A '''Kimono Girl''' (Japanese: '''まいこはん''' ''{{wp|Maiko|Dancing Girl}}'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first appeared in the [[Generation II]] games. They appear as young women dressed in {{wp|kimono}}s. | |||
Kimono Girls usually appear as a quintet of Trainers who each own one of {{p|Eevee}}'s [[evolution]]s. | |||
[[ | ==In the core series games== | ||
[[File:Kimono Girls Tin Tower.png|thumb|250px|Atop the [[Bell Tower]] in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|Pokémon HeartGold}}]] | |||
[[File:Summoning Lugia.png|thumb|250px|Inside the [[Whirl Islands]] in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|Pokémon SoulSilver}}]] | |||
In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, five Kimono Girls live in [[Ecruteak City]], and can be battled at the Ecruteak Dance Theater. Each owns one of the five [[Eeveelution]]s available in [[Generation II]]. | |||
=== | In Pokémon Crystal only, Kimono Girls Saito and Arita can appear in the {{Gdis|Battle Tower|II}} as random opponents. | ||
: | In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the Kimono Girls' roles are expanded, and they are met outside the dance theater as well: Zuki is met in [[Violet City]] after the {{player}} has retrieved the [[Pokémon Egg]] from one of [[Professor Elm]]'s [[Professor's assistant|aide]]; Naoko is found being lost in [[Ilex Forest]]; Miki is being harassed by a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} in the dance theater in Ecruteak; Kuni is met in the [[Goldenrod Tunnel]] during the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] incident; and Sayo needs to be freed from being stuck on ice in the [[Ice Path]]. | ||
: | |||
After the played has earned all eight [[Johto]] [[Badge]]s and obtained the [[Master Ball]] from Professor Elm, the player travels to Ecruteak City and battles the five Kimono Girl consecutively in order to obtain the [[Clear Bell]]{{sup/4|HG}}/[[Tidal Bell]]{{sup/4|SS}}. Zuki also tells the player that {{p|Ho-Oh}}{{sup/4|HG}}/{{p|Lugia}}{{sup/4|SS}} is to be awakened and then controlled. The Kimono Girls then travel to the [[Bell Tower]]{{sup/4|HG}}/[[Whirl Islands]]{{sup/4|SS}}, where they will perform a dance that summons Ho-Oh{{sup/4|HG}}/Lugia{{sup/4|SS}} there. | |||
: | |||
: | While being faced at the Dance Theater, the Kimono Girls also reveal several things that they did off-screen: Zuki handed the [[Mystery Egg]] to [[Mr. Pokémon]]; Naoko witnessed the player defeating [[Team Rocket]] at the [[Slowpoke Well]]; Sayo watched as the player passed the {{OBP|Master|Dragon Tamer clan|Elder}}'s test at the [[Dragon's Den]]; and Kuni saw the player taking down Team Rocket once and for all at the Radio Tower. | ||
Kuni can later be encountered as a [[Pokéathlon]] participant at the [[Pokéathlon Dome]]. | |||
: | |||
; | In [[Generation IV]], the girls' respective [[Eeveelution]]s are swapped; only Zuki and Kuni's partners remained the same from Generation II. Additionally, all of their Pokémon get a level raise from 17 to 38 and improved movesets, due to them being fought later in the game than in Generation II. Finally, Kuni's Japanese name, Sumomo, was altered to Komomo, probably to avoid confusion with [[Maylene]], whose Japanese name is also Sumomo. | ||

