History

Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

Juanita owns a souvenir shop in Eindoak Town that she operates with the assistance of her Golurk, selling various Victini-related goods during the Eindoak Harvest Festival.

 
Juanita and her young son

Years prior to the events of the movies, Juanita and her son Damon—possibly before Carlita was born—traveled to the ruined site where the Kingdom of the Vale once stood. Expressing a wish for the People of the Vale to be able to again live there, Juanita instilled the dream that would drive Damon's actions years later. In the present, when Damon explains his goals to his family, Juanita and Carlita support him, along with Mannes. However, once they realize how far he is willing to go to accomplish the resurrection of the Kingdom of the Vale, Juanita makes a desperate bid to stop her son, sending Golurk to fight Damon's Reshiram or Zekrom. She fails, but before Reshiram or Zekrom can deliver a finishing blow to Golurk, the other dragon appears under the control of Ash to stop it. Later, when the Sword of the Vale castle begins flying out of control, Juanita evacuates on Mannes's helicopter and sends Golurk to save Damon from falling to his death.

She is last seen once the Sword of the Vale is set down in a new location, encouraging Damon to fulfill their shared dream by aiding in the construction of a new Kingdom of the Vale there.
