===Main series===
[[File:Valerie anime.png|thumb|250px|Valerie in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Valerie is the [[Laverre City]] [[Gym Leader]], as well as a famous fashion designer. She operates her fashion retail store and hosts fashion shows inside the [[Laverre Gym]].
 
She debuted in ''[[XY073|A Fashionable Battle!]]''. After {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived in Laverre City, {{an|Serena}} became excited about the prospect of meeting her. When a fashion show was about to start, Valerie became unsure of what to do while preparing for the fashion show. [[Blossom]] and {{kal|Katherine}} brought over Serena and {{an|Bonnie}}, and Valerie recommended them to replace two participants who didn't show up for her fashion show. During the event, Valerie had a Gym battle, to showcase her designs, against [[Sawyer]] and easily defeated his {{p|Bagon}} with the help of her {{p|Spritzee}}'s speed. This battle caused Ash to realize that Valerie was going to be tough to deal with.
 
In ''[[XY074|Fairy-Type Trickery!]]'', Valerie got to battle Ash next. When Ash and his friends arrived in the Laverre Gym, they initially noticed that Valerie was absent. She then made a grand entrance with flower petals to welcome Ash to the Gym. Beginning their two-on-two match, Valerie called out {{p|Sylveon}} first. After {{AP|Fletchinder}} defeated Valerie's Sylveon, Valerie sent out Spritzee next. Her strategy was revealed when she had Spritzee use {{m|Trick Room}}. This managed to defeat Fletchinder, as Fletchinder took too long with the multiple {{m|Flame Charge}}s during the stage Trick Room was active. Valerie dealt with Hawlucha next. By treating it as a wrestling ring, Hawlucha withheld Spritzee's attacks and then {{m|X-Scissor}}ed the Trick Room, shattering it. Spritzee was defeated by Hawlucha, thus defeating Valerie. The {{tc|Furisode Girl}}s commented that Valerie hadn't lost to anybody in a while. She then gave Ash the {{badge|Fairy}} as proof for defeating her. She reappeared in a flashback in [[XY075|the next episode]].
 
She appeared in a fantasy in ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', when Ash was talking to [[Everett]] about the Gym Leaders that he had defeated in Kalos, in order for him to be able to compete in the [[Lumiose Conference]].
 
In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Valerie was seen in her Gym, watching [[Lysandre]]'s broadcast from [[Lumiose City]] along with her Pokémon. In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'' and ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', Valerie and Spritzee were among those who helped to destroy the [[Giant Rock]].
 
She reappeared in a flashback in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]''.
 
====Character====
Valerie is always poised and polite. Behind this, however, Valerie is bold and confident in how she conducts herself on the battlefield. Her Fairy Pokémon are trained with beauty and power, or what she calls "hidden fangs", in mind. Valerie is incredibly empathetic and revealed that she wishes to be a Pokémon. As a result, she has developed the unique ability to speak to some Pokémon, which allows her to use them to their full abilities in battle such as her {{p|Sylveon}}'s ribbons.
 
She is also creative and has an eye for detail. Valerie believes that only nature represents true beauty, and often incorporates floral and Pokémon motifs in her fashion designs. Her designs are best showcased in battle, where their intricate details and the free-flowing movement of the materials come to life.

===GOTCHA!===
Valerie briefly appeared in [[GOTCHA!]].
 
==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Valerie Olympia Adventures.png|thumb|270px|Valerie in Pokémon Adventures]]
Valerie debuted in ''[[PS577|Quilladin Stands]]''. She, alongside [[Grant]] and [[Olympia]], went to visit [[Korrina]], who was in a [[Laverre City]] hospital recuperating from injuries she sustained in a battle with [[Team Flare]]. They soon left to have a meeting with the other [[Kalos]] Gym Leaders to decide on how to deal with Team Flare. In ''[[PS579|Pyroar Breathes]]'', {{adv|Y}}, {{adv|Trevor}}, {{adv|Tierno}}, and {{adv|Shauna}} joined the Gym Leaders and traveled to [[Geosenge Town]] to confront Team Flare. Shortly after they arrived, the group witnessed the [[ultimate weapon]] emerging from underground like a flower bud. To prevent the weapon from blooming, the Gym Leaders and Y used their bodies to keep the petals in place by force, but were met with interference by [[Bryony]].


