Her specialty is Dragon-types, and she is [[Drayden (pokemon)|]]'s apprentice. Her main Pokémon is [[Haxorus]].

She is also known for being the first naturally dark-skinned main character in the Pokémon series. She returns in [[pokemon journeys|Pokémon Journeys]] in her capacity as Champion of Unova, and battles Ash as he climbs the ranks of the World Coronation Series. [spoiler]Eventually, she joins Ash in the Masters Eight.[/spoilers]
