Daisy Waterflower

*Not to be confused with Daisy Oak.*

**Daisy Waterflower** is one of Misty's sisters and one of the Cerulean Gym Leaders, alongside Misty. With how negatively Misty's sisters were treated by the timeline reset, Daisy is the one of them that's the least of a scumbag.

## Biography

### Past

Daisy was born as the first child of the then-current Cerulean Gym Leader.

As a child, she had been negatively influenced by her parents, who hated the youngest child Misty. This led into Daisy and her other sisters, Violet and Lily, neglecting Misty at best and treating her as a servant at worst. Despite this, Daisy acknowledged Misty's skill as a Trainer and kept her around for the Gym's sake. However, when she turned 20, Daisy learned she was not above consequences: the ghost of Miki the Charizard, upset at her trainer for killing his brother over an accident, came across the Cerulean Gym, and seeing the abuse Misty received, she started mind-raping Daisy, as well as Violet and Lily. Believing the mind rape comes from not putting much value into battling, Daisy went on a trip to Seafoam Islands, where she trained her Pokemon for a year. During that year, she managed to win a fight with the Angel, Articuno. Knowing Violet and Lily would try to get rid of Misty, she also gave Misty a Trainer License so she'd go on a Pokemon Journey, from which she'd return after a year.

A year after she set on her journey, Daisy reencountered Misty and challenged her at a battle for the ownership of the Cerulean Gym. Daisy lost, which led to her trying to kill Misty, only to receive another dosage of mind rape from Miki. That and Misty expressing her disgust at Daisy's actions caused Daisy to develop a guilt complex. Afterwards, she tried making amends to Misty, but not only was Misty refusing, Violet and Lily were seeing Daisy as a traitor for attempting to be nice with Misty.

### Cerulean Arc

Daisy watched from nearby how Ash's Nidoking brutalized Violet and Lily, and then were arrested by Tobias. Learning that Ash let his Nidoking go on a rampage in Cerulean Gym because of her mistreatment of Misty, Daisy attempts to get Ash to punish her, only to be stopped by Misty, who was convinced by MissingNo that Daisy really wants to change.

## Trivia

* Daisy's past of abusing Misty is taken from *Pokemon Reset Bloodlines*. Because Merger hates how Daisy was stripped of all redeemable qualities that make her somewhat iconic, he decided to take those redeemable qualities and use them to deconstruct Daisy's portrayal in *Reset*. The result is a Daisy with a severe guilt complex.
	+ One could easily see Daisy as the Anastasia to Misty's Cinderella and Violet and Lily's Drizella. Ironically, Daisy is the blonde, and Misty is the redhead.
* Unlike Violet and Lily and much like Misty, Daisy is naturally beautiful. This is to establish the Beauty Equals Goodness trope.
* According to the logs, Lorelei would be the perfect role model for Daisy, being both an Elite Four member and a model.
