'''Bonnie''' (Japanese: '''ユリーカ''' ''Eureka'') is an aspiring [[Pokémon Trainer]] and a {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}}. She made her debut appearance in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'' along with her older brother, {{an|Clemont}}.
'''Bonnie''' (Japanese: '''ユリーカ''' ''Eureka'') is an aspiring [[Pokémon Trainer]] and a former {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}}. She made her debut appearance in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'' along with her older brother, {{an|Clemont}}.


==History==
==In animation==
Bonnie was first seen with her brother Clemont in [[Lumiose City]]. Both were standing outside the Prism Tower when they watched Ash go inside to challenge the Lumiose Gym. When Ash was ejected out of the building, Clemont saved Ash with his Clemontic Gear while Bonnie saved [[Ash's Pikachu]] by catching him before he hit the ground. Thinking that he was cute, Bonnie hugged Pikachu, who shocked her in retaliation. Bonnie quickly apologized and explained that she is too young to have her own Pokémon and therefore always becomes excited when she meets one. Though she cannot own a Pokémon, she participates in other activities when she can. When Clemont and Ash had a battle against each other, she refereed the match for them. She later led them to [[Professor Sycamore]]'s lab when {{AP|Froakie}} was injured by {{TRT}}.
===History===
====Pre-series====
Bonnie grew up in [[Lumiose City]] in the [[Kalos]] region with her father, [[Meyer]], and older brother, {{an|Clemont}}. After Clemont became the [[Gym Leader]] in their hometown, Bonnie spent most of her time there. Bonnie also loved Pokémon a lot and decided to become a Pokémon Trainer someday.


In ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', Bonnie met Professor Sycamore's {{p|Garchomp}} and played with the professor's other Pokémon, before Team Rocket infiltrated the lab. Bonnie tagged along with Ash and Clemont to help free the enraged Garchomp from the machine controlling her, and Bonnie watched her brother use one of his inventions to break in to the Prism Tower.

=====Before traveling with Ash=====
Bonnie was first seen with her brother Clemont in [[Lumiose City]]. Both were standing outside the Prism Tower when they watched Ash go inside to challenge the Lumiose Gym. When Ash was ejected out of the building, Clemont saved Ash with his Clemontic Gear while Bonnie saved [[Ash's Pikachu]] by catching him before he hit the ground.

Bonnie quickly apologized and explained that she is too young to have her own Pokémon and therefore always becomes excited when she meets one. Though she cannot own a Pokémon, she participates in other activities when she can. When Clemont and Ash had a {{pkmn|battle}} against each other, she refereed the match for them. She later led them to {{an|Professor Sycamore}}'s lab when {{AP|Froakie}} was injured by {{TRT}}.


In ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', Bonnie and Clemont officially decided to accompany Ash on his journey through [[Kalos]]. Later in the episode, the group encountered a wild {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}. Bonnie asked Clemont to allow her to keep Dedenne, and Ash agreed, Bonnie tried to offer a berry to Dedenne, but a wild {{p|Fletchling}} stole the berry, scaring off Dedenne in the process. She later watched with her brother as Ash caught the {{AP|Fletchling}}. After it was caught, Bonnie scolded Fletchling for stealing Dedenne's food but quickly forgave the Pokémon. Dedenne was later seen following Bonnie and the others.

Then, in ''[[XY004|A Shockingly Cheeky Friendship!]]'', Bonnie met the Dedenne from the previous episode when he stole the food she was trying to feed to Pikachu and Fletchling. She begged Clemont to capture him for her, but Dedenne forced the group to chase him in several holes in the ground, which caused Dedenne and Pikachu to get lost together. Eventually, Pikachu and Dedenne returned, but a previous encounter with Team Rocket left Dedenne exhausted to the point of fainting, much to Bonnie's horror. After Dedenne was rejuvenated by one of Clemont's inventions, he bonded with Clemont and helped defeat Team Rocket. Afterward, Dedenne allowed Clemont to capture him so that Bonnie could keep him in her satchel.

In ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]'', Bonnie discovered [[Squishy|a strange, green Pokémon]] (unbeknownst to her or her friends, a {{p|Zygarde}} [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Zygarde|Core]]) resting in her satchel. The Pokémon panicked upon seeing Bonnie and attempted to escape, to no avail. Although baffled as to what it was, as Ash and {{an|Serena}}'s attempts to scan it with their [[Pokédex]]es had proven futile, Bonnie [[nickname]]d it '''Squishy''' (Japanese: '''プニちゃん''' ''Puni-chan'') in the absence of a species name, dead set on looking after it. Unfortunately, Squishy was quickly lost because of a {{p|Dodrio}} stampede caused by [[Sawyer]]'s {{TP|Sawyer|Grovyle}}. Although they quickly caught up to it, it had been captured by a group of [[Team Flare]] {{tc|Team Flare Grunt|Grunts}} led by [[Celosia]]. Ash and Sawyer were able to rescue Squishy from Team Flare, Bonnie catching it after it was dropped by Celosia's {{p|Drapion}}.

Later, Bonnie was unable to get Squishy to eat, not understanding why until it crawled over to a rock to rest and absorb sunlight. Afterwards, when it saw [[Terminus Cave]] on Serena's [[Town Map]], it attacked the device, apparently thinking it was a portal to the cave; as a result, the group decided that was their next destination. That night, Squishy, detecting that Celosia was still searching for it, woke the group. The group once again defended it, Serena and Clemont falling back to escape with Bonnie and Squishy as Ash and Sawyer covered their escape. However, Bonnie lost her balance and fell while crossing a river; although she didn't seem hurt, she had lost Squishy again. By the time she reunited with Squishy, it was exhausted from having defended itself against another group of Team Flare Grunts led by [[Bryony]], but it absorbed light to recover, much to Bonnie's relief.

During ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', Bonnie brought Squishy back to Terminus Cave, where it started meditating in the water. When Team Flare attacked, Bonnie nearly got hit by {{p|Drapion}}'s {{m|Pin Missile}} but was saved by Ash. Greninja eventually recovered Squishy and gave it to Bonnie, but Squishy ultimately decided to battle Team Flare itself. In doing so, Bonnie and her friends learned that Squishy had the ability to access stronger formes. In this act of bravery, however, Squishy got separated from the rest of Ash's group, which left Bonnie very worried.

During the events of ''[[XY103|A Cellular Connection!]]'', Bonnie wanted to go look for Squishy even though Clemont explicitly forbade her from doing so, out of concern that she would get hurt. When the group eventually got chased by a group of wild {{p|Toxicroak}} as a result of Bonnie's recklessness, {{TP|Clemont|Bunnelby}} got hurt saving her from a nasty fall. Bunnelby was admitted to a [[Pokémon Center]], which left Bonnie feeling very guilty about it, and she promptly went to look for the herbs necessary to cure him. By the end of the episode Bunnelby had recovered. Squishy had overseen Bonnie's efforts, and as a result returned to the group once more, as it believed humans and Pokémon could live together thanks to Bonnie.

During [[XY106|the]] [[XY116|following]] [[XY119|episodes]], Bonnie would often be able to tell whenever Squishy was worried and would sing a song to calm it. During ''[[XY114|A Keeper for Keeps?]]'', Bonnie's attempts to get Clemont a wife caused a girl to gain interest in him, to her surprise. She was very displeased as she feared this meant Clemont would stop caring for her. She made several attempts to break them up, all of which backfired. At the end of the episode, however, Clemont revealed that he intended to continue looking after Bonnie. Having learned nothing from the whole ordeal, Bonnie immediately resumed her attempts to get Clemont a wife.

During the events of ''[[XY118|Championing a Research Battle!]]'', she was the one who told Diantha about Ash and Greninja's unique transformation. [[XY120|Later on]], she would be the one to dub the form "Ash-Greninja".

[[XY131|After watching Ash at the Lumiose Conference]], Bonnie was shocked when Squishy fled after the stadium was attacked by weird vines. In [[XY132|the following episode]], despite the protests of [[Meyer|Blaziken Mask]], she went after Squishy along with Clemont and Serena. After she finally senses exactly where Squishy was, she was amazed when it transformed into a Zygarde to confront the one under Team Flare's control. In ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', She watched as Squishy and [[Z2]] were battling each other throughout Lumiose City until the former was subdued by the latter. She sensed Squishy's pain and fell to her knees and after she stood back up, she was rescued by Blaziken Mask's Mega Blaziken when one of the giant roots almost attacked her. Despite Blaziken Mask's attempt to comfort her, she couldn't help but scream out as she kept feeling Squishy's pain.


==Character==
In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Bonnie kept trying to reach out to Squishy, who in return attacked her with vines. After Blaziken Mask took a hit for her, a desperate Bonnie began to tear up and, with no other options left, began singing Squishy's song. This managed to snap Squishy out of its mind control, and Bonnie was overjoyed when Squishy came to her side. Soon after, however, Squishy left after it sensed Z2 being freed from Team Flare's control. In [[XY135|the following episode]], Bonnie followed Squishy who searched for Z2. Z2 initially was very skeptical and hostile to Squishy and Bonnie, but Bonnie reached out to Z2 and it allowed Bonnie to carry it. After that, Bonnie, along with Squishy, Z2, and Blaziken Mask were brought along in the helicopter with Ash, [[Alain]], Clemont, and [[Malva]], who's chasing after the [[Giant Rock]].
[[File:Bonnie Proposal.png|thumb|250px|Bonnie trying to find a wife for her brother]]
Bonnie is a young and cheerful girl who is always excited to meet new Pokémon. At times, she gets too invasive with Pokémon, similar to {{an|Iris}}, [[Burgundy]] and {{an|Bianca}}, causing them to attack her. She is very proud of her brother's accomplishments as an inventor, but sometimes criticizes him if his inventions do not work. For reasons currently unknown, she tries to find a wife for Clemont, first seen when she asks [[Viola]] and {{OBP|Jessica|XY008}} if they could marry her brother. This causes him to get embarrassed and remove her with his {{p|Aipom}} arm.


