'''Gardenia''' (Japanese: '''ナタネ''' ''Natane'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Eterna City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Eterna Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Forest}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. | |||
==In the core series games== | |||
Gardenia uses {{type|Grass}} Pokémon in her battles. For defeating her, Trainers receive the {{Badge|Forest}}, {{TM|86|Grass Knot}}, and the ability to use {{m|Cut}} outside of battle. Gardenia likes to explore the [[Eterna Forest]]. Unlike most Gym Leaders, challengers are required to beat all of her students to challenge her. | |||
She appears in front of the [[Old Chateau]] to warn the {{player}} of the mysterious stories of hauntings surrounding it. She hints at herself being afraid of ghosts. Later, in {{v2|Platinum}}, she will appear occasionally for rematches at the [[Battleground]]. She will also sometimes visit the [[Villa]] and will always arrive when the Houseplant is purchased. One of her lines of dialog at the Villa confirms her dislike of {{type|Ghost}}s and she notes that she is worried about what would happen if there was a {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} Pokémon, a type combination that had never materialized prior to [[Generation VI]]. | |||

===Main series=== | |||
[[File:Gardenia anime.png|thumb|250px|Gardenia in the {{pkmn|anime}}]] | |||
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''==== | |||
Gardenia debuted in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener]]''. She was first seen unsuccessfully attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Gloom}} in the [[Eterna Forest]]. She then ran off to see [[Ash's Turtwig]], which she complimented. After that, Gardenia had a short {{pkmn|battle}} with {{Ash}}, revealing to him that the [[Eterna City]] [[Gym Leader]] specialized in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but she refrained from identifying herself as the Gym Leader. During the battle, she sent out {{p|Cherubi}} first, though she soon [[recall]]ed it. She then sent out her own {{p|Turtwig}}, which defeated both Ash's Turtwig and {{AP|Staravia}}. | |||
Gardenia informed Ash, {{ashfr}}, and [[Cheryl]] that she knew about a {{p|Combee}} wall near some [[Pomeg Berry]] flowers, and she joined them during their search for the [[Amber Castle]]. The group was confronted by {{TRT}}, but instead of being horrified to learn they were thieves, Gardenia became infatuated with [[James's Carnivine]] and {{TP|James|Cacnea}} instead. She eventually decided to battle the trio after seeing [[Jessie's Seviper]], and also rescued [[Cheryl's Mothim]]. Gardenia later left the group after receiving a message from a {{p|Nuzleaf}} regarding some urgent business. | |||
Ash and his friends encountered Gardenia again at the [[Eterna Historical Museum]] in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]''. Gardenia instantly recognized [[Nando]], who had been apprehended by [[Officer Jenny]] on suspicion of theft, from his recent Gym match victory against her. Ash and the others were surprised to learn that Gardenia was in fact the Eterna Gym Leader. Later, Gardenia and her Turtwig helped recover the stolen item in question, the [[Adamant Orb]], which had actually been stolen by Team Rocket. | |||
[[File:James and Gardenia.png|thumb|left|220px|James giving Cacnea to Gardenia]] | |||
Gardenia had a Gym battle with Ash in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]''. {{AP|Turtwig}} went up against {{p|Cherubi}} first, but it was recalled. Staravia then defeated Cherubi. After Staravia was defeated by Gardenia's Turtwig's {{m|Leech Seed}}, Ash defeated it with his own Turtwig. Next, {{p|Roserade}} defeated Ash's Turtwig with its {{m|Weather Ball}}, but later, it was defeated by {{AP|Aipom}}'s {{m|Swift}} and {{m|Focus Punch}} combination, thus earning Ash the {{Badge|Forest}}. | |||
Gardenia visited [[Emeragrove Town]] to promote Pokémon battling in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]''. She took part in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside [[James]], where they went up against Ash and {{an|Dawn}}. Gardenia's Turtwig and James's Cacnea went up against Ash's Aipom and [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]. Following Gardenia's instructions, James witnessed Cacnea as it used {{m|Drain Punch}} for the first time. Turtwig was taken out first because Gardenia was paying closer attention to Cacnea, and soon, Ash and Dawn emerged victorious. After the battle, she offered to train James's Cacnea and make it stronger, and James reluctantly accepted. | |||
She reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', where {{an|Barry}} revealed that he had earned the Forest Badge from her. | |||
====[[Pokémon movie]]s==== | |||
Gardenia also made a cameo in the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''. | |||
====Character==== | |||
Gardenia is an optimist and overly cheery. Her battle style is reliant on [[harsh sunlight]], which increases the power of [[move]]s like {{m|Solar Beam}} or {{m|Weather Ball}}, and her Pokémon's incredible speed. | |||
Gardenia actively seeks out new challenges, so she often ventures to the [[Eterna Forest]] to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} new Pokémon that she could train. She is also prepared to [[trade]] for {{type|Grass}}s she feels have potential. Her obsession with Grass Pokémon is overwhelming and causes her to become flustered to such an extent that she did not take {{TRT}} seriously, due to her fascination with [[James's Carnivine]] and {{TP|James|Cacnea}}. | |||

