Erica
- If you were looking for the Kanto Gym Leader, see Erika.
Erica (Japanese: エリコ Eriko) is a Pokémon Coordinator who appeared in the anime.
Erica's first appearance was in Mean with Envy. She and her boyfriend Joshua were training for the Pacifidlog Town Contest. Erica hoped that she and Joshua would be the first couple to become winners in the Contest.
Much to Erica's chagrin, May began training with Joshua. They were only doing so as friends, but Erica refused to believe May's story. She was convinced that May was going to steal Joshua away from her.
During the contest in Pacifidlog Jam, Joshua faced off against May. Erica hoped that Joshua would defeat her, but she was stunned when May ended up defeating him. Now more than ever, Erica wanted to defeat May. However, when May defeated Erica, the Coordinator had a change of heart. She told May that she was jealous of her, and that she shouldn't have been.
She and Joshua both had cameos watching May on TV during the Hoenn Grand Festival.
Pokémon
Erica's Jynx was first seen in Mean with Envy where its owner was trying to show it off, to show that Jynx was much more cuter than May's Skitty to Joshua. It was used when Team Rocket tried to steal Ash's Pikachu and Snorunt and with the help of Ash, May, Brock, Max and Joshua, they were able to send Team Rocket blasting off. It was used in the Pacifidlog Town Contest in the Appeals Round where it combined Blizzard and Psychic. After getting through to the second round along with May and Joshua, it went up against The Jester and Meowth in Pacifidlog Jam which Jessie was disqualified for cheating. In the finals Jynx battled May and her Skitty which Jynx lost earning May her Fifth Ribbon.
Jynx's known moves are Hyper Beam, Blizzard, Psychic and Lovely Kiss. | ||
