Lindsay40k:

==Welcome==
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], {{BASEPAGENAME}}!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
*The {{bp|manual of style}} is very important. Make sure to read it. It outlines all official policies of Bulbapedia.
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The P, of course, is accessed easily by holding Shift and pressing the P key, while the é can be accessed using Alt + 130 or Alt + 0233 on a Windows computer, and Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can click it in the character palette below the editbox.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B''' (which is, again, accessed by holding Shift and pressing the B key). The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
*The use of {{cat|link templates}} is official policy. For an explanation on their use, see the page on {{bp|shortlinks}}.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. You will have to register separately for it, as well. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded.
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:{{PAGENAME}}/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
*A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem, can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].

Thank you, and have a good time editing here! --'''[[User:Optimus35|It's the <sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Ph34r4ever|Talk]]|[[User:Optimus35/sig/Pikachu|Links]]''13:59 1 Jun 2008''''' 13:59, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

:''For the [[Pokémon coordinator]] who battled {{an|May}}, see [[Erica]]''
----
'''Erika''' (Japanese: '''エリカ''' ''Erika'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Celadon City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Celadon Gym]]. She hands out the [[Badge#Rainbow Badge|Rainbow Badge]] to [[Pokémon trainer|trainers]] who defeat her. She is a serene young woman who specializes in {{t|Grass}}-type [[Pokémon]]. She sometimes dresses in elegant kimonos and seems to represent traditional Japanese beauty, and perhaps [[wp:geisha|geisha]] culture.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Erika6.gif|left|thumb|Erika in street clothes from the [[anime]].]]
Erika appeared in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation]]'', running a perfumery in Celadon City where she sold a special brand of perfume made from the essence of her favorite Pokémon, {{p|Gloom}}. [[Misty]], [[Brock]], and {{TP|Ash| Pikachu}} were enamored with the scents, but [[Ash]] insulted the perfume. In protest, the manager, who was later revealed to be the Gym Leader Erika, had him banned from her store and by extension the greenhouse/[[Celadon Gym]].
[[Image:ErikaGloom.gif|right|thumb|Erika with her {{p|Gloom}}.]]
[[Jessie]] and [[James]] were sneaking into the gym trying to steal the perfume scents to sell them, but they were stamped with a red X and banned from the gym, too. Ash found them and untied them in exchange for help entering the gym.

Disguised a girl named [[Ashley]], Ash signed up as a student at the Gym. Erika was reading a fairy tale to some Grass-type Pokémon when he found and recognized her. Pikachu instantly recognized Ash and exposed him. Erika finally agreed to a battle for the Gym Badge. However, their match was interrupted when [[Team Rocket]] started a fire in the Gym as revenge for being thrown out of the gym.

Ash risked his life to run in and rescue Erika's beloved [[Erika's Gloom|Gloom]], who had once saved her from a wild {{p|Grimer}} when she was a little girl. Out of thanks, Erika awarded Ash with the Rainbow Badge.

She is voiced by 氷上恭子 ''Kyoko Hikami'' in the original Japanese version, by [[Leah Applebaum]] in the English dub, and by [[Letícia Quinto]] in the Brazilian dub.

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimorierikaoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Erika from ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'']]
Erika's title is ''The Nature-Loving Princess''.

Erika is ladylike, and a teacher of flower-arranging. She is a quiet girl, but she's well-known in Celadon City.

Erika only collects Pokémon if she considers them attractive, though her definition of attractive seems to include varieties only a botanist could love. She also tends to doze off quite a bit, but will become inspired after a good match.

In addition to the Rainbow Badge, Erika gives out [[TM21]], {{m|Mega Drain}}, in [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red, Blue]], [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Green]], and [[Pokémon Yellow Version|Yellow]]. In [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Pokémon Gold, Silver]], [[Pokémon Crystal Version|Crystal]], and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]], she gives out [[TM19]], {{m|Giga Drain}}.

==In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga==
[[Image:Erika.PNG|right|frame|Erika]]
In the ''[[Pokémon Special]]'' manga, Erika is an elegant young princess who gives lectures at universities and practices archery. She is allied with the "good" Gym Leaders of Kanto, and often assists [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] during crises.

She sent {{Special|Red}} out on a quest to capture an unusual {{p|Eevee}} that could change at will between its three elemental forms. Erika threatened to kill Eevee; however, it turned out that she was just testing Red's character.

==In the TCG==
In the [[TCG]], the card {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika|16}} allows each player to draw up to three cards. Another card, {{TCG ID|Gym Challenge|Erika's Kindness|103}}, demonstrates her kindness, depicting her as helping a {{p|Growlithe}} out of the rain. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika's Maids|109}} enables the player to trade two cards in a hand for two Pokémon in the deck, both with Erika in their names. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Charity|99}} is attached to the player's Active Pokémon, and if that Pokémon is not knocked out, the card returns to the owner's hand; it allows the player to reduce the damage their attacks inflict on the Defending Pokémon. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika's Perfume|110}} allows the player to peek at the hand of the opponent and force them to summon any number of basic Pokémon from the hand to the bench.

As in the anime, she also appears to make fragrances, such as LeAF, depicted on Erika's perfume.

There is a [[Theme Deck]] named for Erika in the {{TCG|Gym Heroes}} expansion. It has two versions, [[Erika (TCG)|English]] and [[Erika (TCG - Japan)|Japanese]].

* Erika is the only Gym Leader who originated from the video games and kept her Japanese name.

