Character from pokemon-sinnoh by
Veilstone City's Fighting-type Gym Leader — a shy, serious teenager whose Lucario is one of the best-trained Fighting-types in Sinnoh.
Maylene is the youngest active Sinnoh Gym Leader and suffers quietly from impostor syndrome — defeats at the Gym shake her worse than she admits. Ash meets her in a slump and rebuilds her confidence through a practice battle before their real match. She awards the Cobble Badge and becomes one of Paul's few points of respect in the region.
Early teens, short pink hair, pale eyes, red-and-blue martial arts gi, white belt. Smaller than her students. Bows formally before every match.
Also known as: Maylene, Sumomo