Bonnie seems to see Serena as a big sister, and they actively take part in several activities together, like baking {{DL|Pokémon-Amie|Poké Puffs}}, or clothes shopping. They also sleep together and play games as well. In fact, the majority of the time, if she isn't clinging on to Clemont, she's attached herself to Serena. On the rare occasion she's scared or troubled, if Clemont isn't nearby, Bonnie will hug Serena for comfort. She is also aware that Serena has [[AmourShipping|a crush]] on Ash.
For most of the fight with the Giant Rock, Bonnie stayed with Squishy and Z2 on the sidelines watching the event with [[Mairin]] and Serena who was tasked to protect the two young girls. In ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', after a devastating attack from the Giant Rock, Bonnie and Clemont finally discovered the true identity of Blaziken Mask as their father, whose mask fell off during the attack. When Squishy and Z2 both left her to stop the Giant Rock for good, Bonnie tried to chase them but she was stopped by Meyer. Soon after, Squishy and Z2 joined hands and transformed into Zygarde's Perfect Forme, and Bonnie was shown to be very excited, cheering the [[Legendary Pokémon]] stopping [[Lysandre]], destroying the Giant Rock, and restoring Kalos's environment to normal. However, after reverting into the cores, both Squishy and Z2 had to leave her, as they were slightly exhausted from the battle and required some rest. Before leaving, Squishy expressed its deep gratitude towards Bonnie for protecting it all this time and showing it that humans and Pokémon may have hope and determination to never give up. As Squishy and Z2 fade away, Bonnie tearfully proclaimed her love to the Legendary Pokémon once again.
[[File:XYS06.png|thumb|left|250px|Bonnie and Clemont with Cilan]]
In ''[[XY137|Battling With a Clean Slate!]]'', Bonnie helped Ash, Serena, and her father clean up the gym to prepare for the gym's reopening. At Professor Sycamore's lab, she and the others helped Mairin prepare for the welcome party for Alain. Bonnie made a decoration of Squishy and said that she missed him, wondering what he was up to ever since the Team Flare incident ended. Ash reassured that Squishy was doing fine, and Bonnie agreed. The next day, she watched the Gym battle between [[Alvin]] and Clembot, which ended with Alvin being the victor. After the Gym battle, Professor Sycamore gave medals to Bonnie and Dedenne, as well as Ash, Serena, Clemont, Mairin, Alain, and all of their Pokémon, for all of their heroic efforts against Team Flare. The group then posed for a photo. At night, she watched the fireworks and Prism Tower lighting up with Ash, Serena, and Clemont.


Bonnie doesn't interact with Ash as often as she does with Serena or her brother, but it is evident that she looks upon him favorably, and respects him. She almost always supports Ash in battle, the only exception being when he battles her brother. Ash in turn cares for Bonnie like a little sister, and does his best to help protect her, though he is quite lenient about it compared to Clemont. Being relatively immature himself, Ash is usually the first to support Bonnie's pleas for fun activities, even when Clemont is reluctant. She also views Ash as being quite dense, being unable to see the obvious affection Serena has for him.
In ''[[XY139|Facing the Needs of the Many!]]'', Bonnie went after Xerosic along with Ash, Serena, and Ash's Greninja to rescue her brother Clemont from Xerosic, but when they got there, Clemont was being put under control by Xerosic. After Xerosic was arrested by Officer Jenny, Bonnie reunited with Squishy and Zygarde, who told the gang that Zygarde needed Greninja's powers as Ash-Greninja. After Greninja left with Squishy and Zygarde, Bonnie made a promise to Squishy that once she becomes a trainer, she will go on another adventure with Squishy in the future.


Bonnie dislikes feeling left out. In ''[[XY036|Battles in the Sky!]]'', she got upset because she was too small to glide in a wing suit and in ''[[XY052|A Stealthy Challenge!]]'', where she naively asks Ash's [[Evolution|newly evolved]] {{AP|Frogadier}} to change back into {{p|Froakie}} so she could see his evolution, in which Clemont replied that her request was obviously impossible. Though she cannot own her own Pokémon, she participates in things that she can still do, such as refereeing unofficial matches. She also asks her brother permission to "keep" Pokémon that she one day wants to train, when she is old enough to be a Trainer. She enjoys taking care of her friend's Pokémon and particularly likes brushing their fur, similar to a {{pkmn|groomer}}. She always likes to be able to participate in the same activities the rest of the group are taking part in, and not being able to (such as in ''Battles in the Sky!'' when she was denied entry to the indoor sky diving facility), or otherwise being unable to get her own way, causes her to pout. These accomplishments may seem small but they are a way for Bonnie to occupy herself and continuously learn more about being a Trainer.
In ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]'', during Ash's video call to {{Delia|his mother}} and {{an|Professor Oak}}, Delia tells Bonnie, Clemont, and Serena they are free to stop by Pallet Town sometime for a visit. After the video call, Bonnie realizes that their Kalos journey was coming to a close. Bonnie was upset, in which she barely ate anything and claimed she had too many sweets earlier. Clemont reminded her not to do so before meals. Later, Professor Sycamore, Alain, and Mairin stop by to bid them a final farewell before the gang heads to the airport. After Professor Sycamore, Alain, and Mairin left, Ash and the others head to the airport, which caused Bonnie to be sad again.


[[File:Bonnie Drawing.png|thumb|left|250px|Bonnie's drawing of the group's Pokémon]]
When the gang arrived at the airport, the Pokémon started bidding many farewells to each other. However, Dedenne was unable to bear the goodbyes and runs off around the airport. After Bonnie found Dedenne, she tells him that they need to say their goodbyes. She explains to Dedenne that Ash and Serena need to go on and pursue their dreams, the same as she wants to become a Trainer someday with her partner Dedenne. She told him that she will hopefully defeat Serena and Ash in a Pokémon Showcase and Pokémon Battle respectively, and have a gym battle against her brother Clemont. Dedenne jumps back into Bonnie's arms, although still upset, but understands what Bonnie is saying and begins to cheer up along with her.
Bonnie is shown to be innocently ignorant of scary things, seeing them more as being 'interesting' or 'fun'. This is seen in ''[[XY014|Seeking Shelter From the Storm!]]'' and ''[[XY072|Scary Hospitality!]]'', where, when facing supernatural phenomenon that scares her elder travelling companions, Bonnie is seen happily looking around for the source of it. That's not to say that Bonnie can't be scared. Though she has no problem watching Pokémon battles, Bonnie does not like bullying or one-sided violence, and is often seen burying her face in her brother's or Serena's clothes in such situations.
 
