Courtney Yamazaki

Kagari Courtney Yamazaki is from Mossdeep City in the Hoenn region. She's a former member of Team Magma and is now a member of the Tekiyoku. She's a Ghost Manipulator.

Present
Courtney hasn't been shown in the series yet, but has been seen in the Transmissions. She appeared in Transmission #4. She actually appeared at the end, because she was late for the interview that was being held with Archie, Shelly, Maxie, and Homura.

When she appeared, she eerily asked why people are afraid of Ghost Manipulators. This ended with her saying she wants to "snuggle" with everyone, before laughing insanely.

Personality
Courtney is quite eccentric. Not much is known about her past or what her hobbies are. She doesn't seem to have much self-awareness of her actions. It's mainly clear that she doesn't get perturbed easily, instead causing that effect in others. She seems perfect for her Manipulation, being Ghost.

She shows a liking to wanting to "snuggle" with everyone. She declares that it's the main thing she wants to do, without elaborating on what she means by it.

Naming

 * Her first name, Kagari, is her Japanese name. It comes from 篝火 kagaribi, which means "bonfire".
 * Her middle name, Courtney, is her English dub name. It comes from the word, "country", in the way that it represents an area of land. It's one letter shy of being an anagram for the word.
 * This naming scheme is similar to the one for Homura.
 * Her last name, Yamazaki, was randomly selected from a Japanese name generator.

General

 * Her birthday, January 22nd, was randomly selected.
 * Courtney is not in the main Pokémon anime. She & Gabby and Ty are currently the only Tears of the Fallen characters to have this characteristic.
