Serena (Japanese: セレナ Serena) is the female player character in Pokémon X and Y, and also serves as the rival in the same games if the player chooses to play as the male character. Her male counterpart is Calem.
In the games
As the protagonist
Serena is a girl living in Vaniville Town with her friends Calem, Tierno, Trevor, and Shauna. She recently moved into Vaniville Town. Her mom owns a Rhyhorn and Fletchling, the latter of which wakes Serena up at the start of the game.
As a non-playable character
Serena is a young girl who lives in Vaniville Town when the protagonist moves into town. Serena is the main rival of the character, choosing the starter Pokémon which is super-effective to the player's. She is also the character who teaches the player and Shauna how to catch a Pokémon, catching a Bunnelby with the use of her Fletchling. Soon after, she can be seen in Santalune Forest with the other friends.
Serena is the child of two prominent Pokémon battlers, and is seen as one of the two best battlers of the group of friends, alongside the protagonist.
At Route 7, Serena battles with the player against Tierno and Trevor. She then helps the player defeat Team Flare at Glittering Cave to save the fossil assistant, and is given the fossil not chosen afterward. At the Tower of Mastery in Shalour City, Serena battles the player for the chance to get the Mega Ring.
The next time Serena battles the player is in front of the Coumarine Gym.
When the group of friends meets up and decides to go to the haunted area in Route 14, Serena is the only one of the friends to not go to the house, claiming that she has to train. She then helps the player defeat Team Flare at the Poké Ball Factory.
The next time Serena battles the player is in front of the Anistar Gym. After the player defeats the gym, she will ask for a rematch, but cancels her challenge after Lysandre announces his plan of eradicating all life forms not a part of Team Flare. She then helps the player defeat Team Flare get to the legendary Pokémon and defeat Team Flare for good.
As the player traverses Victory Road, Serena appears by a derelict altar and demands one last battle before their final challenge.
After the player enters the Hall of Fame and battles at the Battle Maison, Serena can be battled in Kiloude City, at which point she has obtained a Mega Ring of her own. When defeated for the first time here, she will give the player an Absolite and tell the player to meet Professor Sycamore in Anistar City. She can be battled at Kiloude City once per day.

Vaniville Town
- "Welcome to Vaniville Town! My name's Serena. I'm your neighbor."
- "The esteemed Professor Sycamore lives here in the Kalos region. I was told he has a request for five kids, including us. But I'm a little surprised he knows who you are. You did just move to Vaniville, after all."
Aquacorde Town
- "This is the meeting place, <player>. Here, let me introduce you. Everyone, this is <player>."
- "So, <player>, this is Tierno. He's got some serious dance moves, and... This is Trevor. He never misses a single question on his tests, but he's a little shy..."
- "Why don't you decide what we should call you?"
- "Nice to meet you, Chespin/Fennekin/Froakie. I'm Serena. Because of you, I can be a real Pokémon Trainer. Thank you!"
- "In Kalos, kids are chosen to carry a Pokédex and go on an adventure. But you need to give that letter to your mom before you go."
- "If you have a Pokémon partner you have nothing to fear from wild Pokémon."
Route 2
- "Well... Mom and Dad may be good, but that has nothing to do with me. OK, now, watch carefully, you two."
- "Make sure you weaken a Pokémon before throwing any Poké Balls at it."
- "Shauna... What do you think your Chespin/Fennekin/Froakie is inside of right now? Here, I'll share some Poké balls with the two of you."
- "Sure. You can catch the Pokémon around here just by throwing a Poké Ball near them."
- "When you catch a wild Pokémon, it makes your Pokémon stronger too. Good luck!"
Santalune Forest
- "Santalune Forest huh? Might be a good place to test my skills."
- After passing patch before Lass Anna
- "Do you have any Poké Balls?"
- "Here you go."
- "The weaker a wild Pokémon is, the easier it is to catch."
- "So, you're the first to arrive. Looks like my new neighbor is someone with a lot of potential."
Route 3
- "I'm going to go to Santalune City's Gym and challenge the Gym Leader. You see, Pokémon Trainers find out how good they really are by challenging the Leaders in the Pokémon Gyms."
