Dawn (ヒカリ Hikari) is a Pokémon Trainer who hails from Twinleaf Town in the Sinnoh region. She is the daughter of Johanna, a Pokémon Coordinator, and competes in both official Pokémon League competitions around the world, as well as Pokémon Contests. She is the current Champion of the Sinnoh Pokémon League, having defeated Cynthia for the title several years in the past.

Appearance[]

Dawn is a young woman of petite stature; possessing long blue hair that frames each side of her face—parted in the middle, along with several clumps of hair focused on her forehead. The curtains do indeed match the window here—her eyes are akin to sapphires, just like her hair.

For attire, Dawn wears a black top that covers everything up to the neckline and exposes her midriff; with a pink vest covering this to keep her slightly more warm. For lower clothing, Dawn's legs are covered by black yoga pants held up with a flashy looking belt—finishing her attire is a pair of black shoes. 

Personality[]

History[]

Dawn began her journey when she was a child, living in Twinleaf Town with her mother. Dreaming big, even as a child, she set out with her friend Barry, to visit Professor Rowan, a Pokémon Researcher from a town over. She received her first Pokémon, Piplup, from the Professor when he realises the dedication she and Barry have, willing to travel to Sandgem Town despite lacking any Pokémon.

During the course of Dawn's journey, collecting badges to compete in the Pokémon League, as well as Ribbons so she could further her ambitions to compete in the Sinnoh Grand Festival, Dawn has many conflicts with the insane Team Galactic and its leader, Cyrus. Making it her mission to stop them, she eventually gains a bond with the Pokémon of the Lake, particularly Mesprit, the resident Lake Guardian of Lake Verity, which is near her home. She encountered Cynthia, the Sinnoh League Champion, along the way, and the woman took a particular interest in the girl, seeming intent on grooming her into a powerful challenger.

Everything culminated when Dawn confronted Cyrus at Spear Pillar, where he summoned Dialga and Palkia through the Red Chain. Angered at the disruption, Giratina made it's presence known, dragging Cyrus into the Distortion World, and Dawn and Cynthia quickly followed after it, making their way through the strange dimension with the help of the Lake Pokémon. Confronting Cyrus one last time, Dawn defeated him with the efforts of her Pokémon, and then proceeded to battle and capture Giratina, calming it's rage.

As her final test, she made her way to the Pokémon League, defeating her opponents and ensuring her spot in the finals, defeating her final opponent, which gave her a chance to battle the Elite Four of the Sinnoh Region. Dawn proved to be a worthy opponent, and defeated the Elite Four as well, and finally had her match against the Champion, Cynthia. The woman proved to Dawn's toughest opponent yet, and the battle was truly difficult, wiring down to one remaining Pokémon for each, however, Dawn secured both victory, and her spot as the Sinnoh League Champion. It was the spirit she showed not only in the Pokémon League but against Team Galatic that led to Cynthia eventually taking Dawn on as her apprentice of sorts, giving the girl special training to mold her into a worthy Champion.

Equipment[]

Bag (Japanese: バッグ bag): Like nearly all traveling trainers, Dawn carries a bag.

Pokedex Pt Fem

Dawn's Pokédex

Pokédex (Japanese: ポケモン図鑑 illustrated Pokémon encyclopedia): A digital encyclopedia created originally by Professor Oak, the concept was shared with multiple researchers across the world, who began to manufacture these and give them to select individuals. Dawn received hers from Professor Rowan as a ten-year old child, tasked to help him with his Pokémon Research by recording as many Pokémon as she could into the device. As an adult, she rarely uses the Pokédex except with new Pokémon she has never seen before, as her many years of experience as a trainer, and tutelage from Cynthia, have given Dawn a vast array of knowledge about Pokémon that can rival several researchers.

Quotes[]

  • "Effort in battle is a representation of the love between the Trainer and their Pokémon."
  • "No trainer's journey is meant to be easy. There will be obstacles ahead; difficulties you have to overcome if you want to continue and realise your dreams. You must embrace pain, and burn it as fuel for your journey."

Trivia[]

  • Dawn follows the history of the Dawn from Pokémon Platinum.
  • Dawn is the first known Champion to own a Legendary Pokémon, however, she is not the first known member of a battle related facility to do this, as it seems to be common practice for Frontier Brain's to capture legendary Pokémon, most notably the Pyramid King Brandon, who uses the entire Regi Trio.
  • Dawn's battle theme is a remix of the final boss theme in the original Mystery Dungeon.
