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.

She appears in front of the [[Old Chateau]], to warn the player of the mysterious stories of hauntings surrounding it. She hints at herself being afraid of ghosts. Later, in {{v2|Platinum}}, she will appear occasionally for rematches at the [[Battleground]]. She will also sometimes visit the [[Villa]] and will always arrive when the Houseplant is purchased. One of her lines of dialog at the Villa confirms her dislike of {{type|Ghost}}s and she notes that she is worried about what would happen if there was a {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} Pokémon.

Gardenia first appeared in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener]]''. She first appeared attempting to capture a wild {{p|Gloom}} but failed before running off to see {{AP|Ash's Turtwig|Torterra}}, which she complimented. She then had a short {{pkmn|battle}} with {{Ash}}, revealing to him that the Eterna City Gym Leader specialized in Grass Pokémon but not that it is her yet. She sent out {{p|Cherubi}} first, though she soon recalled it. She then sent out her own {{p|Turtwig}}, which defeated both {{AP|Turtwig|Torterra}} and {{AP|Staravia|Staraptor}}.
Gardenia made her debut appearance in the [[Pokémon anime]] in ''[[DP031|The Grass-Type Is Always Greener]]''. She first appeared attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Gloom}} but failed before running off to see [[Ash's Turtwig]], which she complimented. She then had a short {{pkmn|battle}} with {{Ash}}, revealing to him that the [[Eterna City]] [[Gym Leader]] specialized in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} but not that it is her yet. She sent out {{p|Cherubi}} first, though she soon [[recall]]ed it. She then sent out her own {{p|Turtwig}}, which defeated both Turtwig and {{AP|Staravia}}.


Gardenia has an obsession with Grass Pokémon to the extent that she did not appear to be taking Team Rocket seriously due to her fascination with [[James's Carnivine]] and {{TP|James|Cacnea}}. But she seems to get over this problem in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'', when she battled the Team Rocket without any hesitation by sending her {{p|Turtwig}} out. She also reveals her rank as a Gym Leader in this episode.

Gardenia had a Gym battle with Ash in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]''. She sent out her {{p|Cherubi}}, {{p|Turtwig}}, and {{p|Roserade}}. [[Ash's Torterra|Ash's Turtwig]] went up against {{p|Cherubi}} first, but it was returned. {{AP|Ash's Staravia|Staraptor}} defeated {{p|Cherubi}}. After Staravia was defeated by Gardenia's Turtwig, Ash sent his out. It resulted in Ash's Turtwig's victory. {{p|Roserade}} beat Ash's Turtwig with its {{m|Weather Ball}}, but later was defeated by [[Dawn's Ambipom|Ash's Aipom]]'s {{m|Swift}} and {{m|Focus Punch}}. Gardenia made use of the {{m|Sunny Day|sunny weather}} to her advantage, such as increasing {{p|Cherubi}}'s speed and allowing {{p|Roserade}} to launch fiery {{m|Weather Ball}} attacks. Despite this situation, {{Ash}} succeeded in defeating Gardenia and earning a {{Badge|Forest}}.

She returned in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]'' when she took part in a [[Double Battle]] alongside [[James]]. After the battle, she offered to train his {{TP|James|Cacnea}} and make it stronger. She also reappeared in flashbacks in [[DP048]], ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', and [[DP120]] where she was revealed to have helped {{TP|James|Cacnea}} to perfect {{m|Drain Punch}}.

Later in ''[[DP054|Once There Were Greenfields]]'', after battling alongside James and Cacnea in a Tag Battle, Gardenia knew that Cacnea had the ability to learn {{m|Drain Punch}}, so offered to take on Cacnea to help it reach its full potential. After much soul searching James agreed and handed Cacnea over. Gardenia soon helped Cacnea master Drain Punch and she used it in a Gym battle against {{an|Barry}} where it proved to be a strong opponent.}}
