Gardenia is a quirky and friendly trainer, who gets giddy whenever she comes across [[Grass type|Grass-type]] Pokémon. Although she has a bubbly personality, her past may suggest she's a lot more complex than initially believed. Her connection with the [[Old Chateau]] has yet remained a mystery.

== In the anime ==
 
[[File:Gardenia&Cacnea.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Gardenia and her love of Grass-type Pokémon.]]Gardenia first appeared [[DP031: The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!]] in the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl anime series. She was shown to have a slight obsession with Grass-type Pokémon, as she quickly commented and interacted with other people's Grass Pokémon, including [[Team Rocket#Jessie, James and Meowth|Team Rocket's]]. Also during this episode, Gardenia had a small battle with [[Ash]], where she unveiled her own [[Turtwig]] and used it against [[Ash's Torterra|Ash's]]. Despite her stay with Ash and his friends, Gardenia had not yet revealed herself as the Eterna City Gym Leader. Just like in the games, Ash and his friends meet Gardenia in Eterna Forest.
 
 
[[File:Gardenia ForestBadge.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Awarding Ash with his Forest Badge.]]After a short absence, Gardenia later appeared in [[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]], where she revealed herself to be the Gym Leader. In [[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]], Gardenia battled Ash using her [[Cherubi]], [[Turtwig]], and [[Roserade]]. While there was some struggle on Ash's part, he managed to win, defeating her Roserade with his [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Upon leaving, Gardenia rewarded Ash with a Forest Badge.
 
 
Gardenia returned in Once There Were Greenfields where she battled Ash and [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] in a double battle she organized, with [[James]] as her partner. After the battle, Gardenia took James's [[Cacnea]], with his permission, in order to train it, so it can master Drain Punch

====Diamond and Pearl Arc====
 
She battled against Platinum and lost, giving her the Forest Badge. She also appears in Chapter 4 where she attacked Pearl because she assumed he was with Team Galactic. When Gardenia found out he wasn't with Team Galactic she apologised. Then she states that Team Galactic has been causing trouble in the Eterna Forest and Eterna City.

Latest revision as of 14:30, 15 November 2023

"You kept me waiting! I'm Eterna's Gym Leader, Gardenia, the Grass-type master! When I first saw you, I was convinced you'd find your way to me. My hunch was right on the money. You have a winning aura about you. So, anyway, this will be fun. Let's have our battle."
— Gardenia, Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.

Gardenia serves as the Gym Leader for Eterna City. Gardenia specializes in Grass-type Pokémon, and holds the Forest Badge for the trainers that defeat her. She is also known as a "Master of Vivid Plant Pokémon". She loves Grass-Type Pokémon and as such, has a lot of plants in her gym. Gardenia is also an expert on Grass-Type Pokémon.

Appearance

Gardenia has brown eyes and short half-brown, half-black hair. She wears a black long-sleeved crop top that shows her midriff under a green cloak with a black "X" mark in the center. She wears brown knee-length khaki shorts and a black belt with a silver buckle around her waist. Finally, she wears green boots with black laces.

Personality

Gardenia is a quirky and friendly trainer, who gets giddy whenever she comes across Grass-type Pokémon. Although she has a bubbly personality, her past may suggest she's a lot more complex than initially believed. Her connection with the Old Chateau has yet remained a mystery.

Etymology

The name Gardenia comes from "garden" or could literally be "gardenia", a type of flower.

Her Japanese name, Natane, comes from 菜 (na, greens), 種 (tane, seed) and 菜種 (natane, canola plant).

Biography

Games

Diamond and Pearl

Gardenia first appeared in the first Generation IV games as the Eterna City Gym Leader, specializing in Grass Pokémon. The player first meets her in Eterna Forest, outside of the mansion. Her Gym is filled with plants, and trainers that challenge her must search for, and find all of the Gym members before they can face her. Upon defeating her, she will reach into her waistband and reward the player with the Forest Badge and TM86 (Grass Knot).
