Kelly (Japanese: カナタ Kanata) is a character in the Pokémon anime. She is a Pokémon Coordinator from Lilycove City who first appeared in Pokéblock, Stock, and Berry.

History

A resident of Lilycove City, Kelly and May became fast friends, as well as rivals. Kelly's mother owns a Berry store, which May visited with Kelly. It was here that May learned how to make Pokéblocks for the first time.

The two also faced off against each other in the Lilycove Contest. Using her Combusken, May got off to a bad start, but gradually made her way through the appeals round. Kelly, on the other hand, was very successful in making her way through. Eventually, Kelly faced off against May in the final round of the Contest.

Her Grumpig battled hard, but it was no match for May's Fire-type Pokémon. May won the Contest, and earned her third Ribbon.

She reappeared in a flashback in AG120.

Kelly was also seen very briefly at home watching the Hoenn Grand Festival on TV in Deceit and Assist.

Trivia

  • Kelly's Japanese name (Kanata) and May's Japanese name (Haruka) both appear in the line "Haruka kanata umi no mukō no" from the first Advanced Generation opening theme (Haruka kanata meaning "faraway").
    • The next line also coincidentally contains Minamo City, the city where Kelly is from.
