Geeta (Japanese: オモダカ Omodaka) is the chairwoman of the Pokémon League in Paldea. She is Paldea's top Champion-ranked Trainer and is the chairwoman of the Academy's school board. She is the only character in the games to have the Trainer class Top Champion (Japanese: トップチャンピオン Top Champion).

In the core series

Famed across Paldea as La Primera, Geeta has a strong personality and a calm, pragmatic demeanor. She wants Trainers throughout the region to become stronger. Throughout the game, she is friendly toward the player. She encourages the player’s growth and even expresses interest in eventually recruiting them. She also encourages their friendly rivalry with Nemona. Nemona admires Geeta, who appears fond of her in turn. Geeta empathizes with Nemona’s desire to find a true rival that she doesn’t need to hold back with. This may be because Geeta admits that she herself is incapable of holding back in a battle.

Her strict management of the Gym Leaders working under her has caused some of them to state discomfort towards her to varying degrees. Larry explicitly does not like her, with one of the reasons being that she does not allow him to specialize in Normal-types as an Elite Four member. Katy is dissatisfied with having to go easy on her opponents, with Geeta’s reasoning being that Katy's Gym is closest to the academy and will be many students’ first major battle. Still, Katy praises Geeta's skill. Tulip, meanwhile, says that “That bewitching aura of hers overlaps too much with my own style.” Grusha gets nervous during her inspections because being a Gym Leader is all he has left due to his career ending injury while he was a snowboarder. Ryme is unhappy that Geeta sends the player to meet with her instead of meeting with her directly, though it is unknown what she usually thinks of Geeta. Rika, on the other hand, praises Geeta’s strength, saying that “You won’t find a mightier Champion.”

Geeta personally recruited the Elite Four. Geeta also designed the first floor of the academy, with a focus on filling it with books.

Victory Road

After the player has obtained all eight Gym Badges and defeated the Elite Four, they can battle Geeta, the Top Champion of Paldea's Pokémon League, on the building's rooftop. The player emerges as a Champion-ranked Trainer upon victory, while Geeta and the Elite Four members congratulate the player. Upon exiting the building, the player is greeted by Nemona, who excitedly asks the player whether they have become a Champion already. She wants to immediately challenge them to battle, but Geeta reminds her that “Champions must be understanding toward their opponents” and advises she let the player rest before finding a more suitable battle field.

Post-game

Geeta also participates in the Academy Ace Tournament, appearing as the player's final opponent when it is held for the first time. She can be battled as a random opponent in subsequent Academy Ace Tournaments.