|desc=Gardenia's {{p|Cherubi}} was first seen in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!]]'' when Gardenia used it in an unofficial {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Ash's Turtwig]]. It displayed its high speed, but it was revealed that Gardenia was just trying to get a read on Turtwig's abilities before she recalled it. | |||
It later appeared during Ash and Gardenia's [[Gym]] battle during ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'', where it was able to outspeed Turtwig's attacks using its {{a|Chlorophyll}} [[Ability]] to enhance its speed and forced Ash to recall him. It then went up against {{AP|Staravia}} where Ash was able to blind it using the sunlight and then Staravia was able to knock it out. | |||
Cherubi's known moves are {{m|Magical Leaf}} and {{m|Solar Beam}}, and its Ability is {{a|Chlorophyll}}.}} | |||

|desc=Gardenia's {{p|Turtwig}} was first seen when it battled [[Ash's Turtwig]] and {{AP|Staravia}}. It had great speed and power, especially in regards to its Leech Seed attack. It was untouchable by any of Ash's Pokémon and won the match. It helped protect the [[Adamant Orb]] in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]''. | |||
During Ash's [[Gym]] battle, Gardenia used its impressive speed to once again defeat Ash's Staravia. However, it lost to Ash's own Turtwig after a fierce round. Turtwig reappeared in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields!]]'', where it was used in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside [[James's Cacnea]], but it was defeated by [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]'s {{m|Spark}}. | |||
[[Nando's Roselia]] is known to have defeated Turtwig in an earlier battle. | |||

|desc={{p|Roserade}} was the final Pokémon used by Gardenia against {{Ash}}. It was able to easily knock out Turtwig using a {{m|Weather Ball}} powered by the bright sun. When it went up against Ash's {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}, it was unable to keep up with the active Pokémon. It was eventually knocked out with a combination of {{m|Focus Punch}} and {{m|Swift}}. | |||
It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[DP183|League Unleashed!]]''. | |||
Roserade briefly appeared alongside Gardenia during the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''. | |||

=====Mentioned===== | |||
In ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type is Always Greener!]]'', Gardenia mentioned that she has a {{p|Bellossom}}, a {{p|Vileplume}}, and a {{p|Victreebel}} when she wanted to [[trade]] one of her Pokémon for [[James's Carnivine]]. | |||

| | Later, in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]'', after battling alongside James and Cacnea in a Tag Battle, Gardenia knew that Cacnea had the ability to learn {{m|Drain Punch}}, so she offered to take on Cacnea to help it reach its full potential. After much soul searching James agreed and handed Cacnea over. Gardenia soon helped Cacnea master Drain Punch and she used it in a Gym battle against {{an|Barry}}, where it proved to be a strong opponent, unlike its many battles under James's command.}} | ||

===GOTCHA!=== | |||
Gardenia briefly appeared in [[GOTCHA!]]. | |||
==In the manga== | |||
===Pocket Monsters DP=== | |||
Gardenia appeared in a flashback in [[PMDP07]]. | |||
===Pokémon Adventures=== | |||
[[File:Roark Gardenia Adventures.png|thumb|225px|[[Roark]] and his {{p|Cranidos}} with Gardenia and her {{p|Roserade}}]] | |||
Gardenia made her debut when she took a walk in the Eterna Forest with her Cherubi and Roserade. She was enjoying the fresh air and the scent of the forest when she recognized the scent of Gastly in the forest. Following the scent, she met the trio ({{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}}). She called out to the group, only to be ignored by them. Becoming annoyed with their attitude, she had her {{p|Roserade}} use {{m|Grass Knot}} to get their attention. She was surprised to hear that the trio had been to [[Old Chateau]] and fought the Ghost Pokémon in the place. Gardenia was supposed to investigate the place as a Gym Leader, but apparently was scared of ghosts. Revealing that she is a [[Gym Leader]], she challenged the trio to a Gym battle. | |||
Gardenia was the second [[Gym Leader]] that Platinum had battled against, and the first to have a [[Double Battle]] against. Gardenia sent out {{p|Roserade}} and {{p|Cherubi}} against [[Platinum's Empoleon|Platinum's Prinplup]] and [[Platinum's Rapidash|Ponyta]]. To avoid Ice- and Fire-type attacks, Gardenia and her Pokémon kept a great distance away from their challenger. But the distance didn't trouble them. Her {{p|Roserade}} used poisonous vines to attack, sending vines from the ground. This move easily knocked out Ponyta with a single shot. {{p|Cherubi}} on the other hand used {{m|Grass Knot}}. The attacks seemed to corner Prinplup, especially because after its evolution, Prinplup was prone to heavier damage from Grass Knot attacks. But the battle resulted as Platinum's victory, after she used the holes in the ground (made from Roserade's vines) to her advantage by having Prinplup blow a {{m|Blizzard}} into the holes. The holes led the ice move directly to Gardenia's two Pokémon, making them unable to battle. Recognizing her defeat, Gardenia gave Platinum the Forest Badge. | |||
Gardenia would eventually join Roark, Fantina, Maylene, Crasher Wake and Candice in the battle against Team Galactic's commanders on the Spear Pillar. Gardenia and Crasher Wake faced [[Mars]] and won. After the Gym Leaders broke one of the Red Chains and were defeated by [[Cyrus]], Gardenia gave her Cherrim to Platinum. | |||

