'''Marina''' (Japanese: '''マリナ''') is a trainer from [[New Bark Town]]. Her [[Starter Pokémon|starter]] was a {{p|Totodile}} (now a {{p|Feraligatr}}), and she also owns a {{p|Jigglypuff}} and {{p|Misdreavus}}. Her Japanese voice actress is 村井かずさ ''Kazusa Murai'', her English voice actress is [[Kelly Davis]], and her Brazilian Portuguese voice actress is [[Letícia Quinto]]. Her overall design seems to be based on of the [[Kris (game)|female hero]] of [[Pokémon Crystal]].


She appears in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', where she does battle against [[Attila]] and [[Hun]] with the help of [[Jimmy (Legend of Thunder)|Jimmy]], [[Vincent]], and [[Eusine]]. She loves cute Pokémon and cute nicknames (Little Pink for her Jigglypuff, for instance), and does synchronized movement with them when she calls them out.
'''Marina''' (Japanese: '''マリナ''' ''Marina'') is one of the main characters of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', along with {{jo|Jimmy}} and [[Vincent]]. She is a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and {{pkmn|Coordinator}} from [[New Bark Town]].
 
==History==
===Pre-series===
[[File:LoT first partners.png|thumb|250px|left|Marina and her friends]]
Marina's [[first partner Pokémon]] was a {{p|Totodile}} that she [[nickname]]d [[Wani-Wani]]; she received it from [[Professor Elm]] on the same day {{jo|Jimmy}} received his {{TP|Jimmy|Cyndaquil}} and [[Vincent]] obtained his {{TP|Vincent|Chikorita}}. She entered the [[Silver Conference]] along with Jimmy a full year before Vincent competed.
 
===''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''===
[[File:The Legend of Thunder Part 1.png|thumb|220px|Marina and Jimmy in [[The Legend of Thunder!]]]]
Marina was first seen talking to Vincent on the videophone at a [[Pokémon Center]]. When she noticed Jimmy's presence, she quickly said goodbye to Vincent to give him attention. They started talking about their {{pkmn|journey}}s, and Marina said she wanted to turn all of her {{pkmn|battle}}s into a show to make people happy. When Jimmy said that {{pkmn|training}} and being a star were two completely different things, Marina challenged him to a battle to prove him wrong. During the battle, a lightning bolt struck the battlefield, scaring [[Little Miss]] and causing her to run into the woods. Marina then chased her and discovered that [[Attila]] and [[Hun]] from [[Team Rocket]] were trying to capture the {{pkmn2|Legendary}} {{OBP|Raikou|The Legend of Thunder!}}.
 
Upon seeing Raikou being hurt, Marina joined Jimmy to help him fight off Attila and Hun. She entered the battle with Little Miss and managed to incapacitate Attila's {{p|Skarmory}} and Hun's {{p|Steelix}}, forcing them to retreat. Later, she met [[Eusine|Eugene]] at the Pokémon Center and soon became enamored with him. When Raikou fled from the Pokémon Center, Eugene offered Marina and Jimmy a ride in his car so that they could follow it. Together with Jimmy and Vincent, she tried to keep Raikou away from Team Rocket, however, they were unsuccessful and both Marina and Raikou ended up in the shuttle. There, she found a way to unlock the door of the cargo hold and free Raikou.
 
Marina was tied up when Attila and Hun returned to try to capture Raikou once again. She fell from the cliff she was on, but was rescued by Jimmy's {{p|Beedrill}}. When Raikou was trapped in the force field formed by the Miracle Crystal, Marina sent Little Miss to battle Attila and Hun's Pokémon along with Eugene's {{p|Alakazam}}. She later helped Jimmy and Vincent defend their Pokémon while they were trying to break the force field to free Raikou. Once the {{pkmn|category|Thunder Pokémon}} got out of the field, Marina thanked it for coming back to save her. Having helped protect Raikou from Team Rocket and made a friend in it, Marina continued her journey to become a great [[Pokémon Trainer]].


Her goal, unlike most other trainers, is to be a "Pokémon Idol."  The specifics of being a Pokémon Idol are never made clear in the anime, but it seems to entail putting on a show while battling. Note that her first appearance occurred before the concept of the [[Pokémon Contest]] was even introduced to the series.
===''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]''===
[[File:Jimmy Marina Vincent JN.png|thumb|250px|Marina and her friends in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'']]
In the opening sequence of ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', Marina was seen running by the coast with {{p|Lugia}} and her three Pokémon: [[Little Miss]], [[Wani-Wani]], and Pink.


She also loves men in capes, especially [[Lance]], having a whole notebook full of pictures of him. She flirts with Eusine because he wears a cape, and Vincent wears one to impress her.
===''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''===
In ''[[DP010|Not on MY Watch Ya Don't!]]'', Marina was featured on the cover of a [[Magazines in the Pokémon world|magazine]], modeling the [[Pokétch]]. Additionally, she made another cameo appearance in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]'' in a video hosted on the official [[Pokémon Contest]] website, which [[Zoey]] showed to {{an|Dawn}}. In the video, Marina was seen delivering a [[Double Performance]] with [[Wani-Wani]] and Pink. [[Marian]] called her a [[Top Coordinator]], meaning she has won the [[Grand Festival]] and has been awarded the [[Ribbon Cup]]. Marina even appears to have her own merchandise; one of the customers of the [[Café Cabin|Mountain Hut Maid Café]] in ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' wore a T-shirt with her face on it.


