'''Iris''' (Japanese: '''アイリス''' ''Iris'') is a {{type|Dragon}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}. She was one of the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Opelucid City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Opelucid Gym]], giving out the {{badge|Legend}}, in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon White}}. Two years later, in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, she is the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Unova]] [[region]]'s [[Unova League|Pokémon League]].

Iris appears in {{game|Black and White|s}}. In both versions, she shows up in [[Castelia City]] to aid the {{player}}, [[Burgh]], and [[Bianca]] when Bianca's Munna is stolen. During this time, she acts as Bianca's bodyguard.

In Black, after defeating the [[Pokémon_League_(Unova)|Pokémon League]], she will teach {{m|Draco Meteor}} to the player's {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon if they have full [[friendship]]. She can be found on the first floor of [[Drayden]]'s home in Opelucid City.

'I'm from Opelucid City, and I just went home for the first time in a long time. I saw [[Drayden]] and Iris counting up a big handful of coins! Isn't that setting a bad example for kids, flaunting your wealth like that?' Hmmm... That's living the high life! But you know, the Opelucid Gym Badge is shiny like a coin... Maybe you saw wrong? 'The National Gymquirer'! We eagerly await your letters!"''

In this series, Iris is not the Gym Leader of the Opelucid Gym, but is simply the apprentice of [[Drayden]]. She originally lived in [[Blackthorn City]], also known as the [[Village of Dragons]], where she trained to become a master of Dragon-types. Much to Iris's chagrin, the {{OBP|Master|Dragon Tamer clan}} of the Dragon Tamer clan had Drayden come to take her to Unova so that he could tutor her. After arriving in Unova, Drayden introduced Iris to [[Alder]], who would also become her teacher and taught her about spirituality.

====History====

[[File:Iris Drayden Adventures.png|left|thumb|250px|Iris in Pokémon Adventures]]

Iris debuted in ''[[PS478|Big City Battles]]''. She first informed [[Burgh]] that {{adv|Black}} arrived to challenge his Gym. After accidentally insulting his newest art piece, Iris cheered Burgh up by complimenting the smell of honey on his body. Later, Iris took an unconscious {{adv|Bianca}} to the [[Castelia Gym]], where she revealed the girl was attacked and had her Pokémon stolen. With Black's detective abilities, the group found the thieves were [[Team Plasma]] and managed to retrieve all of the Pokémon they had stolen.

In ''[[PS520|Cold Hard Truth]]'', Team Plasma launched their attack on the Pokémon League by summoning [[N's Castle]] from the depths of the earth. The castle surrounded the League building while several {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s emerged and cornered everyone. Iris and Drayden worked together to protect innocent bystanders from the Grunts. After Team Plasma was defeated, Iris and the others watched as N and {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Zekrom}} flew off to parts unknown.

In ''[[PS526|Mr. Perfect]]'', Drayden revealed that he made Iris Leader of the [[Opelucid Gym]] so he could focus on dealing with Team Plasma's resurgence.