*When defeated
The ultimate weapon eventually fired anyway, but the combined efforts of the Gym Leaders and their allies successfully weakened the weapon enough to make it unable to take any innocent lives. Using her newly-obtained {{p|Xerneas}}, [[Xerxer]], Y tried to destroy the ultimate weapon, but was interrupted by [[Malva]] and her {{p|Yveltal}}. Due to Xerneas and Yveltal being evenly matched, [[Xerosic]] announced that [[Lysandre]] ordered a ceasefire. Xerxer confirmed this and retreated, taking Y and the others with it.
:''"I hope the sun is shining tomorrow... That would be reason enough to smile."''


*After being defeated
In ''[[PS582|Pinsir Glares]]'', [[Ramos]] revealed that Team Flare blamed the destruction caused by the ultimate weapon on the Gym Leaders and the [[Vaniville Town|Vaniville]] children. {{adv|X}} and his friends were advised to keep out of the public's eye while the Gym Leaders helped rebuild the damaged areas. In ''[[PS593|Xerneas Gives]]'', Valerie, Grant, [[Ramos]], Olympia, and [[Wulfric]] helped stop Team Flare's attempt to reactivate the ultimate weapon by defeating a group of Grunts that were stationed around Cyllage City. After Team Flare was fully defeated, Valerie and her allies met with X and his friends at [[Lumiose City]] to congratulate them on their victory.  
:''"Yes... that was a fine battle. I shall reward you for this great victory. This is the {{badge|Fairy}}. It is yours now. Its beauty is captivating, is it not? ... ... ... ... ... ... Ah... Do forgive me. I was so captivated, I forgot for a moment that it is yours."''


:''"This captivating Fairy Badge will endear any Pokémon up to Lv. 80 to you... Yes, even those Pokémon that you may receive from others will obey you. I also wish to award you this TM... Please consider it a personal gift from me, not simply the winnings of a battle."''

{{TrainerPoké

|img=Valerie Mr. Mime Adventures.png
|img_size=70px
|epnum=PS577
|epname=Quilladin Stands
|desc={{p|Mr. Mime}} is Valerie's only known Pokémon. It accompanied Valerie to visit an injured Korrina at a Laverre City hospital. Later, it was used at Geosenge Town to keep the ultimate weapon from being activated. By creating blocks of solid air, it helped keep the other Gym Leaders' Pokémon floating in the air. Bryony saw through this trick and used her Bisharp to cut through the blocks, sending Mr. Mime and the other Pokémon plummeting to the ground. When the ultimate weapon was fired, it created a barrier to protect the Gym Leaders and Y from its effect.  


:''"Oh? My, what a curious feeling... I can't seem to recall any longer [[Dazzling Gleam (move)|which move]] is contained in [[TM99|that TM]]. I hope you might forgive me."''
None of Mr. Mime's moves are known.}}


:''"My designs are said to be rather mystifying. Do you agree with that? I've always wanted to be a Pokémon, you see. That desire is my inspiration and what I try to achieve by designing. And yet...the only time I feel I am truly one with Pokémon is when we are embroiled in desperate battle. I wonder why that is... Hmm... Could it be-- Never mind. It is nothing, kind Trainer."''

==Trivia==
* Valerie's Japanese Leader title is {{tt|歷史の国から 來た 乙女|The maiden from a country of history}}.
<!--Please do not add trivia about Valerie being the first Fairy type Gym Leader. Since this is the first Generation to have the Fairy type in it, it is a moot point. Also, her outfit resembling an Audino is subjective unless officially said otherwise.-->