=====[[Original series]]===== | |||
The Kimono Girls were called the ''Kimono Sisters'' in the [[original series]]. The dub retained their original Japanese names instead of using their localized English names. | |||
In ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'', after {{Ash}} [[Ecruteak Gym]] victory, the gang bumped into [[Sakura]], who took them to the tea ceremony her sisters were running after {{an|Misty}} inquired about a nearby advertising poster. Sumomo was the first sister the group met, greeting them formally. Tamao was seen next, demonstrating {{wp|ikebana}} to a small audience. Later, they passed by the lone Koume playing her {{wp|shamisen}}. Finally, they were treated to a quiet display of the art of {{wp|Japanese tea ceremony|tea making and drinking}} by Satsuki. {{an|Brock}} was entranced by them all and grew frightened when they were all together and called him out on his praise. | |||
The sisters are skilled {{pkmn|Trainer}}s as well as tradition keepers. Upon proposing a challenge to the trio to battle for Sakura to join them, Sumomo and Satsuki both displayed their {{p|Vaporeon}} and {{p|Jolteon}}'s abilities against [[Misty's Poliwhirl]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]], respectively. Vaporeon defeated Poliwhirl and Pikachu won against Jolteon, but the latter only after {{TRT}}'s interruption. | |||
When Sakura changed her mind about leaving at that time, Satsuki admitted that she and the other three weren't against Sakura leaving to begin her journey, only that they wanted her to not be dependent on others if she finally did. | |||
In ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]'', the four elder sisters attended a lucrative Pokémon Dance Academy class. However, the academy was another one of Team Rocket's schemes, and the Kimono sisters ended up handing over their Pokémon in exchange for private dancing lessons when they were actually stolen. With the help of [[Sakura's Espeon]], evolved from her Eevee, as well as [[Misty's Corsola]], the other four [[Eeveelution]]s were rescued, and the episode ended with the sisters wishing Sakura well on her own journey. | |||
=====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''===== | |||
In ''[[DP143|An Egg Scramble!]]'', the Kimono Girls made a cameo in {{an|Lyra}}'s video about [[Johto]] during the [[Johto Festival]]. | |||
====Character==== | |||
All of the sisters are sincere and polite. Satsuki is the oldest among the sisters and appears to do most of the talking, while Koume appears to be the most withdrawn and shy. The sisters are well-versed in many of the ancient arts like the {{wp|Japanese tea ceremony|tea ceremony}} and {{wp|ikebana}} flower arrangements, and they continue to train themselves in these traditions. | |||
They unintentionally excluded the youngest sister [[Sakura]] from many of their activities, namely because they deemed her to be immature and poorly trained. When Sakura revealed she wanted to be a [[Pokémon Trainer]] in ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'', they were initially doubtful of Sakura's commitments to her goal, but she gained their respect by the end of ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]''. | |||

A Kimono Girl made a brief appearance in a flashback in ''[[PG06|The Reawakening]]''. She was one of the citizens of [[Ecruteak City]] during the time when the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] was struck by lightning. She wept as the flames that engulfed the Brass Tower killed three nameless Pokémon, which would later be revived by {{p|Ho-Oh}} as the [[Legendary beasts]]. | |||

The Kimono Girls appeared in ''[[PE07|The Show]]'', where they performed in a stage play based on the tale of {{p|Lugia}} and the destruction of the [[Burned Tower]], once known as the Brass Tower. Each girl took turns narrating a portion of the story, using the [[move]]s of their respective [[Eeveelution]]s' alongside various other backstage Pokémon to provide visual and dramatic effects. | |||

All five Kimono Girls made an appearance in ''[[PS448|Pleased as Punch With Parasect]]'', when {{adv|Gold}} decided to visit them in Ecruteak after finishing up at the [[Pokéathlon]]. Gold spent his time watching them perform, which annoyed the [[Radio Director]] of {{ci|Goldenrod}}. However, Gold revealed that he was actually allowing time for [[Aibo]] to train in the meantime, as he was trying to learn {{m|Double Hit}}. When he finally did, Aibo evolved into {{p|Ambipom}}, winning the praise of the Kimono Girls. In ''[[PS460|All About Arceus IX]]'', the Kimono Girls were revealed to have added a {{p|Leafeon}} and a {{p|Glaceon}} to their team. | |||

