Agatha and [[Professor Oak]] were once friendly rivals in their youth. However, their relationship has grown bitter and strained over the years because Agatha believes he was too weak to continue competing. In [[Pokémon Masters EX]], during her [[Sync pair|Sync Pair]] Story "A Day with Agatha", {{mas|Agatha}} explains how she and {{mas|Professor Oak|Oak}} met. Oak was always friendly and open when he was young and would talk to Agatha and try to help her. Though he was only trying to be nice, it still annoyed Agatha because she wanted to be left alone. Agatha would battle Oak to try and get him to go away, but he was always better than her, and so she would battle him again and again. Eventually, the time they spent together began to mean a lot to Agatha. As a result, when Oak got the idea to invent the [[Pokédex]] and subsequently stopped battling, Agatha felt betrayed.

{{TRT}} soon arrived, hoping to kidnap Pikachu, but Ash worked together with Agatha and her {{p|Golbat}} to send the trio blasting off. She then wished Ash the best for his upcoming Battle Frontier challenge and said that she would be rooting for him.

====History====

=====Past=====

She was first seen trying to take away {{tc|Super Nerd}} {{adv|Miles}} after he was defeated by Yellow and the Good Gym Leaders of Kanto. She was then seen in a flashback during the events of the previous chapter where she battled Blue and attempted to kill him by having her Gengar use Dream Eater to suck away his energy. While encased in the Dream Eater's coffin, she told him of her vendetta against Professor Oak and anyone associated with him, which included Blue.

Agatha appears in ''[[PM035|Panic on the Luxury Liner?!]]''. She has the ability to transform into a {{p|Golbat}}.

* Though Agatha is stated to [[Type specialist|specialize]] in the {{type|Ghost}}, {{t|Poison}} is actually the most common [[type]] among all of her Pokémon in the [[core series]] games, present in all but two of her Pokémon: {{p|Misdreavus}} and {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Marowak}} due to the lack of Ghost type Pokémon at the time.

** In her [[Generation I]] and initial [[Generation VII]] teams, all of her Pokémon are either pure or partly Poison-types, making Agatha the only member of the [[Kanto]] Elite Four to have ever had a team in which all members share a common type.

* In the Generation I {{pkmn|games}}, the {{pkmn|battle}}s against [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], and Agatha use the standard Trainer battle theme, while the Gym Leader battle theme is played only against [[Lance]]. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the Gym Leader battle theme plays during the battles against all four members of the Elite Four.

* As Agatha's name in Japanese includes "chrysanthemum", the design of the shawl she wears in her [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] concept art is based on chrysanthemum leaves.<ref name=Guide>''[[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! & Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee!: Official Trainer's Guide & Pokédex]]'', p. 373</ref>
