Linnea

Linnea (Japanese name: Asami) is a minor recurring character in the Pokémon anime, specifically in Pokémon the Series: XY and XYZ.

She is one of the Furisode Girls who serve as assistants and loyal supporters to Valerie, the Gym Leader of Laverre City (in the Kalos region). Linnea helps out at the Laverre Gym, often appearing alongside the other Furisode Girls (like Kali, Katherine, and Blossom) during events, battles, and gym-related activities. She first appears in the episode "A Fashionable Battle!" (where Ash challenges Valerie) and shows up in a few subsequent episodes tied to that Gym arc.

In the anime, she's portrayed as polite, dedicated to her role, and enthusiastic about fashion and Pokémon, fitting the elegant, fairy-tale-inspired theme of Laverre City and its Gym. She doesn't have a major personal storyline or her own Pokémon battles spotlighted (unlike some other side characters), but she's part of the supporting cast around Valerie.