After Serena's flight left for Hoenn, Clemont and Ash have one final battle before Ash's flight leaves for Kanto, just like how their Kalos adventure all started. Bonnie watches the battle between Clemont's Bunnelby and Ash's Pikachu. After the battle during the sunset, she and Clemont watch as Ash's flight leaves Kalos for Kanto. Later, Bonnie and Clemont return to Prism Tower while she recalls all the amazing Pokémon she has met and befriended throughout her journey with Clemont, Ash, and Serena, such as having a {{p|Flabébé}} in Bonnie's ponytail in ''[[XY027|To Find a Fairy Flower!]]'', meeting a {{p|Lapras}} and taking care of it along with The Lapras Defense Crew ([[Jay]], [[Heidi]], and [[Kye]]) in ''[[XY049|Bonnie for the Defense!]]'', looking after and having fun with a {{p|Tyrunt}} from the fossil research lab in ''[[XY086|The Tiny Caretaker!]]'', and finally [[Squishy]]. She also recalls playing Ninja along with Dedenne and Pikachu, proposing to [[Lilia]] to be a keeper for her brother Clemont, and finally promising Squishy that she will go on a brand new adventure with him as soon as she becomes a Trainer someday.
 
In [[XYS06]], Clemont attended a [[fishing]] competition and brought Bonnie along with him. A short while later, they met {{an|Cilan}}, a [[Pokémon Connoisseur]]. Cilan told Bonnie and Clemont that he wanted to visit Prism Tower, so she and her brother accompanied him there. When they decided to take the subway to get there, Bonnie, however, ended up boarding the train all by herself and she did not realize that the train she boarded had a problem. Cilan and Clemont both managed to rescue Bonnie from the runaway malfunctioned train. However, just before the two reached the train, a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Eelektross}} got the train to move again with Bonnie still on board. After she got rescued before the train crashed, they took Cilan to check out Prism Tower before he split up with Bonnie and Clemont.
 
====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
[[File:Bonnie JN.png|thumb|250px|Bonnie in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'']]
Bonnie reappeared in ''[[JN103|The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!]]'', meeting [[Goh]] as he was trying to catch a {{TP|Goh|Froakie}}. Once Goh had caught Froakie, Bonnie accompanied him to the Lumiose Gym, where they reunited with Ash and Clemont. Seeing Ash's Pokémon team, Bonnie instantly took a liking to {{AP|Dracovish}} and made friends with it. She later observed a brief [[Double Battle]] between Ash and Clemont.
 
In ''[[JN104|Taking Two For The Team!]]'', Bonnie joined Clemont and Goh in watching Ash's [[World Coronation Series]] battle against [[Drasna]]. She also revealed that Clemont had once battled Drasna as well, although Clemont didn't want to be reminded of it, due to how utterly he had been defeated. After the battle, Bonnie asked Drasna to marry her brother, much to Clemont's embarrassment.
 
Bonnie was seen in a flashback in ''[[JN105|Reuniting for the First Time!]]''.
 
In ''[[JN131|Paring Pokémon While Parrying!]]'' and ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Bonnie and Clemont were seen watching Ash's [[Masters Eight Tournament]] match against {{an|Leon}}.
 
====Other appearances====
Bonnie made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'' alongside Clemont.

All in all, Bonnie is still a child. In ''[[XY006|Battling on Thin Ice!]]'', she became tired easily and had to be put to bed early. In ''[[XY016|A Jolting Switcheroo!]]'', she began to cry after she lost track of Dedenne. Ash and Serena had to help calm her down and encouraged her not to give up. In ''[[XY045|Splitting Heirs!]]'', it was revealed that she dislikes carrots. In ''[[XY059|Under the Pledging Tree!]]'', Bonnie drew a portrait of {{ashfr|the gang}}'s Pokémon during the [[Coumarine City]] Pledging Tree Festival.

Due to not being a [[Pokémon Trainer]] yet, Bonnie is unable to {{pkmn|training|raise}} her own {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Nevertheless, she has befriended a variety of Pokémon during her travels. She is also taking care of [[Clemont's Dedenne]] until she becomes a Pokémon Trainer.
 
Despite this, Bonnie has been in a couple of [[Pokémon battle]]s, such as {{TRT}}. When she battles, she usually provides support if she was teaming up with her friends and would use either long or distance attacks.
 
This listing is of the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} Bonnie is taking care of, befriended, and temporarily used in the {{pkmn|animated series}}:

After playing with Lapras, the children discovered its body was feeling hot. It was briefly treated by {{an|Clemont}}, but he suggested they should bring a [[Nurse Joy]] as Lapras had a serious fever. Nurse Joy arrived and quickly made Lapras recover. After healing, Lapras started to cry out for the sky. Clemont figured it wanted to return to its friends in the sea. Although the children were initially against the idea of letting Lapras return to its natural habitat, they decided that if they really loved it, they would help in returning it.

After this, its friends quickly came to help it and froze Team Rocket with {{m|Ice Beam}}. Afterward, Lapras said goodbye to the Lapras Defense Force as it returned to sea with its friends.

* Bonnie is the youngest female protagonist in the [[Pokémon animated series]].
* Bonnie serves as an antithesis to {{an|Brock}}'s {{cat|Anime running gags|running gag}} as she is the one who requests any older female character that the group encounters to marry {{an|Clemont}} and is subsequently removed by him instead of the other way around.