The Kimono Girls made a small cameo in ''[[GB11|Gold and Black VS Team Rocket]]''. {{GnB|Gold}} and [[Whitney]] were greeted by them when they arrived in [[Ecruteak City]] for the [[Pokémon Summit]]. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
* In the English versions, the Kimono Girls were given different but still Japanese names; this is possibly due to the 17 character limit per line of the text boxes of the localized versions, which would make it impossible to fit many of the original names in a single line. The French<!-- and Italian--> localization originally also followed suit, but renamed them to their original Japanese names in Generation IV with the exception of Koume, who was referred to as Umeko instead. | |||
* In the French and German localizations of {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the name Keiko was used for different Kimono Girls. | |||
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, when the Kimono Girls are summoning the [[Legendary Pokémon]], they dance clockwise for Ho-Oh and counter-clockwise for Lugia. | |||
* [[Bill]]'s mother was once a Kimono Girl, according to {{tc|Poké Maniac}} Brent, who reveals trivia about Bill via [[Pokégear]]. | |||
* Both of the anime episodes which featured all of the Kimono Sisters had [[Masaaki Iwane]] as animation director. | |||
* In the anime episode ''[[EP226|Espeon, Not Included]]'', the four elder sisters' fans match the elemental themes of their Pokémon. | |||
* The はん ''han'' in the Japanese name of the Trainer class is an equivalent of the honorific さん ''san'' in the Kansai dialect. | |||
* The Kimono Girls dress in traditional Maiko attire. | |||
* In [[Pokémon GO]], since the Generation II update, if an Eevee is [[nickname]]d after Tamao or Sakura, it is [[List of cross-canon references|guaranteed]] to evolve into that Kimono Sister's respective Eeveelution, while usually the form Eevee evolves into is random outside of select conditions. | |||
* In ''[[Pokémon Evolutions]]'' the Kimono Girls wear [[Apricorn]] Poké Balls as decorations in their hair that match the design of their respective Eeveelution: | |||
** Naoko wears a [[Love Ball]] for Espeon. | |||
** Zuki wears a [[Moon Ball]] for Umbreon. | |||
** Sayo wears a [[Fast Ball]] for Jolteon. | |||
** Miki wears a [[Level Ball]] for Flareon. | |||
** Kuni wears a [[Lure Ball]] for Vaporeon. | |||

A Kimono Girl (Japanese: まいこはん Dancing Girl) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first appeared in the Generation II games. They appear as young women dressed in kimonos.
Kimono Girls usually appear as a quintet of Trainers who each own one of Eevee's evolutions.
In the core series games
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, five Kimono Girls live in Ecruteak City, and can be battled at the Ecruteak Dance Theater. Each owns one of the five Eeveelutions available in Generation II.
In Pokémon Crystal only, Kimono Girls Saito and Arita can appear in the Battle Tower as random opponents.
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Kimono Girls' roles are expanded, and they are met outside the dance theater as well: Zuki is met in Violet City after the player has retrieved the Pokémon Egg from one of Professor Elm's aide; Naoko is found being lost in Ilex Forest; Miki is being harassed by a Team Rocket Grunt in the dance theater in Ecruteak; Kuni is met in the Goldenrod Tunnel during the Goldenrod Radio Tower incident; and Sayo needs to be freed from being stuck on ice in the Ice Path.
After the played has earned all eight Johto Badges and obtained the Master Ball from Professor Elm, the player travels to Ecruteak City and battles the five Kimono Girl consecutively in order to obtain the Clear BellHG/Tidal BellSS. Zuki also tells the player that Ho-OhHG/LugiaSS is to be awakened and then controlled. The Kimono Girls then travel to the Bell TowerHG/Whirl IslandsSS, where they will perform a dance that summons Ho-OhHG/LugiaSS there.
While being faced at the Dance Theater, the Kimono Girls also reveal several things that they did off-screen: Zuki handed the Mystery Egg to Mr. Pokémon; Naoko witnessed the player defeating Team Rocket at the Slowpoke Well; Sayo watched as the player passed the Elder's test at the Dragon's Den; and Kuni saw the player taking down Team Rocket once and for all at the Radio Tower.
Kuni can later be encountered as a Pokéathlon participant at the Pokéathlon Dome.
In Generation IV, the girls' respective Eeveelutions are swapped; only Zuki and Kuni's partners remained the same from Generation II. Additionally, all of their Pokémon get a level raise from 17 to 38 and improved movesets, due to them being fought later in the game than in Generation II. Finally, Kuni's Japanese name, Sumomo, was altered to Komomo, probably to avoid confusion with Maylene, whose Japanese name is also Sumomo.

