* Upon Spencer and the player arriving
: ''"Welcome back, Leader!"''
: ''"Oh, hi! Are you the hot rookie prospect? I'm Solana. Glad to meet you! What's your name?"''
: ''"<Player>, <player>… OK, I've memorized it! Welcome to our team! We'll be working together from now on. Let's do our best! Oh, and this is my partner Pokémon. Plusle! Come on, say hello!"''
: ''"This building is Ringtown's Ranger Base. Come on, let's go in!"''


She was also showcased in the intro [[Spurt]] starting from [[AG172]] and made a brief appearance in the opening of ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''. [[Image:Spurtv2.jpg|frame|right|Solana in Spurt]]

==Pokémon==
==In the anime==
Solana has these Pokémon with her currently:
===Main series===
[[File:Solana anime AG.png|thumb|220px|Solana in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'']]
[[File:Solana anime DP.png|thumb|220px|Solana in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'']]
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]''====
Solana first appeared in ''[[AG155|The Green Guardian]]'' as a Rank 3 Ranger. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} encountered her when they detoured through a forest after discovering the [[Kanto Route 17|Cycling Road]] was closed. When {{AP|Pikachu}} ran off after hearing something, Solana ordered the group to go back, but she agreed to assist find Pikachu after receiving approval from the [[Ranger Union]]. Deeper in the forest, Solana called on three {{p|Linoone}} with her Capture Styler to {{m|Slash}} away the vines blocking their way, freeing {{TRT}} in the process. The group found Pikachu and an injured {{p|Celebi}}. After the group gained Celebi's trust and helped it recover, Team Rocket arrived with their [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]]. Solana helped rescue Celebi from the mecha while commanding her {{p|Plusle}} to use {{m|Thunder Wave}} on it.


*{{p|Plusle}}
In ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 1)]]'', Solana received reports of a large geomagnetic disturbance in a mountainous area. She was preparing to go to a meteor crash site by herself when she came across Ash's group again, and she reluctantly allowed them to join her. Solana then found {{an|Deoxys}} at the end of the cave. Deoxys became a challenge for Solana to capture as it needed to be in its Normal Forme. {{MTR}} and {{an|Max}} then revealed Deoxys was in pain and were later transported to {{TP|Deoxys|another dimension|unnamed world}} by Deoxys.


She has temporarily obtained these Pokémon:
In ''[[AG172|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 2)]]'', Solana contacted the Ranger Union, where she learned more about the geomagnetic disturbance. She and the others returned to the cave to rescue Max and Meowth, as well as heal Deoxys. With {{AP|Sceptile}}'s help, Solana was able to capture Deoxys with her Styler and heal it. The resulting drop in atmospheric pressure caused the meteorite to explode, though Deoxys defended everyone from the blast. Solana declared the mission to be complete after Deoxys left its dimension behind to explore the {{pkmn|world}}.
Solana appeared in the opening [[Spurt!]], starting in ''[[AG173|All That Glitters is Not Golden]]''. She also briefly appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', where she rescued several forest Pokémon and then put out a forest fire with the help of an {{p|Azurill}}, {{p|Marill}}, and {{p|Azumarill}}.


*{{p|Linoone}}(x3)
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''====
*{{p|Dugtrio}}
In ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1)]]'', she appeared with a new uniform, and did not have her Plusle with her. She called [[Kellyn]] on his Styler while he was with Ash, {{an|Dawn}}, and {{an|Brock}}. Solana notified him that she and [[Officer Jenny]] were on a motorcycle finding the location of [[J]]'s hideout.
*{{p|Diglett}}
*{{p|Altaria}}
*{{p|Miltank}}
*{{p|Deoxys}}


=Merchandise=
In ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2)]]'', Solana informed Kellyn that [[J's client (DP071)|one of J's clients]] had escaped. After the group found J and her client's henchmen, Solana and Officer Jenny arrived to deal with the client's henchmen while Ash and Kellyn went after the client himself. Solana caught a nearby {{p|Trapinch}} with her Capture Styler and trapped the client's henchmen and Pokémon with {{m|Rock Tomb}}.


====Character====
Solana is athletic and quick-thinking. She initially disliked getting civilians to help her on her missions, as seen when she refused to allow {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to assist in her first appearances. However, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|Part 2]]'', she recommended that [[Kellyn]] work alongside Ash and the others to save the [[Aura Sphere Riolu]].

