Trivia

Origin

Helena's design is based on the Hex Maniac Trainer class from Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire. This Trainer class specializes in Ghost-type Pokémon. Although no Hex Maniacs in the core series are called "Helena", some of Helena's dialogue is similar to that of certain Hex Maniacs in Pokémon X and Y: her dialogue after being recruited and upon recalling her fainted Pokémon is similar to what Hex Maniac Anina says before battle and upon being defeated, respectively, while her morning log-in dialogue is similar to what Hex Maniac Josette says after battle. Additionally, Hex Maniac Anina uses a Haunter, like Helena. Haunter's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Ultra Sun.
