Aya (Japanese: ?) is a ninja and Pokémon trainer who specializes in Poison-type Pokémon. She is the younger sister of Koga, the Fuchsia City Gym Leader, and she is a student of the Gym.

She also trains in jujitsu, and seems to have an interest in poetry.

In the Anime

Ash, Misty, and Brock came across the Fuchsia City Gym. It was a Japanese-style mansion in the middle of a forest.

They encountered a Venonat who led them through a wild chase through the booby-trap filled Gym.

A flurry of shurikens pinned Ash to a wall, thrown by the Venonat's trainer - a female ninja in a pink outfit.

Ash and Misty were angry for throwing such dangerous things around, but Brock was infatuated as usual.

She introduced herself, and Aya said that her Venonat had told her some foolish people had been setting off the mansion's traps. Aya challenged Ash to a battle against her Venonat and Ash agreed - sending out Bulbasaur. The Grass-type blew away Venonat's Stun Spore and used Leech Seed to trap and paralyze it's opponent.

Koga then swooped in and challenged Ash himself. Their match was interrupted by Team Rocket's attempted theft of the Gym's Voltorb pack. Misty's Psyduck soon sent Team Rocket packing and the match resumed with Ash winning the Soul Badge.

Much later, when the trio was traveling through Johto on their way to Ecruteak City, they once again met Aya. She was training at a nearby dojo, learning Pokémon Jujitsu. One of her exercises was to defeat her sensei's Ariados, but her Venonat kept losing.

Ash's Bulbasaur and Aya's Venonat had a rematch, but Venonat lost again.

Team Rocket tried to pilfer the Pokémon in the dojo. Aya's sensei and his Ariados couldn't keep up. But Aya had trained herself and Venonat in speed and agility and were able to catch up to Team Rocket. Alone, Jessie's Arbok nearly overpowered her and Venonat.

However, Aya had her Venonat use Rest. Thinking that it was helpless, Arbok used Wrap to squeeze the Bug-type Pokémon. Venonat then used an unavoidable Stun Spore - knocking Arbok out.

Pikachu blasted away Team Rocket, and Aya returned to the dojo, having finally won a battle.