- "It's because Mom and Dad taught me so much. Here, I have something for you guys: "Adventure Rules." I wrote down 10 different tips every Trainer should know. Here's one for you! If you are puzzled about something, try looking in these rules."
Sycamore Pokémon Lab
- "Sorry to have kept you waiting."
- "A Pokémon battle, huh? Sounds good. Let's get started."
- After battling Professor Sycamore
- "You'll be together for a long time, so just take your time."
- "I feel that being different from others makes me special. Mastering Mega Evolution will definitely set me apart from other trainers!"
- "There's something I want to talk to you about. I'll be waiting for you in Café Soleil, neighbor!"
South Boulevard
- "Could you come here for a second?"
- "Oh, it's Lysandre and... Is that Diantha? Just so you know, neighbor, Lysandre is the head of Lysandre Labs, which created the Holo Caster, a video-messaging device. You already know who Diantha is, right? She is one of the most famous movie stars in the world, after all. I wonder what the two of them are doing here together?"
- "My name is Serena, and this is..."
- "I guess if you're a Pokémon Trainer, you battle everyone, no matter who they are."
- "Oh, that's right! I have something to ask you, neighbor. Would you be willing to compete with me to see which one of us will become stronger? I know we set off on our journey just after you arrived in Vaniville... But we are neighbors, and I think it would be fun to have a competition with you. Just so you know, I won't lose though."
Route 7
- "We should all have a Pokémon battle. Now, how should we pair up? Hmm... Let's go with Tierno and Trevor against <player's nickname> and me."
- Yes:"OK, <player's nickname>. Since we're neighbors, we might as well battle together, right?"
- No:"Oh, I get it. You don't just charge right into battle blindly, do you?"
- "It sure is interesting to see how different each Trainer's style is. Well, I guess we should head off to Ambrette Town, then."
Ambrette Town
- "This is Ambrette Town. You just go through the aquarium to get to Cyllage City, but... First, we should go to the Fossil Lab and have them tell us about Fossils. We might even learn something about those mysterious stones related to Mega Evolution."
- "Wait for me."
- "My name is Serena, and this is <player>. We're researching Mega Evolution, and we were wondering if you know anything about it."
- "Oh. I see... Well, if you don't know anything about Mega Evolution, then..."
- "What should I do? Well, I'm already here, maybe I should go talk to that assistant... Are you going to Glittering Cave, <player's nickname>?"
Glittering Cave
- "<Player>."
- "There are two members of Team Flare... Well then, are you ready to team up and battle them?"
- No:"Need to get ready? OK! I'll be waiting."
- Yes:"I just fought with another one of these Team Flare guys."
- "If you just want to make people in Team Flare happy, why don't you just do that? But if you're going to go around threatening other people, we won't let you get away with it!"
- "I'm a Trainer! Protecting my partners is what I do... Come on, let's go look for that researcher from the Fossil Lab."
- "Did you find him?"
- "Are you OK? Did Team Flare come here?"
- "Don't worry about it."
- "It looks like he was completely absorbed in looking for Fossils..."
- "Well then, I'll take this one."
- "Well, we went looking for the assistant, and found that suspicious group called Team Flare as well... I guess I should train more so I can travel safely with those Team Flare people running around. In that case, I guess the best thing to do would be challenge the Cyllage City Gym."
Geosenge Town (First Visit)
- "<Player>, was someone from Team Flare here just now?"
- No:"You don't need to protect me! I chased a Team Flare Grunt here. But the only thing past here is a dead end... There's something very weird about Team Flare..."
- Yes:"He was here... But he isn't anymore, is he? And the only thing past here is a dead end... There’s something very weird about Team Flare..."
Tower of Mastery
- "Some Pokémon evolve through friendship, and others only evolve in certain places."
- "Trust... In other words, the bond between Trainer and Pokémon!"
- "<Player>, let's battle for it! Whatever the reason, a battle gives us an opportunity to compete and see who Vaniville Town's best trainer really is!"
- "Are you ready?"
- No:"You're very cautions, aren't you?"
