Lyra (anime): Difference between revisions

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first met Lyra when her {{p|Marill}} wandered off and they found it wedged in between two buildings. She introduced herself as a Trainer from [[Johto]]. She came to [[Sinnoh]] with her friend, [[Khoury]] and [[Khoury's father|his father]] in order to observe the Pokémon native to the region. Later she asks {{an|Dawn}} to participate in the [[Johto Festival]]. The two girls had a battle but Lyra lost and rewarded Dawn with an {{pkmn|Egg}}. At the end of the episode, Lyra and Khoury joined Ash's group because the former wanted to watch the upcoming {{to|Lilypad}} [[Pokémon Contest|Contest]] Dawn would be participating in. She last appeared in ''[[DP147|Bagged Then Tagged!]]'', where she and Khoury had a [[Tag Battle]] against {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} in the {{to|Lilypad}} Colosseum. Both Lyra and Khoury eventually lost the battle. Later they went to the airport to meet with [[Khoury's father]] before going back to [[Johto]]. Then, {{an|Brock}} suggested her to challenge [[Whitney]] and [[Morty]]. Also, upon her request, she asked Khoury to become her traveling companion and later, they promised Ash and Dawn that they would see them again.

It is implied in ''[[DP144|Gone With the Windworks!]]'' that Lyra has an interest in Ash. She admires his bravery and wishes [[Khoury]] acted more like him. Lyra has even asked Dawn if she and Ash are [[PearlShipping|a couple]] though Dawn informed her that they are just friends. Perhaps she was interested in Ash's spontaneousness, something that [[Khoury]] obviously lacks. In ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]'', she attempted to pair [[Khoury]] and {{an|Dawn}} together as a couple, despite Dawn's refusal, before eventually realizing she had [[JohtoFestaShipping|feelings]] for the former.
