**Emma Pearlshine** (Japanese: **海原愛珠海** *Unabara Amame*) is one of the main characters of *Crystal Magic*. She is a kind and caring 14 year-old girl from Petalberg, Hoenn.

## Bio

### Appearance

Emma has green eyes, freckles, and curly chest-length dark pink hair, tied in a loose ponytail. Her Harmony Mark is a pale pink seashell with a pearl in the middle. After she gets Stage 3, her Harmony Mark gains two extra pearls in the middle and the shell becomes a slightly brighter shade of pink while also gaining two water drops above and below the pearls, and her hair is sparkly, sligthly longer, and gains a fade of hot pink. As a civilian...

* Her attire from seasons 3-5 consists of a light rose pink shirt, a coral-colored skirt, black tights, and pink heels. This is her outfit in Kanto, Jotho and Hoenn.
* In seasons 6 and 10, she wears a pale pink windbreaker jacket over a white dress, and light sea green flats with reddish-pink socks. This is her outfit in Sinnoh and Galar.
* In season 7, she wears a light gray t-shirt combined with bubblegum pink jean shorts, white and hot pink sneakers, and dark purple tube socks. This is her first outfit in Unova.
* As seen in season 8, she has a warm rose pink top with elbow-length sleeves and a ribbon on the chest, a navy blue pleated skirt, and black Mary Janes with white frilly socks. This is her outfit in Kalos.
* As seen in season 9, her outfit consists of a ruffled, cropped pink tank top (approximately the color of Sugar's skin in other series), loose light lavender palazzo pants with a hot pink stripe going down the side of each leg, and tan flip-flops. This is her outfit in Alola.
* Her attire in season 11 consists of a hot pink hooded sweater with pale pink pom-pom pulleys, pale blue sweatpants, fluffy black and purple winter boots, and a light pink scarf. This is her second outfit in Unova, and it fits the cold weather perfectly.
* She is, in season 12, wearing a very pale pink dress with pointy sleeves and a pleated skirt, as well as blue Vans shoes.
* As an adult in the series finale, her outfit consists of a rose pink ruffled tank top dress, purple knee-length tights underneath, and pale pink heels with pale seafoam green socks.

In her magical warrior form, her hair becomes hot pink and grows to thigh-length, partially tied in two thick pigtails. Her eyes also turn purple. She has a light pink, strapless top with a paler pink miniskirt and ice blue tights with pink stripes and coral-colored heels attached to her tights. She has white fingerless gloves with hot pink buttons and has a white pearl circlet headband (which has her Harmony Gem, shaped like a small sphere) and pearl earrings. Her Elemaximum Gauge is on her belly while she has white angel wings on her back.

### Personality

Emma is very kind, friendly, gentle, and caring, and is quite upbeat and cheerful (sometimes being *very* energetic), rarely being seen sad. She cares very deeply about her friends and will try to cheer them up any way she can. She is also quite feminine and a girly-girl and loves fashion and cosmetics, often giving fashion/makeup advice. Emma also loves the sea and sea life, and she dreams of being a marine biologist one day who studies marine Pokémon. However, she often lacks courage, is prone to running away from problems or things that scare her instead of dealing with them, and often refuses to admit her feelings when she is feeling down.

### Relationships

* **Will Brennan**: While the two get along most of the time and are (platonic) friends, they do sometimes butt heads over their opposite Elemental types.
* **Emily Cooper**: Another one of her good friends who she gets along quite well with, even though they also occasionally don't get along. They quickly become best friends over the course of the series, though at one point, both their personality flaws cause them to get into a huge fight that nearly causes them to ditch each other and both to witch out and try to kill each other as witches.
* **Madison**: Her partner Pokémon (a Mudkip) who she cares about a lot, and she usually rides on her shoulder.

### Etymology

* Her Japanese surname **Unabara** means "sea meadow" while the kanji for her Japanese name **Amame** mean "love," "pearl," and "sea."

## Items

* **Power Necklace**
* **Harmony Gem (is stored in Harmony Warrior System app when unused)**

## Magical Abilities

As a magical warrior, Emma possesses enhanced physical abilities such as speed, strength, agility, invulnerability to physical damage, and the ability to fly. She can also breathe underwater when transformed without needing to use the Water Elemental Bottle.

Emma possesses the power to manipulate water. She can fire streams, blasts, sprays, and bubbles of water to attack with, as well as freely manipulate the moisture in the air to create thick mist that makes it hard to see or cause it to start raining. She can freely control the intensity of the rain she summons.

Emma also has the power to manipulate seashells and pearls. She is able to use shells for offense and defense, being able to make them sharp or as disposable shields, and can even create gigantic clamshells to clamp or squeeze enemies. Emma can also create tiny, flying seashells (resembling the flying scallops from *SpongeBob SquarePants*) that swarm and overwhelm the enemy and bite at them. Untransformed, she can also create beautiful seashells and pearls that can be used as jewelry or decorations. She can shoot pearls as bullets or use bigger versions of them like cannonballs to crush enemies. Her magic aura is warm light pink in color.

## Magical Warrior

Emma is a Water/Rock Elemental who represents the Element of Kindness. Her theme color is pink, and her weapons are a sword, a beaded pearl chain, and a seashell-shaped shield for defense.

### Attacks

* **Tropical Cyclone Spray**: Emma's main purification finisher.
* **Pearl Shower**: One of her damaging sub-attacks.
* **Seashell Clamp**: One of her damaging sub-attacks.

## Pokémon

* Mudkip (Madison; partner Pokémon)
* Clamperl -> Gorebyss (nicknamed Gloria)
* Budew -> Roselia -> Roserade (Lily)

## Trivia

* Her lack of courage and general refusal to face problems rather than avoiding them made her initially unable to make a contract, as she is too fearful to even face the villains until she finally musters up the courage to prevent the monster from harming any innocent civilians and the villains (or in the case of her first transformation, the Vertex) from winning.
	+ The way she first transforms is very similar to the canon Yuuki Yuuna first transforming in *Yuuki Yuuna is a Hero*.
* Her magical warrior outfit was partly inspired by Sirenix in *Winx Club*.
* Emma's Pokémon all have human names.
* Her witch form, Geoduck, was altered from its initial design due to concerns of it potentially looking too inappropriate, so the siphon sticking out of the shell was changed to be longer, thinner, and more cylinderical like a drinking straw or a hollow pasta noodle.
* She was planned to be from Alola, but she was changed to be from Hoenn instead due to a lot of Water Elementals in other series being from Alola.
* Emma and Emily quickly become best friends and "heterosexual life-parthers."
* Geoduck and Emily's witch form are one of the rare times that two witches are directly in conflict and attempt to fight each other, which stems from a fight (which both are at fault for) that causes them to witch out.
* Emma's Japanese name was originally planned to be "Umika" (meaning "sea flower").
* Her introduction speech is similar to Sailor Moon's. However, she replaces "in the name of the Moon, I'll punish you!" with "In the name of the sea, you're going down!"
