Trivia

• Gardenia's black undershirt is slightly lengthened from its original core series design to cover more of her torso. This change has carried over to the core series, as seen in Gardenia's official artwork and in-game model in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

Origin

Gardenia's design is based on her appearance in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Roserade is Gardenia's signature Pokémon in the core series games. Roserade's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2.
