'''Roxie''' (Japanese: '''ホミカ''' ''Homika'') is a {{wp|musician}} who is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Virbank City]]'s Gym, known officially as the [[Virbank Gym]]. She [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. She gives the {{Badge|Toxic}} to Trainers who defeat her.

Roxie appears in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}} as a Gym Leader. She is a musician who plays the {{wp|bass guitar}}. Her Gym is a music club. Trainers who defeat Roxie will receive the Toxic Badge, along with {{TM|09|Venoshock}}.  

Roxie later makes a brief appearance after the player competes in the PWT for the first time, expressing an interest in competing in it (causing Clay to remark that word of the competition is spreading). Roxie does indeed compete in it later, along with most other Gym Leaders. In the summer, she visits [[Cynthia]] in [[Caitlin]]'s villa in [[Undella Town]].

==In the anime==

She is also a powerful Gym Leader, defeating everyone who dared to challenge her with only three Pokémon even when they challenged her with six. When Ash arrived at her Gym, she was thrilled to see his {{AP|Pikachu}}, as she too had a Pokémon originating from [[Kanto]], {{p|Koffing}}, and happily accepted his challenge.

She reappeared in a flashback in ''[[BW103|Curtain Up, Unova League!]]''. She also made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''.

[[File:Roxie Marlon Adventures.png|thumb|270px|Roxie in Pokémon Adventures]]

Roxie debuts in the {{chap|Black 2 & White 2}}. She was first mentioned by students at the [[Aspertia City]] Trainers' School as a possible invite to perform at a cultural festival.  

The Grunts eventually back Roxie and Whitley into a corner, forcing Roxie to battle them. Roxie eventually gets overwhelmed by the number of opponents, but Whitley easily defeats the Muk by using knowledge she learned at school. With their Pokémon defeated, the Grunts retreat and throw the Pokémon they stole away. After retrieving the stolen Pokémon, Roxie and Whitley exit the Sewers and return to Whitley's class at Prime Pier. After Roxie goes on ahead to return the Karrablast to the executive, the group is approached by Hugh, who reveals to everyone about the encounter with Team Plasma at the Sewers. He also reveals that one of the girls in the class is a member of Team Plasma and presents a pendant containing a picture of [[N]] he found as proof. When Whitley comes out of hiding to stop Hugh, everyone finds her behavior strange and they begin to question if Whitley was the person Hugh was talking about. Nervous and panicking, Whitley has [[Foongy]] release its spores everywhere, causing everyone except for Hugh to fall asleep.

|desc={{p|Whirlipede}} is Roxie's only known Pokémon. It was sent out to assist Roxie in finding the villains who attacked a man and stole his {{p|Karrablast}}. At the [[Castelia Sewers]], Whirlipede was used to battle the {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s' {{p|Muk}}. Due to being a Poison-type expert, Roxie managed to hold her own in battle, but was eventually overwhelmed by the number of opponents.