** One noticeable difference is that Bonnie does not ask any [[Nurse Joy]]s or [[Officer Jenny]]s to marry Clemont; these are the most common targets of Brock's affection.
** One noticeable difference is that Bonnie does not ask any [[Nurse Joy]]s or [[Officer Jenny]]s to marry Clemont; these are the most common targets of Brock's affection.
* Much like {{an|Iris}} at the beginning of the {{series|Best Wishes}}, Bonnie (along with Ash and Clemont) was shocked by Pikachu when first meeting Ash. This follows the running gag in the anime, which involves Pikachu accidentally frying all of Ash's female traveling companions' [[bicycle]]s, or, if they do not have one, shocking the girls themselves; with Serena being the only exception.
* In the original Japanese version, Bonnie refers to herself in the third person. This is also carried over to the English dub on some occasions.

* The color scheme of Bonnie's hair and clothes seems to match that of a [[Shiny Pokémon|Shiny]] {{p|Dedenne}}, a Pokémon that she is taking care of.

In animation

History

Pre-series

Bonnie grew up in Lumiose City in the Kalos region with her father, Meyer, and older brother, Clemont. After Clemont became the Gym Leader in their hometown, Bonnie spent most of her time there. Bonnie also loved Pokémon a lot and decided to become a Pokémon Trainer someday.

Pokémon the Series: XY

Before traveling with Ash

Bonnie was first seen with her brother Clemont in Lumiose City. Both were standing outside the Prism Tower when they watched Ash go inside to challenge the Lumiose Gym. When Ash was ejected out of the building, Clemont saved Ash with his Clemontic Gear while Bonnie saved Ash's Pikachu by catching him before he hit the ground. Thinking that he was cute, Bonnie hugged Pikachu, who shocked her in retaliation. Bonnie quickly apologized and explained that she is too young to have her own Pokémon and therefore always becomes excited when she meets one. Though she cannot own a Pokémon, she participates in other activities when she can. When Clemont and Ash had a battle against each other, she refereed the match for them. She later led them to Professor Sycamore's lab when Froakie was injured by Team Rocket.

In Lumiose City Pursuit!, Bonnie met Professor Sycamore's Garchomp and played with the professor's other Pokémon, before Team Rocket infiltrated the lab. Bonnie tagged along with Ash and Clemont to help free the enraged Garchomp from the machine controlling her, and Bonnie watched her brother use one of his inventions to break into the Prism Tower.

As Ash's traveling companion

In A Battle of Aerial Mobility!, Bonnie and Clemont officially decided to accompany Ash on his journey through Kalos. Later in the episode, the group encountered a wild Dedenne. Bonnie asked Clemont to allow her to keep Dedenne, and Ash agreed. Bonnie tried to offer a Berry to Dedenne, but a wild Fletchling stole the Berry, scaring off Dedenne in the process. She later watched with her brother as Ash caught the Fletchling. After it was caught, Bonnie scolded Fletchling for stealing Dedenne's food but quickly forgave the Pokémon. Dedenne was later seen following Bonnie and the others.

Bonnie and Clemont

Then, in A Shockingly Cheeky Friendship!, Bonnie met the Dedenne from the previous episode when he stole the food she was trying to feed to Pikachu and Fletchling. She begged Clemont to capture him for her, but Dedenne forced the group to chase him in several holes in the ground, which caused Dedenne and Pikachu to get lost together. Eventually, Pikachu and Dedenne returned, but a previous encounter with Team Rocket left Dedenne exhausted to the point of fainting, much to Bonnie's horror. After Dedenne was rejuvenated by one of Clemont's inventions, he bonded with Clemont and helped defeat Team Rocket. Afterward, Dedenne allowed Clemont to capture him so that Bonnie could keep him in her satchel.

In From A to Z!, Bonnie discovered a strange, green Pokémon (unbeknownst to her or her friends, a Zygarde Core) resting in her satchel. The Pokémon panicked upon seeing Bonnie and attempted to escape, to no avail. Although baffled as to what it was, as Ash and Serena's attempts to scan it with their Pokédexes had proven futile, Bonnie nicknamed it Squishy (Japanese: プニちゃん Puni-chan) in the absence of a species name, dead set on looking after it. Unfortunately, Squishy was quickly lost because of a Dodrio stampede caused by Sawyer's Grovyle. Although they quickly caught up to it, it had been captured by a group of Team Flare Grunts led by Celosia. Ash and Sawyer were able to rescue Squishy from Team Flare, Bonnie catching it after it was dropped by Celosia's Drapion.

Later, Bonnie was unable to get Squishy to eat, not understanding why until it crawled over to a rock to rest and absorb sunlight. Afterward, when it saw Terminus Cave on Serena's Town Map, it attacked the device, apparently thinking it was a portal to the cave; as a result, the group decided that was their next destination. That night, Squishy, detecting that Celosia was still searching for it, woke the group. The group once again defended it, Serena and Clemont falling back to escape with Bonnie and Squishy as Ash and Sawyer covered their escape. However, Bonnie lost her balance and fell while crossing a river; although she didn't seem hurt, she had lost Squishy again. By the time she reunited with Squishy, it was exhausted from having defended itself against another group of Team Flare Grunts led by Bryony, but it absorbed light to recover, much to Bonnie's relief.

During Meeting at Terminus Cave!, Bonnie brought Squishy back to Terminus Cave, where it started meditating in the water. When Team Flare attacked, Bonnie nearly got hit by Drapion's Pin Missile but was saved by Ash. Greninja eventually recovered Squishy and gave it to Bonnie, but Squishy ultimately decided to battle Team Flare itself. In doing so, Bonnie and her friends learned that Squishy could access stronger forms. In this act of bravery, however, Squishy got separated from the rest of Ash's group, which left Bonnie very worried.

