Crispin (Japanese: アカマツ Akamatsu) is a character introduced in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero. He is a first-year student attending Blueberry Academy, and a member of the BB League Elite Four.

In the core series games

Crispin enjoys cooking as well as battling, and often cooks for the other members of the Elite Four after they finish their club activities. His parents run a restaurant that he plans to take over once he finishes school. He appears to have a crush on Lacey and is ranked as the lowest Elite Four member in Blueberry Academy, situated at Savanna Plaza.

Crispin is first met in the Blueberry Academy Cafeteria, where he votes in favor of the player getting to enter the BB League. His Elite Trial consists of the player having to create a super spicy sandwich from ingredients gathered from League Club members. After the trial has been cleared, Crispin can be battled. He rewards the player with TM207 (Temper Flare) upon being beaten. When Kieran is later dethroned by the player as the BB League Champion and seemingly demoted to being the highest ranked Elite Four member, Crispin is alarmed when told that he could lose his own Elite Four position as a result of that shift, being its lowest ranked member already, though Kieran later withdrawing from the League altogether saves him from this fate.

Pokémon

Crispin keeps his Pokémon in Quick Balls and will Terastallize his Blaziken at the first opportunity.



Traded to the player

Upon the third unique interaction with Crispin in the League Club Room, he will trade a Magby to the player in exchange for almost any Pokémon excluding Shiny, Legendary, or Mythical Pokémon.
