She sat down to talk to Johanna and the two decided they would pursue what they would be best at, with Johanna competing in Contests and Lila studying to become a [[Pokémon Stylist]]. | |||

Johanna (Japanese: アヤコ Ayako) is the mother of the player character in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. She is an accomplished Pokémon Coordinator from Twinleaf Town.
In animation, Johanna is the mother of Dawn and appears as a recurring character during Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, she is the mother of Diamond.
In the core series games
Unlike previous mothers of player characters, Johanna is less content to stay at home. After the player begins their journey, she can be found at the Contest Hall in Hearthome City and occasionally enters Master Rank Super Contests with her Kangaskhan, nicknamed Jumpy (Japanese: ガルちゃん Garu-chan).
She is also shown to travel to the Resort Area, where every so often she will visit the player's Villa. She can also be encountered in the lobby of the Battle Hall, where she will be cheering in support of the player.
She seems to be a friend of the Contest Judge Keira.

History
Pre-series
As a young girl, she was shown participating in a Pokémon Contest in a flashback in Battling the Generation Gap! against her childhood rival, Lila. It was revealed that Lila was the first person to defeat Johanna, breaking her winning streak. However, after seeing how passionate Johanna was about Contests, she started questioning what she wanted to do. She sat down to talk to Johanna and the two decided they would pursue what they would be best at, with Johanna competing in Contests and Lila studying to become a Pokémon Stylist.
Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl
Johanna debuted in Following A Maiden's Voyage!. She told Dawn that to become a great Pokémon Coordinator, she would have to learn from Trainers and Breeders as well. Later, when Dawn was about to leave for her journey with a large suitcase full of clothes and jewelry, Johanna gave her a small backpack.
In The Bells are Singing!, it was revealed that she sewed Buneary's vest.
In Battling a Cute Drama!, Dawn, Ash, and Brock received cold-weather outfits for the area surrounding Snowpoint City from her.
Johanna appeared in Strategy Begins at Home! and met Ash and Brock in person for the first time. Together with Izzy and Cara, she was planning the events of the Twinleaf Festival. She later had a two-on-two Contest Battle with her daughter, using her Glameow and Umbreon against Dawn's Piplup and Pachirisu. Although she won the battle with relative ease, she was impressed by Dawn's teamwork and complimented her.
In Challenging a Towering Figure!, Johanna was the hostess for the Festival Battle Challenge which was a part of the Twinleaf Festival. She wore a gown during the occasion.
In Teaching the Student Teacher!, Johanna was supposed to have a seminar for children, "My Very First Pokémon Coordinator Class," but she had to fill in for a Nurse Joy who was taking care of too many Pokémon as a judge in the Neighborly Town Contest. Dawn volunteered to teach in her place. At the end of the episode, Johanna gave Dawn a new outfit to wear at the Grand Festival.
Johanna made brief cameo appearances from Last Call — First Round! to Coming Full-Festival Circle!, in which she watched Dawn compete in the Sinnoh Grand Festival. She then appeared again in person in A Grand Fight for Winning!, where she joined the audience. She also made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of Zoroark: Master of Illusions.
When Dawn returned home in DPS01, Johanna decided to have her Glameow and Umbreon battle Dawn's Piplup and Cyndaquil. However, after Piplup and Cyndaquil started squabbling, the battle was stopped. She is last seen saying her farewells to Dawn on her journey to Hoenn.
Johanna in Pokémon Journeys: The Series
Pokémon Journeys: The Series
Johanna appeared in Nightfall? Nightmares!, where Chloe watched a video of her being interviewed. During the interview, Johanna took the opportunity to promote a Contest that was to be held in Eterna City.
Character
Johanna is an accomplished Pokémon Coordinator, having won the Ribbon Cup and the title of Top Coordinator after winning the Sinnoh Grand Festival when she was younger. Dawn grew up inspired by her achievements and decided to follow in her footsteps, wanting to become a great Coordinator as well. When Dawn left on her journey, Johanna gave her the first Contest Ribbon she received, which both of them carried as a good luck charm.
Johanna watches all of Dawn's Contests on television along with her Glameow. She also has newspaper articles about Dawn's victories and pictures of her competing in Contests and the Hearthome Collection in her living room. Although she keeps track of Dawn's journey, she doesn't like to get too involved, telling Dawn she would be better off relying on her friends and her Pokémon instead of her mother, and to use her losses as a learning opportunity.
While one might think that her skills have gotten rusty since she became a mother, it turns out that she teaches a Coordinator class out of her home, even having a battlefield behind her house for instructing her students. As a result, her skills are still as sharp as ever, as shown when she battled Dawn.

Diamond & Pearl arc
Johanna was first seen in Perturbed by Pachirisu when Platinum was watching Johanna's dance video to practice for the Dance Competition of her first Pokémon Super Contest.
She reappeared as a figment of Diamond's thoughts after the boy reminisced about the bonds that families share in Vexing Vespiquen & Unmanageable Mothim II.
She physically debuted in Stopping Sableye when Diamond learned that she had headed to Lake Verity to gather Berries and would be in danger because of Team Galactic's plan to blow up the lake. He went there and found her being held hostage by the Commander Mars. Johanna barely managed to escape with Diamond's help as he distracted Mars and allowed his mother to run away.
After returning home alongside Sebastian and Roseanne, she realized that the jacket and shoes that she ordered for Diamond were gone, and conjured the idea to call him on the phone she left in a pocket. Soon, though, after he received her call, she heard from him that he was infiltrating their flying shuttle and would be having a showdown with Team Galactic, much to her shock. Sebastian traveled to Pastoria City with Johanna and Roseanne to inform Pearl about Diamond's disappearance.
