**Adrienn Flores** is the Fairy type Gym Leader of the Reborn League. Xe hands out the Amaranth Badge, the 14th Gym Badge the player receives.

Adrienn is extremely kind and caring, even for xyr own good. Xe can also be way too generous to other people, which can lead xem into bad situations. Adrienn can also be fairly stubborn at times, especially putting faith first before xe even considers the facts. Despite that, xe is an incredibly good person at heart.

## Story Events

### Citae Astrae

Adrienn is first seen at the Citae Astrae with a Ditto disguised as Radomus's Gossip Gardevoir, where xe sides with El in trying to stop Radomus from taking the apparent Gardevoir back. Xe reveals that xe "fell down here when [xe] was inspecting the Grand Gates about an hour ago".

Cain asks about Adrienn's gender, unsure if xe is a boy or a girl, to which Adrienn responds that xe identifies as non-binary, but that reaching the top of the aerie is a more pressing matter to focus on. Shortly after the player battles El, the player encounters Adrienn outside the Grand Gates with Cain and Radomus, where it becomes apparent that Adrienn was underneath the city for over a decade, a time in which the city has deteriorated drastically, beyond Adrienn's recognition.

### Coral Ward

The player, Radomus, and Cain then follow Adrienn to xyr gym in the Coral Ward, which xe finds is in ruins. Radomus explains that the gym was left undisturbed in Adrienn's absence, theorizing that xe was frozen in time, after which xe announces that xe plans to restore not just xyr gym, but the whole of Reborn City.

### Devon Corp?

After the player activates TMX Fly, Adrienn succeeded in restoring Reborn City. Ame later sends the player to get Arclight, Adrienn, and Victoria to help her with a mission. After getting everyone, Ame reveals that there is a Team Meteor base in Reborn City itself, and ask everyone to raid it. Adrienn goes with Ame in the store front, while Arclight, Victoria and the player goes underground. Adrienn and Ame were supposedly captured, and later the player blacks out after reaching the top.

The five are captured and imprisoned, then forced to fight each other one on one (except for Ame, who battles and loses to Lin). Adrienn went up against Arclight, but refused to fight him. This results in xe having the floored seared underneath xem, with Arclight leaving without a penalty. The player later defeats Arclight, resulting with the floor underneath him falling.

After the player defeats ZEL, the player switches on the monitor. Arclight, Victoria, and Adrienn are then released from the doors. Adrienn appears fine due to xyr pokemon helping xem, but Victoria looks tired from her electrocution and Arclight is faced down on the floor. Adrienn tries to wake Arclight up but then finds out his eye was pulled off. Victoria becomes angry with herself for not being strong enough and Adrienn tries to help her calm down.

After a heart to heart talk, Adrienn carries Arclight out of the building, only to be outside in North Obsidia Ward. It turns out the group were transferred to another building when they were knocked out. Victoria then goes to Grand Hall to search for the records of this building, while Adrienn goes to find medical care for Arclight. Xe then asks the player to come to xyr gym later.

### Coral Gym

The player then goes to Adrienn's gym, but Adrienn can't battle them due to being swamped with short-handed workstations. Adrienn then asks the player to find enough volunteers xe to work with. After finding enough volunteers, xe thanks them for their hard work and agrees to battle with them. Xe also asks the player to become the champion to beat Lin, since they're the best hope to do it. After beating Adrienn, xe gives the player the gym badge and a ticket to Tourmaline Desert. Xe then wishes the player good luck and farewell for now.

 [Adrienn]: Okay, <player>. Are you ready to give this another try?

 [Adrienn]: That's the spirit. Back up and at 'em!

[Adrienn]: Okay, let's try again!

## Profile

Yo, Reborn City! What's up?! We're here with the Reborn Rundown giving you a look at the leaders of the Reborn League! I'm your host, DJ Arclight, now on air!
Today I'd like to talk about Reborn's Fairy type Gym Leader, Adrienn Flores. Personally speaking, I've only gotten to know Adrienn very recently, but I'd like to think that in out time working around Reborn City, we've become pretty good friends. Adrienn's that sort of person who knows how to sing xyr spirit into every syllable, and believe me, it shows. Just in the small amount of time xe's been around, xe's been able to attract more people to xyr life and xyr cause then anyone else I've ever met.
Hold up, that gives me an idea. I've got a feeling that Adrienn would give some out-of-this world dating advice. Listeners, if you'd be interested in having Adrienn on the show for a segment, why don't you hit us up on Chatter and let us know what questions you'd have.
But back to the silver-haired silvertongue's day-to-day dealings, don't mistake xyr softness of heart for softness in battle. Adrienn's battle style numbers in Doubles, and a Fairy pairing makes a very scary and fairy harrying team tearing into challengers left and right! In particular, watch out for xyr Florges, Rhyanon-- a Pokemon that might as well run in xyr family. With mixed moves to pack a pixie punch and more bulf than a beefed-up Blissey, it's gonna take a team effort to uproot this flower power.
That's all for now, but remember, Trainers, Keep fighting with everything you've got! Hold your spirits high, and even you can defeat the Reborn League!

## Interview

 Gossip Gardevoir's interview intermission!
Hello! Gossip Gardevoir here in Interview Intermission, bringing YOU the inside scoop on Reborn's celebrity figures!
Today we have Reborn City's newest, and, in a way, oldest celebrity with us. Please welcome the Coral Gym Leader, Adrienn!
ADRIENN: Thank you.
GARDEVOIR: Let's catch up our listeners from outside Reborn City. Recently you've undertaken a huge number of rennovation projects, which no doubt everyone within the city limits has noticed. Tell us, after being trapped in time for almost a decade, what inspired you to take on this enormous workload?
ADRIENN: When I grew up -- or rather, in the time I grew up -- this whole time distorsion thing is so confusing... Anyway, back then Reborn was a region renowned for its beauty, and the city matched that acre for acre. Since I came back, I've seen somany ways how Reborn City is just not what it once was. It's shocking-- painful even. So, it's only natural that I'm going to do everything I can to fix it.
GARDEVOIR: Well said! Aren't you cute, always playing the good samaritan! "I will protect you, Gardevoir!"
ADRIENN: Ahaha, can't we let that go by now?
GARDEVOIR: Nope! "I will restore the city!" It's adorable, really!
ADRIENN: Do I really sound like that? You're starting to embarrass me.
GARDEVOIR: Good! That's my job, you know?
ADRIENN: No, I um, didn't know actually. I thought this was a formal interview?
GARDEVOIR: It is! It's so formal! It's the formal-est! There hasn't been a more formal interview yet!
ADRIENN: Based on the ones I've seen, I would believe that...
GARDEVOIR: What? What's that supposed to mean?! Now listen here, before you go saying that, let me explain you a thing! Wait, first... Cut, cut! That's all for today!

## Trivia

* Adrienn's name is apparently a word play of fae, which is also known as a fairy. The name also being gender neutral was also a bonus.
* The nicknames Adrienn gives to xyr Pokemon are apparently based on Celtic/Gaelic fairy names.
* Adrienn's VS sprite is based on Cress's sprite from Pokémon Black and White.
* If the player character happens to identify as non-binary, Cain remarks how Adrienn is like the player, and Adrienn will say that it's nice to have someone to relate to (this also adds one point to the player's relation with xem).
