Ahhh I haven’t talked about her too much but Ione is my baby. Some fun facts:

• Her name is pronounced “ie-O-nee” and is of Greek origin, meaning “violet flower”. May and Lisia chose this name just since they thought it was pretty and sounded nice with Levi and Evan’s names, but it ends up being fitting for their daughter as she has her grandmother Caroline’s purple eyes.
• Her Japanese name is Sumire (菫玲), with the kanji for “violet flower” and “sound of jewels”. The second kanji is meant to have a slight relation to “earth”, as Levi’s Japanese name relates to the sea and Evan’s to the sky. 
• Ione has loved cute things and being the center of attention from a young age, in no small part because her mothers spoil her rotten. She loved the idea of contests, but always wanted to take the stage alongside her pokémon, so when she first heard about Showcases she knew exactly what she wanted to do when she set out on her journey. She’s got a rather princess-like attitude, so she definitely is going to be the center of drama in the Kalos Showcase scene, haha.
• Her starter is a Sableye! I’m not sure yet how they first met, but I thought Sableye would be the perfect fit for Ione considering it kind of matches her name (purple and jewels), and I thought it would be fun for a pink-loving ultra-girly-girl like Ione to have a pokémon who’s a bit on a the creepier side. I can see Ione’s Sableye being similar to her in personality, very particular about her looks, a little on the prissy side, and always making sure her collection of jewels are in top condition (and ready to eat when she’s hungry.)  So the two definitely make a formidable (and overwhelming team.)