- Yes:"I will master Mega Evolution and set myself apart from other Trainers. I'll also do it for my Pokémon--we've come so far together, and they never stopped believing in me, their Trainer."
- "You and your Pokémon are stronger... I can tell just by looking at you. But I will not lose. No... I'm going to win!"
- "It was so strong! I could feel how powerful the bond between you and your partner is. Losing is frustrating, but... You will definitely be able to Mega Evolve your Pokémon! I'm sure of it!"
- "I'll bet the professor will be happy if you master Mega Evolution. That's one way you can show mastery as a Trainer."
Shalour City (after obtaining the Mega Ring)
- "Here, neighbor. you should use this. If you use the HM Surf, you can travel over the water. When I think about it, it's kinda amazing how a person like you came to Kalos and ended up traveling with me. It's kinda like destiny in a way."
Coumarine City (Holo Caster)
- "<Player>, I challenge you to a battle in front of the Gym! Prepare yourself!"
In front of Coumarine City Gym
- "I'm sorry I'm late! So, could you show me Mega Evolution? Of course, whether you use Mega Evolution in battle or not is entirely up to you, but... I'd like to know what the potential of a Pokémon really is...
- "As a Pokémon Trainer, I find you really interesting."
- "Even though we set out from Vaniville Town at the same time, you somehow became stronger than I am. What could be so different about us? Well, good luck with your Gym Battle. Do your best, OK?"
Route 14
- "Oh, hi, <player's nickname>."
- "I'll leave filling up the Pokédex to you guys, Trevor. I don't like it when everyone does the same thing anyway..."
- "There sure are many different kinds of Pokémon in Kalos. Now it's my turn! Let's have a Pokémon battle, <player>!"
- "I really enjoy battling with you, but I'm getting tired of losing every time..."
- "Oh. Hi, Shauna. When did you start watching?"
- "So, Tierno, have you found any good Pokémon for your dance team?"
- "Hmm... I think I'll pass! I'm sure it's just a rumor, and I want to spend some time with my Pokémon before heading to Laverre City."
Poké Ball Factory
- "We were supposed to meet them here, too... I wonder what the matter is."
- "Team Flare? There might be something happening inside. Let's check it out while the guard is gone!"
- "With a red suit like that, you must be a member of Team Flare, right? Did you have to take a part-time job at the Poké Ball Factory to pay for that ugly suit?"
- "I'll take care of this! You go on ahead!"
- "We'll see about that! Sorry I'm late!"
- "You might want to check your numbers. Are you really even scientists?"
- "Can you help me fight them, neighbor?"
- No:"Got it!"
- Yes:"Let's go!"
- "I think you should pick first."
- "Th-thank you! This seems like a lot..."
- "So, they stole Poké Balls, right? That means they must be planning something they need many Pokémon for. I heard that Team Flare was also behind the trouble at the Power Plant. Pokémon... And electricity... What could they be after?
- "Team Flare messed everything up. It's not a good time right now."
- "That's right, Trevor. Team Flare... ... ..."
- "Thank you. Everyone's OK, thanks to you! But if I keep relying on you like this, going on this journey will lose its meaning..."
Route 17 (Holo Caster)
- "<Player>. This time, I challenge you to a battle in front of Anistar City's Gym! Prepare yourself!"
Anistar City
- "<Player>!
- "Let me show you how much stronger I am! I did say we were going to be rivals back in that café in Lumiose City, after all."
- "Am I just not good enough to bring out the best in my Pokémon?"
- "My Pokémon are so much stronger now, but you and your Pokémon are still one step ahead of us... Anyway, I'll heal your Pokémon. Here."
- "You and your Pokémon are good enough to beat the Gym Leader. Go for it!"
- "I'm sure getting the Psychic Badge wasn't too much trouble for you. Right, <player>?"
- "I think I'll challenge you to a daily battle when this trip is all said and done. Seems like the neighborly thing to do! Let's have a rematch! Battling though Trainers is the best way to get stronger, after all!"
- "What could this be?"
- After Lysander's Holo Caster broadcast
- "What... was Lysandre saying? Wiping the slate clean? Eliminating everyone by Team Flare?! <Player>! Let's go look for Team Flare's headquarters! Where could Lysandre be? Perhaps he's were we first met him... In Luminose City..."
