Neesha (Japanese: スイート Sweet) is a supporting character who appeared in a number of Pokémon movies. She is one of the Pokémon Trainers who was invited by Mewtwo to New Island.

In the movies

Mewtwo Strikes Back and Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution

Neesha left Old Shore Wharf on the back of her Dewgong despite Miranda's warnings. She braved the storm conditions and was one of the few Trainers to reach New Island. Neesha was one of the Trainers who battled Mewtwo—rather, its Blastoise clone—using Shellshocker, her Blastoise. However, Mewtwo's cloned Blastoise easily defeated it with a Rapid Spin attack. Neesha attended to Shellshocker as Ash and his Charizard challenged Mewtwo's Charizardtwo. Despite her efforts, all of her Pokémon were soon caught by Mewtwo's Mewtwo Balls and later cloned.

Neesha watched from the sidelines as the original and cloned Pokémon fought endlessly while Mewtwo fought Mew. Ash eventually intervened and was caught in the crossfire, leading Mewtwo to have a revelation and end the challenge. As a result, Mewtwo wiped everyone's memories, including those of Neesha, regarding the events on New Island, and then returned them and their Pokémon to Old Shore Wharf. Later, Neesha joined Officer Jenny and the other Trainers on the pier to watch the storm miraculously clear up.

Neesha reappeared in Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution, a remake of Mewtwo Strikes Back, where she played the same role.

Character

Neesha is a calm and approachable person. She carries herself confidently, though she also does not show off. Neesha's streak of determination was most evident during her battle against Mewtwo.
