KURMA (TORTERRA)
Personality
Kurma is the true definition of a leader. Strong, intellegent, patient, and level headed. He is always ready to help, whenever and wherever he is needed. He takes his position as the "leader" of his team very seriously. He cares very deeply for each and every one of his teammates, and will not accept defeat without a fight. He has quite a bit of life experience, which he uses to teach new teammates to be fearless, kind, and strong. He also often acts as the mediator if a conflict arises. He will patiently listen to anyone who needs to let out their toughts, and gladly offer comfort or advice. He often has trouble sleeping, as does his trainer, Myles. After tucking in his younger teammates Sometimes the two of them stargaze, and let a comfortable silence fall between them until they both doze off.
Backstory
Kurma was chosen by Myles' as his starter pokemon. At first, Kurma was very hesitant about leaving the proffesor's lab. He was scared of change, and preffered (and thrived) in the stability of a set schedule. He was stubborn at first, and wondered what was out there really worth seeing....and why Myles was so willing to accomadate for him. After all, they barely knew each other. Trusting another so quickly surely would lead to being hurt. plus, its Myles's journey, not his...right? for a while, he preffered to stay in his ball, and to be completely left alone. He was upset and anxious about being out in the open instead of the comfort of the lab. He did appreciate that Myles respected him and his boundaries, though.
The definite turning point of his relationship with Myles was when he was willing to delay his own evolution. By the time it came around, he was still scared and felt he wasn't ready for such an important change just yet. It didn't take long after that for him to realize that he was extremely lucky to have such an understanding trainer, and they grew very close very quickly. As time passed, he started to enjoy the company of Myles and Kilo, and soon the others that joined them. He began to really trust Myles. After all, without Myles, he wouldn't have been able to open up to change, and realize that sometimes, change is not only necessary, but good. He also wouldn't have been able to see what the world really has to offer... if youre willing to leave your comfort zone. And for that, he is eternally grateful.Giga Drain

Kilo
At first, Kurma was quite intimated by Kilo. Fresh out of the professor's lab, he was afraid of meeting new people and expieriencing new things. Kilo was a bit sad about the level of isolation kurma initially wanted, but was very understanding. Kurma was very thankful for this. It didn't take long for his curiousity to shine through, and start talking to him. He admired the confidence of his teammate. Now, The two of them are very close friends. They are both quite mature, and while they have a few The mutual respect they have is practically unrivaled. He also quite enjoys battling at Kilo's side.
Mae
Mae and Kurma are polar opposites. When they first met, He wasn't very fond of her, and they would sometimes argue. However, as they learned more about each other, They both became able to communicate in a healthy way, and warmed up to each other. It took time, but they now call each other friends, and Kurma can even respect the way she laughs in the face of danger, and will be there to catch her should she fall. He'd rather not admit that he does quite enjoy her company, but it is true. Both will actively tease each other, as it is their way of bonding.
Fenrir
Kurma loves Fenrir, though he often has trouble keeping up with the pure amount of energy that he has. he appreciates Fenrirs positive energy, as it often acts as a morale booseter for the whole team. He likes how helpful fenrir is, but is hesitant to let him take on too much responsibility at once, not only because he knows that he can easily crack under pressure of too much at once, but he can be a bit clumsy at times. After all, he's still young, and he doesn't mind taking care of him.
Kalloni
Kurma sees very high potential in Kalloni. He knows that Kalloni is fragile, and he presumes that something happened to him before joining the team, but he doesn't want to ask him, as he assumes that because he hasn't shared, he'd prefer not to talk about it, and he isnt ready to be that vunerable with him. He sees his younger self in Kalloni, and hopes that with time he'll open up more. Aside from that, he is very impressed at his ability to battle, and is very glad that he has prism as a friend.
Prism
Prism is probably the only pokemon that Kurma finds intimidating. Not because he's scared of her, he knows that Prism would never hurt any of her teammates, but he's taken aback by the sheer amount of strength that she possesses. She is an incredibly strong battler, and he firmly believes she is stronger than him in that area. He doesn't speak to her as much as he'd like, but he knows that conversations aren't really her strong suit.