Geosenge Town
- "When I was in Lysandre's lab, the masked heroes told me what is going on. They also told me what Team Flare plans to do with the ultimate weapon! C'mon! Let's stop Team Flare... No... We have to stop Lysandre himself. The world isn't corrupt enough to give up on yet!"
Team Flare Secret HQ
- "We're not going to let you use the ultimate weapon!"
- "But that doesn't give you the right to destroy everyone but the ones Team Flare chooses!"
- "That's different! We competed for it, but..."
- "What about Pokémon?"
- "Tears... Why?!"
- "It's not over yet! <Player's nickname>! Let's look for the Legendary Pokémon! Trainers are protected by Pokémon, but they protect Pokémon, too, right? Look! You can see the entrance to the lower floors over there!"
- "I get what Lysandre is trying to say, but his methods are insane!
- "Let's hurry."
- "I don't believe it... What are you doing here?"
- "..."
- "I'm the one who should be apologizing. You came all the way out here, and I wasn't very considerate of your feelings... You are right. Friends should stick together. <Player's nickname>, we should all go together, right?"
- Of course!: "I knew you'd agree! OK! Shauna, <player's nickname> and I will go ahead. Stay close to us, OK?"
- But...: "I know you're concerned because it's dangerous. But it would be more dangerous for her to go back alone... Shauna, let's go together!
- "The ultimate weapon... What will happen if it's used?"
- "Anyway, we have to hurry and stop it!"
- "It's an electronic lock. What should we do?"
- "Amazing, Shauna! You and Clemont's device are both full of surprises..."
- "So... We're finally here. The Legendary Pokémon is inside. Let's go help it!"
- "We're in the deepest part of the headquarters... It's somehow hard to breathe in here."
- "Oh, Shauna... This again? <Player>! You take care of things here! I'll protect Shauna!"
- "What a relief... Now they can't use the ultimate weapon."
- "The Legendary Pokémon is gone, so you can't use the ultimate weapon anymore, right? You don't have to worry about the future all by yourself... I think everyone should work together to make a better, beautiful world..."
- "<Player>! Shauna! Let's get out of here!"
Geosenge Town
- "Thank you... We're all fine. Are you guys all OK, Tierno?"
- "Thank you, <player's nickname>. I have so much respect for you as a friend. It's because I respect you that I want to beat you in battle as your rival! I really mean it!"
Victory Road
- "<player>! Wait a second!"
- "I've been thinking ever since all that trouble in Geosenge. Lysandre chose only Team Flare. You and I chose everyone but Team Flare. But since our positions forced our hands, you can't really say any of us were right. That's why I feel that... If both sides have something to say, maybe it's best to meet halfway... So, I made a decision... From now on, I don't want to battle just to win but to see how you and your Pokémon think and feel! That's the kind of Pokémon Battle I'm going to have with you right now!"
- "So, I still can't beat you... You know, it's because I met you that I was able to get this far... Well, our journey's not over yet! Who knows how strong we'll get."
- "It's hard to put a finger on it exactly, but I feel like you and I are alike. And that's why I didn't want to lose to you. But I think the reason we're so alike is because we have so many things in common. I'm really happy that we're friends..."
- "I'm renewing my rivalry with you! Since you're my rival, I want you to become a stronger and stronger Pokémon Trainer. We'll keep getting stronger, too, of course! I suppose the first step is mastering the power that comes from the bond between me and my Pokémon, just like you did! Do your best at the Pokémon League! An awesome Trainer like you can handle it!"
Kiloude City
- "Hey, <player nickname>? Would you battle with us?"
- No: "Oh, that's disappointing."
- Yes: "My Pokémon and I will show you what makes us special!"
- "I'll think about what you did well and use this loss to make me better!"
- "When we first set off on our journey, I thought it was really important how different I was from everyone else."
- "But that doesn't really matter, does it?"
- "Of course I'm different from others."
- "I'm the only me!"
- Menu interface (voice clips)
- "Sorry..."
