Liko's Hatenna (Japanese: リコのミブリム Liko's Mibrim) is the first Pokémon Liko caught in the Galar region, and her second overall.

History

Hatenna and Liko

Hatenna first appeared in HZ021, where she was seeking shelter from a storm in a forest on Route 3. Finding a safe spot in a mountain hut, she fell asleep in a box. When Liko, Roy, and Friede also sought shelter in the hut the following day, they found Hatenna. Liko felt that something wasn't right with Hatenna and brought her to the Brave Asagi for Mollie to check out. Mollie deduced that nothing was wrong with Hatenna physically, and that she was likely just feeling down. Liko volunteered to look after Hatenna, but the Calm Pokémon ended up running away after sensing Dot express strong emotions. Liko, Roy, and Dot sought Hatenna all over the airship, with Liko eventually finding her on the observation deck. She told Hatenna that she also liked to come to the same place because it's quiet and peaceful. Thanks to Liko's calm emotions, Hatenna started to feel comfortable around her and slept in her room for the night. The next day, Liko, Roy, and Friede brought Hatenna back to where they had found her. She started to hesitantly leave, but Sprigatito convinced her to not go. Jumping into Liko's arms, Hatenna expressed her newfound desire of coming with her, which Liko happily agreed to, catching her with a Poké Ball received from Friede.

Personality and characteristics

Hatenna, as true to her species, can pick up the emotions of both people and Pokémon. Hatenna has also shown to be relaxed when she is around calm emotions, but can get overwhelmed when people or Pokémon show strong emotions, especially if they are arguing. In addition, Hatenna is shy and sensitive, even when others tried to interact with her. Due to being shy around others, Hatenna would initially hide away whenever she tried to interact with people or Pokémon. However, Hatenna has slowly opened up in interacting with others, as seen in HZ022 when she joined with some wild Pokémon in the Galar Mine in eating snacks.

Liko and Hatenna quickly bonded after meeting each other, as she became unwilling to leave her side when she attempted to return her to the wild. Her closeness to Liko has been shown when she would rest or sit in her hood. Hatenna also feels calm around Liko because her Trainer doesn't usually show strong emotions, such as sorrow or anger. In addition, Hatenna formed a close friendship with Sprigatito, as it encouraged her to stay with Liko and immediately shook hands with the Grass Cat Pokémon when they became teammates.

Trivia

• Hatenna is the first Generation VIII Pokémon owned by a female main character.
