>>53677692She's the only girl that had significant character growth in a game. Bianca was first, but hers was just kind of a side quest sort of deal. One could argue that Iris had character growth, since she's randomly the champion in the sequel, but she's not a character you really interact with outside of battles and maybe one or two events. Modern girls after haven grown.
>Marnie is just some generic goth/punk/emo/whatever girl who smiles once>Nemona is always cheerful, capable, and a champion. Doesn't need to grow.>Penny goes from a cyber terrorist to a cyber terrorist with a snarky attitude. >No other noteworthy pokegirls otherwiseIf we're talking anime, it's also true since Lilie had absurd character growth, going from a phobia of pokemon to actually being a trainer who was able to fight alongside the Alola gang at times. Bea had some nice characterization in the anime, but not much growth. Iris had NEGATIVE growth by being a bawling baby with an idiotic mentality in the world championships. Cynthia is always the same no matter what. Kohaku, as little as she was important, had plenty of character growth in Journeys, but she was always a side character like the scientists and professor. Shame really, since Kohaku was one of the only good characters in that series.
