Lana (Pokemon Anime)

Lana, also known as Suiren and Nereida, is one of the main characters from the Pokemon series.
== Charactah Account ==
Ash first runs into Lana while she is fishing a Bruxish out of the sea, meeting her formally at school later. Her primary Pokémon is a Popplio, but also has a Lapras who serves as her ride Pokémon in the sea.
Lana is generally a pleasant and nice girl. As her appearance suggests, she likes Water-type Pokémon and has a great connection with them (though she is generally kind and caring to all her Pokémon). While she is usually quiet, she is actually a girl of action. However, despite her quietness, she apparently gets incredibly embarrassed very easily when teased about romance, as shown when people asked her numerous times if Ash was her boyfriend. Additionally, while Lana usually keeps her cool, she sometimes gets upset and loses her temper, often as a result of Pokémon being mistreated or her sisters teasing her.
On the other side, Lana has a mischievous part to her personality. She sometimes scares her friends with haunted stories and likes to joke about having seen or caught a very rare Pokémon in the sea (for example, Kyogre), with Ash usually being the main person to fall for her jokes.
