The magical energy that radiates from Charlotte keeps her friends safe from toxins.

Charlotte was born a Kantonian Ponyta and assigned male at birth. She was the fourth of five children, her slightly older twin sister Rebecca being the only of her siblings born female.

In their early years Charlotte solidified herself as the most gentle of the family. Her siblings had rather destructive tendencies, fighting amongst themselves and burning the land around them for fun. Meanwhile she primarily kept to herself, going off on her own to sit with nature in silence. She developed an interest in plant life and gardening, taking books out with her to the nearby pond and keeping her own secret garden. It made her happy to see flowers growing after days of care and patience. Unfortunately sometimes her siblings would find her and torch the plant life she surrounded herself with, laughing at her for how boring she was and encouraging her to join them in their fun.

Charlotte and Rebecca being twins and yet so very different was a hot topic growing up. Whenever possible their siblings would joke about how there was obviously a mix up and they swapped bodies in the womb. Rebecca resented Charlotte because she felt out of place as the only female child in the family and no matter how she tried to be just like their brothers she was always compared to Charlotte, the outcast. Charlotte was patient with her in turn as she empathized with her struggle, but this dynamic proved stressful on their relationship in years to come.

After years of pestering from her siblings Charlotte began to engage with them more, going out on their morning runs across the countryside with flames hot on their heels. While still the gentlest of the bunch she made an effort to take part in their hobbies, trying to blend in to avoid criticism. Being seen as a gentle little boy had resulted in teasing, yes, but she was afraid of the level or ridicule she may experience as a gentle young man. So she did her best to appear normal by their standards. Still, running proved to be a great way to relieve stress and she was able to find some admiration from her siblings due to her speed.

During her teen years her eldest brother started a Bounty Hunter team, which all of her siblings were eager to be a part of. She joined as well, naturally, but found the new job unfulfilling. Hunting down criminals and bringing them to justice did not resonate with her as it did her more violent siblings.

On missions she would often focus on victims instead, doing what she could to tend to their wounds and ensure they were emotionally stable. She had a gift for calming others and settling their nerves, possibly because of how in tune she was with the feelings of those around her. Her siblings did not intrude in these practices, finding it useful for Charlotte to handle such matters that did not interest them.

It was around this time she took an interest in fate and fortune telling. She felt lost, as though something was missing. Looking to the stars for guidance or tea leaves for advice gave her hope for a better tomorrow and something concrete she could cling to. She also began to read more, enjoying the chance to life another life through fictional characters. She particularly enjoyed romance novels for their focus on people coming together through love. She longed to find such a connection herself.

One day while on a mission Charlotte encountered a woman that had been badly injured and needed assistance being escorted to a Blissey House. Charlotte volunteered of course, and as they exited the dungeon and shifted back into their gijinka forms it became obvious that this woman was not female from birth.

At first Charlotte did not respond well. Part of her was angry at this woman--this man--who thought he could pretend to be someone else, instinctually lashing out at this new and frightening possibility that she did not understand. But still the gears in her head were beginning to turn and she found herself becoming more and more frustrated that she could have been living the same life as this person for years if only she had known it was an option.

She dropped this person off at a Blissey House and hastily made her retreat, too overwhelmed to do much of anything else. She told her siblings what had happened, speaking of the woman in a derogatory fashion to solidify her as someone 'other', to ensure that Charlotte herself was not like that. Her siblings laughed, joking about how Charlotte better not get too close or she may catch this illness she had.

Charlotte stewed over the encounter for days, wondering desperately what became of this person. Eventually she returned to the Blissey House and inquired about the patient she had dropped off. The Blisseys were familiar enough with Charlotte that they generally had little issue allowing her to visit with patients, but this time they were more apprehensive than usual. When Charlotte made it clear she was aware this patient was 'different' the Blisseys explained to Charlotte how sensitive this situation was and how many pokemon might not respond well if word were to get out. As medical professionals who helped a wide variety of pokemon, the Blisseys at this facility were familiar with those who did not identify as the gender assigned to them at birth, and they took the time to explain the concept to Charlotte in more detail.

This information shook Charlotte because of how much it resonated with her. In the following months she started spending more and more time with at the Blissey House, asking questions and seeking advice. She learned that while some procedures existed to help those who felt out of place in their own body, such research was only just beginning and options were limited. However some pokemon were able to find comfort in potions, though the results were questionable.

Charlotte shared this new information with her family, too enthralled by the possibility to keep it to herself. For the most part her excitement was dismissed and some family members found her behavior suspicious. She saved up for a Regional Potion to become more fairy like in nature and was thrilled with the results. At this point her parents expressed their disapproval, but after years of hiding who she was refused to any longer. Her parents forbid her from returning home and she sought refuge with the Blisseys. Through them she began studying medicine, not only to help others with day-to-day illnesses and injuries but also in the hopes of advancing the options available to people like herself. 

Because Charlotte continued to work in town she ran in to her family more often than she would like. They continued to ridicule her in various ways. One of her brothers was tolerant of her choice though he did not understand and said brother quickly became her new favorite. Rebecca was the most furious of all, feeling as though Charlotte had thrown away what she herself wanted most. Charlotte attempted to share what she had learned with Rebecca, but her sister would not listen. She already struggled as an outcast in their family and refused to become more so by following in Charlotte's footsteps. 

Charlotte met Gene when he was left at the Blissey house unconscious after being knocked out in the local Dojo. Having treated a large variety of pokemon previously she was able to identify him as a reborn ghost easily enough. While he was being treated he told her of his rescue team. She was eager to help a wider range of pokemon than just those in her small hometown and also get away from her family. After making the necessary arrangements she set off to join them.
