Viola was first mentioned in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'', albeit not by name, when [[Alexa]] revealed to {{Ash}} that her sister was a Gym Leader from the Kalos region. When Ash arrived in Kalos in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', he learned that Viola was absent from her Gym at Santalune City. However, Ash decided to head to [[Santalune Gym]] anyway after his challenge at [[Lumiose Gym]] was declined.

In ''[[XY006|Battling on Thin Ice!]]'', Ash challenged Viola to a [[rematch]]. Thanks to the training Ash had with {{ashfr}} between the battles, he was able to counter Viola's strategies and defeat her, winning himself the {{badge|Bug}}. She later reappeared in a flashback in ''[[XY012|To Catch a Pokémon Smuggler!]]''.

In ''[[XY112|Master Class is in Session!]]'' and ''[[XY113|Performing a Pathway to the Future!]]'', Viola watched {{an|Serena}}'s Master Class [[Pokémon Showcase]] along with Alexa.

She appeared again in flashbacks in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]''.

==In the manga==

[[File:Viola Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Viola in Pokémon Adventures]]

When X's group arrives in [[Santalune City]], Viola meets up with them again. Although previous encounters with [[Team Flare]] made X and his friends wary of adults, Viola reveals her position as a Gym Leader and offers to help the group by letting them see her photos of the Vaniville Town incident and offers sanctuary at her Gym. X and his friends agree to trust her, except for Shauna who runs off after getting mad at everyone for disregarding their earlier pact to not trust adults. At the Gym, Viola challenges X to a battle, which she ends up losing. They are interrupted by [[Celosia]] of Team Flare, who possesses Shauna and uses her to attack Y. Viola pushes Y out of the way, but ends up getting hit as a result. Viola reveals herself to still be conscious and reveals that he saw X's attempt to use Mega Evolution earlier and called fellow Gym Leader [[Korrina]] to help him learn more about it. When Celosia attempts to run off, Viola has her {{p|Surskit}} stop Celosia in her tracks with {{m|Sticky Web}}. Once Celosia was driven away, everyone regrouped back at the Gym where Viola had her head injury bandaged up.
