Basic Summary: Fire Fly village is a sleepy down with a pokemon center, and a few buildings surrounding the main Road out of Ashy Forest. The people here are loggers with a smattering of craftsmen who try to compete with Kuriblitz Peak's glass making industry. The rest of the inhabitants work for the school situated at the edge of town.
The Gyms:
Firefly Village Gym
Leader: Becca
Age: 28 (Birthday: November 8th)
Appearance: Becca is fairly short, with dark hair and green eyes under her unibrow. She usually wears a blue gray rain jacket, and tight leggings. If she isn't carrying her large black bag filled with her various cameras and equipment something must be wrong. She is fit thanks to years of hiking and training, but her skin is pale and freckled, and she slathers on sun screen for fear of burning.
Home Town: Firefly Village
Gym Type: Bug
Gym Layout: Becca's gym has the same ashy forest and rocky surroundings that can be found outside. The trees and boulders provide excellent protection for her fast bug types, and the terrain is extremely heat resistant, making fire type moves not as effective as they would be normally.
Attack Style: Becca likes to put her pokemon's speed to her advantage, having them attack fast, and then retreat to safety behind the boulders or trees in her arena.
Pokemon (you may choose to fight any 2 of these)
Reaper - Scizor
Gender: Male
Level: 25
Moves: Metal Claw, Fury Cutter, Quick Attack, Agility
Ability: Swarm
Panzer - Ariados
Gender: Male
Level: 28
Moves: Shadow Sneak, Sucker Punch, Bug Bite, Scary Face
Ability: Swarm
Singer - Kricketune
Gender: Male
Level: 26
Moves: Slash, Fury Cutter, Sing, Leech Life
Ability: Swarm
Sleeper - Shedinja
Gender: Female
Level: 27
Moves: Leech Life, Fury Swipes, Sand Attack, Scratch
Ability: Wonder Guard
Personality: Becca is a morning person, often getting up before dawn to crawl through bushes and briars, all in the name of catching the dewdrops on a spinarak's web as the light first hits on film. She is dedicated and determined, splitting her time between training and photography. Unlike many younger photographers, she spends her energy on discovering the beauties of nature, rather than photographing pokemon.
She was voted in as gym leader for Firefly Village after her Panzer kept a young pyrokinetic from setting the village alight. Since then She has turned her energy to keeping the gym stable, and keeping the students at the Psychic school from haring the village. Becca likes most of the students, and helps them as she is able, but dislikes the headmaster's over confidence in his abilities.

Firefly Psychic Academy
Headmaster: Finor
Age: 30 (Birthday: September 14th)
Appearance: Finor is tall and usually grinning. He tends to wear black, and other dark colors of sweatshirts, with a deep purple bandanna to keep his dyed red hair out of his eyes (he will never let it get cut to a shorter length, since girls think it looks good, just at his chin). Laughing and confident he always has a pleasant open expression. Thanks to his rather zealous attitude about his looks, he keeps fit and active, making great use of the school's gym, and hiking around the mountain.
Home Town: Xyno Town (which explains his interest in fashion)
Favored Type: Psychic
Gym Layout: Finor will challenge prospective trainers to battle any chance he can get, so the gym surroundings will change. However, there is a battle salle at the school if you managed to hunt him up there.
The building is long and the arena is pitch dark. Puffs of steam gush from the wooden floor if too much weight is put on it, as right bellow the salle is the school's sauna. In fact, the floor boards are delicately balanced, so any movement on them might dump your pokemon into scalding water. It is a great way to teach psychic types to master levitation, but it can cause quite a bit of damage if you weren't expecting it.
Attack Style: Finor likes to use his pokemon's psychic attacks on the floor boards, slowly destroying your pokemon's ability to move and come at him physically, while attacking them with large, telekinetically held two-by-fours. He will also use the same tactic out in the open, attacking with surround objects until your pokemon faints.
Pokemon (you may be challenged by any two out of the 4 he generally uses):
Woodwind - Kirlia
Gender: Female
Level: 25
Moves: Magical Leaf, Calm Mind, Confusion, Wish
Ability: Trace
Arpeggio - Meditite
Gender: Male
Level: 25
Moves: Calm Mind, Hidden Power (Electric), Confusion, Bide
Ability: Pure Power
Sonata - Kadabra
Gender: Female
Level: 28
Moves: Confusion, Reflect, Psybeam, Disable
Ability: Synchronize
Tenor - Psyduck
Gender: Male
Level: 27
Moves: Disable, Confusion, Water Pulse, Fury Swipes
Ability: Cloud Nine
Personality: Finor is an empath, who takes great care to keep his young charges under control, and teach them the basics of control. While in the school grounds he is fairly sober, and keen to help young psychics adjust to the rigors of having to be very, very careful how they think and feel.
Outside the grounds, he is cocky, self possessed, and gets quite the kick out of annoying Gym Leader Becca. Mainly he feels that she needs to take her work less seriously, and go on a vacation, or at least try to relax. Besides, her determination and stubborn strong will make him naturally gravitate towards her, as empaths tend to gravitate towards people with stronger control than they usually can manage. And Becca looks very cute when she scowls.
In the School:
While Finor doesn't allow his students to peddle their gifts (it sets a bad precedent, he claims, and encourages people to think of psychics as tools and appliances, rather than people), he is worried about funding, and so upper classmen often have fund raising drives when they know that there are trainers in town. Go to the school, and ask at the front desk if they are doing fund raising. If they are, you can go to the gym, and one of the upper classmen, under the watchful eyes of their teachers, will take one of your pokemon, and unlock a potential move they could learn. Usually there are only one or two moves that your pokemon could learn, and haven't yet, and the student will tell you what they are, so you and your pokemon have a final say in whether you want a psychic mucking around in your partner's brain or not. The fee for this is 3000 pyen per move.
The General Store:
The store in Firefly Village has a nice array of goods, as decent prices. The flute making industry here isn't as good as the Kuriblitz glass flute masters, but they do have a few nice ones as novelty items.
Pokeballs - 200 pyen
Potions - 250 pyen
Paralyze Heal - 400 pyen
Burn Heal - 200 pyen
Antidote - 300 pyen
Super Potions - 600 pyen
Blue Flute - 800 pyen
Yellow Flute - 1000 pyen
