In X and Y, Emma is a young girl living in the dark alleyways of [[Lumiose City]] with her {{p|Espurr}} friend Mimi (Japanese: '''もこお''' ''Mokō''). She is initially an illiterate orphan who doesn't even have enough money to buy [[Poké Ball]]s. She meets Looker and the player during their first case, where concerned mothers reported that their children have been hanging out in suspicious alleyways. In reality, the children were playing with and protecting Emma and Mimi. Looker invites Emma to live at the {{DL|North Boulevard|Looker Bureau}} and work as his assistant. Though she is interested, Emma doesn't want to leave Mimi behind. Looker extends the invitation to Mimi as well, but Mimi is terrified of adults and runs off. After the player has found and befriended Mimi, Emma is much friendlier towards Looker and accepts his invitation, heading back to the Looker Bureau with him, Mimi, and the player. Emma then begins to learn how to read, write, and do basic arithmetic under Looker's tutelage.

During the following case, Emma returns to the Bureau to find a hysterical {{tc|Tourist}} angrily shouting insults in English (Japanese if the language is set to English) about Looker, who had left moments ago under the assumption that the woman wanted tea. Speaking in the language of the tourist, Emma defends Looker while Mimi translates their conversation telepathically for the player and Looker, revealing that the woman had her Pokémon stolen at the {{DL|North Boulevard|Lumiose Station}}. When Looker returns and learns of the situation, Emma tries to discourage him from helping the woman, but Looker insists that anyone in distress deserves their help and quickly leaves for the station. Emma then begs for the player to help Looker, revealing that he is defenseless because his {{p|Croagunk|only Pokémon}} died during a past case.

The culprits at the station turn out to be the {{tc|Lumiose Gang Member|Lumiose Gang}}, a trio of gangsters, who stole the Pokémon in order to lure Looker to their turf for a challenge. Emma had unintentionally become their boss after beating them in a fight, and they recognized her strength as leadership, but she stopped hanging around them once she took up residence at the Looker Bureau. Once the gangsters are defeated by the player, Emma shows up and demands that they return the stolen Pokémon and apologize to Looker.

During her tests as Essentia, she behaves like a robot and follows Xerosic's every command. The first test has her sneak into the [[Lumiose Museum]] and vandalize a painting. Afterwards, she begins lurking in dark alleys and challenging unsuspecting people to battle, stealing their Poké Balls afterwards. This catches the attention of Looker, who works with the player to bait and catch the perpetrator. When she gets cornered, Mimi runs in, tipping Looker off to Essentia's true identity. Xerosic's control over the suit starts to malfunction after Essentia tries to attack Mimi, only to accidentally hurt Looker. Essentia flees the scene and the tests are temporarily suspended.

The following day, the player is sent to apprehend Xerosic at Lysandre Labs. After the player defeats Essentia in a series of battles, Looker arrives and demands that Xerosic release Emma. After the suit's remote-control function starts glitching again, Xerosic agrees, letting Emma go and allowing Looker to take him into custody.

|desc={{p|Zygarde}}, also known as Kalos's "Overseer" (Japanese: '''監視者''' ''Watcher''), first appeared in [[Anistar City]]. When Essentia attempted to capture it by having Trevenant bind it with vines, Zygarde attempted to retaliate by summoning the forces of nature and absorbing them into its body. Doing so left it completely defenseless, allowing Essentia to easily capture it and escape. At the Pokémon Village, Lysandre controlled Essentia so that he may use Zygarde to battle against X, {{adv|Blue}}, and [[Blaine]]. As it battled {{adv|Mewtwo}}, X had his [[Marisso]] smash Essentia's helmet in the hopes that it may sever Lysandre's connection to Zygarde. After Emma decides to fight Lysandre, he steals Zygarde's Poké Ball, allowing him to directly command it.}}