[[File:Solana PR.png|thumb|250px|Solana in Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Solana is a major character in [[Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission]] as the co-worker of [[Lunick]].
====''[[Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission]]''====
She first appears to contact [[Lunick]] after one of his missions to inform him that the Ranger Leaders, Spenser, Joel, and Elita have failed in their mission to capture a {{p|Deoxys}} and have been defeated.
After the Ranger Leaders were taken back to be healed, Solana and Lunick review the battle from Joel's Capture Styler. Soon after, Professor Hastings arrives and gives the two Rangers the mission to finish what the Ranger Leaders had started and capture Deoxys.
Solana and Lunick capture several Pokémon to prepare for their fight against Deoxys and go to [[Lyra Forest]] to confront it. Soon after, they are attacked by Deoxys who quickly changes form and runs into [[Krokka Tunnel]]. Fearing what would happen if Deoxys gets to [[Fall City]], Solana attempts to capture it, only for it to change form to dodge her Styler.
They are quickly surrounded by the [[Go-Rock Quads]], Tiffany, Garret, Clyde, and Billy who have defeated the final Ranger Leader, Cameron, and taken the {{p|Manaphy}} Pokémon Egg he had found. The two release themselves from Deoxys's grip and Solana goes after Tiffany, who had been sent to take the Egg to the Quads' secret hideout, leaving Lunick to face the other three alone.
Solana follows Tiffany to the [[Sekra Range]] and combats her for possession of the Manaphy Egg. Due to Tiffany having a Super Styler, an upgraded Capture Styler that had its designs stolen from Professor Hastings, she has the advantage in the fight. However, Joel sends Solana a message about how to capture Deoxys, which she relays to Lunick by using [[Poké Assist]]s. The message is revealed to be "Normal", which gives Lunick the idea to destroy the other Super Stylers to force Deoxys back into its Normal Forme, allowing him to capture and free it.
Solana then has Minun break Tiffany's Super Styler, defeating her and winning back the Manaphy Egg in the process. After the Quads retreat, Solana and Lunick take Cameron and the Egg back to Professor Hastings's lab. Due to Fiore not having Trainers, everyone decides to send the Manaphy Egg to the Sinnoh Region to find a proper Trainer to take care of it. Soon after, Solana and Lunick leave on another mission to stop a {{p|Grimer}} outbreak in the Fall City [[Waterworks]].

==Trivia==
*[http://pokeani.com/chara/s-hinata.html Hinata's Profile] on [[Pokeani]] (Japanese)
* Solana's Spanish name is a reference to the moon, rather than the sun like all her other names. This is most likely due to the fact that the deity after which she is named sounds similar to her English name. Lunick's Spanish name is likewise a reference to the sun.
* The Pokémon Ranger 4 Piece Collector Pin Set at PokemonCenter.com calls Solana '''Hiromi''', possibly indicating a name from before "Hinata" was finalized.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20061113185036/http://www.pokemoncenter.com/invt/4679&temp=productdescription PokémonCenter.com | Pokemon Ranger: 4 Piece Collector Pin Set]</ref> It is also the Japanese name of [[Lizabeth]] from ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''.

Solana in Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl

Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire

Solana first appeared in The Green Guardian as a Rank 3 Ranger. Ash and his friends encountered her when they detoured through a forest after discovering the Cycling Road was closed. When Pikachu ran off after hearing something, Solana ordered the group to go back, but she agreed to assist find Pikachu after receiving approval from the Ranger Union. Deeper in the forest, Solana called on three Linoone with her Capture Styler to Slash away the vines blocking their way, freeing Team Rocket in the process. The group found Pikachu and an injured Celebi. After the group gained Celebi's trust and helped it recover, Team Rocket arrived with their mecha. Solana helped rescue Celebi from the mecha while commanding her Plusle to use Thunder Wave on it.

In Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 1), Solana received reports of a large geomagnetic disturbance in a mountainous area. She was preparing to go to a meteor crash site by herself when she came across Ash's group again, and she reluctantly allowed them to join her. Solana then found Deoxys at the end of the cave. Deoxys became a challenge for Solana to capture as it needed to be in its Normal Forme. Meowth and Max then revealed Deoxys was in pain and were later transported to another dimension by Deoxys.

In Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 2), Solana contacted the Ranger Union, where she learned more about the geomagnetic disturbance. She and the others returned to the cave to rescue Max and Meowth, as well as heal Deoxys. With Sceptile's help, Solana was able to capture Deoxys with her Styler and heal it. The resulting drop in atmospheric pressure caused the meteorite to explode, though Deoxys defended everyone from the blast. Solana declared the mission to be complete after Deoxys left its dimension behind to explore the world. Solana appeared in the opening Spurt!, starting in All That Glitters is Not Golden. She also briefly appeared in the opening sequence of Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, where she rescued several forest Pokémon and then put out a forest fire with the help of an Azurill, Marill, and Azumarill.

Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl

In Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1), she appeared with a new uniform, and did not have her Plusle with her. She called Kellyn on his Styler while he was with Ash, Dawn, and Brock. Solana notified him that she and Officer Jenny were on a motorcycle finding the location of J's hideout.

In Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2), Solana informed Kellyn that one of J's clients had escaped. After the group found J and her client's henchmen, Solana and Officer Jenny arrived to deal with the client's henchmen while Ash and Kellyn went after the client himself. Solana caught a nearby Trapinch with her Capture Styler and trapped the client's henchmen and Pokémon with Rock Tomb.

Character

Solana is athletic and quick-thinking. She initially disliked getting civilians to help her on her missions, as seen when she refused to allow Ash and his friends to assist in her first appearances. However, in Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part 1 and Part 2, she recommended that Kellyn work alongside Ash and the others to save the Aura Sphere Riolu.

Solana in Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission

Pokémon Adventures

Solana is a major character in Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission as the co-worker of Lunick.

Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission

She first appears to contact Lunick after one of his missions to inform him that the Ranger Leaders, Spenser, Joel, and Elita have failed in their mission to capture a Deoxys and have been defeated.

After the Ranger Leaders were taken back to be healed, Solana and Lunick review the battle from Joel's Capture Styler. Soon after, Professor Hastings arrives and gives the two Rangers the mission to finish what the Ranger Leaders had started and capture Deoxys.

Solana and Lunick capture several Pokémon to prepare for their fight against Deoxys and go to Lyra Forest to confront it. Soon after, they are attacked by Deoxys who quickly changes form and runs into Krokka Tunnel. Fearing what would happen if Deoxys gets to Fall City, Solana attempts to capture it, only for it to change form to dodge her Styler.

They are quickly surrounded by the Go-Rock Quads, Tiffany, Garret, Clyde, and Billy who have defeated the final Ranger Leader, Cameron, and taken the Manaphy Pokémon Egg he had found. The two release themselves from Deoxys's grip and Solana goes after Tiffany, who had been sent to take the Egg to the Quads' secret hideout, leaving Lunick to face the other three alone.

Solana follows Tiffany to the Sekra Range and combats her for possession of the Manaphy Egg. Due to Tiffany having a Super Styler, an upgraded Capture Styler that had its designs stolen from Professor Hastings, she has the advantage in the fight. However, Joel sends Solana a message about how to capture Deoxys, which she relays to Lunick by using Poké Assists. The message is revealed to be "Normal", which gives Lunick the idea to destroy the other Super Stylers to force Deoxys back into its Normal Forme, allowing him to capture and free it.

Solana then has Minun break Tiffany's Super Styler, defeating her and winning back the Manaphy Egg in the process. After the Quads retreat, Solana and Lunick take Cameron and the Egg back to Professor Hastings's lab. Due to Fiore not having Trainers, everyone decides to send the Manaphy Egg to the Sinnoh Region to find a proper Trainer to take care of it. Soon after, Solana and Lunick leave on another mission to stop a Grimer outbreak in the Fall City Waterworks.

Trivia

  • Solana's Spanish name is a reference to the moon, rather than the sun like all her other names. This is most likely due to the fact that the deity after which she is named sounds similar to her English name. Lunick's Spanish name is likewise a reference to the sun.
  • The Pokémon Ranger 4 Piece Collector Pin Set at PokemonCenter.com calls Solana Hiromi, possibly indicating a name from before "Hinata" was finalized.[1] It is also the Japanese name of Lizabeth from Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea.