:''For the [[Pokémon coordinator]] who battled {{an|May}}, see [[Erica]]''
----
'''Erika''' (Japanese: '''エリカ''' ''Erika'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Celadon City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Celadon Gym]]. She hands out the [[Badge#Rainbow Badge|Rainbow Badge]] to [[Pokémon trainer|trainers]] who defeat her. She is a serene young woman who specializes in {{t|Grass}}-type [[Pokémon]]. She sometimes dresses in elegant kimonos and seems to represent traditional Japanese beauty, and perhaps [[wp:geisha|geisha]] culture.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Erika6.gif|left|thumb|Erika in street clothes from the [[anime]].]]
Erika appeared in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation]]'', running a perfumery in Celadon City where she sold a special brand of perfume made from the essence of her favorite Pokémon, {{p|Gloom}}. [[Misty]], [[Brock]], and {{TP|Ash| Pikachu}} were enamored with the scents, but [[Ash]] insulted the perfume. In protest, the manager, who was later revealed to be the Gym Leader Erika, had him banned from her store and by extension the greenhouse/[[Celadon Gym]].
[[Image:ErikaGloom.gif|right|thumb|Erika with her {{p|Gloom}}.]]
[[Jessie]] and [[James]] were sneaking into the gym trying to steal the perfume scents to sell them, but they were stamped with a red X and banned from the gym, too. Ash found them and untied them in exchange for help entering the gym.

Disguised a girl named [[Ashley]], Ash signed up as a student at the Gym. Erika was reading a fairy tale to some Grass-type Pokémon when he found and recognized her. Pikachu instantly recognized Ash and exposed him. Erika finally agreed to a battle for the Gym Badge. However, their match was interrupted when [[Team Rocket]] started a fire in the Gym as revenge for being thrown out of the gym.

Ash risked his life to run in and rescue Erika's beloved [[Erika's Gloom|Gloom]], who had once saved her from a wild {{p|Grimer}} when she was a little girl. Out of thanks, Erika awarded Ash with the Rainbow Badge.

She is voiced by 氷上恭子 ''Kyoko Hikami'' in the original Japanese version, by [[Leah Applebaum]] in the English dub, and by [[Letícia Quinto]] in the Brazilian dub.

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimorierikaoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Erika from ''Pokémon Red'' and ''Blue'']]
Erika's title is ''The Nature-Loving Princess''.

Erika is ladylike, and a teacher of flower-arranging. She is a quiet girl, but she's well-known in Celadon City.

Erika only collects Pokémon if she considers them attractive, though her definition of attractive seems to include varieties only a botanist could love. She also tends to doze off quite a bit, but will become inspired after a good match.

In addition to the Rainbow Badge, Erika gives out [[TM21]], {{m|Mega Drain}}, in [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red, Blue]], [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Green]], and [[Pokémon Yellow Version|Yellow]]. In [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Pokémon Gold, Silver]], [[Pokémon Crystal Version|Crystal]], and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]], she gives out [[TM19]], {{m|Giga Drain}}.

''"Hello. Lovely weather isn't it? It's so pleasant. ...Oh dear... I must have dozen off. Welcome. My name is Erika. I am the Leader of Celadon Gym. I teach the art of flower arranging. My Pokémon are of the grass-type. Oh, I'm sorry, I had no idea that you wished to challenge me. Very well, but I shall not lose."''

''"Oh! I concede defeat. You are remarkably strong. I must confer you the Rainbow Badge."''

====Pokémon Gold and Silver====
''"Hello... Lovely weather, isn't it? It's so pleasant... ...I'm afraid I may doze off... My name is Erika. I am the Leader of Celadon Gym. ...Oh? All the way from Johto, you say? How nice... Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't realize that you wished to challenge me. Very well, but I shall not lose."''

''"Oh! I concede defeat... You are remarkably strong... I shall give you Rainbow Badge..."''

==In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga==
[[Image:Erika.PNG|right|frame|Erika]]
In the ''[[Pokémon Special]]'' manga, Erika is an elegant young princess who gives lectures at universities and practices archery. She is allied with the "good" Gym Leaders of Kanto, and often assists [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] during crises.

She sent {{Special|Red}} out on a quest to capture an unusual {{p|Eevee}} that could change at will between its three elemental forms. Erika threatened to kill Eevee; however, it turned out that she was just testing Red's character.

==In the TCG==
In the [[TCG]], the card {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika|16}} allows each player to draw up to three cards. Another card, {{TCG ID|Gym Challenge|Erika's Kindness|103}}, demonstrates her kindness, depicting her as helping a {{p|Growlithe}} out of the rain. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika's Maids|109}} enables the player to trade two cards in a hand for two Pokémon in the deck, both with Erika in their names. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Charity|99}} is attached to a defending opponent Pokémon, and if that Pokémon is not knocked out, the card returns to the owner's hand; it allows the player to reduce the damage their attacks inflict. {{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Erika's Perfume|110}} allows the player to peek at the hand of the opponent and force them to summon any number of basic Pokémon from the hand to the bench.

As in the anime, she also appears to make fragrances, such as LeAF, depicted on Erika's perfume.

There is a [[Theme Deck]] named for Erika in the {{TCG|Gym Heroes}} expansion. It has two versions, [[Erika (TCG)|English]] and [[Erika (TCG - Japan)|Japanese]].

==Trivia==
* Erika's Japanese Leader title is {{tt|草花薫るやまとなでしこ|Yamato Nadeshiko Who Smells of Flowers}}. (See {{wp|Yamato Nadeshiko}}.)
* In the ''[[How I Became a Pokémon Card]]'' manga, Erika was childhood friends with [[Kaede]], who had an unfortunate reaction to a flower wreath Erika gave her at a party and ran off in shame. They met again later when Kaede, now a [[Team Rocket]] agent, invaded Erika's Gym. Erika was overjoyed to see her old friend and seemed to disregard any and all ill plots.
* Erika is the only Gym Leader who originated from the video games and kept her Japanese name.
