Gym Leader (well One Is A Champ Now) Kiddos!

Gym Leader (well one is a champ now) kiddos!

I know it's summer, but I really like these two!

❀Iris Headcanons❀

• Drayden is Iris's adopted father, but she calls him Grandpa because he's kinda old lol

• Her outfit was based off of a Tennyo! (Japanese heavenly Maiden)

• When Drayden adopted her, he gave her the name Iris. ("Shaga" being his Japanese name it would make sense)

• Ever since she met Cynthia, Iris pushed through further to become Unova's Champion.

• She views Cynthia like an older sister.

• Iris's ethnicity is South Asian (Indian) 👀

• Before Drayden, Iris grew up in Blackthorn City, she doesn't really have parents but the people around look after her.

• She hides pokemon (if they're tiny enough!) in her hair, and sometimes her pokeballs. Her pokemon on the other hand will hide berries in her hair.

• The hardest pokemon she had to train was Hydreigon due to neglect from it's previous trainer.

• Iris got her Lapras by saving her from Pokemon Hunters. (Lapras are really rare in the Unova Region, and elsewhere too.)

• After becoming Champion, Drayden saw how competent she was and started getting her invested in politics so she could take over as the Spartan Mayor.

• Although Drayden's wealthy, he's been teaching Iris to be frugal about money.

• She's interested in Unovan mythology and some interest in Sinnoh mythology sparked for her when she met Cynthia.

• Iris has a bad habit of trying to imitate adults. She wants to act like one, but doesn't know how.

☆ (Probably knows Red and Blue well given that all three of them became champions at a young age! Prodigies y'know what I mean)

Also sneak peak of Mayor Iris 👀
