So if we're not going to have someone other than Tess as electric E4, can we at least discuss her character so she's not just 'girl who plays pinball'/'girl who runs PC database'?
It seems kind of booring I guess, but I always pictured her as bookish, kind of stuckup/serious, maybe she spends too much time on her computer or with her pokemon so she isn't very talkative with people. Meanwhile she's a very quick thinker, an efficient battler, willing to make tough calls and switch out her pokemon when she sees an opening for gaining the advantage. She designs battle simulations to test the playability of her team. Her strategy would be preperation oriented, perfectly calculated IV/EV's, meticulously selected movepools to minimize weaknesses, and hold items that perfectly compliment her pokemon's strategies.