During the events of A Cellular Connection!, Bonnie wanted to go look for Squishy even though Clemont explicitly forbade her from doing so, out of concern that she would get hurt. When the group eventually got chased by a group of wild Toxicroak as a result of Bonnie's recklessness, Bunnelby got hurt saving her from a nasty fall. Bunnelby was admitted to a Pokémon Center, which left Bonnie feeling very guilty about it, and she promptly went to look for the herbs necessary to cure him. By the end of the episode, Bunnelby had recovered. Squishy had overseen Bonnie's efforts, and as a result returned to the group once more, as it believed humans and Pokémon could live together thanks to Bonnie.

Bonnie and Squishy

During the following episodes, Bonnie would often be able to tell whenever Squishy was worried and would sing a song to calm it. During A Keeper for Keeps?, Bonnie's attempts to get Clemont a wife caused a girl to gain interest in him, to her surprise. She was very displeased as she feared this meant Clemont would stop caring for her. She made several attempts to break them up, all of which backfired. At the end of the episode, however, Clemont revealed that he intended to continue looking after Bonnie. Having learned nothing from the whole ordeal, Bonnie immediately resumed her attempts to get Clemont a wife.

During the events of Championing a Research Battle!, she was the one who told Diantha about Ash and Greninja's unique transformation. Later on, she would be the one to dub the form "Ash-Greninja".

After watching Ash at the Lumiose Conference, Bonnie was shocked when Squishy fled after the stadium was attacked by weird vines. In the following episode, despite the protests of Blaziken Mask, she went after Squishy along with Clemont and Serena. After she finally senses exactly where Squishy was, she was amazed when it transformed into a Zygarde to confront the one under Team Flare's control. In Coming Apart at the Dreams!, She watched as Squishy and Z2 were battling each other throughout Lumiose City until the former was subdued by the latter. She sensed Squishy's pain and fell to her knees and after she stood back up, she was rescued by Blaziken Mask's Mega Blaziken when one of the giant roots almost attacked her. Despite Blaziken Mask's attempt to comfort her, she couldn't help but scream out as she kept feeling Squishy's pain.

In The Right Hero for the Right Job!, Bonnie kept trying to reach out to Squishy, who in return attacked her with vines. After Blaziken Mask took a hit for her, a desperate Bonnie began to tear up and, with no other options left, began singing Squishy's song. This managed to snap Squishy out of its mind control, and Bonnie was overjoyed when Squishy came to her side. Soon after, however, Squishy left after it sensed Z2 being freed from Team Flare's control. In the following episode, Bonnie followed Squishy who searched for Z2. Z2 initially was very skeptical and hostile to Squishy and Bonnie, but Bonnie reached out to Z2 and it allowed Bonnie to carry it. After that, Bonnie, along with Squishy, Z2, and Blaziken Mask were brought along in the helicopter with Ash, Alain, Clemont, and Malva, who's chasing after the Giant Rock.

For most of the fight with the Giant Rock, Bonnie stayed with Squishy and Z2 on the sidelines watching the event with Mairin and Serena who was tasked to protect the two young girls. In Forming a More Perfect Union!, after a devastating attack from the Giant Rock, Bonnie and Clemont finally discovered the true identity of Blaziken Mask as their father, whose mask fell off during the attack. When Squishy and Z2 both left her to stop the Giant Rock for good, Bonnie tried to chase them but she was stopped by Meyer. Soon after, Squishy and Z2 joined hands and transformed into Zygarde's Perfect Forme, and Bonnie was shown to be very excited, cheering the Legendary Pokémon stopping Lysandre, destroying the Giant Rock, and restoring Kalos's environment to normal. However, after reverting into the cores, both Squishy and Z2 had to leave her, as they were slightly exhausted from the battle and required some rest. Before leaving, Squishy expressed its deep gratitude towards Bonnie for protecting it all this time and showing it that humans and Pokémon may have hope and determination to never give up. As Squishy and Z2 fade away, Bonnie tearfully proclaimed her love to the Legendary Pokémon once again.

Bonnie and Clemont with Cilan

In Battling With a Clean Slate!, Bonnie helped Ash, Serena, and her father clean up the gym to prepare for the gym's reopening. At Professor Sycamore's lab, she and the others helped Mairin prepare for the welcome party for Alain. Bonnie made a decoration of Squishy and said that she missed him, wondering what he was up to ever since the Team Flare incident ended. Ash reassured that Squishy was doing fine, and Bonnie agreed. The next day, she watched the Gym battle between Alvin and Clembot, which ended with Alvin being the victor. After the Gym battle, Professor Sycamore gave medals to Bonnie and Dedenne, as well as Ash, Serena, Clemont, Mairin, Alain, and all of their Pokémon, for all of their heroic efforts against Team Flare. The group then posed for a photo. At night, she watched the fireworks and Prism Tower lighting up with Ash, Serena, and Clemont.

In Facing the Needs of the Many!, Bonnie went after Xerosic along with Ash, Serena, and Ash's Greninja to rescue her brother Clemont from Xerosic, but when they got there, Clemont was being put under control by Xerosic. After Xerosic was arrested by Officer Jenny, Bonnie reunited with Squishy and Zygarde, who told the gang that Zygarde needed Greninja's powers as Ash-Greninja. After Greninja left with Squishy and Zygarde, Bonnie made a promise to Squishy that once she becomes a trainer, she will go on another adventure with Squishy in the future.

