Just to bump the thread, but the trainer gal I have in this setting is an Unovian named Toplina Vodi, whose concept is mostly a nod to two different Pokémon characters featured in separate Pokémon LPs.
Her concept is built around a character who only knew of Pokémon on a second hand level - She went to school to learn about general knowledge of the world, as well as how to raise Pokémon, but outside her pet Shinx, she never captured any new Pokémon. It took her pet actually running away from their home town of Lacunosa, for her to begin her own personal Pokémon journey, as Toto insisted on chasing after a Drifloon, and once human and pet reunited, they were chased around by a Hydreigon that seemed strangely insistent on fighting against the young adult, despite her poor aptitude as a trainer.
