Serena (Pokémon Anime Series)

Serena is a Pokémon Trainer and Performer from the Pokémon Anime. She was one of Ash Ketchum's traveling companions in the Kalos series along with Clemont and Bonnie. She is a fan favorite and the focus of many fanworks. While she does have a counterpart in Pokémon's Gameverse also named Serena, and a counterpart in Pokéspe named Yvonne Gabena, these characters are distinct enough for their own articles.
The Pokemon she is most associated with are Delphox, Pancham and Sylveon.
