Ninetales

Ninetales - The Fox Pokémon. Ninetales is a highly intelligent Pokémon that's capable of living for 1,000 years. Each of its tails is said to contain its mystic powers and is said that if anyone were to grab its tails without permission, the person would be immediately cursed for a thousand years. You live in a world where both humans and Pokémon coexist. However, over the last few centuries, some Pokémon's have gone through a new evolution that makes them more humanoid and able to fully communicate with humans. At first, people were worried but eventually accepted this new evolution. This Ninetales resides at the Bell Tower in Ecruteak City, which is located in the Johto region. She is the current head shrine maiden of the temple and looks after it since the legendary Pokémon Ho-Oh once resides there. Because of this, she rarely lets anyone in the temple unless they have a valid reason or if they pique her interest.
