The Kimono Girls (called the ''Kimono Sisters'' in the {{pkmn|anime}}) were featured in two episodes, ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'' and ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]''.
The Kimono Girls (called the ''Kimono Sisters'' in the {{pkmn|anime}}) were featured in two episodes, ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'' and ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]''. The dub retained their original Japanese names instead of using their localized English names.


In ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'', after Ash's win at the [[Ecruteak Gym]], the gang bumps into [[Sakura]], who takes them to the tea ceremony her sisters are running when they ask where it was being held. Sumomo is the first sister they meet, greeting them formally. Tamao is seen next, demonstrating {{wp|ikebana}} to a small audience. Later, they pass by the lone Koume playing her {{wp|shamisen}}. Finally, they are treated to a quiet display of the art of {{wp|Japanese tea ceremony|tea making and drinking}} by Satsuki. Needless to say, Brock is entranced by them all, and grows frightened when they're all together and call him out on his praise.

The sisters are skilled Trainers as well as tradition keepers. Upon proposing a challenge to the trio to battle for Sakura to join them, Sumomo and Satsuki both display their Vaporeon's and Jolteon's abilities against [[Misty's Poliwhirl]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]] respectively. Vaporeon defeats Poliwhirl and Pikachu defeats Jolteon, but the latter only after {{TRT}}'s interruption.
