Flannery was the granddaughter of a famed Pokémon trainer who once served as part of the [[Elite Four]]. Flannery herself eventually became the gym leader for Lavaridge Town's gym, which also doubled as hot springs. She had only recently become its gym leader at the time of the third generation games. Most of the town admired her for her beauty, and she was known for the flaming passion that she had for raising Pokémon. Due to her own insecurities, she attempted to put on an intimidating persona for challengers, though she was not very good at coming up with things to say, and she later realized that it confused her Pokémon too.

Flannery was the granddaughter of a famed Pokémon trainer who once served as part of the [[Elite Four]]. Flannery herself eventually became the gym leader of the gym in Lavaridge Town. She had only recently become its gym leader at the time of ''Ruby'', ''Sapphire'' and ''Emerald''. Most of the town admired her for her beauty, and she was known for the flaming passion that she had for raisng Pokémon. Due to her own insecurities, however, she attempted to adapt to a more intimidating persona.
  
She was eventually challenged and defeated by [[Brendan]]/[[May]] in ''Ruby'', ''Sapphire'', ''Emerald'', ''Omega Ruby'' and ''Alpha Sapphire''. This defeat caused her to realize that she should stop trying to act like someone she wasn't, and it inspired her try doing things in her own natural way. She thanked them by giving them TM 50: Overheat in addition to the Heat Badge. Flannery realized that the trainer had a similar fighting style to [[Norman]], which made sense considering that he was the player's father. In ''Emerald'', she shut down her gym while redoing her training, and then when she reopened she called Brendan/May up for rematches over the Match Call. She decided not to feel deflated by her losses due to her love of Pokémon, battling and her gym.

She was eventually challenged and defeated by [[Brendan]]/[[May]] in ''Ruby'', ''Sapphire'' and ''Emerald''. This defeat caused her to realize that she should stop trying to act like someone she wasn't and instead to do things her own natural way. She thanked him/her by giving him/her TM 50: Overheat in addition to the Heat Badge. Flannery than remarked that the trainer had a similar fighting style to [[Norman]], which made sense considering that he was the player's father. In ''Emerald'', she could be challenged to rematches afterwards.
 
 
In ''Omega Ruby'' and ''Alpha Sapphire'', Flannery traveled to the Scorched Slab sometime after the [[Groudon]]/[[Kyogre]] crisis was resolved in search of the rare Pokémon [[Heatran]], which she heard about from her grandfather. However, she realized that she was ill-prepared for this journey and decided to return to Lavaridge. She would also congratulate Brendan/May on becoming champion if revisited at her gym in these versions, having heard the news from [[Winona]]. This news stimulated her spirit and made her realize that she had to grow as a Pokémon trainer.
 
 
 
Flannery reappeared in ''[[Pokémon: Black and White 2|Black and White 2]]'', where she competed in the Pokémon World Tournament. She took part in the Hoenn Leaders, World Leaders and Type Expert divisions.

In ''[[Pokémon Masters EX]]'', Flannery and her Torkoal appeared as one of the playable sync pairs that [[Scottie/Bettie|the player]] could recruit for their [[Pokémon Masters League]] team. She was featured and recruited in Chapter 3 of the Main Story. She was initially training with [[Blaine]] at the volcano area of [[Pasio]] in hopes of becoming as awesome as her grandfather. When the player's team arrived looking for a new member, Blaine suggested that they battle all of trainers in the area, with Flannery being the final trainer. After Flannery was defeated, Blaine convinced her that she would grow stronger by working with others, and so Flannery decided to join Scottie/Bettie's team. Blaine also declared that he would form his own team, because he looked forward to battling her under this league's rules. Flannery also appeared in the "Reach for the Top" Story Event, in which she fought on a team with Scottie/Bettie and [[Blue]], and she ultimately decided to train with [[Bruno]]. She was also featured in the Solo Event "With Beauty and Grace", in which she and [[Shauna]] admired their older peers and went around asking others for advice on how to grow up to be cool adults. They ended up following [[Hapu]] as their mentor after missing the point of her attempt to convince them to just grow up at their own pace. Flannery also appeared as an opponent in [[Hilbert/Hilda|Hilda]]'s Sync Pair Story, where Hilda had to defeat her in a one-on-one battle in order for her [[Tepig]] to evolve.

*Flannery appears in several chapters of the ''Pokémon Adventures'' manga, where she is an uncertain young gym leader under [[Winona]]'s tutelage. She is initially captured by [[Team Aqua]] to lure [[May|Sapphire]] into a trap but she is able to bust them out. After Team Aqua dries up the volcano, a [[Team Magma]] member Tabitha helps her to try to stir up the volcano in vain, although this incident later leads her to sympathize with Team Magma at the gym leaders' conference. She bonds with Sapphire in the last hot spring before it cools and gives her the badge. After [[Groudon]] and [[Kyogre]] are awakened, Flannery is part of the team sent after Kyogre and winds up battling the Team Aqua member Shelley. After the crisis is averted Flannery is able to re-open the hot springs and surprisingly finds Tabitha among her guests. She reappears in the ''Omega Ruby''/''Alpha Sapphire'' arc, where she and the other gym leaders help in the effort to stop Grand Meteor Delta.
 
 
 
=Trivia=
 
 
 
*Her name may be a play on the word 'flame'. Her Japanese name is Asuna, which is derived from the name of a Japanese conifer.
 
*During the tournament in ''Black''/''White 2'', she notices that [[Nate/Rosa]]'s strength reminds her of someone, potentially referring to Brendan/May.
