Appearance

Her current appearance is one common to Kantonian Ponyta the world over, despite her birthplace being in Sinnoh

Personality/Bio

Vas is a cheerfully optimistic Pokemon, who is as fast with her words as she is with her hooves. When her herd on Route 214 were menaced by a roving pack of Geodude and Graveler, she called on the aid of the nearest human Trainer she could find, which happened to be Mitchell. After sending the Geodude and Graveler packing with a combination of force and trickery, she got her family’s blessing to follow Mitchell as one of his caught Pokemon.
