'''Annie''' (Japanese: '''ザンナー''' ''Zanner'') is the secondary antagonist of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]''. She is a [[Team Rocket]] operative, at least in the English dub, alongside her partner and younger sister [[Oakley]].
 
==In the movies==
[[File:Annie Oakley Calling Card.png|thumb|230px|left|Annie and [[Oakley]]'s calling card]]
Not much is known about Annie nor her sister before ''Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias'', but since [[James]] instantly recognizes them, their reputation precedes them.


==History==
In the dub, they were assigned a mission by {{an|Giovanni}}, implying [[Team Rocket]] membership, but this is not present in the original.
Not much is known about the pair before [[Pokémon Heroes]], but their reputation precedes them; [[James]] instantly recognizes them.


In the dub, they were assigned a mission by [[Giovanni]], implying [[Team Rocket]] membership, but this is not present in the original.
Annie, along with her sister Oakley, was after the Soul Dew and the {{pkmn|category|Eon Pokémon}} {{OBP|Latias|M05}} and {{OBP|Latios|M05}}, the entities they needed to activate the mechanised weapon known as the [[Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare]] or DMA. Trailing Latias through Alto Mare, Annie and Oakley located the [[Secret Garden (location)|Secret Garden]], home to the Eon duo and the Soul Dew. While Latias escaped, Annie and Oakley managed to grab Latios and the Soul Dew. While Oakley commandeered the DMA, Annie became a worried bystander when Oakley lost control and Alto Mare came under threat of a {{wp|tsunami}}. When she tried to remove Oakley from the DMA, she instead became stuck as well.


==Abilities==
At the very end of the {{pkmn|movie}}, they were rescued by police and sent to a heavily guarded prison. They were last seen in said prison, where they examined the possessions of [[Lawrence III]]. Presumably, both are still behind bars.
Excellent at balance and athletics, the pair have no trouble making huge leaps and cartwheels while fighting {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} and keeping perfect balance on a beam which [[Jessie]], [[James]] and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] have trouble with. The pair also have some very advanced technology at hand - they have glasses which can identify Latias when disguised and can see Latias and Latios when invisible, and they capture Latios using what appears to be a net of energy.  


However, Annie is rarely seen using these devices; it usually falls to Oakley.
Annie briefly reappeared in a montage in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', which chronicled the preceding nine movies.


==Annie==
===Character===
{{CharacterInfobox|
Unlike her younger sister Oakley, Annie is less concerned with their goal than she is about her appearance. She is more stable and suave than her sister, and more enchanted by the beauty of the [[Soul Dew]] than the abilities of the [[Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare]] or capturing {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} {{tt|for {{an|Giovanni}}|dub only}}. Like her sister, Annie is very charming, manipulative, tech-savvy, and thorough in her work. Both have vain, thrill-seeking personalities and a ruthless determination to succeed, but Annie lacks Oakley's megalomania.

Unlike her younger sister Oakley, Annie is a little less concerned with the task at hand, and appears to be slightly more vain. Prettier and more suave than Oakley, Annie is enchanted by the beauty of the [[Soul Dew]], rather than the abilities of the [[Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare]], or capturing {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}} for [[Giovanni]] - she even screams that her outfit is ruined when she falls into a canal.


Ditzy as she appears, Annie is more in control than Oakley is, as Oakley goes somewhat mad with power when commandeering the Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare (DMA), despite Annie's concerns about using it.
Annie has excellent balance and athletic abilities, making huge leaps and cartwheels while fighting Latios and Latias with no trouble. She also has some rather advanced technology at hand; she has glasses that can identify Latias when disguised and can see Latias and Latios when invisible, and they captured Latios using what appears to be a net of energy. However, Oakley is usually the one operating these devices.

|desc={{p|Espeon}} is Annie's only known Pokémon. It was first seen when Annie and Oakley were trying to capture {{OBP|Latias|M05}} disguised as {{OBP|Bianca|M05}}. Espeon continued to chased after {{Ash}} and Latias, but it soon lost track of them while navigating [[Alto Mare]]'s laneways.
 
Later, its Psychic attack proved powerful enough to knock [[Lorenzo]] out cold, allowing the sisters to steal {{OBP|Latios|M05}} and the [[Soul Dew]]. Espeon stood guard while Annie and Oakley caused chaos across Alto Mare using the DMA.
 
Espeon's known moves are {{m|Psychic}}, {{m|Swift}}, {{m|Psybeam}}, and {{m|Tackle}}.}}

Although the younger sister, Oakley appears to be the brains behind the operation. Annie may be more suave, but it is Oakley who masterminds the plan. Unlike Annie, Oakley has a lust for power - Oakley is quick to use the DMA, and once at its helm, her desires for power take over - in the dub, "I can control the whole world from in here!"; in the original, "Now this city is mine!" (もうこの町はあたしのもののよ!).


She only uses it briefly, but we see Oakley is quick to learn how to use the DMA. In that time, she floods [[Alto Mare]], almost drowns [[Ash]], resurrects {{p|Kabutops}} and {{p|Aerodactyl}} fossils, among other things. Adept as she may be at using it, however, she does not know where to stop, and that eventually proved to be her downfall.

==Future==
At the very end of [[Pokémon Heroes]], Oakley climbed into the DMA to join Annie and ended up getting stuck inside it. They were rescued by police, and ended up in a heavily-guarded prison. The last we see of the two is them in said prison, looking at a picture book about the events of [[The Power of One|the second movie]]. Presumably, both are still behind bars.
==Trivia==
Annie's personality and love for jewels and Oakley's looks are both similar to that of [[wp:Rouge the Bat|Rouge the Bat]] of the ''[[wp:Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' series.
