'''Penelope''' (Japanese: '''プルミエ''' ''Premier'') is a [[character of the day]] who appeared in ''[[XY013|Kindergarten Chaos!]]''. 

She is a {{tc|Nursery Aide|kindergarten teacher}} who brings [[wild Pokémon]] she befriends to give her preschoolers experience with Pokémon. One day, though, she was lucky enough to meet a group of [[Pokémon Trainer]]s; namely, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. She challenged Ash to a battle when they locked eyes with the condition that Ash comes with her if she wins, using Sylveon against [[Ash's Froakie]]. Although Froakie put up a good fight against the Intertwining Pokémon, Sylveon infatuated Froakie with {{m|Attract}}, rendering him defenseless against {{m|Draining Kiss}}. As a result, Ash lost and had to accompany her to the kindergarten. Ash enthusiastically allowed the children to pet {{AP|Pikachu}} and encouraged {{an|Serena}}, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}} to let their Pokémon meet the children.

All the children happily interacted with the group's Pokémon with the exception of a boy named [[Randall]], who was terrified of Pokémon due to a previous negative experience. Soon, {{TRT}} arrived disguised as a volunteer entertainment troupe, stole Pikachu and Sylveon and drove off in a truck. Randall and Froakie were accidentally taken along for the ride and Ash clung to the back of the truck in an effort to rescue the stolen Pokémon. Penelope decided to follow the truck once she realized Randall was missing, with Serena, Clemont and Bonnie coming with her; she was led to the truck by {{AP|Fletchling}}. By the time they arrived at Team Rocket's hideout, Ash had already broken Pikachu and Sylveon out of the glass cages with Froakie and Randall's help and sent Team Rocket blasting off.

<!--Do NOT add Sylveon's gender as female. Meowth did not fall in love with it due to the MOVE Atrract. He was attracted to the Sylveon. The move Attract and the act of attraction are two ENTIRELY different things. And the dub calling Froakie "he" does not count.-->

|desc={{p|Sylveon}} is Penelope's partner Pokémon. It proved to be a skilled battler when it went up against [[Ash's Froakie]]. It was able to defeat the Bubble Frog Pokémon by [[infatuation|infatuating]] it with Attract and finishing it off with Draining Kiss.

Later, it was stolen along with {{AP|Pikachu}} by {{TRT}}, but was rescued by Ash, Froakie, and [[Randall]] and helped the three free Pikachu. Whilst Ash battled Team Rocket, it protected Randall from {{TP|Jessie|Pumpkaboo}} and {{TP|James|Inkay}}'s attacks. Immediately afterwards, it was reunited with its Trainer.

Sylveon was confirmed as female in the English dub only, as a result of confirming Froakie as male.

Sylveon's known moves are {{m|Fairy Wind}}, {{m|Moonblast}}, {{m|Attract}}, and {{m|Draining Kiss}}.}}
