Tyme is the older sister ofRyme. Her sister Ryme is one of eight current Gym Leaders ofPaldea, while Tyme used to be a Rock-type Gym Leader. She is a kindhearted person and will answer questions when a student or the player is in need. However, she avoids questions relating to why she quit as a Gym Leader, as they make her fill up with nostalgia and sadness. Nevertheless, she enjoys being a teacher atNaranja AcademyS/Uva AcademyV. She often scoldsClavell for breaking his own academy's rules, andHassel for his emotional outbursts during his own classes.
She is calm and poised, though at times she demonstrates a more excitable side, such as at the end of herbond and during her Academy Ace battle. She also shows some nervous tendencies in herbond.
In herforming bonds, she becomes anxious that someone is watching her. Because her sister is a Ghost-type specialist, she is familiar enough with Ghost types to recognize that it must be a human following her. She creates a plan to force them out into the open and learns that it is a student waiting to ask her a question. When she confronts the student, it turns out they are a fan of hers from her time as a Gym Leader, and they wish to know why she never talks about her reason for quitting. She clarifies that her reason was simply to focus on her teaching career, and although she feels emotional when she discusses her time as Gym Leader, she knows the Gym is in good hands with her sister.
Her classes explain the math behind various Pokémon battling mechanics in a more clear and specific way than other games in the series do. She also participates in theAcademy Ace Tournament.
