Name: Quinn Simmons
Hometown: Spikemuth (Galar)
Specialist Type: N/A
The popular student of the Goldenbeak Academy, it might surprise some that Quinn joined the Academy with very little experience in Pokémon battling, but look at her now! Already having claimed her first gym badge from the Akkadios Pokémon League, she's also been eyeing up Pokémon Contests, finding her groove now that she's graduated.
When Quinn first came to Whitewood, she didn't have a Pokémon of her own, so the school gifted her a Snivy to begin her journey. Very prideful, since evolving into a Servine it has begun to think that Pokémon battles are beneath her... though showing off her verdant radiance in a Pokémon Contest would be acceptable. As for her first catch, Quinn's Acidrip is the opposite, an eager battler, if a little reckless. However, when she's not fighting, Acidrip can be found simply scrolling through Quinn's phone.
Upon graduating, Quinn would be reunited with a very hungry Aron from her hometown of Spikemuth, a notorious menace chewing through metal bins lighting poles to satiate its hunger. Perched upon Quinn's head, while a strong battler, this little Aron is on the lookout for more metal to munch. The latest addition to Quinn's team, a very punkish Tribuate. As a Moistate, it was caught and released by several trainers due to their refusal to listen to orders in battle. However, clearly Quinn has been able to reach this Pokémon in a way others haven't - after all, none of Tribuate's other trainers got it to evolve, did they?
Having made quite a few friends at the Goldenbeak Academy, Quinn was quick to enlist them into a celebration - watching the Pokémon World Tournament. She's especially taken a shine to Paige Shaw and Daiya Hi, having brough them with her as she travels around collecting gym badges in the meantime. As far as Quinn's concerned, she's giving them valuable real world experience that the Academy would never teach them, even if said approach does put them in the crosshairs of annoyed hordes of Pokémon.
