History

Shinobu reveals her true age to Clemont and Bonnie

Shinobu first appeared alongside Hanzo in The Legend of the Ninja Hero!, where she welcomed Ash and his friends to the village. She also attended Sanpei's Pokémon battle with his brother Nihei.

Later, Ninja Village was attacked by villainous ninjas. During the attack, she tried to protect Hanzo, but failed and Hanzo was captured. As Ash and Sanpei chased after Hanzo's kidnappers, Shinobu, Serena, Clemont, and Bonnie decided to help the other villagers. After meeting up with Ippei and Nihei, she and Serena got caught by a device from Team Rocket, however thanks to her ninja techniques, they easily escaped.

After the ninja army had retreated, Shinobu joined the others to hear Saizo tell about Kagetomo. After discovering the location of Hanzo, Otori Mountain, everyone decided to head there and save him.

Upon arriving at Otori Mountain, the group got attacked by Heidayu and several ninjas. Shinobu sent out her Liepard to battle the ninja's Pokémon and, together with Serena, Clemont, and Nihei, managed to defeat them. After Kagetomo had been defeated and Ippei had been given the title of chieftain, Shinobu was seen again saying goodbye to Ash and his friends the next day. After the group's departure she joined Hanzo, Ippei, Sanpei, Nihei, and Saizo in a conversation about the mysterious power of Ash's Greninja.
