Before anyone asks
Please don't remove what I have hidden. Some of it is speculation (come on, how could she not be a Grass-type Gym Leader with a name like Aloe?) but the rest is just there because it will inevitably need to be added, and this way it can just be unhidden.--PhantomJunkie 06:50, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
- Aren't all Gym Leaders in Japan named after names of plants, usually with a pun about which type they train? --AndyPKMN 13:25, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

- I did some searching through some Japanese dictionaries and apparently the definition that refers to a proprietress comes from "madame," if that's what you're asking. 梅子❀✿ 18:51, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- It is only your guess even if it is right. inappropriate. --Klobis 02:38, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
