Iris was born and raised in the [[Village of Dragons]] and would spend her time as a little girl playing with the [[wild Pokémon]] that lived in the forest just outside the village. She had learned to be quite skilled in tree climbing, as well as tending and caring to different Pokémon. As revealed in ''[[BW136|A Pokémon of a Different Color!]]'', she originally did not like Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be scary. One day, she had taken shelter from a rainstorm in a cave and found an injured {{p|Druddigon}} that was initially hostile to her. However, after she treated its foot, it returned the favor by saving her from a {{p|Scolipede}}. Since then, she liked Dragon-type Pokémon.
Iris was born and raised at the [[Village of Dragons]] in the [[Unova]] region and would spend her time as a little girl playing with the [[wild Pokémon]] that lived in the forest just outside the village. She had learned to be quite skilled in tree climbing, as well as tending and caring to different Pokémon. As revealed in ''[[BW136|A Pokémon of a Different Color!]]'', she originally did not like Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be scary. One day, she had taken shelter from a rainstorm in a cave and found an injured {{p|Druddigon}} that was initially hostile to her. However, after she treated its foot, it returned the favor by saving her from a {{p|Scolipede}}. Since then, she liked Dragon-type Pokémon.


One day, sometime prior to her {{pkmn|journey}}, she met a wild {{TP|Iris|Drilbur}} that had injured a {{p|Patrat}} and had stolen its food. Angered, she sought justice for what the Drilbur had done and challenged him. After countless defeats, she finally managed to outmaneuver the Mole Pokémon and get him caught in some vines dangling just over a cliff. After coming to his rescue, the two became good friends and began {{pkmn|training}} together. After many victories against different types of {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, Drilbur [[Evolution|evolved]] into an {{p|Excadrill}}. The two then got the opportunity to meet [[Drayden]], a Dragon Master, who praised Iris for her skill in {{pkmn|battle}}. When he asked who was teaching her how to battle she responded that she was teaching herself with the help of the Pokémon she had befriended in the village. Brimming with confidence, she then challenged Drayden to a battle. However, Drayden's {{p|Haxorus}} was more powerful than Iris had anticipated and Excadrill was easily defeated. After suffering defeat and becoming distrustful of his Trainer (due to Iris pushing him to keep battling even though he knew it was a lost cause), Excadrill then closed himself off from Iris, rarely opening up, and never showing emotion.

Iris competed in the [[Club Battle]] along with multiple other Trainers, including her [[rival]], Georgia. Her first battle was against [[Jimmy Ray]] and his {{p|Watchog}} in ''[[BW040|Cilan Versus Trip, Ash Versus Georgia!]]'', which Iris easily won with her Emolga. She then battled against [[Stephan]] and his {{TP|Stephan|Sawk}} in ''[[BW041|The Club Battle Hearts of Fury: Emolga Versus Sawk!]]'', which she also managed to win with Emolga. She then went up against [[Luke]] and his {{p|Golett}} in [[BW042|the next episode]], using Axew. In the battle Axew learned {{m|Outrage}}, which he used to defeat Golett. In the final round, Iris went up against Ash and his {{p|Pikachu}}, while Iris used her Excadrill. After a long fight, Excadrill managed to defeat Pikachu, allowing Iris to win the tournament, along with a full set of [[Wing]]s.

In ''[[BW066|Baffling the Bouffallant!]]'', Iris and Axew were separated from Ash and Cilan, along with Ash's Oshawott, Snivy, and Tepig, while in Boufallant territory. With their help, she helped treat an injured Boufallant that later came to their rescue when they were threatened by other Boufallant. The Boufallant then guided them out of the territory, and she reunited with Ash and Cilan.

Her fear of the {{t|Ice}} [[type]] has been put to the test in some episodes, like in ''[[BW079|Caution: Icy Battle Conditions!]]'', where she entered the cold [[Icirrus Gym]] and saw Ash facing [[Brycen]]'s Ice-type Pokémon. Some time later, in ''[[BW081|Crisis at Ferroseed Research!]]'', she had to command Georgia's {{p|Vanilluxe}} in order to escape the [[Ferroseed Research Institute]] as her Pokémon were unable to help.

Line 114: Line 121:
Despite her understanding of Dragon types, Iris has limited knowledge about the variety of non-[[Unova]]n Dragon-type Pokémon, and often assumes that some Pokémon are Dragon types based solely on their appearance. This was seen when Iris believed that {{AP|Charizard}} was a Dragon-type Pokémon during ''[[BW116|The Fires of a Red-Hot Reunion!]]'', and also mistakenly believed {{p|Gyarados}} also was a Dragon type during ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]'' until she was corrected by Cilan.

Throughout her journey with Ash and Cilan, Iris has changed exceptionally as both a person and Trainer, but maintains her overconfidence and tendency to call people, especially her friends, out on their maturity. Iris has also learned the importance of understanding her Pokémon's feelings, as shown in ''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]'', when Iris realized that she wasn't considering her Excadrill's feelings in their battle against [[Drayden]]'s {{p|Haxorus}} and apologized to him. In addition, Iris has vastly improved her battling skills, as shown when she became {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Unova League]].

Despite Iris aiming to be a [[Type expert|Dragon Master]], only a little more than half of her [[party]] are {{type|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and [[Iris's Excadrill|her first one]] is not. Like {{Ash}}, she tends to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} Pokémon she befriends or wants to travel with her regardless of their [[type]], as shown when she wanted to add an {{AP|Oshawott}} and a {{AP|Tepig}} on her team before both decided to stay with Ash.

None of Iris's Pokémon were caught in battle, as they were either given to her or decided to go with her willingly.
 
For various reasons, most of Iris's Pokémon, Excadrill, {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}, and {{TP|Iris|Dragonite}}, showed signs of [[Obedience|disobedience]] in battles. However, Iris was eventually able to work past these issues and earn their full cooperation.
