==In the anime==

In ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'', after Ash's win at the [[Ecruteak Gym]], the gang bumped into [[Sakura]], who took them to the tea ceremony her sisters were running when they ask where it was being held. Sumomo was the first sister they met, greeting them formally. Tamao was seen next, demonstrating {{wp|ikebana}} to a small audience. Later, they passed by the lone Koume playing her {{wp|shamisen}}. Finally, they were treated to a quiet display of the art of {{wp|Japanese tea ceremony|tea making and drinking}} by Satsuki. Needless to say, Brock was entranced by them all and grew frightened when they were all together and called him out on his praise.

In ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]'', the four elder sisters were tricked by Team Rocket into handing over their Pokémon for dancing lessons. With the help of Sakura's Eevee, now an {{p|Espeon}}, the other four [[Eeveelution]]s were rescued, and the episode ended with the sisters wishing Sakura well on her journey.

==Trivia==

* In the French and German localizations of {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the name Keiko was used for different Kimono Girls.

* [[Bill]]'s mother was once a Kimono Girl, according to {{tc|Poké Maniac}} Brent, who reveals trivia about Bill via [[Pokégear]].

* Both of the anime episodes which featured all of the Kimono Sisters had [[Masaaki Iwane]] as animation director.

* In the anime episode ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]'', the four elder sisters' fans match the elemental themes of their Pokémon.

* In the anime, all of the Kimono Sisters except for Sakura have their Eeveelutions in an [[Apricorn]] Ball; in the games, these, along with the {{ball|Safari}} and the {{ball|Sport}}, are the only Poké Balls that an Eeveelution cannot be legitimately caught in.
