Ref sheets done by spcrossing (@sp-art-gallery), here's a new OC I've recently made: Kylee Howard, a Pokemon Trainer...who is also a Braixen?! ...and originally human?!?!
A jolly, adventurous woman from Castelia City in Unova, she is a volunteer at the Poke-Form Laboratory somewhere in the world, a closed beta project on human-Pokemon transformation that has been years (in-universe) in the making!
Often seen transformed into a Pokemon, she's usually a Braixen, but likes to experiment with other Pokemon forms and shapes! Offensively, she's more limited than the average Pokemon, but can still pull off offensively weak and defensive moves, usually for utility purposes. She still acts as a Trainer despite being a Pokemon herself, having the convenience of not being prone to Poke Balls (not that she wouldn't be able to "de-register" herself after) and still being able to talk the same language as other humans; ironically, she still can't speak or understand Pokemon speech. She does go back to human form on rare occasion, though; she doesn't mind it, but being a Pokemon is more fun! She does turn some eyes, but given how Pokemon society has already seen a ton of oddities, a talking Braixen being a Pokemon Trainer - even a transformed one, but also especially one from a project that's been in the news for years - is not something a lot of people feel like side-eyeing.
Oh, and she loves having a tail. A lot.
Also, if you see a Joltik on her, that's Gamma (they/them), one of Kylee's Pokemon team party members! They love to ride around on Kylee's new tail and eat up the static electricity her fur gathers up.
