She is the eighth and final Gym Leader to be met in the [[Johto]] region, and defeating her will allow Trainers to advance to [[Indigo Plateau]].

She is the eighth and final Gym Leader to be met in the [[Johto]] region, and defeating her will allow Trainers to advance to [[Indigo Plateau]]. Known as "The Blessed User of Dragon Pokémon", Clair is descended from a long line of Dragon-type Trainers including her cousin, [[Elite Four]] member [[Lance]], and the {{OBP|master|Dragon Tamer clan}} of Blackthorn's Dragon Tamer clan. | ||
Clair is confident of her abilities as a Trainer, and speaks of herself as "the world's best dragon master". She can hold her own against the [[Elite Four]]: her only known loss is against Lance, now the Champion. Even if the player defeats her in battle, she refuses to accept his or her talents unless they pass the "{{tt|Dragon-master challenge| | Clair is confident of her abilities as a Trainer, and speaks of herself as "the world's best dragon master". She can hold her own against the [[Elite Four]]: her only known loss is against Lance, now the Champion. Even if the player defeats her in battle, she refuses to accept his or her talents unless they pass the "{{tt|Dragon-master challenge|"dragon user challenge" in Generation II}}". The {{Badge|Rising}} that victors of the Blackthorn Gym are entitled to remains in Clair's possession until Trainers have navigated the [[Dragon's Den]] and located a shrine at its center. Only then will Clair acknowledge her loss. She will also encourage the player to excel at the Pokémon League; this is mainly personal, so she will feel less upset about her defeat at the hands of a child. As well as the Rising Badge, she will also issue a {{t|Dragon}} Technical Machine: {{tm|24|DragonBreath}} in [[Generation II]]; {{tm|59|Dragon Pulse}} in [[Generation IV]]. Many of her own Pokémon know these moves in the respective generations. | ||
The player's rival, {{ga|Silver}}, takes to training in the Dragon's Den once the Elite Four have been defeated by the player. In this way, he is said to act as Clair did when she was young herself. She returns here from time to time, and will battle alongside her cousin against Silver and the player. She tries to partner up with Silver after he challenges Lance (who asks the player to be his partner), but Silver insults her outfit and asks the player to partner with him instead. She comes to the Dragon's Den every morning between 6:00 AM and 10:00 AM after the player and rival defeat her and Lance, and will give her [[Pokégear]] phone number to the player. If called on Friday evening, she will journey to the [[Fighting Dojo]] and have a rematch with the player. | The player's rival, {{ga|Silver}}, takes to training in the Dragon's Den once the Elite Four have been defeated by the player.

They discovered that both Pokémon belong to Clair, who was following the Dratini down the river as it prepared to shed its skin. {{TRT}} snatched the Dratini, however, and Clair gave chase, demonstrating her highly acrobatic abilities. Dratini escaped, and Ash fought to protect it. During the ensuing battle, however, an electric shock was headed straight for Dratini, but Clair jumped in front of it to absorb the shock. Dratini witnessed its Trainer's devotion, and [[Evolution|evolved]] into a {{p|Dragonair}} in order to put a stop to Team Rocket. Later, Clair was finally able to perform an important ritual to purify the legendary {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}. Clair then went on to accept Ash's challenge for a {{Badge|Rising}}. | ||
