Amber has red hair, tied into a ponytail with a fiery design and highlighted slightly with a golden-yellow. She wears a dark grey shirt and dark grey socks. She also has red shorts and red shoes with white soles and front.
Personality
True to her type, Amber has a fiery personality. She is quick to anger, and often lashes out at whoever sets her off, usually for a trivial reason. Even when she's calm she tends to yell and swear a lot.
She is extremely self-centered, due to the fact that she's been spoiled by Tesla. She constantly demands others to do things for her, but never does anything herself for others. At the beginning of the game she doesn't have any friends, and it's clear she's not very good at being one as she doesn't even let Venam when she's hanging out with the player.
At first she doesn't take care of any responsibilities, refusing to battle the player for a gym badge simply because she doesn't feel like it. After she's abducted by Madelis, however, she starts taking her responsibilities more seriously.
She has a love for music, which she probably inherited from Tesla, who was in a band when she was younger.
