Ryme (Japanese: ライム Lime) is a Gym Leader of Montenevera's Gym, known officially as the Montenevera Gym. She specializes in Ghost-type Pokémon.
In the core series
Ryme is the younger sister of Tyme, the math instructor of Naranja AcademyS/Uva AcademyV, who was previously the Montenevera Gym Leader. Ryme is also a renowned hip-hop artist who often partakes in rap battles. She puts great emotions and passions into both her rapping and her Pokémon battles.[1]
In addition to her Gym Badge, Ryme gives out TM114 (Shadow Ball) after defeating her.
According to the book The Musician’s Register, which the player can read at Naranja AcademyS/Uva AcademyV, Ryme has been a legendary rapper for four decades. As a teen, she wrote a song to express her grief for her puppy Pokémon. Her singing revived it as a ghost Pokémon. She is still said to “bring the dead to their feet” as the “MC of RIP” thanks to the themes of death in her rap music.
Pokémon
Gym battle
Ryme is faced in a Double Battle. Certain actions during the battle will cause the spectators to cheer for either Trainer. This causes the Pokémon from the supported side to receive stat boots in one or more of their stats.

Trivia
- Ryme's Japanese Gym Leader title is ソウルフルビート.
- Befitting her status as a Ghost-type specialist, Ryme's front-falling ponytail resembles a skeleton's arm and her central back braid ends in a shape resembling a simplified representation of a pelvis.
- The fact that Ryme's ace and Terastallized Pokémon is Toxtricity alludes to their shared trait of music.
