Eva-Yuliana (Yulia) Germanovna Serova

Eva-Yuliana (Yulia) Germanovna Serova, often referred to as either just Yulia or Eva, is a 25-year-old Russian-Resmarian woman with blue eyes and brown hair.

Pre-Series
Eva was born on December 1st, 2033, to Russian parents Karina (Karinushka) Danilova Serova and Konstantin (Kostya) Konstantinovich Serova in Moscow, Russia. Her father named her, and then died the day after he did so. Eva's mom got a job as a Resmarian Secret Service agent through pure chance and moved to Resma shortly after getting the job.

When Eva started school, it became apparent that something was off about Eva. The first thing they noticed was that Eva would periodically meow at the blackboard as her teacher gave instructions. The second thing they noticed was how often she'd look away and speak to herself in Russian. She was taken to the doctor and diagnosed with schizophrenia shortly there-after.

When she turned 14, she was gifted with her first car, a small Ford Escape. She was accepted into the prestigious music academy Highland Music Academy, but her mother refused to let her attend. The reason her mother gave was that "not only is it hard to get to without an official Butterscotch Hills Pass, but to get there would mean you're breaking the law and staying up past curfew." Eva ended up going to Oak Leaf High School, the community high school for the Sespet region, where she's been going ever since.

Twenty-Two Hours
At the beginning of the book, we see Eva about to leave for school. She is yelled at by her best friend/neighbor, Sanrith Zumkas, but before he can get anywhere, Eva runs into Officer Savarese and her Rockruff, Jupiter. Eva distracts the officer with a question and bends down to pet the Pokémon, but Mina catches her and sends her off with a warning. Sanrith drops down from the window and reminds her that school is closed for Sage Chiaki Crownleaf's birthday this week. He then asks her if she's willing to go to the arcade with him. She agrees to this plan. They don't get far before they run into the Sage's daughter, Sakura Hirabayashi, who calls out to Eva, acting as though they'd already met, addressing her as Yuliaya. Because of this, Eva gets mad and yells at Sakura, not realizing that she could get her mother fired. When she finally realizes this, Sakura is brandishing a weapon. Since Crown Princesses aren't allowed to have weapons, Eva apologizes hastily, telling Sakura to "put down the weapon before you chop your own head off" as she does so. Sakura puts away the weapon, which Eva can now see is a katana. It looks as though it had been made by the Arashiro clan's blacksmiths for the famed Agent under their name, Agent Arashiro.

Pokémon
As a person in the Sespet region, despite having family in the Resmarian Secret Service, she was not allowed to have Pokémon legally. So, she illegally obtained the following Pokémon from her journey:
 * Dawn - her mother's Pachirisu
 * an unnamed Geodude
 * an unnamed Togedemaru
