Lorelei sole appearance in the {{pkmn|anime}} was in ''[[EP099|The Mandarin Island Miss Match]]''. Her name was changed to '''Prima''' in the English dub of the episode. According to [[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]], this was to fit the amount of syllables; the English name "Lorelei" is three syllables while the Japanese name "Kanna" is only two. In the anime, Prima is considered a [[Pokémon Master]].

In the episode, while on [[Mandarin Island South]], {{Ash}} learned that Prima was going to be giving a lecture. {{an|Misty}} was very excited, as Prima was her idol. Ash enthusiastically challenged Prima to a battle, but she didn't seem to take notice of him, being unimpressed by the young Trainer. Prima did, however, invite them to her lecture and demonstration.
While on [[Mandarin Island South]], [[Tracey]] learned that Prima was going to be giving a lecture and {{pkmn|battle}} demonstration. He also revealed that she has a house on the island and trains there in her off season. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} had a chance encounter with Prima while sitting down at a café. {{an|Misty}} was very excited, as Prima was her idol. Ash enthusiastically challenged Prima to a battle, but she didn't seem to take notice of him and instead gravitated towards [[Misty’s Togepi]]. Prima did, however, invite them to her lecture and demonstration. She watched Ash's match against a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Prima then stepped in with her {{p|Slowbro}} after [[Ash's Charizard]] was being disobedient, allowing Ash to recall it back to its [[Poké Ball]].
Ash and the others went on to attend Prima's demonstration at the Mandarin Stadium and watched her defeat three Trainers in a row. The group then visited her home. After Ash insisted once again, Prima finally agreed to a one-on-one battle. Ash sent out {{AP|Pikachu}} and Prima selected her {{p|Cloyster}}, and Ash went on to lose the match. Prima said that Ash had the potential to become great, but needed to find more inner strength, since he had forgotten to connect with his Pokémon.


After Ash insisted once again, Prima finally agreed to a battle - that Ash lost horribly. Prima said that Ash had the potential to become great, but needed to find more inner strength, since he had forgotten what really connecting with his Pokémon was.
{{TRT}} arrived on the scene, but Prima sent out her {{p|Jynx}} and dealt with them swiftly. Afterwards she wished the group all the best with their travels and informed Ash that the closest Gym was the [[Trovita Gym]].


Prima has a sort of dreamy, spaced-out personality and often reacts slowly to things. Her strategy in life is to go with the flow, like water, but to become as hard as ice in battle. She sells recordings of her lectures at high prices.
====Character====
Prima takes time out of her busy schedule to relax on [[Mandarin Island South]] and admire nature's beauty. Her strategy in life is to go with the flow like water, but to become as hard as ice in {{pkmn|battle}}.
Prima's skills are highly regarded and she makes frequent appearances in the media, though she is dismissive of her fame and other's praise. Instead, she enjoys mentoring up and coming {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, and hosts her own lectures. Prima's training ethos teaches Trainers to find their inner strength and truly value their connection with their Pokémon. She also sells her lectures as tapes, but for expensive prices.
