Mable Okuma

Mable Sayuri Okuma is from Aquacorde Town in the Kalos region. She's a former member of Team Flare and is now a member of the Tekiyoku. She's a Water Manipulator.

Character
So far, Mable was only seen for a little bit in Episode 9 when she encountered the Mokusetsu in Anistar City, Kalos, alongside Dr. Zager and Celosia, who are both Grass Manipulators. She didn't say much, but she fought Ash in the fight for Ikazuchi.

Later, she jumped in front of Dr. Zager to take a powered-up punch from Serena, which knocked her over the nearby riverbank and into the water. She was all right since she can breathe underwater, though. Celosia went to check on her and make sure she was okay.

Naming

 * Her first name, Mable, is her name in the English dub of the Pokémon anime. This partly comes from Maple, the genus of trees and shrubs.
 * More significantly, the names of Team Flare's scientists are possibly a reference to solar flares, which are classified as A, B, C, M, or X according to their peak flux range. Those are the scientists' initials in each localization of the anime and the 5 present in Tears of the Fallen (Aliana, Bryony, Celosia, Mable, and Xerosic).


 * Her middle name, Sayuri, is the given name of her Japanese voice actress, Sayuri Hara.
 * Her last name, Okuma, was randomly selected from a Japanese name generator.

General

 * Her birthday, May 2nd, was randomly selected.
