Viola (Pokémon)

Viola is the Gym Leader of Santalune City in Pokémon X and Y.
She is voiced by Noriko Shitaya and Aya Endō in the Japanese version, and by Lori Gardner and Brianna Knickerbocker in the English version.
==Appearance==
Viola often wears a small white sleeveless shirt, and pants with 3 small pockets on each side, always leaving her belly exposed. She wears a green wristband on her left hand, and boots with green laces. Viola has Sandy Blonde hair that she keeps in a bun using the pin Valerie gave to her as a Birthday Present. Has green eyes, and always has the camera Alexa gave to her as a Birthday Present around her neck, and a smaller but longer camera that reaches to her belly, but the smaller camera hasn't been seen in the anime or manga. In the manga, she sometimes wears a wristband on her right hand as well, and sometimes, her belly button can be seen as well in the manga. After Viola was injured by Shauna in the manga, Viola wore her normal attire, but had her head injury bandaged, and her hair in a ponytail, but after she fully recovered, she went back to her normal appearance.
In her anime Battle Chateau attire, she wore a black and white dress, with high heels, kept her hair in a ponytail, and also wore two bracelets on her left hand. Viola, like all other Duke's and Duchess must wear a Red Robe while battling at the Battle Chateau.
==Personality==
Viola is a very cheerful and friendly young girl. In the Anime and Manga, Viola is very close to her older sister Alexa, and even helps her sister with her reporting at times. As shown in the Manga, Viola is more quiet than Alexa when it comes to interviews. As shown in "Zygarde Agitated", Viola can easily sense if something is bothering her sister.
Viola is also a very clever battler, as shown in Anime episode "A Blustery Santalune Gym Battle" where her tactics completely confused and overwhelmed Ash and his Pokémon, and X and Y Manga "Chapter 38" where she was able to come up with ideas to free the captive Pokémon, and protect her friends from Delphox's attacks.
In the Anime, Viola also displays annoyance when Grant falls from the Battle Chateau's walls, and they also have a friendly rivalry.
In the Manga, Viola is shown to be forgiving, as shown in "Kangaskhan Kangascan't" when she let Y and her friends stay at her Gym, despite Y telling her "she greatly hates reporters like her" and when Shauna was feeling very guilty for injuring her in " Lucky Lucario Was Here". Viola is also shown to be selfless in "The Aegislash Agenda" when she pushes Y out of the way of Shauna's attack, and took the hit herself. Viola is also very helpful, as shown when she offered Y and her friends to look at her photos she took at Vaniville Town, called Korrina to come help X learn about his Mega Ring, and when Celosia was trying to get away with the Kangaskhanite, she sends out her Surskit to use Sticky Web to prevent Celosia from escaping. Even if she's hurt, she will always prove to be a great friend.
However, Viola can be a bit judgmental at times, as shown in Anime episode "Battling On Thin Ice" where she states in the conclusion of the Gym Battle Rematch "Ash's Pikachu can't defeat her Vivillon in a tired state, and he'll have to wait longer for his Badge", only for Ash to prove her statement wrong.
In X and Y Manga Chapter ￼"The Aegislash Agenda" she also displays a bit of sadness, because she missed X's smile, because she is known as "the one who doesn't let a smile escape her".
In Anime episode "Coming Back Into The Cold" Alexa states "Viola hates losing Pokémon Battles", and in "Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin" Alexa states "her trip's away from the Gym are usually long.
Viola often makes photography puns, even when she's battling. Although, she didn't do this at the Battle Chateau.
In Pokémon X and Y Manga Chapter "Lucky Lucario Was Here" Viola is shown to have a mischievous side as well, as shown when as she playfully advises Celosia to struggle while stuck in Sticky Web, knowing this would cause the women to get more stuck in Sticky Web.
No matter what, Viola is always ready to take a picture, even while battling, and would never let a chance for a great picture getaway from her.
