Misty (US)

Misty is a leading female character of the Ultimate Story. She was based off of the Pokemon series own popular Water Gym Leader of the Pokemon series. She was also Fanfictiondreamer's favorite character of the series.

Origin Story
Misty started out as the second Gym Leader of the Kanto region. When the Pokemon anime first aired, she became something of a popular icon and a very well known and favorite character of the series. She was very well known for her love of Water-type Pokemon, her tomboyish demeanor, her love of adventure and cute Pokemon, her red-hair (which was styled differently from what is seen here) and her vicious knack to throw a hissy fit and insult the main character of the anime, Ash, without consequence. There were also rumors going around that she was romantically involved with Ash, however, that was debatable despite what most fans wanted to believe. Regardless, she was very well known and...well...there are plenty of differences between her anime appearance and how she is in the Ultimate Story.

Misty in the Ultimate Story
Misty in the Ultimate Story started out looking and acting exactly how she was in the anime. However, there are a number of significant differences between what she was in the anime and what she is in the US. For starters, in the anime, she was belittled by her 3 sisters, Violet, Lily and Daisy. In the US, she was sheltered by them which at first she believed was a way of belittling her. However, after she met Lisa and her friends, there were secrets about her that were eventually revealed. After the girls pulled her out of her home and had her receive her powers, she was revealed to be an ancient immortal being that was the guardian of the Earth's oceans. When she received her powers, she converted to her true form: a magical mermaid. She was also informed by Ly that she was nearly destroyed by an evil wizard thousands of years ago and was reborn as a seemingly normal human. She also lost all of her memories of her time as the immortal guardian.

It took a while for her to accept the truth about her but overtime, she was able to come to terms with her true self. Ly also mentioned to her that her special powers are sacred and that she need to find friends that she trust her powers with. Afterwards, she continued with her new friends to find a planet where she can continue training her powers, but not before arriving on Ripple Star to find the magical Crystal needed for the girls to continue their tasks and having Ribbon, a Ripple fairy who was also the guardian of the Crystal, joined them.

The group arrived on Corneria, a planet that Lisa had specifically chosen to have Misty train to perfect her powers. There, she met the Starfox team, including Fox, who she became very close to over time. She especially became close friends with Slippy, who gifted her with her trademark hairband to go with the makeover that the Powerpuff Girls gave her.

During her one year training regiment, she not only did she develop a strong bond with Fox, but also Bubbles, whom she had developed a sisterly relationship with during their previous journey, Ribbon, Peach and later on, Lady Bow.
