− | In ''[[Pokémon Masters | + | In ''[[Pokémon Masters]]'', Iris and her Haxorus appeared as a playable sync pair and could be recruited by [[Scottie/Bettie|the player]] in Chapter 9 of the main story. This used her original design from ''Black''/''White''. A variant of Iris in her champion clothing from ''Black 2''/''White 2'' was made available starting in March 2021 and was paired with [[Hydreigon]]. That variant could be unlocked at random through the game's Sync Pair Scout feature only during limited time periods. |
− | Within | + | Within the game's story, Iris met with the player's group after she was recognized by [[Nate/Rosa|Rosa]], and she accompanied them while they fought off members of [[Team Break]] who wanted to steal her Haxorus. She was angry at [[Lear]] for being mean, not valuing Pokémon and not appreciating their attempts to help. She took on Lear in a one-on-one battle, with their Pokémon having an even match until Lear became annoyed with Iris's morals and decided to leave. Iris proceeded to challenge the player to a battle, as she was curious about team battles, and she joined the team after being defeated. |
− | + | She also appeared as an opponent in the Story Event "Two Champions", where she and [[Clair]] crashed a planned battle between [[Lance]] and [[Cynthia]], in order to challenge them as dragon masters. They teamed up with Rosa and were defeated by Scottie/Bettie and the two champions. Iris was also featured in the Story Event "Shining Heart of Dragons" with her champion outfit. In that event, a Festival of Champions was held to commemorate the arrival of champions from various regions in [[Pasio]]. Iris was plagued by insecurities about how well she matched up to the other champions due to how young she was, and her Hydreigon also went out of control due to [[Team Break]] device. Ultimately, [[Diantha]] and [[Lance (Pokemon)|Lance]] were able to help her rediscover her confidence as a champion, and with some unseen guidance from Alder, Iris was able to talk her Hydreigon down from its rampage and defeat the Team Break member. | |
