Dawn is notable for her confidence since she almost always tries to look towards the future rather than dwell on her mistakes. In the Japanese version, Dawn's catchphrase is "Daijōbu!", which can be translated as "It's fine!" or "Don't worry!". Although not consistently translated in the English dub at first, she began to regularly use "No need to worry!". | Dawn is notable for her confidence since she almost always tries to look towards the future rather than dwell on her mistakes.

In stark contrast to {{an|May}}'s inexperience and self-doubt at the start of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'', Dawn was overly confident and assured in her own strength at the beginning of her journey. Because of this, she became emotional after she was eliminated from Pokémon Contests, and often cried after losing. After failing to pass the Performance Stage two times in a row, Dawn became depressed. In ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'', Dawn remembered these failures and had to excuse herself so she could cry. These behaviors were completely opposite those she had exhibited at the beginning of her journey, something Ash and Brock took notice of. Their encouragement was not enough to renew her psyche though, and it was not until she defeated May to win the [[Wallace Cup]] that she truly regained her confidence and focus. After this point, Dawn took on a more positive and determined personality. In addition, she became more mature. Instead of reverting to her old headstrong and confident attitude, she became more aware of her faults and how she could work to overcome them. | In stark contrast to {{an|May}}'s inexperience and self-doubt at the start of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'', Dawn was overly confident and assured in her own strength at the beginning of her journey.

Dawn was also more aggressive than May whenever she had to confront {{TRT}}. | ||
