In the games
In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl
Dawn lives in Twinleaf Town with her mother and dreams big, so she and her best friend (and soon-to-be rival) have high hopes of catching the legendary Pokémon of their nearby Lake. After meeting Professor Rowan and his assistant Lucas, they are attacked by wild Pokémon and as a last resort, use the Pokémon in the briefcase the Professor has forgotten. After bringing the Pokémon back Dawn receives the Pokémon she used as well as a Pokédex and goes on to gather the eight badges of Sinnoh, defeat Team Galactic and conquer the Pokémon League all before taking on the Battle Frontier.
She has to stop Team Galactic from trying to use either DialgaWrong template. See Template:Sup/doc. or PalkiaWrong template. See Template:Sup/doc. to destroy the entire universe in order to create a new one.
If the player chooses Lucas, she will become Rowan's assistant for the game. Dawn lives in Sandgem Town with her little sister, grandfather, and father—who works as an assistant of Professor Rowan. She is already the Professor's assistant at the beginning of the game. She also demonstrates to the player how to capture Pokémon by capturing a wild Bidoof.

In Pokémon Platinum
In the events of Platinum, Dawn and Barry instead go to visit Professor Rowan at his lab rather than go to the lake in search of a Pokémon of the same rarity as a red Gyarados. They receive their Pokémon on Route 201 when Professor Rowan realizes that they are so dedicated to Pokémon as to attempt to travel from Twinleaf Town to Sandgem Town through the tall grass without any Pokémon of their own.
In the events of Platinum, Team Galactic attempts to use both Dialga and Palkia, but they are stopped by Giratina. Finally, Dawn has to go to the Distortion World and face Giratina, in order to stop both worlds from destroying each other.
She will again be Rowan's assistant if the player chooses Lucas.
Years later, her exploits are referenced by Cynthia, who remembers a young Trainer who defeated her.

Sandgem Town
- After entering the Hall of Fame
- "Hi, <player>! How's your Poké Radar? When you use it, do you sometimes see more than one patch of tall grass rustling? I've heard that patches farther away give you a better chanse of seeing the same kind of Pokémon in a row."
- "So, <player>. I'm also helping the professor put together the National Pokédex. Catching Pokémon can be really challenging, can't it? But, it's also so much fun!"
- "Sometimes a patch of grass sparkles when a Poké Radar is used. People say a different-colored Pokémon is hiding there! Could that be true?"
- On the player's birthday
- "Is today maybe... Your birthday, <player>?"
- Yes: "Giggle... Congratulations, <player>! And many more happy returns!"
- No: "Oh, it isn't? I wonder what made me think that today was your birthday?"
The Villa
- After buying Small Sofa
- "Wow, <player>, this sofa is so sumpotuos! You know, I think we have similar tastes, <player>."
- "I'm envious of you having your own place. I have to share a bedroom with my little sister!"
