Alexa first appeared in [[BW134]] of the {{pkmn|anime}} alongside a {{p|Gogoat}} and {{p|Helioptile}}.
{{main|Alexa (anime)}}
In the anime, Alexa debuted in ''[[BW134|The Journalist from Another Region!]]''. Alexa is a journalist from [[Lumiose City]] and a major supporting character in the [[anime]]. She met Ash and his friends during ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]'' and returned at various points in Ash's journey through Kalos in ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''.
{{-}}


When Helioptile bumped into {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} on [[Minori Island]], Ash used his {{AP|Pikachu}} to battle it until Alexa arrived with Gogoat and mentioned that the Helioptile is her's. Since both of Alexa's Pokémon were unnative to the region at the time, Ash's Pokédex could not recognize them. Alexa then introduced herself and mentioned that she came all the way from the [[Kalos]] region to write an article about the [[Harvest Festival]] which was the tradition of Minori Island. While there, she learned about a [[Pokémon Sumo tournament]] that was going to take place there. When Ash was bumped by [[Yukiya]] who became Ash's new rival for the tournament, Alexa comforted him. At the end of the tournament, when Ash had won, Alexa had filmed the tournament, including Ash giving Yukiya an apple after he lost. After the tournament was officially finished, Alexa decided to travel with the group.
==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Alexa Adventures.png|thumb|right|130px|Alexa in Pokémon Adventures]]
Alexa makes her first appearance in the {{MangaArc|X & Y}}, where she goes to [[Vaniville Town]] with Viola to interview up-and-coming {{tc|Sky Trainer}} {{adv|Y}}. Noting that she used to be a {{p|Rhyhorn}} racer in the past, Alexa wonders why Y decided to switch from the land to the sky. Y refuses to answer and states that she hates reporters for causing her friend {{adv|X}} to become a shut-in and refuse to leave his house despite his friends' constant efforts. Before the interview can continue, the legendary Pokémon {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}} appear and begin destroying the town while fighting each other. When Viola wonders if the two are actually even Pokémon, Alexa states that she isn't sure either but notes that according to a 3,000 year old legend, Xerneas and Yveltal appear every 1,000 years.


She will also appear in [[BW135]], [[BW136]], and with {{p|Noivern}} in [[BW137]].
At Lumiose City, Alexa finishes up her report on the Vaniville Town incident. She wonders why the news has only been reporting the incident as a "strange explosion" and completely ignored the Legendary Pokémon. She gets a call from Viola, who had been injured, much to Alexa's surprise. Viola informs Alexa that Team Flare is behind the incidents all over Kalos and reveals that Y and her friends are on their way to Lumiose City. Alexa then goes to Prism Tower to have an interview with [[Professor Sycamore]] concerning the Vaniville Town incident. By the time she arrives, the [[Lumiose Press editor-in-chief]] has already beaten Alexa to the interview and finished it as well. After Sycamore leaves, Alexa hands her notes of the Vaniville Town incident to the editor-in-chief, who promptly burns them. The editor-in-chief then attacks Alexa with a {{p|Pangoro}}, but she is saved at the last minute by {{adv|X}}. The editor-in-chief continues battling X and even takes Alexa's {{p|Helioptile|Heli}} hostage. Y and the others take Alexa down to safety, confident that X will get Heli back. Once they get to the ground floor, Alexa realizes that the media is working for a great evil that is deliberately keeping information about the Legendary Pokémon from the public.


X eventually manages to defeat the editor-in-chief's Pokémon and successfully retrieves Heli for Alexa. Alexa thanks the kids for their help and gives them a Lumiose journal from three years ago under the hope that it will somehow help the kids on their journey. She says her goodbyes and takes a cab to {{rt|4|Kalos}} so that she can meet up with Viola again in Santalune City.
Later, Alexa finishes an article, and tell's Viola about how the Ultimate Weapon ended a war 3,000 years ago. But it also ruined the lives of Humans and Pokémon. When Viola wonders if they can can stop it, Alexa tells her "it happened 3,000 years ago". But Viola senses something is bothering Alexa, and ask's what is bothering her. Alexa states "she has a bad feeling about this". Then, Alexa and Viola witness Lysandre announcing to the entire Kalos region about his plans to end all life with the power of the ultimate weapon. Afterward, they, along with Clemont, [[Bonnie]] and [[Yvette]], confront Team Flare at {{rt|10|Kalos}} in order to free the captured Pokémon there. While Viola and Yvette lead the Sky Trainers in the air, Alexa, Clemont, and Bonnie work on destroying the Stone Pillars. However, Malva's Delphox attacks them, but Viola's quick thinking protects both teams from Delphox's attacks. Eventually, both teams succeeded in their mission. After Team Flare is fully defeated, Alexa and her allies go to Lumiose City to congratulate X and his friends on their victory against Team Flare.