Gardenia (Japanese: ナタネ Natane) is the Gym Leader of Eterna City's Gym, known officially as the Eterna Gym. She hands out the Forest Badge to Trainers who defeat her. She specializes in Grass-type Pokémon.
In the core series games
Gardenia uses Grass-type Pokémon in her battles. For defeating her, Trainers receive the Forest Badge, TM86 (Grass Knot), and the ability to use Cut outside of battle. Gardenia likes to explore the Eterna Forest. Unlike most Gym Leaders, challengers are required to beat all of her students to challenge her.
She appears in front of the Old Chateau to warn the player of the mysterious stories of hauntings surrounding it. She hints at herself being afraid of ghosts. Later, in Platinum, she will appear occasionally for rematches at the Battleground. She will also sometimes visit the Villa and will always arrive when the Houseplant is purchased. One of her lines of dialog at the Villa confirms her dislike of Ghost-types and she notes that she is worried about what would happen if there was a Grass/Ghost Pokémon, a type combination that had never materialized prior to Generation VI.

In the anime
Main series
Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl
Gardenia debuted in The Grass-Type Is Always Greener. She was first seen unsuccessfully attempting to catch a wild Gloom in the Eterna Forest. She then ran off to see Ash's Turtwig, which she complimented. After that, Gardenia had a short battle with Ash, revealing to him that the Eterna City Gym Leader specialized in Grass-type Pokémon, but she refrained from identifying herself as the Gym Leader. During the battle, she sent out Cherubi first, though she soon recalled it. She then sent out her own Turtwig, which defeated both Ash's Turtwig and Staravia.
Gardenia informed Ash, his friends, and Cheryl that she knew about a Combee wall near some Pomeg Berry flowers, and she joined them during their search for the Amber Castle. The group was confronted by Team Rocket, but instead of being horrified to learn they were thieves, Gardenia became infatuated with James's Carnivine and Cacnea instead. She eventually decided to battle the trio after seeing Jessie's Seviper, and also rescued Cheryl's Mothim. Gardenia later left the group after receiving a message from a Nuzleaf regarding some urgent business.
Ash and his friends encountered Gardenia again at the Eterna Historical Museum in A Secret Sphere of Influence!. Gardenia instantly recognized Nando, who had been apprehended by Officer Jenny on suspicion of theft, from his recent Gym match victory against her. Ash and the others were surprised to learn that Gardenia was in fact the Eterna Gym Leader. Later, Gardenia and her Turtwig helped recover the stolen item in question, the Adamant Orb, which had actually been stolen by Team Rocket.
Gardenia had a Gym battle with Ash in The Grass Menagerie!. Turtwig went up against Cherubi first, but it was recalled. Staravia then defeated Cherubi. After Staravia was defeated by Gardenia's Turtwig's Leech Seed, Ash defeated it with his own Turtwig. Next, Roserade defeated Ash's Turtwig with its Weather Ball, but later, it was defeated by Aipom's Swift and Focus Punch combination, thus earning Ash the Forest Badge.
Gardenia visited Emeragrove Town to promote Pokémon battling in Once There Were Greenfields. She took part in a Tag Battle alongside James, where they went up against Ash and Dawn. Gardenia's Turtwig and James's Cacnea went up against Ash's Aipom and Dawn's Pachirisu. Following Gardenia's instructions, James witnessed Cacnea as it used Drain Punch for the first time. Turtwig was taken out first because Gardenia was paying closer attention to Cacnea, and soon, Ash and Dawn emerged victorious. After the battle, she offered to train James's Cacnea and make it stronger, and James reluctantly accepted.
She reappeared in a flashback in Barry's Busting Out All Over!, where Barry revealed that he had earned the Forest Badge from her.
Pokémon movies
Gardenia also made a cameo in the ending credits of Zoroark: Master of Illusions.
Character
Gardenia is an optimist and overly cheery. Her battle style is reliant on harsh sunlight, which increases the power of moves like Solar Beam or Weather Ball, and her Pokémon's incredible speed.
Gardenia actively seeks out new challenges, so she often ventures to the Eterna Forest to catch new Pokémon that she could train. She is also prepared to trade for Grass-types she feels have potential. Her obsession with Grass Pokémon is overwhelming and causes her to become flustered to such an extent that she did not take Team Rocket seriously, due to her fascination with James's Carnivine and Cacnea.

