(Japanese: '''ブランカ''' ''Blanca'') is a supporting character who appeared in [[HZ041]]. She is [[Dot]]'s mother and [[Murdock]]'s younger sister.

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
Some time before Dot joined the Rising Volt Tacklers, Blanca and Dot decided that they would have a deadline to evaluate whether the experience was what Dot wanted for her. As time passed and under Murdock's watch, Blanca constantly received reports from her brother about Dot's situation at Brave Olivine.

Blanca has been mentioned by [[Murdock]] in ''[[HZ011|Arboliva's Forest]]''.

In [[HZ041]], after some time without answers from Murdock or Dot, Blanca traveled with Friede to Brave Olivine to personally check on her daughter and bring her back home. Upon arriving at the airship, Blanca met Liko, Roy and introduced her to the others, shortly after, she decided to talk about Dot's situation in the group with her daughter's friends, after that, with Liko's insistence, Blanca let her Liko and Roy try to talk to Dot.

Upon seeing Dot opening up to her friends, Blanca decided to challenge her daughter to a Pokémon Battle. After a tough battle, Dot managed to defeat her mother and thus got Blanca's approval to continue traveling with her friends.

===Character===
Blanca is an over expressive person that says a lot about her family members. She is often stopped by her Lycanroc from getting off topic.

Similar to Dot, Blanca has a change in stance when entering a Pokémon battle, throwing her hair back and adopting a more confident personality. Just like her older brother, Blanca has a Pokémon based on a wolf, although in her case it is a Midnight Form {{p|Lycanroc}}. This choice seems to reflect on the way she dresses, as Blanca wears clothes and accessories that refer to {{p|Rockruff}} and its evolutionary lines.

Whenever its Trainer begins talking too much and going off-topic, Lycanroc tends to help Blanca stop talking and focus on the task at hand. It later battled {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} aboard the [[Brave Olivine]]'s battlefield, where it managed to keep Quaxly at bay for the majority of the battle, but once Quaxly learned {{m|Low Kick}}, Lycanroc was knocked out, giving Dot and Quaxly the win.

Lycanroc’s known moves are {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Rock Throw}}.}}
