:"Her father is a fisher, and her mother works in the marketplace.

- Wyndon Stadium
- "I can tell you've grown far stronger since you faced me in Hulbury Stadium."
- "I've got to hand it to our undefeated Champion. He's got a proper eye for talent, too."

Trivia
- Nessa's uniform number is "049", which can be read in Japanese as goroawase for 泳ぐ oyogu, meaning "to swim".
- Nessa's Drednaw changes gender between battles. In her Gym battle and while cooperating with the player in a Max Raid Battle, Drednaw is male. In her tournament battle and all future rematches, her Drednaw is female. This is most likely because she has two Drednaw, one that can Gigantamax and one that cannot.
