Conway (Japanese: コウヘイ Kōhei) is a recurring character who appeared in the Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl. He is a Pokémon Trainer who first appeared in Tag! We're It...! as Dawn's Tag Battle partner.

History

Conway and Dawn

Conway first appeared from Tag! We're It...! to Smells Like Team Spirit!. He was shown to be a very smart Trainer, his strategies playing an important role in helping himself and Dawn to advance to the finals of the Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition, where they would end up losing to Ash and Paul.

Conway and Ash

Conway appeared again in Camping It Up! through One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team! during a four-episode arc at the Pokémon Summer Academy. During this arc, he demonstrated his knowledge about Pokémon as well as an attraction towards Dawn.

He later appeared in An Old Family Blend!, where it was revealed that he was also entering the Lily of the Valley Conference. In League Unleashed!, he passed the first round, then in Casting a Paul on Barry!, he made it through the second and had his third round opponent, Ash. He battled Ash and lost in Working on a Right Move! after almost defeating him thanks to his strategies.

He made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of Zoroark: Master of Illusions.

Character

The most notable thing about Conway is his habit of appearing out of nowhere, which Dawn finds creepy. He is remarkably intelligent, and uses effective strategies such as using Trick Room to his Dusknoir's advantage. However, he is bad at improvisation which led to his elimination from the Lily of the Valley Conference in Working on a Right Move!. He also has a habit of adjusting his glasses and chuckling in a creepy manner, which is displayed every time he appears.

It was later shown to have helped Dawn's Buneary beat Conway and Dawn's semi-final round opponents, in Smells Like Team Spirit!.

It was later seen again in Up Close and Personable!, in the Pokémon Summer Academy where it showed off some impressive moves against Jessie's Yanmega; protecting a Lumineon that he, Ash, and his friends had found in a cave.

Lickilicky
