Eika Miki

## History

Eika was born on Ula'Ula island in the Alola region, raised in Malie city, where her family ran a local fashion store. Miki Fashion is quite popular with tourists and locals alike, for the Johto aesthetic -- something quite popular in Malie, given the local history of being founded by Johto immigrants. As an only child to a family run fashion business, Eika grew up modeling children's clothes for the shop.

However, Eika grew up with a dream of being a Pokemon trainer, often watching foreign videos of League battles with excitement -- Something that, as she got older, her pet rockruff excitedly joined her in. Her grandfather, who lives with the family, always encouraged her, even teaching her traditional techniques to make Pokeballs out of apricorns.

After turning 18, Eika heard about the Kairos region, and took an interest in participating in the new league. With the help of her grandfather, she convinced her parents to let her go and participate in the Kairos League.
