Matrimori have two ways of forming. Either when a Souvemari evolves, or if a woman dies on her wedding day, similar to Yamask. If formed the latter way, Matrimori will remember everything about her wedding day. Who she was going to marry, her bridesmaids, her guests, who she purposefully didn't invite, the location, even the flavor of the wedding cake. Because of this, Matrimori can be a very vengeful Pokemon, despite its kind, albeit quiet disposition. Matrimori can often be found hiding in the shadows at weddings, making sure nothing tragic happens. If the wedding goes wrong, or the bride is harmed in any way, Matrimori will wreak havoc. If a Matrimori sees the person she was going to marry, she'll stay out of their sight, in order to not upset them. If a Matrimori was simply formed from a Souvemari evolving, Matrimori will be a very kind, loving Pokemon, innocently floating about and spreading flower petals wherever she goes. Often, Matrimori formed from a bride's death will refuse to take on another partner as a Pokemon, but Matrimori that evolved are eager to dote on their potential new families. Matrimori get along very well with humans, but married or engaged women should be careful about Matrimori getting clingy and overprotective. In extraordinarily rare cases, a pair of Matrimori will live together monogamously, and have some of the most functional relationships seen in any Pokemon. It's speculated that these pairs are two women who were about to get married to each other, but died during their wedding, and continued their relationship in their afterlife. Matrimori's ribbons contain cursed power, and used to command Ghost-type moves. The flowers are used for moves such as Petal Dance, where the bouquet Matrimori is holding will spontaneously drop all of its petals to be used as an attack. Matrimori's energy seems to keep these flowers alive without water, as the flowers instantly grow their petals back. The flower crown seems to remain untouched no matter what. Souvemari is a naive Pokemon that wants to make others happy, even if not understanding boundaries. She'll scatter flower petals from the bouquet she holds, and then manipulate the petals around in pretty patterns. Souvemari looks up to other female Pokemon and imprints onto them very easily, especially humanoid Pokemon such as Gardevoir and Gothitelle. They grow out of this upon evolution. Souvemari need support and reassurance to properly mature, and will unwittingly put themselves in danger trying to get it. Trainers have to be careful that Souvemari doesn't wander off into Arceus knows where, and also give Souvemari a lot of their attention. Souvemari is usually satisfied watching her trainer do monotonous, boring activities, such as typing on a computer or doing chores, just as long as Souvemari gets to be with her trainer.

Flarink, like all starter Pokemon, has a natural ability to form bonds with humans. However, Flarink has a more humorous reason for liking humans. It likes the body heat people give off. For this same reason, Flarink gets along best with other Fire-type Pokemon, and dislikes Ice-type Pokemon. When Flarink knows a heat source is nearby, or it's hot outside, Flarink will skitter around happily on the ground. Flarink keeps its hind legs in the air out of habit and is able to walk with only its forelegs. It lowers its legs to run at high speeds for such a small, low to the ground creature, at speeds of around 25 mph (40 kmh). Flarink's lava is unable to harden, as it needs the extra heat to give it energy and keep it moving. The lava cooling isn't deadly, it just makes Flarink sleepy. Blazerpent's hind legs get much smaller, and it grows claws made out of lava. It grows feathers, and a hardened section of lava rock that frames its new wings. These wings are very small, and Blazerpent can't fly for too long. Blazerpent can harden the rest of its wings whenever it sleeps, but not the rest of the lava on its body. It's playful and enjoys company, much to the dismay of any Pokemon or human unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of one of Blazerpent's pranks that usually involves lava or fire. The feathers on Blazerpent's body have ignited upon evolution, and are a permanent source of fuel to expel excess heat. Coalquetz is nicknamed the Sunset Serpent for its tendency to fly at its highest speeds during the dawn or evening, rushing out to enjoy the day, or rushing back to its den for rest, respectively. Its maximum speed is 240 mph (386 kmh) when it dives, and its regular flight is at 75 mph (120 kmh). Its colors also resemble the pink evening sky. Coalquetz' evolution awoke untapped power inside of it, invoking its new Fairy type. Coalquetz' fairy typing is ingrained into its mischievous yet kind personality. It still plays childish pranks like its pre-evolution, though it now understands that lava tends to hurt. It understands, and it does not care. Coalquetz is very vocal for a snake Pokemon, rubbing its scales together, rattling the fiery club on its tail, and hissing. These noises aren't always for intimidation. Unlike Ekans, the rattle is to get attention, and then point. It simply rubs its scales together as something similar to laughter, and hissing is used for regular intimidation reasons. Coalquetz still has a habit of scaring its friends with noises meant for positivity, much to its annoyance. Coalquetz flapping its wings is by Coalquetz spontaneously melting and hardening the rock framing its wings. Despite how playful Coalquetz is, it has a very fierce disposition when in battle, or trying to scare off an opponent. When scared, flapping its wings to spread lava is just a facade even though it wouldn't care if its assailant was hurt, but when in a genuine fight this is an actual attack and part of how it uses Lava Plume. Its lava is used for more than just Fire-type moves. The light emitted from them is how it uses Fairy-type moves and Power Gem. Razor Wind is from Coalquetz flapping its wings, which makes Razor Wind effectively similar to Heat Wave. Coalquetz has a habit of trying to grab its trainer's arm to drag them around to a location. Trainers should not let it do this, for obvious reasons. The lava is hot enough to cause 4th degree burns instantly. Coalquetz' lava is at relatively low temperatures compared to other Fire-type Pokemon's flames, at 2200° F (1250° C), compared to a Flareon's 3000° F flames, but the danger should not be understated.
