Iono was initially revealed to the public on October 12th, 2022, in a video uploaded to all official Pokémon YouTube channels titled '''Guess Iono’s Partner Pokémon!'''<ref name=IonoTeaser>[https://web.archive.org/web/20231219171537/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9HAaHc3wnc&t=37s Guess Iono's Partner Pokémon!]</ref> with the intent to tease the reveal of her [[partner Pokémon]], {{p|Bellibolt}}, just two days later in '''Meet Bellibolt.'''<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkfN-jyEcrI Meet Bellibolt]</ref> An announcement of her reveal was made just one day prior, with the Japanese account including a silhouetted tease of her design.<ref name=IonoReveal>[https://web.archive.org/web/20231219170641/https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/1579819355851743233 Tweet about Iono's reveal.]</ref> In the videos, she dances around animatedly, spouts her usual catchphrases, and baits the audience to catch the full reveal, letting slip that she chose to do so to rack up the on her follow-up.

Her voice in these reveals went uncredited for a whole year until the release of ''[[PPW02|Breathe In]]'', which, in re-using audio from this animation for a short cameo featuring Iono, confirms her voice actress here was [[Fairouz Ai]].<ref name=GameVOCredit>[https://twitter.com/Lewchube/status/1714648455115628990 Video comparing the same voice for Iono used in PP02]</ref>
