Violet

Violet is the starter Pokémon of Ren Ketchum, and is currently the Lead in his team.

History
Violet debuted in 001: Homecoming, where it's revealed that she was specially bred to be Ren’s first Pokémon. The two had a mutual disinterest towards each other, with Violet only coming out of her Poké Ball for meals. However, after they travelled to Vermilion City from Hoenn, she escaped from her ball to find food as Ren had forgotten to feed her.

Appearance
Violet is very small for her species, officially classified as Tiny. She has violet eyes

Battling style and known moves
Violet is a naturally gifted and intuitive battler. She has the ability to learn moves almost instantly upon seeing them in use, as shown in 002: Cinna-barred', when she immediately uses Light Screen directly after Alazakam used one to deflect an attack. She's able to read her opponents easily and adjust accordingly. However, her talent for battles can lead to arrogance and overconfidence. In Violet's earlier matches, this trait caused her to ignore Ren's instructions, but this improved over time as their bond deepened. She is also nicknamed “Violent” by Ren for her tenacity in battle.