History
Original series
The Kimono Girls were called the Kimono Sisters in the original series. The dub retained their original Japanese names instead of using their localized English names.
In Trouble's Brewing, after Ash Ecruteak Gym victory, the gang bumped into Sakura, who took them to the tea ceremony her sisters were running after Misty inquired about a nearby advertising poster. Sumomo was the first sister the group met, greeting them formally. Tamao was seen next, demonstrating ikebana to a small audience. Later, they passed by the lone Koume playing her shamisen. Finally, they were treated to a quiet display of the art of tea making and drinking by Satsuki. Brock was entranced by them all and grew frightened when they were all together and called him out on his praise.
The sisters are skilled Trainers as well as tradition keepers. Upon proposing a challenge to the trio to battle for Sakura to join them, Sumomo and Satsuki both displayed their Vaporeon and Jolteon's abilities against Misty's Poliwhirl and Ash's Pikachu, respectively. Vaporeon defeated Poliwhirl and Pikachu won against Jolteon, but the latter only after Team Rocket's interruption.
When Sakura changed her mind about leaving at that time, Satsuki admitted that she and the other three weren't against Sakura leaving to begin her journey, only that they wanted her to not be dependent on others if she finally did.
In Espeon, Not Included, the four elder sisters attended a lucrative Pokémon Dance Academy class. However, the academy was another one of Team Rocket's schemes, and the Kimono sisters ended up handing over their Pokémon in exchange for private dancing lessons when they were actually stolen. With the help of Sakura's Espeon, evolved from her Eevee, as well as Misty's Corsola, the other four Eeveelutions were rescued, and the episode ended with the sisters wishing Sakura well on her own journey.
Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl
In An Egg Scramble!, the Kimono Girls made a cameo in Lyra's video about Johto during the Johto Festival.
Character
All of the sisters are sincere and polite. Satsuki is the oldest among the sisters and appears to do most of the talking, while Koume appears to be the most withdrawn and shy. The sisters are well-versed in many of the ancient arts like the tea ceremony and ikebana flower arrangements, and they continue to train themselves in these traditions.
They unintentionally excluded the youngest sister Sakura from many of their activities, namely because they deemed her to be immature and poorly trained. When Sakura revealed she wanted to be a Pokémon Trainer in Trouble's Brewing, they were initially doubtful of Sakura's commitments to her goal, but she gained their respect by the end of Espeon, Not Included.

Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys
The Kimono Girls made a small cameo in Gold and Black VS Team Rocket. Gold and Whitney were greeted by them when they arrived in Ecruteak City for the Pokémon Summit.
Trivia
- In the English versions, the Kimono Girls were given different but still Japanese names; this is possibly due to the 17 character limit per line of the text boxes of the localized versions, which would make it impossible to fit many of the original names in a single line. The French localization originally also followed suit, but renamed them to their original Japanese names in Generation IV with the exception of Koume, who was referred to as Umeko instead.
- In the French and German localizations of Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the name Keiko was used for different Kimono Girls.
- In HeartGold and SoulSilver, when the Kimono Girls are summoning the Legendary Pokémon, they dance clockwise for Ho-Oh and counter-clockwise for Lugia.
- Bill's mother was once a Kimono Girl, according to Poké Maniac Brent, who reveals trivia about Bill via Pokégear.
- Both of the anime episodes which featured all of the Kimono Sisters had Masaaki Iwane as animation director.
- In the anime episode Espeon, Not Included, the four elder sisters' fans match the elemental themes of their Pokémon.
- The はん han in the Japanese name of the Trainer class is an equivalent of the honorific さん san in the Kansai dialect.
- The Kimono Girls dress in traditional Maiko attire.
- In Pokémon GO, since the Generation II update, if an Eevee is nicknamed after Tamao or Sakura, it is guaranteed to evolve into that Kimono Sister's respective Eeveelution, while usually the form Eevee evolves into is random outside of select conditions.
- In Pokémon Evolutions the Kimono Girls wear Apricorn Poké Balls as decorations in their hair that match the design of their respective Eeveelution:
- Naoko wears a Love Ball for Espeon.
- Zuki wears a Moon Ball for Umbreon.
- Sayo wears a Fast Ball for Jolteon.
- Miki wears a Level Ball for Flareon.
- Kuni wears a Lure Ball for Vaporeon.