In Till We Compete Again!, during Ash's video call to his mother and Professor Oak, Delia tells Bonnie, Clemont, and Serena they are free to stop by Pallet Town sometime for a visit. After the video call, Bonnie realizes that their Kalos journey was coming to a close. Bonnie was upset, in which she barely ate anything and claimed she had too many sweets earlier. Clemont reminded her not to do so before meals. Later, Professor Sycamore, Alain, and Mairin stop by to bid them a final farewell before the gang heads to the airport. After Professor Sycamore, Alain, and Mairin left, Ash and the others head to the airport, which caused Bonnie to be sad again.

When the gang arrived at the airport, the Pokémon started bidding many farewells to each other. However, Dedenne was unable to bear the goodbyes and runs off around the airport. After Bonnie found Dedenne, she tells him that they need to say their goodbyes. She explains to Dedenne that Ash and Serena need to go on and pursue their dreams, the same as she wants to become a Trainer someday with her partner Dedenne. She told him that she will hopefully defeat Serena and Ash in a Pokémon Showcase and Pokémon Battle respectively, and have a gym battle against her brother Clemont. Dedenne jumps back into Bonnie's arms, although still upset, but understands what Bonnie is saying and begins to cheer up along with her.

After Serena's flight left for Hoenn, Clemont and Ash have one final battle before Ash's flight leaves for Kanto, just like how their Kalos adventure all started. Bonnie watches the battle between Clemont's Bunnelby and Ash's Pikachu. After the battle during the sunset, she and Clemont watch as Ash's flight leaves Kalos for Kanto. Later, Bonnie and Clemont return to Prism Tower while she recalls all the amazing Pokémon she has met and befriended throughout her journey with Clemont, Ash, and Serena, such as having a Flabébé in Bonnie's ponytail in To Find a Fairy Flower!, meeting a Lapras and taking care of it along with The Lapras Defense Crew (Jay, Heidi, and Kye) in Bonnie for the Defense!, looking after and having fun with a Tyrunt from the fossil research lab in The Tiny Caretaker!, and finally Squishy. She also recalls playing Ninja along with Dedenne and Pikachu, proposing to Lilia to be a keeper for her brother Clemont, and finally promising Squishy that she will go on a brand new adventure with him as soon as she becomes a Trainer someday.

In XYS06, Clemont attended a fishing competition and brought Bonnie along with him. A short while later, they met Cilan, a Pokémon Connoisseur. Cilan told Bonnie and Clemont that he wanted to visit Prism Tower, so she and her brother accompanied him there. When they decided to take the subway to get there, Bonnie, however, ended up boarding the train all by herself and she did not realize that the train she boarded had a problem. Cilan and Clemont both managed to rescue Bonnie from the runaway malfunctioned train. However, just before the two reached the train, a wild Eelektross got the train to move again with Bonnie still on board. After she got rescued before the train crashed, they took Cilan to check out Prism Tower before he split up with Bonnie and Clemont.

Pokémon Journeys: The Series

Bonnie reappeared in The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!, meeting Goh as he was trying to catch a Froakie. Once Goh had caught Froakie, Bonnie accompanied him to the Lumiose Gym, where they reunited with Ash and Clemont. Seeing Ash's Pokémon team, Bonnie instantly took a liking to Dracovish and made friends with it. She later observed a brief Double Battle between Ash and Clemont.

In Taking Two For The Team!, Bonnie joined Clemont and Goh in watching Ash's World Coronation Series battle against Drasna. She also revealed that Clemont had once battled Drasna as well, although Clemont didn't want to be reminded of it, due to how utterly he had been defeated. After the battle, Bonnie asked Drasna to marry her brother, much to Clemont's embarrassment.

Bonnie was seen in a flashback in Reuniting for the First Time!.

In Paring Pokémon While Parrying! and Partners in Time!, Bonnie and Clemont were seen watching Ash's Masters Eight Tournament match against Leon.

Other appearances

Bonnie made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of I Choose You! alongside Clemont.

Character

Bonnie trying to find a wife for her brother

Bonnie is a young and cheerful girl who is always excited to meet new Pokémon. At times, she gets too invasive with Pokémon, similar to Iris, Burgundy, and Bianca, causing them to attack her. She is very proud of her brother's accomplishments as an inventor but sometimes criticizes him if his inventions do not work. She tries to find a wife for Clemont, first seen when she asks Viola and Jessica if they could marry her brother. This causes him to get embarrassed and remove her with his Aipom arm. She claims she does this because she can't take care of him forever.

Bonnie seems to see Serena as a big sister, and they actively take part in several activities together, like baking Poké Puffs or clothes shopping. They also sleep together and play games as well. The majority of the time, if she isn't clinging on to Clemont, she's attached herself to Serena. On the rare occasion, she's scared or troubled and Clemont isn't nearby, Bonnie will hug Serena for comfort. She is also one of the few characters aware that Serena has a crush on Ash.

Bonnie doesn't interact with Ash as often as she does with Serena or her brother, but it is evident that she looks upon him favorably, and respects him. She almost always supports Ash in battle, the only exception being when he battles her brother. Ash, in turn, cares for Bonnie like a little sister and does his best to help protect her, though he is quite lenient about it compared to Clemont. Being relatively immature himself, Ash is usually the first to support Bonnie's pleas for fun activities, even when Clemont is reluctant. She also views Ash as being quite dense, being unable to see the obvious affection Serena has for him.

