Selene (やみこ, Yamiko) is the Gym Leader of Watsonia City, specializing in the Dark-type Pokémon.

Overview[edit | edit source]

Character[edit | edit source]

Selene is the sixth Gym Leader of the Hora League, as well as the youngest leader in Hora, next to Lorraine. She gives out the Void Badge to those who managed to defeat her. She is a specialist in the Dark-type, though she also enjoys taking part in Pokémon Contests. Originally, she was an orphan, growing up in the care of the Gym trainers that would eventually become her loyal followers, until she was made the Gym Leader at the young age of ten.

She makes her debut in the series in Gible, Gabite, Garchomp!, where she is venturing to Port Kardinal for the "Tour de Kardinal" Contest. She meets Silus and friends on their own way to the Contest, meeting them on the breezy Route 13.

Personality[edit | edit source]

Selene is fiercely competitive, not only in her Gym battles, but also in the Pokémon Contests she takes part in. This can cause her to appear fiery and vain, even when she doesn't mean it. She seems to care a great deal for her Pokémon and has an outstanding relationship with each of them.

In Gible, Gabite, Garchomp!, she shows a fierce respect for Wallace; getting violent when he is talked poorly of.

Silus's Gible
Gible
Main article: Silus's Gible

Selene owned a Gible. It was the only non-Dark-type Pokémon on her team. She claims she captured it because it was once friends with her Tyranitar when it was still a Pupitar. She later traded it to Silus in exchange for his Deino.

On this wiki[edit | edit source]

Main article: Selene

Selene's main incarnation on the wiki seems to be different from the incarnation that appears in the Light & Dark series. While sharing similar backgrounds, they have noticeably different Pokémon teams (though even then, they share similarities).

According to the the author, this difference stemmed from a disagreement between himself an his co-writer on Selene's appearance. While the author preferred an anime image, which was strikingly similar to the Vocaloid Selene's appearance was based on, his co-writer felt that the Vocaloids should remain the standard for the Hora Gym Leaders. To settle the disagreement, the author agreed to create an "anime-only", per say, version of Selene (this incarnation), that would appear only in his series.

Appearances[edit | edit source]
