Misty is one of the heroic Gym Leaders in Pokémon Special. She met Red] while attempting to rescue her Gyarados from Koga of Team Rocket.
Red saved Misty's Gyarados, and Misty and Red ended up spending a lot of time together. Red eventually left, although Misty asked him to stay and train some more.
Red wanted to teach his Pokémon Surf, but the TM he tried to acquire was destroyed. So Misty traded him her Gyarados for Red's Krabby. Red still has Misty's Gyarados in his party to this day.
In Johto, during the second Team Rocket crisis, Suicune chose Misty to be its partner.
In Pokémon Special, Misty lives in a large mansion and is looked after by a hoarde of maids.
