During her travels with Ash, she, aside from training to become the best {{t|Water}} [[Pokémon Trainer]], also acted as his coach in many Pokémon battles. She is somewhat considered as a rival to Ash due to their competitive nature. It was also her job to drag Brock away from women by his ear.

Misty can be sweet and optimistic at times, but she is best known for how easily she can be angered, crazy, or frustrated, and how loud and violent she can become in response. She is very extreme in most of her moods, and can switch between them quickly. There are many episodes where she is seen getting along with the younger siblings of the family, namely [[Mikey]], [[Sakura]], and [[Max]]. This stems from the fact that she understands what it's like to be the youngest because she has three older sisters.

Her goals are not as clear as those of the other main characters, since though her main interest is {{pkmn|training}} {{type|Water}} Pokémon, there are many things she loves to do and she is very confident in her abilities in all aspects of life. [[Fishing]] is one of her hobbies, however, and she has a [[Misty's special lure|special lure]] which she designed to look like herself and gave to Ash as a gift. The one Pokémon [[type]] that Misty cannot stand are {{type|Bug}}s; she tends to freak out in most cases whenever she encounters a Bug-type, which was first demonstrated when she refused to befriend Ash's {{AP|Caterpie|Butterfree}}. However, bugs are only one of three things Misty strongly dislikes, the other two being {{wp|carrots}} and {{wp|peppers}}. The only Bug-type Pokémon Misty is not afraid of are the kinds that she deems "cute" or "pretty", like {{p|Ledyba}} and {{p|Butterfree}}, some belonging to her friends, like [[Tracey's Venonat]], or ones that don't look like bugs, like {{p|Pineco}}.

Misty made her anime debut in ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'', fishing in a nearby river on [[Kanto Route 1|Route 1]]. As her fishing rod snagged something, she managed to pull out not a Water Pokémon, but [[Ash]] and his injured {{AP|Pikachu|Pikachu}}, who were being chased by a flock of {{p|Spearow}}. After pointing Ash in the direction of the nearest [[Pokémon Center]], the one in {{ci|Viridian City|Viridian}}, he stole her bike, saying that he would return it someday.

After pointing Ash in the direction of the nearest [[Pokémon Center]], the one in [[Viridian City]], he stole her bike, saying that he would return it someday.


In [[EP002|the next episode]], Misty appears in the Pokémon Center after Ash drops off his Pikachu, holding her charred bike and demanding a new one right away. She is distracted from her demands when [[Nurse Joy]] brings Pikachu out, sad to see Pikachu in such condition. Before anything else could be said, an [[Jessie's Arbok|Ekans]] and [[James's Weezing|Koffing]] burst through the ceiling, and {{TRT}} come through as well. After helping Nurse Joy and Ash wheel Pikachu into the back room, she tells Ash to help defend the center with the Pokémon in stock.  After a few failed tries, she decides to step in herself, and sends out her Goldeen to buy some time, though quickly recalls it since Water Pokémon can't battle on land. Later in the episode, it was revealed by Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy that Misty had gone with Ash to the [[Viridian Forest]]. As the screen cuts to them, Misty lets out a scream, seeing a {{t|Bug}} Pokémon, which happens to be a {{AP|Caterpie|Caterpie}}, she reveals her fear of bugs and tells him to do something about it. So, the new Trainer decides to throw a Poké Ball at it.

After Ash competed in the [[Silver Conference]], however, her bicycle was repaired and returned to her by the [[Viridian City]] [[Nurse Joy]]. Misty was shown to be sad that she no longer had the convenient excuse to travel with Ash, especially when she saw that Ash hadn't learned that and had assumed she followed him because of her bike. In addition, her sisters {{an|Daisy}}, {{ka|Lily}}, and [[Violet]], called Misty at this time to tell her they were going on a world tour, and needed her to return to Cerulean and watch the Gym in their absence. However, Misty saw how Ash truly cared for her when he saved her from a trio of [[Invincible Pokémon Brothers|Pokémon gangsters]]. Misty wanted to stay with Ash, but felt it was her responsibility to take over the Gym, which would be shut down if left unattended.

Upon the return of her sisters, Misty remained the sole Cerulean [[Gym Leader]]. Since their return, only Daisy appears to spend any significant amount of time at the Gym.
