Aubrey was originally the brother to the Bug-type Gym Leader of the Leazon region. Due to a rather major argument between the two, Aubrey had stormed off away from his brother, vowing to prove that he could become just as capable as him, if not even better than him.

Eventually, Aubrey would end up a part of Team Union, and even managed to net himself a nice position in managing the division dedicated in cataloging the locations of various Pokemon throughout the region for sample purposes. In becoming Pokemorphed, he had wanted a Bug-type form, and was offered a random assortment of catalyst to choose from. In picking, he ended up as a Vespiquen.

A few of the Grunts under Aubrey would also go on to become Combees. Aubrey didn’t really think too much about this, and figured it was something that worked with the theme. After all, a Vespiquen did require some loyal Combees in order to properly get things done.

It wasn’t until one day, however, that one of the Combees slipped up and impulsively called her ‘mother’, which caught her completely off guard. In fact, after that, more of them started to refer to Aubrey as ‘mother’, which filled her with an odd… happy feeling. It felt right, and it even seemed to motivate her ‘children’ to do a better job in their tasks.

Amidst Aubrey’s desire to try and one-up his brother, and to show that he was fully capable on his own, ‘she’ found herself thrust into a strange position that gave her a sense of belonging. She felt at home surrounded by the Combee, and even taking care of them.
