### Etymology

**Cure Cyan** (キュアシアン?) - Her Cure alias comes from the name of a color and the given name *Cyan*. The English word meaning is "greenish blue", ultimately derived from Greek *kyanos*.

### Powers

**"Bloom, soft breeze of nature! Cure Cyan!"**
咲くよ、自然のそよ風！キュアシアン！
*Saku yo, shizen no soyokaze! Kyua Shian!*

Cure Cyan holds the power of the green rainbow, which gives her the ability to use wind based attacks. She is the Pretty Cure of nature and needs her Color Commune to transform. Her transformation speech is *"Pretty Cure! Magical Paint Over!"*. Later she also learns to summon a holy item with which she can use more powerful attacks.

In the German dubs, Cyan introduces herself with **"Der sanfte Wind der Natur! Cure Cyan!"**, which can be translated as "The soft wind of nature! Cure Cyan!".

### Weapons

### Attacks
