Pokemon Journeys: Ash Crosses Paths With an Old Friend

Serena is a charming Pokemon Trainer with a performance‐oriented repertoire, having set her sights on the title of Kalos Queen. She was inspired by Ash's courage and kindness as a young child, managing to find him once again many years later in Santalune City, subsequently joining Clemont, Bonnie, and Ash on their adventures.

Serena left the story in early 2017 of Pokemon XY&Z in an episode titled «Till We Compete Again!» and man did she leave an impression! As arguable one of the most popular female characters in Pokemon, fans were overjoyed to see Serena return to their screens in Pokemon Journeys.

Chloe's successful first performance in episode 105 of Pokemon Journeys wouldn't have been possible without Serena's involvement, as the fashion-forward gal offers the newbie tonnes of support and encouragement regarding her new venture. Chloe had involuntarily been roped into competing in the Contest Spectacular in Lilycove City by Lisia, and was debating her decision to participate when she was lucky enough to come across Serena and Sylveon.

While chatting with Chloe, Serena is reminded of the days when she started out as a Pokemon Performer, thinking back to when her Sylveon was also still just an Eevee. She commends Chloe for allowing her Eevee to choose her own evolution, claiming that Sylveon appeared to her after a strong connection was formed between herself and her Eevee during a battle against Ash. Serena inspires her new friend to push doubt from her mind and to keep going forward, and gives Chloe valuable fashion advice during their impromptu shopping excursion. The two become quick friends, unaware of their mutual connection through Ash.
