Marilyn claims her perception of "cute Pokémon" was altered to fit in more with normal convention, because she was teased as a child for believing the cutest Pokémon ever was Shellder, a sentiment none of her friends agreed with.

Marilyn

Marilyn (Japanese: マリリン Marilyn) is a character of the day who appeared in Battling a Cute Drama!. She is voiced by 後藤麻衣 Mai Goto in Japanese.

Marilyn is a Trainer who believes only Pokémon she finds to be cute are worthwhile. Beyond that, she prefers things being cuter in their own right, calling Dawn and Brock "Dawny" (Japanese: Hikarin) and "Brocky" (Japanese: Takerin) because she believed they were cuter names.

She only believes that a Pokémon is cute if its height is no more than 2 feet and if it has not evolved. Even then, she doesn't consider everything that meets that criteria to be cute, including Mime Jr. and Piplup. Meowth also meets the height and evolutionary standards, although Marilyn didn't even seem to notice Meowth at any point.

After seeing Dawn's Buneary, she fawns over how cute it is (dismissing Piplup as not cute enough), and challenges Dawn to a battle. During the battle, she orders her Cherubi not to attack, in order to stall and keep the battling going so she could witness a "valiant battle". Brock gets irritated by Marilyn's superficial attitude towards Pokémon, and decides to teach her about the inner strength and beauty of Pokémon with a battle.

Marilyn claims her perception of "cute Pokémon" was altered to fit in more with normal convention, because she was teased as a child for believing the cutest Pokémon ever was Shellder, a sentiment none of her friends agreed with.

Shellder

Marilyn possesses a fourth Pokémon, as its Poké Ball is seen. She intended to use it against Brock, as she knew that the battle was a 3-on-3 battle and initially had no intention to use Shellder. However, she replaces it with Shellder instead during her battle against Brock. Its identity is unknown, although given her criteria for judging a Pokémon's cuteness, it is probably unevolved and no more than 2 feet in height.

Trivia

  • Marilyn dresses in the Sweet Lolita clothing style.
  • Marilyn owns two Pokémon whose names start with "Ch".
