Ryme is one of the Gym Leaders of Paldea, specializing in Ghost-types. She lives in Montenevera and runs its Gym, as well as being a hip-hop artist with a skill for rapping. Ryme has been regarded as a legendary rapper for decades, ever since one of her Pokémon passed when she was a teenager, and she wrote a song about her grief. Ryme very much carries the vibe of a "cool, older woman", and takes a lot of pride in both her music and her battling.

Your interpretation can vary, though, and does not need to match perfectly! We are not looking for an impression, but we wish to give a reference as part of the audition material.

Note: Ryme is a woman of color. We will accept auditions from all ethnicities, but auditions from people of color will be prioritized!
