Debut | Pokémon: Red Version/Pokemon: Green Version |
Sabrina is the leader of the Saffron City Pokémon gym. She specializes in Psychic-type Pokémon, which is only natural because Sabrina herself has had Psychic powers since she was a child. She does not like battling, but she at one point defeated the Karate Master of the Fighting Dojo with ease, in order to establish her gym as the city's official gym in the Pokémon League.
Background
In Pokémon: Red, Green, Blue and Yellow Versions (and Pokémon: FireRed and LeafGreen Versions), Red battled her after liberating Silph Co. from Giovanni. Sabrina waited in a room that could only be reached by following a maze of rooms connected by warp tiles. She was shocked when Red defeated her, and awarded him with the Marshbadge and TM 46: Psywave (or TM 04: Calm Mind in FireRed and LeafGreen).
Sabrina still resided in her gym several years later, in Pokémon: Gold, Silver, and [[[Pokémon: Crystal Version|Crystal Versions]]. This time she was challenged and defeated by Gold, and was the second of the Kanto gym leaders he could battle in the game. Sabrina surrendered another Marshbadge to him.
Pokémon Roster
Sabrina specializes in Psychic-type Pokémon. In the original Red, Green and Blue versions, her line-up consisted of:
In the Yellow Version, she instead used an Abra, a Kadabra and an Alakazam. Sabrina used an Espeon, a Mr. Mime and an Alakazam in the second generation games.
Other Games

Sabrina, as she appeared in the anime, appeared in Pokémon Puzzle League as the seventh opponent, between Koga and Blaine. She used an Abra, a Hypno and an Alakazam.
Sabrina also appeared in the Kanto Gym Leader Castle of Pokémon Stadium 2 . Her new roster consisted of Wiggltuff, Alakazam, Slowbro, Hypno, Mr. Mime and Furrett in the first round; and Sandslash, Alakazam, Hitmonlee, Typhlosion, Slowking and Scizor in Round 2.
Trivia
- Sabrina was featured in a three-part episode of the Pokémon anime, where she had a second personality that manifested itself in the form of a little girl looking for someone to play with. Ash inadvertantly cured Sabrina when a Haunter he had acquired caused Sabrina to laugh.
