Lorelei (Adventures)

Lorelei is a member of the Elite Four and a primary antagonist in the Yellow Chapter of Pokémon Adventures.

Background
Lorelei is a prodigal Ice-type Pokémon user, being seen using them since early childhood.

Personality
Lorelei is a very deceptive and cunning person. She bears an insatiable grudge against humankind for treating Pokémon poorly - a trait shared by all members of the Elite Four excluding Bruno-. Lorelei also has sadistic tendencies, namely when Red was immobilized within her ice, she continued to harm him grievously. However, Lorelei also has a kinder side, when she assists Red and the other Pokédex Holders in the fight against The Three Beasts of Team Rocket, who attacked her hometown in the Sevii Islands. Lorelei is shown to have extreme adulation for Agatha, who saved her Pokémon when she was very little.

Skills
Lorelei exhibits exceeding prowess in controlling Ice-type Pokémon, being able to summon them with relative ease. She also has the ability to manifest voodoo dolls made out of ice, which can bind two people together. The ice dolls can be created by her Jynx's Ice Beam attack, and are not limited to making replicas of people. The physics behind Lorelei's voodoo doll technique is that if she makes markings on the doll with her marker pen, ice handcuffs will appear on the real bodies, limiting the individual's movements. To this effect, if any portion of the ice is broken off accidentally, for example an arm, then the arm of the person will be broken off. And ultimately, if the dolls shatter completely, then the individuals will die alongside it. Lorelei also carries with her a camera concealed within her makeup bag, in order to maintain communication with Agatha.

Appearance
Lorelei is identical in physical appearance to her game counterpart.

Past
Lorelei was sobbing at the base of a construction site, over the sick body of her Dewgong. She is approached by Agatha, who asks whether she needs any assistance. Agatha deduces that her Pokémon is being affected by the toxic smog exhumed by the industrial waste pollution, but alleviates the situation by having her Gastly consume the toxic poison from Dewgong's system. This has an instantaneous effect on Dewgong, as Lorelei is unable to contain her thanks. Agatha tells Lorelei that humans can cause horrible things to happen, asking whether she hates the humans for causing her Pokémon pain. She then asks Lorelei whether she would like to become her partner.

Red, Blue and Green Chapter
Lorelei and the rest of the Elite Four make brief appearances during the final battle between Red and Blue at the Indigo Plateau.
