'''Pikala''' (Japanese: '''ピカーラ'''  ''Pikala'') is a recurring character who first appeared in ''[[SM091|A Plethora of Pikachu!]]''. She is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who lives in [[Pikachu Valley]] with all of her {{p|Pikachu}}.
 
==History==
Pikala debuted in ''[[SM091|A Plethora of Pikachu!]]'', where she met {{Ash}}, {{an|Kiawe}}, and [[Mimo]] when they visited [[Pikachu Valley]]. To give her visitors the full experience, she gave them each Pikachu-themed ears and tails to wear as well as giving them their own "Pika-speak" names, '''Pikash''' (Japanese: '''サトピ''' ''Satopi''), '''Pikawe''' (Japanese: '''カピ''' ''Kapi''), and '''Pikamo''' (Japanese: '''ホピ''' ''Hopi''), respectively. Later, when {{TRT}} attempted to steal all of the Pikachu, Pikala, with the help of her {{Shiny}} Pikachu, [[nickname]]d the Boss, sent the trio blasting off using {{m|Catastropika}}.
 
She reappeared during a flashback in ''[[SM114|Beauty is Only Crystal Deep!]]'', where she had her [[Pikanium Z]] stolen by a {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Pheromosa}}.


Pikarla is a slightly eccentric woman who loves Pikachu. She even dresses up in a Pikachu outfit and puts "Pika" into all of her sentences, referring to this manner of speech as "Pika-speak". She also has the ability to know which [[region]] a Pikachu comes from by touching their fur.
In ''[[SM129|Battle Royal 151!]]'', Pikala entered the [[Manalo Conference]] with another one of her Pikachu, named '''Bolt''' (Japanese: '''ボルト''' ''Bolt''). However, it was defeated by [[Jessie's Mimikyu]] during the [[Battle Royal]] preliminary round, thus eliminating Pikala from the tournament.
