'''Gardenia''' (Japanese: '''ナタネ''' ''Natane'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Eterna City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Eterna Gym]]. She hands out the {{Badge|Forest}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her. She [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

Gardenia uses {{type|Grass}} Pokémon in her battles. For defeating her, Trainers receive the {{Badge|Forest}}, {{TM|86|Grass Knot}}, and the ability to use {{m|Cut}} outside of battle. Gardenia likes to explore the [[Eterna Forest]]. Unlike most Gym Leaders, challengers are required to beat all of her students to challenge her.

==In the anime==

===Main series===

Gardenia debuted in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener]]''. She was first seen unsuccessfully attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Gloom}} in the [[Eterna Forest]]. She then ran off to see [[Ash's Turtwig]], which she complimented. After that, Gardenia had a short {{pkmn|battle}} with {{Ash}}, revealing to him that the [[Eterna City]] [[Gym Leader]] specialized in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but she refrained from identifying herself as the Gym Leader. During the battle, she sent out {{p|Cherubi}} first, though she soon [[recall]]ed it. She then sent out her own {{p|Turtwig}}, which defeated both Ash's Turtwig and {{AP|Staravia}}.