When Jackson (Vincent) appeared in the [[Silver Conference]], he referred to "Dani and Yoshi," leading many to believe that "Dani" was the official English name for Marina. Whether this was the original intention remains unknown. However, in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', she is properly identified as Marina.
===''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''===


According to the same aforementioned conversation, Marina entered the Silver Conference along with Jimmy a full year before Jackson.
In ''[[JN116|Pride of a Champion!]]'', Marina appeared watching the [[Masters Eight Tournament]] match between {{an|Lance}} and [[Diantha]] on TV, alongside Jimmy and Vincent.


==Recent appearances==
==Character==
[[File:Marina cover.png|thumb|220px|Marina in a magazine for a [[Pokétch]]]]
Marina loves cute {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and [[nickname]]s. She also loves men in capes and has a whole notebook full of pictures of [[Lance]]. She tends to perform synchronized movements with her Pokémon whenever she calls them out of their [[Poké Ball]]s. She practices singing and dancing steps with her Pokémon, which gives them a dynamic rhythm in battle.


In the intro of ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', Marina is seen running by the coast with {{p|Lugia}} and her three Pokémon: Little Miss, Wani-Wani, and Little Pink.
Her goal, unlike most other Trainers, is to be a Pokémon Idol. One aspect of being a Pokémon Idol seems to entail putting on a show while {{pkmn|battle|battling}}. It should be noted that in Japanese pop culture, {{wp|Japanese idol|idols}} are media personalities admired for their cuteness. Therefore, it is assumed that Marina's ambitions are somewhere along these lines, and she plans to use cute and talented Pokémon to help her become famous. Given that one of her cameos in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'' was as a magazine model, it is likely that real-life Japanese idols were the basis of her character design.


In ''[[DP010|Not on My Watch Ya Don't]]'', Marina appears on the cover of a magazine, modeling the [[Pokétch]]. This may imply her goal of becoming an idol has come true. Additionally, she makes another cameo appearance in [[DP041]], performing in a contest on [[Zoey]]'s laptop. [[Marian]] calls her a [[coordinator|top coordinator]].
Marina first appeared before the concept of {{pkmn|Coordinator|Pokémon Coordinating}} and the [[Idol (Trainer class)|Idol]] Trainer class were introduced in the games. However, she was shown to have become a Coordinator in her later appearances.

History

Pre-series

Marina and her friends

Marina's first partner Pokémon was a Totodile that she nicknamed Wani-Wani; she received it from Professor Elm on the same day Jimmy received his Cyndaquil and Vincent obtained his Chikorita. She entered the Silver Conference along with Jimmy a full year before Vincent competed.

The Legend of Thunder!

Marina and Jimmy in The Legend of Thunder!

Marina was first seen talking to Vincent on the videophone at a Pokémon Center. When she noticed Jimmy's presence, she quickly said goodbye to Vincent to give him attention. They started talking about their journeys, and Marina said she wanted to turn all of her battles into a show to make people happy. When Jimmy said that training and being a star were two completely different things, Marina challenged him to a battle to prove him wrong. During the battle, a lightning bolt struck the battlefield, scaring Little Miss and causing her to run into the woods. Marina then chased her and discovered that Attila and Hun from Team Rocket were trying to capture the Legendary Raikou.

Upon seeing Raikou being hurt, Marina joined Jimmy to help him fight off Attila and Hun. She entered the battle with Little Miss and managed to incapacitate Attila's Skarmory and Hun's Steelix, forcing them to retreat. Later, she met Eugene at the Pokémon Center and soon became enamored with him. When Raikou fled from the Pokémon Center, Eugene offered Marina and Jimmy a ride in his car so that they could follow it. Together with Jimmy and Vincent, she tried to keep Raikou away from Team Rocket, however, they were unsuccessful and both Marina and Raikou ended up in the shuttle. There, she found a way to unlock the door of the cargo hold and free Raikou.

Marina was tied up when Attila and Hun returned to try to capture Raikou once again. She fell from the cliff she was on, but was rescued by Jimmy's Beedrill. When Raikou was trapped in the force field formed by the Miracle Crystal, Marina sent Little Miss to battle Attila and Hun's Pokémon along with Eugene's Alakazam.

Having helped protect Raikou from Team Rocket and made a friend in it, Marina continued her journey to become a great Pokémon Trainer.

In the opening sequence of Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, Marina was seen running by the coast with Lugia and her three Pokémon: Little Miss, Wani-Wani, and Pink.

Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl

In Not on MY Watch Ya Don't!, Marina was featured on the cover of a magazine, modeling the Pokétch. Additionally, she made another cameo appearance in A Stand-Up Sit-Down! in a video hosted on the official Pokémon Contest website, which Zoey showed to Dawn. In the video, Marina was seen delivering a Double Performance with Wani-Wani and Pink. Marian called her a Top Coordinator, meaning she has won the Grand Festival and has been awarded the Ribbon Cup.

Character

Marina loves cute Pokémon and nicknames. She also loves men in capes and has a whole notebook full of pictures of Lance. She tends to perform synchronized movements with her Pokémon whenever she calls them out of their Poké Balls. She practices singing and dancing steps with her Pokémon, which gives them a dynamic rhythm in battle.

Her goal, unlike most other Trainers, is to be a Pokémon Idol. One aspect of being a Pokémon Idol seems to entail putting on a show while battling.

Given that one of her cameos in Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl was as a magazine model, it is likely that real-life Japanese idols were the basis of her character design.

Marina first appeared before the concept of Pokémon Coordinating and the Idol Trainer class were introduced in the games. However, she was shown to have become a Coordinator in her later appearances.
