She is bold and adventurous. She appears to be a wild child and has been seen swinging from vines in the forests in order to get from place to place. She also seems to have very good reflex in avoiding attacks. Like Misty at the start of their journey, Ash is in the dark that Iris may or may not be a [[Gym Leader]]. Also like Misty, Iris thinks Ash is a little kid but helps him out since he doesn't know a lot about the Unova region.

In [[BW092]], Iris entered the [[Junior Cup]]. Her first round was against her [[rival]], [[Georgia]]. Iris used [[Iris' Dragonite|Dragonite]] and Georgia used [[Beartic]]. Despite Dragonite not listening to her, Iris defeats Georgia and advances to the quarter-finals. In the 2nd round, she battled Dawn. Dawn used her [[Dawn's Mamoswine|Mamoswine]] and Iris used her Dragonite again. Dragonite listened to her at first, but he disobeyed her again. Despite that, Iris defeats Dawn and advances to the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, Iris battled Ash. Ash used his [[Krokorok]] and Iris used her Dragonite. During the battle, Dragonite was starting to listen to Iris which is why she was winning. The battle started to take a turn when [[Ash's Krookodile|Ash's Krokorok]] evolved into [[Krookodile]]. [[Ash's Krookodile]] learned [[Dragon Claw]] and he used it on Dragonite, which is super-effective. After he was hit by that attack, Dragonite started to lose control. Ash's Krookodile then used [[Crunch]] on Dragonite. Still not listening to Iris, Dragonite used [[Dragon Rush]], which Ash's Krookodile dodged the attack by using [[Dig]]. Then he jumped out and used [[Stone Edge]], which was also super-effective. This attack knocked out Dragonite giving Ash the win and Iris was eliminated from the Junior Cup.

In [[BW100]], [[Jervis]] suggests to go through [[Opelucid City]] to get to the [[Unova League]] in [[Vertress City]]. Iris quickly says she would rather pass through the [[Dragon Village|Village of Dragons]], supporting the fact that she's been trying to avoid [[Opelucid City]]. Ash and [[Cilan (anime)|Cilan]] agree, to Iris' relief. Later in the episode she makes them dress as women to get revenge on three women for calling her Pokémon "unattractive." After arriving at the village, she had her Axew examined by the elder and she gave it her seal of approval. After dealing with a Hydreigon that belong to her friend Drayden challenges her to a battle, which she accepts. At Opelucid City, she explains that she didn't fit in with the other kids. After the battle it is revealed that Iris was to eventually succeed Drayden as the new Opelucid Gym Leader.

It hasn't been used in battle much, but when it does, it is shown to be weak and is likely to be a very young Pokémon. It was seen to dream of evolving all the way up to be a [[Haxorus]]. Axew's moves are Dragon Rage, Scratch, Outrage and Giga Impact.

Excadrill is an incredibly powerful [[Pokémon]] and has powerful moves such as [[Drill Run]] which makes Excadrill a powerhouse of Iris' team.

Iris (Japanese: アイリス Iris) is a young girl who is one of Ash's travelling companions in the Unova region. She takes on the role similar to Misty's. As such, a running gag consists of her calling Ash a little kid, more recently just to tease him which annoys him.

Appearance

Iris wears a cream-colored top with a pink collar and cuffs, a pink skirt with a big ribbon, white leggings which are colored yellow at the ends of the legs and pink and white shoes with yellow straps.

Biography

When she was little, Iris spent most of her time playing with wild Pokémon. One day, a Drilbur took Iris' friend Patrat's home. For ten days, Iris kept challenging the Drilbur but Iris continued losing to it. On the tenth try, she was able to fight, but Drilbur almost fell from the top of a cliff. Iris saved him, and he became her Pokémon.

Iris, close up

They entered the tournament of the Dragon Village, and won. During the final battle Drilbur evolved into Excadrill. However, Iris and Excadrill lost their 100th battle against Drayden, who secretly nods to the Elder. Iris is a wild girl that Ash met while travelling in the Unova region. Ash first encountered Iris by mistaking her hair for a Pokémon (since he saw her in a bush picking berries and used his Pokédex, which told him that the Pokémon was in her hair.) He then threw a Poké Ball at her head and she then yells at Ash but soon becomes quick friends with his Pikachu, by hugging him and poking his cheeks which caused him to zap her, for Pikachu gets mad when he gets annoyed by another trainer. Her goal used to be a secret to Ash and Cilan, though it is revealed in BW030, that her goal was to become a dragon master. She also wishes to see the legendary Pokémon Zekrom.

Iris, like Ash, Dawn and Misty seems to have her partner Pokémon stay out of its Poké Ball on most occasions. Her partner Pokémon is Axew, the Tusk Pokémon. However, despite the fact, it doesn't go into its Poké Ball and Axew just jumps into Iris' hair whenever she decides to actively go somewhere.

She is bold and adventurous. She appears to be a wild child and has been seen swinging from vines in the forests in order to get from place to place. She also seems to have very good reflex in avoiding attacks. Like Misty at the start of their journey, Ash is in the dark that Iris may or may not be a Gym Leader. Also like Misty, Iris thinks Ash is a little kid but helps him out since he doesn't know a lot about the Unova region.

