Latoya Parker
Latoya as Gligirl

Latoya Parker (Japanese: ユウカ Yūka) is a character of the day who appeared in The Superhero Secret.

Latoya's father, Mr. Parker, is the owner of a toy store that sells figurines of the town's favorite superhero, Gligarman. Ash and his friends later realized Mr. Parker himself was Gligarman, who donned a purple costume to fight crime and—perhaps more importantly—to boost sales in his shop. After he became too old to effectively carry out his duties, Latoya took over the role, under the moniker of Gligirl.
