Well I finally figured out a partner for Emily and she will be brought in with the next chapter.
Her name is Lillia Harlow. She is a part of a group that monitors all things relating to Infinity Energy to prevent it's abuse, said group was made in the wake of AZ's madness 3000 years ago. Said group is made up of people who have fully awoken to their connection to Infinity Energy-- unlike others that have it but remain ignorant to it like various abnormally exceptional Trainers, either in their own physical rights like Maylene and such or how their bond with their Pokemon empowers their team more than others, like Red-- otherwise known as Scions. Off-shoots of humanity. Elf-like ears is the most common, initial mutation of Scions. Emily is considered something BEYOND a mere Scion with a unique terminology defined by said group but I won't spoil any specifics like that yet beyond just the scale in which she taps into her connection to Infinity Energy and how much more extensively mutated she is compared to Scions who only have the ears.
Lillia is a Scion standing at 4'3" and 14 years old- the newest recruit (short Asian mom genes is why she is still so short and small)- who was sent to recon the activity in Kalos but wasn't really getting any leads since she does things a very old fashioned way by slowly forming in person connections and word of mouth just like in here home region of rural Johto. Arai of course with her more modern methods was able to simply brute force her way into information and set Emily on the right path.
Over the course of events in Chapter 3, Emily and Lillia end up intertwined in the story going forward and the two's relationship will be a vehicle to explore the other half of the duality Emily has-- the more "human" side of herself that paradoxically exists side by side with her otherwise alien warrior self-- in the story going forward.
I'm going to bed, see you goons later.
