Appearance

This section, or a part of it, has been transcluded from Drasna; any changes involving it should be made there instead. / 

Drasna is a woman who has dark blue hair with two pigtails. Drasna wears brown shirt with a yellow sash around her belly and also wears a striped dark red dress with rippled ends. Along with her dress and high-heeled shoes, she wears dragon accessories resembling dragon's teeth, which are connected by green and orange decorations. Her right wristband is connected by a Key Stone that she uses in battles.

Personality

Drasna is seen as a calm individual with a very gentle and welcoming disposition. However, it is also shown she likes to taunt her opponent as seen with Ash, masking it with her smile, making her somewhat scary.

During battle she utilizes her Pokémon physical characteristics, such as Noivern's massive wings and Altaria's soft cotton-like feather to block powerful attacks, such as Ash's Sirfectch'd's Meteor Assault and his Dracovish's Ice Fang.

Etymology

Drasna and her Japanese name, Dorasena, come from "dragon" and "dracaena", a type of tree also known as the dragon tree.

Biography

Bonnie mentioned that Drasna once fought Clemont, prior to Ash's return to Kalos, and won.

After Ash and Goh arrived in Kalos, Ash headed off to the Lumiose Gym to visit Clemont and Bonnie. On the way, he came across a television screen. Here, it was promoting an upcoming World Coronation Series match between Drasna and Ash, much to the latter's shock. Knowing that Drasna is a powerful opponent, due to her status as a member of the Kalos Elite Four, Ash headed off to Lumiose Gym to have Clemont and Bonnie prepare him for his upcoming match. Meanwhile, Drasna was training with her fellow Kalos Elite Four member, Wikstrom, at the Castle of Chivalry.

The next day, Drasna got to meet Ash in person at the Lumiose Conference and declared that she would be the one to put an end to his winning streak. Ultimately, she lost to Ash, marking the first time Ash defeated an Elite Four member.
