[[File:Old woman BW009.png|thumb|250px|The elder]]

The '''elder''' (Japanese: '''おばば{{tt|様|さま}}''' ''Old woman'') is a recurring character that first appears in ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]''. She is voiced by 水田わさび ''[[Wasabi Mizuta]]'' in Japanese and [[Kayzie Rogers]] in English.

She is the matriarch of the [[Dragon Village]]. Not much is known about the elder, as she has not made any appearances outside of {{an|Iris}}'s flashbacks. It is revealed in a flashback that she was the one who gave {{an|Iris}} her {{TP|Iris|Axew}} with the intent to develop his skills in Pokémon battles. She believed that Iris had the skills necessary in order to raise Axew to one day become a strong {{p|Haxorus}}.

The elder appears in yet another one of Iris's flashbacks in [[BW030]] where she sees Iris off on her journey to become a {{t|Dragon}} master. She tells Iris that the journey will bring a lot of different experiences, both good and bad, but they will be important for the growth of her and Axew. In [[BW036]] the elder is seen in another of Iris's flashbacks watching the development of the tournament in the Dragon Village. She witnesses Iris's battle against the Dragon Master [[Drayden]] and seems satisfied with her performance. It is unknown what type of connection she has with Drayden.
