissa have been best friends since they were in diapers. Avonlea, the star of the Drama and Music department, complimented Clarissa’s fine arts-based talents perfectly. The pair have never had a fight and lived together in New York until Clarissa moved to Philadelphia.

Friends:

Louise Grant

Madeline Lynn

Nola March

Julia Kenting

Love Interests:

Theodore “Teddy” Carter

Clary’s first love, Teddy Carter, was her best friend’s older brother. They had known each other since they were children and Clary had had feelings for him for years. Teddy asked Clary to the Chilton Dance and she obviously accepted. Clary initially assumed he asked her because she was his little sister’s friend and didn’t have a date but he tells her he has feelings for her. They dated for about a year until his graduation. He was going to university across the country.

Jack Seymour

Jack Seymour and Clary had known each other for years. A member of the Chilton basketball team, Jack had joined up his freshmen year because he thought Clary was pretty. He made a habit of flirting with Clary, which she dismissed as just teasing. One evening at a party, Jack and Clary kissed. Clary quickly came to the realization that she had feelings for Jack. She asked him out a few days later and he said yes. They dated until a few weeks into college, when Jack broke up with her.

Patrick Nguyen

Patrick Nguyen deserved a lot better than what Clary gave him. Fresh off her breakup with Jack, Clary met Patrick at a college bar. They hooked up and she gave him her number. For the next year, Clary and Patrick entered a casual relationship. One evening, Clary told Patrick she loved him. She was drunk, and regretted it immediately. But, Patrick responded in kind. Clary couldn’t find it in herself to tell him she didn’t mean it. They started dating. For 3 months, Clary couldn’t get up the courage to tell him. Until, one night, it just slipped out. “I don’t love you.” And that was that, they broke up.

Charles Wendler

Charles Wendler was Clary’s first devestating heartbreak. She met him in her Art History class. He was an exchange student from England completing his graduate program and, to Clary, completely fascinating. Charles strung her along for a while, sometimes seeming head-over-heels and other times completely uninterested. On Clary’s 22st birthday, Charles’s girlfriend came to his apartment to surprise him while they were in a… compromising position. She didn’t see Charles for a week after that and heard nothing from him. She learned from her art history professor that he had gone back to England.

Jess Mariano

Clarissa remains convinced her and Jess’s meeting was an act of destiny. She wasn’t planning on staying in Philadelphia beyond her six month contract. But, Clarissa came into Truncheon Books one day, and he was working. She recognized him and they started talking. They met for coffee, as she didn’t really know anyone in Philly. They became fast friends, and as her contracted period came to a close, their feelings for each other became more apparent. They both knew about their mutual feelings but refused to confront them. When Clary told him she would be leaving in a few days, Jess was angry. They argued and she stormed out. They didn’t speak until the day of her flight out. Jess came to her apartment and she kissed him spontaneously. She bailed on her flight and ended up staying in Philadelphia with Jess.

Rivals:

Rory Gilmore

~ Misc & Notes ~

She loves Billy Joel with her entire heart.

Her favourite thing to paint is portraits, but she doesn’t do them very often because they’re very time-consuming and it’s hard to find models.

She and her dad used to go golfing every Sunday and she got to be really good at it. She still is.

She spent the summer between her graduation and first year of university in italy, painting.

Went on one hiking trip in 8th grade and swore on her life she would never do it again. She got her period for the first time on the trip and had to use toilet paper as a pad for the entire trip.

Whenever she is upset or stressed she goes to the Museum of Art and looks at all the paintings.

Sucks at sculpture, she’s just never been able to do it.