- "Okay!"
- "Leave it to me!"
- "Thank you!"
- "You're kidding me..."
- "Not OK!"
- Story Event - Serena's Dessert Party
- "Oh! Hi there, Jasmine."
- "Sorry if we startled you. It's just that you seemed worried about something."
- "I can see why that worries you. I wish there was something I could do to help..."
- "I know! Why don't we make a delicious cake?"
- "In Kalos, we make desserts that can cheer up our Pokémon and strengthen our bonds with them."
- "I think eating desserts is a good way to fill Pokémon and their Trainers with joy."
- "All right! Let's get ready to make a cake! I hope you'll help, too, <player>.
- "This forest looks like the perfect place for us to gather the ingredients for the cake!"
- Why a forest, though?: "Because I want to use fresh Berries to make the cake."
- We can't get them in town?: "Nope! I want to use fresh Berries to make the cake."
- "I'm sure I can whip up something delicious. Just leave it to me!"
- "Oh, hello, Wally."
- "Don't worry about it. You seem to be having fun training with Gallade."
- "In that case...maybe we should make a big cake! One big enough for a party!"
- "Hehe. Of course! Let's do it together!"
- "Thanks to everyone's help, we managed to gather all the ingredients we need."
- "This should be enough for us to make a big cake, but..."
- Are we missing something?: "We don't have a cake pan that's the right size."
- What's wrong?: "I just realized that I need to look for a cake pan that's the right size."
- "I hope we can find one in a shop around here."
- "Good idea!"
- "<Player> can go with me, and you and Wally can go together, Jasmine."
- "Hey, how about that row of shops over there? Let's go down the line and check out each one!"
- "Hehe! We did it! We found the perfect cake pan."
- "I'm glad we visited all those shops, even if it did take a while. Now we need to hurry and meet up with Jasmine--"
- "Oh! Look!"
- "U-um! Elesa!"
- "I've been a huge fan of yours for such a long time! You're so glamorous!"
- "Good luck!"
- "Wow... Elesa is so cool."
- "What's wrong, Fennekin?"
- "What?! Our bag of ingredients is gone!"
- "I'm so sorry. It's all my fault--I shouldn't have let myself get distracted."
- "And after we worked so hard to gather them..."
- Let's go look for those ingredients!: "Yeah...you're right. Now's not the time to get down on myself."
- Whoever did this is gonna pay!: "Yeah, that's right. Now's not the time to get down on myself."
- "We need to do something about this so we can cheer up our Pokémon!"
- "Let's track down whoever stole the ingredients and get them back!"
- "That has to be it. And masked men can only mean..."
- "I have a good idea where Team Break might be hiding."
- "Probably, if it comes to that. But they should understand if we explain the situation to them."
- "As long as they haven't done anything else bad, we can let them off the hook this time if they just give us back our ingredients."
- "Yes. That's very important to us."
- "I can't believe you... Don't you know how hard it is for Trainers when their Pokémon are feeling down?"
- "If you're going to keep doing things that upset people..."
- "then I'm going to show you just how upset I am through a Pokémon battle! And no matter what, I won't lose!"
- "There's enough for everyone. Eat as much as you like!"
- "O-of course not! Please help yourselves."
- "Oh! Did you and Brock just have a battle, Elesa? I would have loved to see that!"
- "I guess the cake was a success, then! Thanks for your help, <player>. I couldn't have done this without you."
- I'm glad this cheered everyone up!: "Me, too! Don't underestimate the power of desserts!"
- The power of desserts is amazing!: "Yes, it is! Don't underestimate the power of desserts!"
- "Still, seeing everyone here having so much fun together..."
- "I can't help but think that this might actually be the best way to cheer up our Pokémon!"
- Pokémon Center
- Special Serena's Dessert Party story event intro with Jasmine
- "Back in Kalos, I used to make desserts a lot."

- "Hehe. Then maybe we should have ourselves an impromptu dessert party."
- "How about you, <player>? Would you like to help us put this together?"
- Special Serena's Dessert Party story event conversation with Jasmine
- "Eating desserts can fill people and Pokémon alike with joy, don't you think?"
