NPC Ansy

Drawing BW2 Ansy in that last comic with a raincoat like standard Parasol Ladies made me do it lol. Definitely nostalgic, looking up BW2 battle screenshots for this. ^_^

Parasol Lady is a trainer class who specializes in weather teams, but usually rain. There are certain moves, abilities, & types that have an advantage depending on the weather, like Weather Ball (a normally Normal move that gets a power boost & type change depending on if it’s raining, sunny, or snowing / hailing). Castform is generally their signature Pokemon, along with any with abilities like Swift Swim, Rain Dish, Hydration, or Drizzle. 🌧️💧

You probably would encounter her later on in the game (whenever Altaria evolves, around 35), but beat her fairly easily lol. Her default dialogue would be about the weather, her dear Pokémon, or maybe cloud cookies. ☁️ 

PS: I didn’t know you can catch Castform in BDSP (very rare Trophy Garden encounter), & I can’t not have Sora on the team if she’s available sooooo I did some rearranging on Ansy’s DxP team lol. I’m honestly planning on just redoing these profiles eventually (maybe after Chapter 1), but yeah, just so you guys know lol, Ansy has her raindrop baby. 🥲🩵
