Rhonda serves as the energetic host of *Sinnoh Now*, a television program chronicling regional events, interviews, and major incidents across the Diamond and Pearl series’ Sinnoh region. Her debut report features a Pokémon Training Camp, where she spotlights twin brothers Ryan and Bryan. Filming their Tag Battle against Ash and Dawn, she opts to showcase their strategic comeback victory over their initial loss, showcasing her editorial eye for crafting engaging stories.
She navigates diverse assignments with equal flair, from announcing the Pokémon Dress-Up Contest in a Cherrim costume to investigating Team Galactic’s theft of the Adamant Orb in Eterna City. Her reporting draws connections between the heist and meteorite thefts in Veilstone, later expanding to the discovery of the Lustrous Orb in Celestic Town, where she underscores its ties to Palkia and its contrast to the stolen Adamant Orb.
While documenting a Hippopotas migration, she crosses paths with Ash’s group aiding a stray Hippopotas. Her plan to film the reunion unravels when her boom operator, Jack, dozes off, stranding her crew—a recurring comedic thread marked by Jack’s technical blunders disrupting her broadcasts.
Her tenacity shines in coverage of high-profile events like Wallace’s Sinnoh visit for the Wallace Cup, where she persists despite drained camera batteries, and the Sinnoh Grand Festival, interviewing contenders like Nando and Dawn. A post-credits scene in *Zoroark: Master of Illusions* further cements her reach as she reports on Crown City’s aftermath.
Rhonda balances professionalism with dry exasperation, exemplified when covertly filming Wallace during his leisure time or begrudgingly managing equipment amid Jack’s mishaps. Her segments frequently weave together episodic incidents and broader arcs, such as Team Galactic’s schemes or Sinnoh’s legendary Pokémon lore, positioning her as a narrative anchor linking scattered threads through journalistic rigor.
