Crystal (Japanese: クリスタル, abbreviated to クリス Crys) is the seventh main character of the manga series Pokémon Special. Due to a bad fall she took as a child, breaking her arms, she learned to kick Poké Balls with her feet. Although by now her arms have been completely healed, Crystal has retained the habit of kicking her Pokéballs instead of throwing them. She's caught all non-legendary Pokémon for Professor Oak; more than any of the other characters in Pokémon Special.

She later adds Hoenn Pokémon to her collection and apparently begins to work full-time as one of Professor Oak's assistants. Crystal's Pokémon collection is used by Emerald when he goes to the Battle Frontier.

Crystal's special skill, as described by Professor Oak, is Pokémon catching, and she is known as the "catcher" (捕える者).

Pokémon

Her "starter" Pokémon was a Chikorita which escaped from Professor Elm's lab, longing to go on a journey. All of Crystal's party Pokémon have a symbol of a star somewhere on them. Some wear star necklaces or stickers, but her Cubone and Parasect had natural markings in the shape of stars.

The suffix "pyon" of the nicknames of her Pokémon was insisted by her mother, who named everyone except Chikorita.

Here is the list of Crystal's personal Pokémon (updated to the end of GSC Saga), although aside from these she's also captured every single one from Hoenn, Kanto, and Johto, except legendary Pokémon.
