[[File:Viola Gym Battle XY.png|thumb|left|250px|Viola challenging the player]] | |||
Viola is the first Gym Leader to be challenged by the [[Player character|player]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her will be given the {{badge|Bug}}, along with {{TM|83|Infestation}}. She is the younger sister of [[Alexa]], a reporter based in the Kalos region.<ref name=AlexaSister>''"Oh, Viola! Viola is the Gym Leader of Santalune City. Not only is she an expert with Bug-type Pokémon, but she’s also an up-and-coming photography pro! Her older sister, Alexa, happens to be a reporter!"''</ref> She is also seemingly good friends with fellow Gym Leader [[Valerie]], who gifted her the barrette that her hair is tied in for her birthday.<ref name=Barrette>''"Hooray! Viola has arrived! She’s fabulous! So fabulous! I’m so crazy about those eyebrows! The barrette that Viola always wears is a birthday gift from Valerie!"''</ref> | |||
As well as being a Gym Leader, Viola is a professional photographer. According to the [[television]] show ''Gym Freaks'', Viola's camera was a birthday gift from Alexa.<ref name=CameraGift>''"Oooh... Ahhh... Viola has arrived! She’s fabulous! So fabulous! I’m so crazy about those eyebrows! The camera that Viola always has is a birthday gift from her sister, Alexa. Awww. If I was born again, I’d like to be the camera."''</ref> She seems to massively enjoy photography, often speaking with analogies surrounding cameras or photography in general. Her work, such as "To be Evolved" and "Nectar's Siren Song" can be found on the first floor of the Santalune Gym. Viola also has a habit of saying "Fantastic" many times, both in Pokémon X and Y, as well as in [[Pokémon Masters EX]].<ref name=Fantastic>''"You and your Pokémon have shown me a whole new depth of field! Fantastic! Just fantastic!"''</ref> | |||
===Appearance=== | |||
[[File:Viola concept art.png|thumb|200px|Viola's settei]] | |||
Viola is a slim woman of seemingly average height. She has sandy blonde hair, which she wears in a rather unique hairstyle; being loosely tied into a barrette at the back, with two strands at the front left untied, which have rounded ends, making them resemble [[wp:Antenna_(biology)|antennae]]. Viola wears a slightly cropped white tank top, green cargo pants that have a white waistband, and grey boots. She carries two cameras - one around her neck, and one to her side. | |||
Her official concept artwork depicts an alternate outfit for her, consisting of what seems to be a more formal top, and her hair more neatly tied into a ponytail. While this outfit does not appear in [[Pokémon X and Y]], she was portrayed with the same ponytail in [[Pokémon the Series: XY]], as well as in her Holiday 2023 Outfit in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. | |||

Y angrily reveals her hatred for reporters after they caused her friend {{adv|X}} to become a shut-in and refuse to leave his house despite his friends' constant efforts. Before they can continue, the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}} appear and begin destroying the town while fighting each other. When Viola wonders if the two are actually even Pokémon, Alexa states that she isn't sure either but notes that according to a 3,000 year old legend, Xerneas and Yveltal appear every 1,000 years. | ||
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. | When X's group arrives in [[Santalune City]], Viola meets up with them again.

A December 2014 patch to the 3DS updated the filter, allowing "Viola" to be entered. | ||