Gardenia's Cherubi was first seen in The Grass-Type Is Always Greener! when Gardenia used it in an unofficial battle against Ash's Turtwig. It displayed its high speed, but it was revealed that Gardenia was just trying to get a read on Turtwig's abilities before she recalled it.
It later appeared during Ash and Gardenia's Gym battle during The Grass Menagerie!, where it was able to outspeed Turtwig's attacks using its Chlorophyll Ability to enhance its speed and forced Ash to recall him. It then went up against Staravia where Ash was able to blind it using the sunlight and then Staravia was able to knock it out.
Cherubi's known moves are Magical Leaf and Solar Beam, and its Ability is Chlorophyll.

Gardenia's Turtwig was first seen when it battled Ash's Turtwig and Staravia. It had great speed and power, especially in regards to its Leech Seed attack. It was untouchable by any of Ash's Pokémon and won the match. It helped protect the Adamant Orb in A Secret Sphere of Influence!.
During Ash's Gym battle, Gardenia used its impressive speed to once again defeat Ash's Staravia. However, it lost to Ash's own Turtwig after a fierce round. Turtwig reappeared in Once There Were Greenfields!, where it was used in a Tag Battle alongside James's Cacnea, but it was defeated by Dawn's Pachirisu's Spark.
Nando's Roselia is known to have defeated Turtwig in an earlier battle.

- Main article: James's Cacnea
Gardenia first met Cacnea in The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!, when it was sent out by James. Gardenia was automatically attracted to it, and she asked it to scratch her back by using Pin Missile.
Later, in Once There Were Greenfields, after battling alongside James and Cacnea in a Tag Battle, Gardenia knew that Cacnea had the ability to learn Drain Punch, so she offered to take on Cacnea to help it reach its full potential. After much soul searching James agreed and handed Cacnea over. Gardenia soon helped Cacnea master Drain Punch and she used it in a Gym battle against Barry, where it proved to be a strong opponent, unlike its many battles under James's command.

Pokémon Adventures
Gardenia made her debut when she took a walk in the Eterna Forest with her Cherubi and Roserade. She was enjoying the fresh air and the scent of the forest when she recognized the scent of Gastly in the forest. Following the scent, she met the trio (Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum). She called out to the group, only to be ignored by them. Becoming annoyed with their attitude, she had her Roserade use Grass Knot to get their attention. She was surprised to hear that the trio had been to Old Chateau and fought the Ghost Pokémon in the place. Gardenia was supposed to investigate the place as a Gym Leader, but apparently was scared of ghosts. Revealing that she is a Gym Leader, she challenged the trio to a Gym battle.
Gardenia was the second Gym Leader that Platinum had battled against, and the first to have a Double Battle against. Gardenia sent out Roserade and Cherubi against Platinum's Prinplup and Ponyta. To avoid Ice- and Fire-type attacks, Gardenia and her Pokémon kept a great distance away from their challenger. But the distance didn't trouble them. Her Roserade used poisonous vines to attack, sending vines from the ground. This move easily knocked out Ponyta with a single shot. Cherubi on the other hand used Grass Knot. The attacks seemed to corner Prinplup, especially because after its evolution, Prinplup was prone to heavier damage from Grass Knot attacks. But the battle resulted as Platinum's victory, after she used the holes in the ground (made from Roserade's vines) to her advantage by having Prinplup blow a Blizzard into the holes. The holes led the ice move directly to Gardenia's two Pokémon, making them unable to battle. Recognizing her defeat, Gardenia gave Platinum the Forest Badge.
Gardenia would eventually join Roark, Fantina, Maylene, Crasher Wake and Candice in the battle against Team Galactic's commanders on the Spear Pillar. Gardenia and Crasher Wake faced Mars and won. After the Gym Leaders broke one of the Red Chains and were defeated by Cyrus, Gardenia gave her Cherrim to Platinum.
Pokémon
Roserade and Cherubi were both sent against Platinum in a Double Battle. Since the opponent's chosen Pokémon could use Fire and Ice attacks, Gardenia used the wide area of her plain grass Gym to not being hit by those type of attacks. As a distance-attack technique, Roserade used her poisonous vines under the arena, who defeated Ponyta and badly injured Prinplup. After being attacked by Cherubi's Grass Knot (which was more powerful upon Piplup's evolution, since her weight had increased), she used her Blizzard in the tunnels the vines had dug, to deliver an underground at-distance attack.
Cherubi's only known move is Grass Knot, and her Ability is Chlorophyll.
