'''Sandra''' (Japanese: '''ホシカ''' ''Hoshika'') is a recurring character from the {{pkmn|anime}}. She lives with her mother, [[Savannah]], in [[Rubello Town]].

==History==
As she was out with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} in ''[[AG077|A Fan with a Plan]]'', [[Savannah]] was surprised to see her young daughter doing the shopping, though appreciated the gesture. The following day, while {{an|May}} and Savannah were practicing for the [[Rubello Town]] Contest, the boys met Sandra while she was out grocery shopping again. They later returned to the [[Pokémon Center]], where May alerted Sandra and the boys to {{TRT}} who had just stolen her and Savannah's [[Ribbon]]s. Sandra sprung into action, narrowly escaping a hit from {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}}'s {{m|Psybeam}}. Together, she and her mom ordered {{p|Lairon}} to send Team Rocket blasting off with a {{m|Water Pulse}}.

In ''[[AG078|Cruisin' for a Losin' ]]'', Sandra watched from the crowd as her mom competed in the Rubello Contest. She was particularly proud to see her mom use their practiced combinations to advance to the finals. Although Savannah failed to win the Rubello Contest, Sandra remained proud of her mother. 

Sandra and her mom made a cameo appearance as they watched the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]] in ''[[AG122|Deceit and Assist]]''.

==Character==
Because her mom is so busy with being a mother, her duties with the [[Mothers for Pokémon]] club and participating in Contests, Sandra often helps her out by buying groceries and doing chores. She also assists her mom with her Contest strategies. During Savannah's battle with {{an|May}}, it was Sandra's idea to have her mother's {{p|Lairon}} use an {{t|Electric}} [[move]] while [[May's Bulbasaur]] used {{m|Vine Whip}}, thereby {{Status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} it. Sandra is very proud of her mother for winning a {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]], though she doesn't share her mother's same enthusiasm for battling.
