Sakura debuted in ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]''. She soon struck up a friendship with {{an|Misty}}, after learning that were both the youngest in their families and has similar experiences with their older sisters. While she had been training to be a [[Kimono Girl]], like her sisters, she had dreamed of becoming a [[Pokémon Trainer]], and looked forward to challenging the [[Johto League]]. She even considered joining {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} on their [[Pokémon journey]]. Though after witnessing Ash's group {{pkmn|battle}} against her sisters, she decided that she wanted to train by herself first before embarking on her own journey.

She struck a friendship with {{an|Misty}} after learning both were both the youngest in their families and had similar experiences with their older sisters. While she was training to be a [[Kimono Girl]] like her sisters, she dreamed of becoming a [[Pokémon Trainer]] instead and looked forward to challenging the [[Johto League]]. She even considered joining {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} on their {{pkmn|journey}}. However, after witnessing Ash's group battling her sisters, she decided she wanted to train by herself first before embarking on her own journey.


The group caught up with Sakura in ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]'', while passing through [[Ecruteak City]]. By this time, her {{p|Eevee}} had [[Evolution|evolved]] into an {{TP|Sakura|Espeon}}. She used Espeon in a battle against [[Misty's Corsola]], though lost the match. She also later helped the group to save her sisters' stolen Pokémon from {{TRT}}. Afterwards she decided she was finally ready to go on her own journey, and with her sisters’ permissions, she began her journey towards [[Violet City]].

Sakura's latest appearance was in ''[[HS05|The Blue Badge of Courage]]'', where she was revealed to be challenging Gyms and so visited Misty in [[Cerulean City]]. She mentioned that she already had three Gym Badges by that point: the {{Badge|Storm}}, the {{Badge|Zephyr}}, and the {{Badge|Hive}}. After she helped Misty in rescuing [[Kinso]]'s stolen Badges from the [[Gym Badge thieves]], Sakura had a battle against Misty's Corsola once again. This time, Espeon was victorious, thus earning Sakura her fourth Badge, the {{Badge|Cascade}}.

Sakura is a sincere girl. Prior to meeting {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, Sakura felt lost in herself. Sakura shares a lot of parallels with {{an|Misty}}. In particular, her desire for independence namely because she felt that she was never included with many of her sisters' activities. While she had been training alongside her sisters to become a fully qualified [[Kimono Girl]], Satsuki and the others were always quick to point out her mistakes and immaturity. Misty's traveling tales served as a catalyst for Sakura to finally reveal and eventually go on her own journey. Her newfound confidence was well received by her sisters in ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]''. By the end of ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]'', Sakura put her training into practice. She led the offensive against {{TRT}} and later went on to recover her sisters' stolen Pokemon, reaffirming her goals and independence.
