Harriet (Japanese: ヒスイ Hisui) is one of the main characters of The Power of Us.
History
Harriet was first seen in Fula City, where she was startled by an approaching Sunflora. Later, she was approached by Townes, Hoyt, and Miles, who offered her some lemons, only for her to be startled by their Phanpy, and she subsequently walked off. Then, she visited Toren and gave him some documents to give to the Wind Festival administration, only for Toren to knock a vial of essence of Sweet Scent near her.
Returning home, Harriet found her house overrun by Pokémon, forcing her to sleep outside. The next morning, she woke up and found more Pokémon sleeping next to her. She visited Toren once again and demanded answers, causing Toren to realize the essence of Sweet Scent that spilled near her was attracting Pokémon to her. Toren promised to find a solution, only to be called off for his science presentation. Harriet remained in the Research Pavilion to watch Toren's performance, which allowed her to discover Team Rocket in the lab, and she alerted the others as the trio fled.
Harriet later accompanied Toren and Risa to the Pokémon Center after Risa's Eevee was injured in the stampede caused by Team Rocket's smoke bomb. The following day, Fula City's wind turbines stopped turning and the eternal flame is revealed to have gone missing. Harriet met up with Mayor Oliver, Risa, and Ash at the stadium; and later Toren, who revealed that a trail of his stolen Smeargle ink was used in the eternal flame theft. The group made their way up a mountain just in time to stop a pair of Pokémon hunters from harming Zeraora and Margo.
The sudden explosion of Toren's stolen Effect Spore and the subsequent blaze led Harriet to join forces with Ash and the others. She elected herself to go to the abandoned power plant and get it started, revealing that she helped construct the old facility. Her faith in her Pokémon entourage, which she called her "scamps", improved after they helped put out the fire blocking the path to the facility and then pushed the starter turbine to get the larger wind turbine moving again. The old turbine helped blow Toren's Lum Berry elixir into Fula City and clear the air of the toxic Effect Spore gas.
Harriet later joined Ash and the others at the stadium. After the blaze was put out and the eternal flame was returned, she witnessed Lugia as it soared through the sky. Harriet later attended the Wind Festival's closing ceremony and released a lantern into the sky.
Character
Harriet is a gruff woman who disliked Pokémon and became annoyed whenever they were around. This stemmed from a past incident where she lost her beloved Snubbull in a fire. Harriet grew bitter over time and blamed herself for Snubbull's death, leading to her dislike of Pokémon. By the end of the movie, however, she got over this and grew to like Pokémon again.
