Pokémon Trainer

Hailing from New Bark Town in the Johto region, Kris was the first female protagonist to set out on a journey to assist Professor Elm with his research. She traveled across Johto and Kanto to collect Gym Badges and complete the Pokédex, famously becoming the first trainer to track and encounter the legendary Pokémon Suicune. In later appearances, she is recognized as a specialist in Johto's history and a master of the Pokémon catching technique.
