(Japanese: プルミエ Premier) is a character of the day who appeared in XY013.
She is a kindergarten teacher who brings wild Pokémon she and her Sylveon have befriended to the kindergarten she works at to give the children experience with Pokémon. One day, though, she was lucky enough to meet a group of Pokémon Trainers; namely, Ash and his friends. She challenged Ash to a battle when they locked eyes with the condition that Ash comes with her if she wins, using Sylveon against Ash's Froakie. Although Froakie put up a good fight against the Intertwining Pokémon, she infatuated him with Attract, rendering him defenseless against Draining Kiss. As a result, Ash lost and had to accompany her to the kindergarten. Ash enthusiastically allowed the children to pet Pikachu and encouraged Serena, Clemont and Bonnie to let their Pokémon meet the children.
All the children happily interacted with the gang’s Pokémon with the exception of a boy named Randy, who was terrified of Pokémon due to a previous negative experience. Soon, Team Rocket arrived disguised as a volunteer entertainment troupe, stole Pikachu and Sylveon and drove off in a truck. Randy and Froakie were accidentally taken along for the ride and Ash clung to the back of the truck in an effort to rescue the stolen Pokémon. Premier decided to follow the truck once she realized Randy was missing, with Serena, Clemont and Bonnie coming with her; she was led to the truck by Fletchling. By the time they arrived at Team Rocket's hideout, Ash had already broken Pikachu and Sylveon out of the glass cages with Froakie and Randy’s help and sent Team Rocket blasting off.
Later, she, Sylveon, the principal and the kindergarteners waved the gang goodbye.
