Flannery in the anime

Flannery first appeared in Poetry Commotion!. She is voiced by 夏樹リオ Rio Natsuki in Japanese, Lisa Ortiz in the English dub and Luciana Baroli in the Brazilian Portuguese dub.

In the anime, Ash and his company see a Slugma running from a girl with blazing red-hair. They find out that she is none other than the new Lavaridge Town Gym Leader, Flannery, who had been training with her Slugma. They are secretly helped by fake workers, who are actually Jessie and James of Team Rocket, an old man and a judge who is actually Flannery's grandfather. Flannery's grandfather saves the day when Team Rocket attempt to steal Flannery's Torkoal. In the resulting Team Rocket battle, one of her Slugma evolves into a Magcargo.

In Going, Going, Yawn, Ash has his Lavaridge Gym battle. In the battle, he uses his Corphish, Pikachu and Treecko. Despite Corphish being hit by a Yawn from Flannery's Slugma, Ash manages to defeat Torkoal and win the Heat Badge.

Her passion for Pokémon burns stronger and hotter than a volcano. She is admired for her beauty and strength. She's only been Gym Leader for a short time, and she tries to act intimidating but can't quite get it right. After she loses to the main character, she realized that she was trying too hard to be someone that she wasn't and had to run things her own way.

Her grandfather was once a member of the Hoenn Elite Four. She has apparently battled with Norman sometime in the past.

In addition to the Heat Badge, Flannery gives out TM50 (Overheat), in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Pokémon Emerald. This is a powerful Fire-type attack that sharply lowers the user's Sp. Att.

In the Pokémon Special manga

In the Pokémon Special, Flannery tried to protect Mt. Chimney from having its flames doused by Team Aqua. However, even with the help of Sapphire, she was unable to prevent the water-worshiping team from causing the volcano to become dormant.

During the battle, she was also assisted by Tabitha of Team Magma. The two seemed to be attracted to each other. Later, when all the Hoenn Gym Leaders chose sides, Flannery aligned herself with Team Magma. The destruction later caused by Kyogre and Groudon changed her mind.

Flannery is also apparently close friends with Winona.
