Alfornada Gym

• Before battle

"I suppose you’re right. OK, I’ll get things moving here on my end."

"Let’s keep the tag line simple— “Naturally Beautiful.”"

"And order the new eye-shadow color too, would you?"

"Thanks, you’re a doll. Gotta run now. Chat with you later."

"Hello there."

"I’m Tulip, the Gym Leader here. Though I must tell you that being a makeup artist is my main line of work."

"Dendra had nothing but praise for you. She said you totally slayed out there."

"Hehe. I must say, you are a cute challenger, ."

"I’m sure my ESP exercise made you all the more beautiful. Doesn’t that make you happy?"

"You keep your Pokémon beautiful and clean as well. I see you have quite the aesthetic sense."

"Appearance is equally important for both people and Pokémon."

"Makeup is like magic. Anyone can use it to change their appearance."

"Allow me to put my skills to use to make your cute little Pokémon even more beautiful!"

• In battle

"You’re quite a good base to test my makeup magic on. What shall I use on you?"

• Before sending out final Pokémon

"You’re just as hard to get rid of as caked-on mascara, I see. I need a good makeup remover!"

• Upon Terastallizing her Florges

"Come here, my little Florges! It’s time for a makeover. You’ll become a new you!"

• Upon using Terastal move

"My bewitching beauty methods will cleanse you right down to the depths of your pores!"

• Upon being defeated

"Your strength has a magic to it that cannot be washed away."

• After being defeated

"I lost the battle? And your beauty rivals even my own? I can’t believe it."

"You are quite splendid. Yes, truly amazing!"

"Perhaps I should take you under my wing before you make your big break elsewhere..."

"But I suppose I need to work on myself a little more first before I run off and do such a thing."

"You have earned my Gym Badge. Allow me to strike one of my best poses to give it to you. Congratulations, <player>."

"With <number of Badges> Gym Badge/Badges, Pokémon of up to Lv. <level> will be easier to catch and will listen to the commands you give them." (If the player has less than eight Badges)

"With all 8 Gym Badges, you’ll be able to catch Pokémon of any level. They’ll be good Pokémon and listen to your commands, too." (If the player has eight Badges)

"If you train hard, you’ll be able to use this move in a totally perfect way."

"Don’t go uploading that selfie we just took to social media, OK?"

"I think my makeup has run a little with all the moving and sweating I did during our battle."

"I need to fix it fast before my next appointment. My schedule is absolutely packed, you know. Farewell, then. You did splendidly today."
