Kirby

John's Whismur (Jon's Gonyonyo), nicknamed Kirby, is the second Pokemon obtained by John for his journies in Unova. Originally caught by Summer upon her return to Hoenn shortly before heading to Unova, Whismur always cried and was unhappy in Summer's care, but once in the arms of John, she became calm. Noticing the bond the two shared, Summer gave Whismur to John, where she grew to be tough despite her small size.

With Summer
Whismur was caught by Summer after her return to her homeland of Hoenn after being discouraged of her Sinnoh journey following the death of Barry, and taken to Unova alongside Summer. Whismur was never happy in Summer's care, always crying. John held onto Whismur and she calmed down. Summer told John to babysit Whismur while she went around Accumula Town for the day, so he spent time with her and the two grew a bond. When Summer noticed this bond, she gave Whismur to John to keep.

With John
John immediately nicknamed the little Whismur "Kirby" upon having her in his party. Kirby eventually grew to be an overconfident, arrogant little Pokemon while in John's care. She has her strengths, but often underestimates her opponents.
