History

Ann and Liko

Ann first appeared in The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One). She met Liko when she arrived at the room they were sharing together. After getting the Pokédex installed on her Rotom Phone, she selected Oshawott to be her first partner Pokémon. The next day, Ann had her first ever Pokémon battle, using Oshawott to battle against Liko's Sprigatito, which was soon called off. One night, Ann spotted Liko looking at her grandmother's pendant and asked about it.

After Liko noticed how close she and Oshawott were compared to how close she was with her Sprigatito, Ann gave her advice. When the time came for a school break, Ann headed home, leaving Liko at the academy.

Ann reappeared in For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!, when she spoke to Liko after she had joined the Rising Volt Tacklers.

In The Door That Never Opens, Ann spoke to Liko when she attended a class online. During the conversation, the two talked about the live stream that Nidothing would do in a few hours.

In The Lonely Hatenna, she contacted Liko and revealed that she had acquired her second Pokémon in the form of her Sandshrew.

In The Wild Pair, Friede and Cap!, Ann spoke with Liko before class and noted that she had caught a Hatenna. Ann appeared again when Liko gave her presentation for class.

In HZ046, Ann arrived at Naranja Academy, having enrolled as a temporary student to train for Terastal Training. After reuniting with Liko, she met Roy and Dot and had a battle with Liko, using her Dewott to battle against Floragato. After a tough battle, Liko emerged victorious.

During her Terastal Training journey, Ann received her challenge, and managed to pass her first exam.

In HZ054, Ann met up again with Liko and her friends and, after being introduced to Terapagos, she spent the day with them. During the return to Naranja Academy, Ann revealed to Liko her real feelings as a Trainer and together they arrived at Mesagoza. In the next episode, Ann stayed with Liko and her friends while they received information that they would participate in a battle against members of Paldea's Elite Four. During the battles, Ann watched the matches with Liko. In HZ056, she watched her friend and Katy's battle against Rika alongside Nemona and Roy.

In HZ057, Ann was seen with the other students during Clavell's speech that began the second part of the Training. Despite this, her Gym challenge was not revealed.

In HZ066, Ann participated in the Course Students Battle Tournament at the Naranja Academy, where she faced Luka. In the next episode, Ann took care of Terapagos while Liko battled Roy, and during the climax of the battle, Ann joined the others in cheering for her friends. After the conclusion of Terastal Training and the tournament, Ann revealed to Liko that she was returning to Kanto to continue her studies at Indigo Academy and that she would like to face Liko again when she is stronger.

Character

Ann and her Pokémon prior to HZ046

Ann is an energetic girl who is very extroverted. She has a habit of being messy, but is shown to be considerate, keeping her mess to herself. She expresses concern and encourages her close friend Liko to try and understand her partner Pokémon.

In The Lonely Hatenna, Ann revealed that she wants to be a Trainer that focuses on battles, while Liko was still figuring out her path at the time. In HZ054, Ann revealed that her main goal was the Pokémon League.

Pokémon

Ann's Pokémon are very close and friendly to each other. Ann is also very attached to her Pokémon, to the point that she considers them the biggest reason she follows through on her dreams.

Despite being a beginner Trainer like Liko, her Dewott managed to stand its ground despite her Pokémon's weakness against Floragato. Ann is also a versatile Trainer, using specific moves on her Pokémon to cover their weaknesses, as analyzed by Rika.
