History

Danika first appeared in Advice to Goh!, when she contacted Gary on his Rotom Phone after receiving the feather of Moltres and awarded him a token with a Mew symbol.

She made her first in-person appearance in Leaping Toward the Dream!, where she explained to Ash and Goh how Project Mew operates, and gave Goh his mission of catching an Alolan Ninetales on Mount Coronet. After Goh had succeeded in the mission, Danika congratulated him on his success and informed him that he was now qualified to start taking on proper Trial Missions.

Danika reappeared in Trial on a Golden Scale!. She was first seen monitoring Ninetales after returning it to its natural habitat. Shortly thereafter she discussed with Quillon about Goh's future in Project Mew. Later, when Goh and Ash were surrounded by Pokémon poacher Nito and his henchmen, Danika intervened and saved them using her Rapid Strike Style Urshifu. Once everything was resolved, Danika handed Goh his first Project Mew Token and encouraged him to continue giving his best.

In JN088, Danika received a message from Goh, informing her that he had completed his second Trial Mission. She sent him a token before joining Quillon in facing a Regirock as it emerged from the ruins before them.

Character

Unlike Quillon, Danika is far more welcoming and friendly, encouraging Goh to give his best. In battle her most friendly posture is left aside, Danika is quite confident of her abilities, even choosing several opponents for battle and disqualifying the Pokémon Hunters as soon as she arrives at the place.
