Oleana is a Pokémon researcher who acts as one of the antagonists of Pokémon Sword and Shield, serving the main antagonist Rose.
Background[edit]
Oleana was a researcher of Dynamax energy who became the vice president of Macro Cosmos as well as the secretary to its president, Chairman Rose. Little else was known of her background. Oleana usually appeared to be humorless and stern. She was easily exasperated by the chairman's tendency to goof off and would berate him to focus on his task at a given time. Despite her impatience with him and her usual disposition, Oleana was actually fanatically devoted to Rose and could be driven to passionate displays of emotion related to him. She was one of Rose's confidants, who knew of his plan to awaken Eternatus with the power of the wishing stars, and she did what she could to help move his plan along.
Throughout Sword/Shield, Oleana was often seen with Rose and reminded him of appointments that she had to get to. At one point, she took Rose's ward Bede aside and spoke to him in private. According to Opal's suspicions, it was she who manipulated Bede into attacking the mural at Stow-on-Side, although it was never made clear whether or not Rose was involved in that incident as well.
Oleana took direct action during the Championship Cup. Leon had gone into a meeting with Rose, and Oleana wanted to ensure that the meeting was not interrupted. She tried to keep Victor/Gloria and others from interfering by hiding the monorail key with a member of the League Staff who was planted by her, comparing it to the kind of menial game that the chairman loves. Victor/Gloria and Hop were able to get the key and used it to get to Rose Tower. Oleana issued an intruder alert and tried to get her workers to fight them, but her people were still defeated. Ultimately, Oleana showed her angry side and battled Victor/Gloria when the trainer arrived at the top of Rose Tower. She hoped that defeating the challenger endorsed by Leon would cause Leon to become disheartened and more open to being persuaded by Rose to help with their plan. Oleana was defeated. Though she was disappointed in her loss, she felt that she had delayed them sufficiently and that Rose had collected enough wishing stars. The next day, Rose set his plan into motion and was able to awaken Eternatus within the underground power plant at Hammerlocke. Eternatus's power forced Oleana's Pokémon to Dynamax, and they rampaged in Hammerocke Stadium until Raihan was able to subdue them. Oleana realized how dangerous the plan really was, and that Rose was in danger as well as the entire Galar region. She was found by the elevator to the underground power plant when Victor/Gloria arrived, and she urged them to go to stop Eternatus.
After Eternatus was subdued, Rose turned himself in to the authorities. Rose's ultimate sentence was unknown, but Oleana was later found at Galar Mine at the Galar Mine, where she was doing some work that apparently counted as "voluntary community service" on Rose's behalf. She was pleased to do such work on Rose's behalf, as he had apparently worked in a coal mine in the past. When Victor/Gloria found her there, she gave them Rose's rare League Card. Oleana described it as one her prized League Cards, but she also assured the trainer that she had a hundred other signed copies of the card. She ultimately thanked Victor/Gloria for defeating Eternatus and felt that Rose would say the same.
Oleana could make another appearance during the Crown Tundra DLC. Oleana could be found at night in the Old Cemetery. She had come to the area to investigate rumors of Rose having been seen in the area. After accosting Victor/Gloria about any sightings of the chairman, the source of the rumors appeared: Rose's brother Peony. Oleana noted the physical resemblance between the brothers, but she was agitated at how different Peony was and quickly called for a Flying Taxi to take her from the Crown Tundra.
