Born of the ancient Draconid clan, Zinnia became both a stargazer and a dragon fighter. While Zinnia’s brash and impulsive nature caused her to be an outcast amongst her peers, Zinnia’s love of history, astrology, and imagination allowed her to shine as a child with a lot of potential in their life. Zinnia had little peers, but made friends with several adults and many of the Dragon-type Pokémon in the village.
However, when her best friend, Lorekeeper Aster, perished in a fire, Zinnia was overwhelmed with grief. In a fit of anger, Zinnia took the mantle as Lorekeeper for herself and ventured to the Hoenn region to continue the prophecy. Zinnia did all that she could to summon and bond with Rayquaza in order to stop the great meteor that threatened the Hoenn Region, even convincing Team Magma to awaken Groudon so Rayquaza could intervene; however, none of her attempts were capable of summoning the Sky High Pokémon. In a final attempt to gain Rayquaza’s favor, Zinnia summoned the new champion of the region to help her summon Rayquaza. While this attempt was successful, the Legendary Pokémon chose the champion instead to be its trainer, allowing the dragon and the child to take to the sky and save the world.
After the champion was chosen, Zinnia left the Hoenn region to finally reflect on herself. Zinnia traveled to the Unova region, where she stayed for 2 years. She met several people and Pokémon there, became closer with her team and slowly learned to both cope with her situation and discover what she wanted to do with her life. Once complete, after some encouragement with Drayden, Zinnia returned to Hoenn to confront her past once and for all.
Zinnia returned to Hoenn and visited Sky Pillar. Upon her return, Zinnia quickly encountered Rayquaza and challenged it to a battle. Their fight was fierce, but with her newfound strength by her side, Zinnia eventually defeated the Sky High Pokémon. Triumphant of her progress, Zinnia healed and hugged the dragon, thanking it for its lesson to her. After talking with it for some time, though, the dragon had given her one final wish: to join her in her journey to protect the world. Now, Zinnia and Rayquaza work together doing anything they can to maintain the beauty of the world while teaching others to follow in their footsteps.
