==Appearance==
Iono is a young girl of a slightly short stature. She wears a yellow sweater and a pair of Magnemite-shaped hair pins that seem to move on their own, mimicking her expressions. Under her sweater she is wearing a halter neck top exposing her shoulders. Iono also has light blue and pink hair with a bow shaped design in the front and sharp pointed teeth. She also wears a necklace and a pair of metallic grey boots, each attached with a metal screw. A single grey legging covers Iono's right leg, while a single black strap is tied onto her left leg.
==Personality==
Iono is a perky, vivacious and over-the-top celebrity. She is also tomboyish and brash, referring to herself as "boku", while also being cutesy. She has a habit of "smashing languages" together while moving animatedly, which she calls "Iono-ese".
She is also highly enthusiastic with her fame and career, particularly caring for subscriptions by collaborating with popular figures. Through her conversations with her fellow Gym Leaders, more of her personality can be seen; she has an inferiority complex to Tulip, clashes with Brassius (who claims she doesn't know the meaning of "avant-garde"), while Grusha believes that she is more interested in maintaining numbers than the content of her streams. She also used to read comments, but stopped after an incident because of "THOSE fans", implying that she is not used to negativity. 
==Etymology==
Iono is a wordplay on the electrical "ion" and the slang "I dunno". It may also be referring to the ionosphere.
Correlating to the plant-themed naming of the franchise, her name might also be derived from the plant Chionanthus.