In BW036, she meets Georgia, her rival, who defeated her when they first met. She also told Ash and Cilan of how she obtained her Excadrill: When she was younger she played with all the Pokémon in the forest and learned that a bully Drilbur stole a Patrat's food.

Younger Iris

In BW040, she entered the Don Battle Tournament and won the Wing Set. Iris cheered on for Ash in his Gym Battle with Elesa. Then she and Ash have some fun in Nimbasa City visiting all the attractions. Iris also meets Champion Alder, had the opportunity to befriend some Deino that belonged to other trainers and she also dressed as a shrine maiden to summon Landorus.

Iris fear

Iris and her fear for ice-type Pokémon

In BW082, Iris appeared to be glad that the Opelucid Gym was temporarily closed. Meaning that she may be the Gym Leader there. She visited her hometown and helped her friend tame her Hydreigon, after which, she was challenged by Drayden but was defeated.

In BW092, Iris entered the Junior Cup. Her first round was against her rival, Georgia. Iris used Dragonite and Georgia used Beartic. Despite Dragonite not listening to her, Iris defeats Georgia and advances to the quarter-finals. In the 2nd round, she battled Dawn. Dawn used her Mamoswine and Iris used her Dragonite again. Dragonite listened to her at first, but he disobeyed her again. Despite that, Iris defeats Dawn and advances to the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, Iris battled Ash. Ash used his Krokorok and Iris used her Dragonite. During the battle, Dragonite was starting to listen to Iris which is why she was winning. The battle started to take a turn when Ash's Krokorok evolved into Krookodile. Ash's Krookodile learned Dragon Claw and he used it on Dragonite, which is super-effective. After he was hit by that attack, Dragonite started to lose control. Ash's Krookodile then used Crunch on Dragonite. Still not listening to Iris, Dragonite used Dragon Rush, which Ash's Krookodile dodged the attack by using Dig. Then he jumped out and used Stone Edge, which was also super-effective. This attack knocked out Dragonite giving Ash the win and Iris was eliminated from the Junior Cup.

In BW100, Jervis suggests to go through Opelucid City to get to the Unova League in Vertress City. Iris quickly says she would rather pass through the Village of Dragons, supporting the fact that she's been trying to avoid Opelucid City. Ash and Cilan agree, to Iris' relief. Later in the episode she makes them dress as women to get revenge on three women for calling her Pokémon "unattractive." After arriving at the village, she had her Axew examined by the elder and she gave it her seal of approval. After dealing with a Hydreigon that belong to her friend Drayden challenges her to a battle, which she accepts. At Opelucid City, she explains that she didn't fit in with the other kids. After the battle it is revealed that Iris was to eventually succeed Drayden as the new Opelucid Gym Leader.

After the events with N she joined Ash and Cilan on their journey to the Decolore Islands. Along the way she gets into a fight with Ash but they make up.

Following their adventures in the Decolore Islands, Iris decides to travel to Vermilion City, where she hopes to meet and train all Dragon-type Pokémon and become the next Dragon Master. She is last seen boarding a train that goes to Vermilion City with Cilan, bidding Ash and Alexa farewell.

Pokémon

On hand

Pokémon Information
File:Iris Kibago.png
 Like Ash's Pikachu, it doesn't go in its Poké Ball, and when it needs to retreat, it hides in Iris' hair, coming out to eat when necessary. It hasn't been used in battle much, but when it does, it is shown to be weak and is likely to be a very young Pokémon. It was seen to dream of evolving all the way up to be a Haxorus.
Axew ♂
Pokémon Information
File:Iris Doryuzu.png
 Iris sent out her Excadrill when her Axew got captured by a wild Scolipede. Excadrill is an incredibly powerful Pokémon and has powerful moves such as Drill Run which makes Excadrill a powerhouse of Iris' team. When it is sent out, it spins around, folding its arms and head together like a drill. It however does not always obey Iris and requires coaxing before it will battle its opponents. It is also revealed in BW036 that Iris captured Excadrill as a Drilbur.

Iris and Emolga
 After meeting up with Bianca, Ash and his friends learned of her quest to capture an Emolga. After Iris saved the wild Emolga from several Swoobats, it decided to go with Iris, not Bianca.

Pokémon Information
File:Iris' Dragonite.png
 Iris met Dragonite in Undella Town, where it was accused of causing blackouts. Iris healed its injuries and defended it against people who were blaming it for the blackout. It eventually chose to join Iris. Dragonite is a powerhouse; however, as seen in the World Tournament, it relies more on its instincts in battle, often ignoring Iris' orders.
Dragonite ♂

Iris Gible
 Iris first encountered Gible in Blackthorn City when it was causing trouble to the townsfolk. But after Iris saved its life from falling off the clock tower, it decided to come with her.

Temporary

Pokémon Information
Fraxure anime
 This Pokémon was used by Iris when she went to Drayden's school in Opelucid City. It battled another student's Altaria and lost. Afterwards, Drayden lectured Iris because she had been unable to notice that Fraxure was tired. It made an unofficial appearance in BW103 in Iris's flashback. It made an official appearance in the same episode when Iris apologized to it.
