Template:GymLeaderBoxSkyla (Japanese: フウロ Fuuro) is the Gym Leader of Mistralton City's gym in the Unova region. Her gym is the sixth gym to be challenged by the player. Skyla specializes in Flying-type Pokémon. She will award the player the Jet Badge if you defeat her. She first appeared in Pokémon Black and White. When she's not Gym Battling, she spends her free time flying around since she's a pilot.

In the Games

She first appears in Mistralton City, but she leaves and goes to the Celestial Tower. After you reach the top of the tower and ring the bell, she will return to the Gym for you to battle. After you defeat her, you can continue the game.

After you defeat the Elite Four and you enter N's Castle, she along with the rest of the Gym Leaders will show up and battle the Seven Sages.

For the rest of the game she is found in her Gym. She also visits Cynthia in Undella Town.

Skyla made her debut in BW069 where she just gave away badges to trainers and skip the battles because she always thinks about how the battles will go. And she was also too busy with air shows than Pokémon battles. This made Ash and Cilan Mad and as a result, Cilan challenged her to a Gym Leader Battle in which he lost. Ash will battle her in BW070.

More as it develops.

Trivia

  • Her Japanese Leader title is 大空の ぶっとびガール. "The heaven's surprising girl"
  • Skyla is the 3rd Flying type Gym Leader. The other two being Falkner and Winona.
    • Coincidentally, both Skyla and Winona are the 6th Gym Leader in their respective regions and both use Flying types. In addition, they both live next to Routes with a Weather Condition and are both female.
  • Skyla's name may come from the word sky, which is a associated with flying and the name Kayla. This makes sense because Skyla is a Flying-type trainer.
  • Despite the fact pilots should dress warmly, Skyla wears shorts and her belly is uncovered.
  • Skyla is one of the few female Gym Leaders to have red hair. The others are Misty (Orange) and Flannery (Red).
  • In the anime, Skyla is the third Gym Leader to battle one of Ash's friends, the first being Sinnoh's Maylene who battled Dawn and the second being Elesa who battled Bianca.
  • In the anime, Skyla swapped her female Unfezant from the games for a male one.
  • Her skin tone appears darker in the anime than in the games.
  • Like Flannery, Skyla has a grandfather in the anime and the games.
    • Also in the anime, like Volkner, she gave away Gym Badges without actually battling in her debut episode.
