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.

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]]. | |||

===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. | |||
