Sophia
Sophia 50 years ago

Sophia (Japanese: ソフィア Sophia) is a character of the day who appears in Moving Pictures.

She lives with her husband, Marcello, at the Sunflora Lodge, which they run together. She likes to tell romantic stories about herself that aren't necessarily true. During the episode, Sophia and Marcello had been married for 50 years, and to that point had taken an anniversary picture for each of the 50 years, with hundreds of Sunflora. On their 50th anniversary, all they could find was a Sunkern. The Sunflora no longer came due to the colder climate caused by an Articuno living nearby. Seeing this, Brock suggested to Ash that he should evolve the Sunkern with the Sun Stone he won as a prize in the Bug-Catching Contest. After doing so, the newly evolved Sunflora sang a song that attracted hundreds of Sunflora. The couple was very pleased and expressed their thanks to Ash and company.

Sophia's Sunflora
Sunkern → Sunflora
Sophia befriended a Sunflora when it was still a Sunkern. It first appeared when Ash and his friends including Todd Snap spotted a frozen Sunkern they took it to the Sunflora Lodge where Sophia nursed it back to health. That year, the Sunflora had mysteriously disappeared by Articuno's icy winds and snow. Later, when Team Rocket caused havoc with one of their machines, Sunkern used Sunny Day to melt the snow created by the machine. Ash and his friends were sure that the Sunflora would come now, but unfortunately they did not. Ash then remembered the Sun Stone he won in the Bug-Catching Contest and used it to evolve Sunkern into a Sunflora. The newly-evolved Sunflora suddenly called, and hundreds of Sunflora appeared and together they posed for the photo for Sophia and Marcello's 50th anniversary.

Sunflora's only known move is Sunny Day.
