Skyla (Japanese: フウロ Fuuro) is the Gym Leader of Mistralton City's Gym, known officially as the Mistralton Gym. She specializes in Template:Type2 Pokémon. She gives the Jet Badge to Trainers who defeat her.

In the games

Skyla appears in Pokémon Black and White as the Gym Leader of Mistralton City's gym. This gym is the sixth to be challenged by the player. Trainers who defeat Skyla will receive the Jet Badge, along with TM62 (Acrobatics).

She first appears in Mistralton as the player arrives in the town, where she heads off to the Celestial Tower to the north. After the player talks to her and rings the bell at the top of the tower, she heads back to the gym. She also reappears at N's Castle where she and the other Unova Gym Leaders hold off the Seven Sages. In the summer, she visits Cynthia at Undella Town.

Quotes

Pokémon Black and White

Mistralton Gym

  • Before battle
"Hee-hee! I've been waiting for you. Did you enjoy flying with the help of the Mistralton Gym cannons? They're my pride and joy! This time, let's try something else!"
  • During battle
"When I think about a match with a fabulous Trainer like you, it's like I'm walking on air!"
  • After sending out last Pokémon
"This is my last Pokémon... But I'll never give up hope!"
  • When defeated
"Being your opponent in battle is a new source of strength to me. Thank you!"
  • After being defeated
"You're an amazing Pokémon Trainer. My Pokémon and I are happy, because for the first time in a while, we could fight with our full strength. This is an official League Gym Badge. I think it will look good on you."
"Wow, hot stuff! With that many Gym Badges, Pokémon up to Lv. 70 will obey you. Also, as thanks for a Pokémon battle that made me very happy, I want you to have this TM."
"My present to you is Acrobatics. If the user doesn't have a held item, its power doubles. It's a pretty technical move. Be sure to compensate for the lack of a held item! By the way, when I flew over Twist Mountain on the way to Icirrus City... Team Plasma—is that the name? Anyway, they were heading for the city. What kind of people are they?"
"Icirrus City, where you'll find the next Gym, is past Route 7, just after you cross Twist Mountain. It's a hop, skip, and a jump when flying, but it's a really challenging walk. Heads up! Make sure you're ready for it!"

Trivia

  • Her Japanese Leader title is 大空の ぶっとびガール.
  • She shares characteristics with another Gym Leader, Winona. They are both female Flying-type specialists and are both the sixth Gym Leader to be battled in their respective regions. They also happen to live near rainy areas.
  • Her "hair barrette" seems to resemble an airplane propeller.
  • Skyla is the first of the Unova Gym Leaders whose Pokémon don't all know the TM that she gives to the player upon their victory (with only her Swoobat knowing Acrobatics).
