Rui's Role & Abilities

Rui is a pivotal character in Pokémon Colosseum, a young woman with a unique ability to sense the presence of Shadow Pokémon. Her keen senses and unwavering determination make her an invaluable partner to Wes. Rui's primary role is to guide Wes through the Orre region, providing crucial information about Cipher's activities and the locations of their hidden bases. She acts as a moral compass and a source of motivation, constantly reminding Wes of the suffering of the Shadow Pokémon and the importance of their mission.

While Rui does not directly participate in battles as a trainer, her unique ability to "see" Shadow Pokémon is instrumental. This allows Wes to identify and target these corrupted creatures more effectively. Her presence often triggers dialogue that provides context and hints about upcoming challenges. Rui's unwavering belief in the goodness of Pokémon and her determination to free them from Cipher's control are central to the narrative. She represents the hope for a brighter future in the Orre region, a future where Pokémon are free from exploitation and fear.