Bonnie dislikes feeling left out. In Battles in the Sky!, she got upset because she was too small to glide in a wingsuit and in A Stealthy Challenge!, where she naively asks Ash's newly evolved Frogadier to change back into Froakie so she could see his evolution, in which Clemont replied that her request was impossible. Though she cannot own her own Pokémon, she participates in things that she can still do, such as refereeing unofficial matches. She also asks her brother permission to "keep" Pokémon that she one day wants to train when she is old enough to be a Trainer. She enjoys taking care of her friend's Pokémon and particularly likes brushing their fur, similar to a groomer. She always likes to be able to participate in the same activities the rest of the group are taking part in, and not being able to (such as in Battles in the Sky! when she was denied entry to the indoor sky diving facility), or otherwise being unable to get her way, causes her to pout. These accomplishments may seem small but they are a way for Bonnie to occupy herself and continuously learn more about being a Trainer.

Bonnie's drawing of the group's Pokémon

Bonnie is shown to be innocently ignorant of scary things, seeing them more as being 'interesting' or 'fun'. This is seen in Seeking Shelter From the Storm! and Scary Hospitality!, where, when facing a supernatural phenomenon that scares her elder traveling companions, Bonnie is seen happily looking around for the source of it. That's not to say that Bonnie can't be scared. Though she has no problem watching Pokémon battles, Bonnie does not like bullying or one-sided violence and is often seen burying her face in her brother's or Serena's clothes in such situations.

All in all, Bonnie is still a child. In Battling on Thin Ice!, she became tired easily and had to be put to bed early. In A Jolting Switcheroo!, she began to cry after she lost track of Dedenne. Ash and Serena had to help calm her down and encouraged her not to give up. In Splitting Heirs!, it was revealed that she dislikes carrots. In Under the Pledging Tree!, Bonnie drew a portrait of the gang's Pokémon during the Coumarine City Pledging Tree Festival.

Bonnie's love for Pokémon can be seen in her clothing and other gear, having a Tyrantrum pajamas, a Slowbro swimsuit, a Snubbull apron set and Delibird and Slurpuff winter outfits. She also sleeps in a Shellder tent.

Pokémon

Due to not being a Pokémon Trainer yet, Bonnie is unable to raise her own Pokémon. Nevertheless, she has befriended a variety of Pokémon during her travels. She is also taking care of Clemont's Dedenne until she becomes a Pokémon Trainer.

Despite this, Bonnie has been in a couple of Pokémon battles, such as Team Rocket. When she battles, she usually provides support if she was teaming up with her friends and would use either long or distance attacks.

This listing is of the Pokémon Bonnie is taking care of, befriended, and temporarily used in the animated series:

Later when Team Rocket attacked she helped by using Aromatherapy, soothing them into not attacking. By the end of the episode, she reunited with Florence and said goodbye to Bonnie.

She reappeared in Till We Compete Again!, during a flashback.

None of Flabébé's moves are known.

Lapras
A wild Lapras

Bonnie was introduced to Lapras by Heidi, Jay, and Kye, who had sworn to protect it after they found it all alone and hurt in a lake.

After playing with Lapras, the children discovered its body was feeling hot. It was briefly treated by Clemont, but he suggested they should bring a Nurse Joy as Lapras had a serious fever. Nurse Joy arrived and quickly made Lapras recover. After healing, Lapras started to cry out for the sky. Clemont figured it wanted to return to its friends in the sea. Although the children were initially against the idea of letting Lapras return to its natural habitat, they decided that if they truly loved it, they would help in returning it.

Moments later, Team Rocket appeared, wanting to steal Lapras. While Ash, Clemont, and Serena fought them, the children ensured Lapras was guided safely to the sea. Although it got confused by James's Inkay's Psybeam, Heidi made it remember the good times they had with it. After this, its friends quickly came to help it and froze Team Rocket with Ice Beam. Afterward, Lapras said goodbye to the Lapras Defense Force as it returned to sea with its friends.

When Team Rocket let Bonnie fall from their balloon, Tyrunt evolved into Tyrantrum and saved Bonnie before sending Team Rocket blasting off again. Afterward Bonnie asked Clemont to catch Tyrantrum, but he failed due to it already belonging to someone.

Phantump Shiny
A wild Shiny Phantump

While Team Rocket tried to get payback on the Phantump, the Shiny Phantump eventually reunited with its group and led a counter-attack that sent them blasting off.

Pichu came out of the bag and used Thunder Shock on its surroundings. It was calmed by Ash's Pikachu when he shocked it with Thunderbolt. Ash and his friends then went to look for Pichu's original Trainer and Dedenne.

While the group was on their search for them, Bonnie and Pikachu decided to care for Pichu for the time being by giving it food and playing with it. Clemont then came with the idea to use one of his inventions to lure Dedenne to them. The invention eventually exploded, but the explosion was noticed by Lyn's older sister Lena who quickly rushed to the scene, as she, in turn, was looking for Lyn. Lena was happy to find Pichu with the group and joined them to find Lyn and Dedenne. The group eventually found them in a grape orchard, about to be attacked by wild Beedrill.

Trivia

  • Bonnie is the youngest female protagonist in the Pokémon animated series.
  • Bonnie serves as an antithesis to Brock's running gag as she is the one who requests any older female character that the group encounters to marry Clemont and is subsequently removed by him instead of the other way around.
    • One noticeable difference is that Bonnie does not ask any Nurse Joys or Officer Jennys to marry Clemont; these are the most common targets of Brock's affection.
  • In the original Japanese version, Bonnie refers to herself in the third person. This is also carried over to the English dub on some occasions.
