Also unlike Ash's other friends, Dawn has already crossed a lot of boundaries that have previously only been held by Ash. She saw the aforementioned [[legendary Pokémon]] prior to meeting Ash, and is the first main character to own an {{type2|Electric}} [[Dawn's Pachirisu|Pokémon]] besides Ash. Having caught {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}, {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, and {{AP|Buizel}}, Dawn has captured more Pokémon in her first 35 episodes that any of the other main characters, aside from Ash. She is also the first main character besides Ash to have battled [[Lucian|a member]] of the [[Elite Four]], and the first of [[Ash's friends]] to have defeated a {{p|Phione|legendary Pokémon}}. | Also unlike Ash's other friends, Dawn has already crossed a lot of boundaries that have previously only been held by Ash.

She had a [[bicycle]], but like [[Misty]]'s and {{an|May}}'s bikes, [[Ash's Pikachu]] destroyed it with its {{m|Thunderbolt}}. However, she did not mention this to Ash until over 30 episodes after it happened. Johanna gave Dawn one of her old [[ribbon]]s from her days as a coordinator as a gift for luck. She also had a large suitcase full of dresses, but her mother made her leave it at home due to its impracticality. She also has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, and her contest cry is "Spotlight!"

Since starting her journey, the [[Pokémon ]] that Dawn acquire tend to be cute like her starter, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}. However, due to still being a rookie, she may have some rough spots on how to deal with her Pokémon properly. However, she still deeply cares for all her Pokémon, especially Piplup. | Since starting her journey, the [[Pokémon]] that Dawn acquire tend to be cute like her starter, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}.

* Dawn's Japanese name is Hikari, and [[Zoey|her rival's]] is Nozomi. The ''Hikari'' and the ''Nozomi'' are two Shinkansen "bullet train" lines. The Nozomi is faster than the Hikari, possibly symbolizing that Zoey is farther along in her coordinating skills than Dawn. It should also be noted that they go the opposite direction. | * Dawn's Japanese name is Hikari, and [[Zoey|her rival's]] is Nozomi.
