xerosic kisser???
Actinidia is kind of a name placeholder but it's ok !!
Actinidia was a Kalosian searcher ! They worked mostly on documenting wild Pokémon and their behavior , and was specialized in Feliformia Pokémon (especially cats !). They traveled a lot but they were officially still a Kalos resident , their home being in Laverre City.
They worked alongside Sycamore to talk about the hypothetical mega evolution of Meowstic , before it was discovered by the MZ team.
During the Team Flare event , they moved temporally in Lumiose City to assist the police when needed and assist Sycamore with whatever he was working on. They saw Emma and Mimi a few time , but never took time to talk with her , as their focus was mostly on Mimi and Mimi was not really giving sign of wanting to be around anyone else. During the post game , Actinidia was called over by Looker , without really understanding why until they arrived in the office. Looker felt like Mimi was acting weird around this weird person in a suit he was trying to catch. Actinidia gleefully offered to help , and it made it clear Mimi knew the person in the suit. Looker said that it must have been Emma. After they arrested the culprit , Xerosic , Actinidia moved in Lumiose to take care of Sycamore's lab during his absence , as he quickly left , probably out of guilt or because staying in Kalos reminded him of too many bad memories. They stayed for a few year , until Interpol reached out again , telling them about Mable's future in the lab , and about how they were offering more freedom to Xerosic , in exchange for his intellect and his knowledge, as it could be very useful for them to master the Expansion Suit . (also because apparently in Pokémon they don't like jail )
They deemed that Xerosic was partly responsible for the incidents and the crime he was judged for , as he seemed to have been manipulated by something during most of the events , although not completely. It has been theorized that it was his Malamar doing.
(See my take on the Malamar theory here (I didn't invent it lol))
They said that they needed someone to look over him and his work , to avoid any other Essentia or Ultimate Weapon issues. Actinidia accepted , under the condition that they could move back near Laverre City , as Lumiose was starting to feel overwhelming for them. Xerosic and Actinidia worked in a smaller laboratory , near the Poke ball Factory , and Actinidia started asking for more Cat related Expansion suit and Xerosic didn't put up much resistance to work on them , maybe out of guilt , or maybe because Actinidia was very convincing. Over the years of working together (or maybe month on Actinidia's side) they began to get closer , and each others confident. And then they kissed. Xerosic kisser. Actinidia was in love first tho.
Xerosic still have dubious moral around science tho , with or without Malamar , but not to the same extent !!!
