===Introducing: Homika===
===Character of the Day: Candice===
* '''Homika''' ('''ホミカ''') is one of the new [[Gym Leader]]s of the [[Unova]] region. She is set to appear in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}. She specializes in {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. She gives the {{badge|Toxic}} to Trainers who defeat her.  
* '''Candice''' (Japanese: '''スズナ''' ''Suzuna'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Snowpoint City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Snowpoint Gym]]. She hands out the {{badge|Icicle}} and [[TM72]] ({{m|Avalanche}}) to Trainers who defeat her. She specializes in {{type|Ice}} Pokémon.
* She is a {{wp|musician}} who plays the bass guitar, her band is called "The {{tt|Dogars|Koffing}}". Her Gym is a music club.
* She sometimes muses that she acts the opposite of the way people would expect an Ice-type Gym Leader to behave - warm and friendly instead of [[Pryce|cold and distant]]. She also seems to enjoy talking in third person.  
* Homika is set to appear in ''[[BW083|Rocking the Virbank Gym! (Part 1)]]'' and ''[[BW084|Rocking the Virbank Gym! (Part 2)]]''. In the episode, Ash will challenge Homika to a 6 on 3 battle with Homika using {{p|Koffing}}, {{p|Scolipede}} and {{p|Garbodor}}.
* Candice made her debut appearance in ''[[DP126|Classroom Training!]]'' where she was revealed to be a teacher in Snowpoint City's Trainers' School. She is also a childhood friend of [[Zoey]] and calls her by the nickname "Zo-Zo" (Japanese: '''ノゾチ''' ''Nozotchi'').  
* Her father is an actor who works in Pokèwood.
* {{Ash}} battled her in a 4 on 4 battle in ''[[DP127|Sliding Into Seventh!]]'' where he was able to defeat her and earn himself his seventh Badge.
* She is the first Poison type Gym Leader outside of [[Kanto]]. She is also the first Gym Leader to appear in the anime before her game debut.
* She first appeared in a [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga when she saved {{adv|Platinum}} after she was skiing on {{rt|217|Sinnoh}} and angered a pack of {{p|Graveler}}. Platinum then challenged her to a Gym battle and won.
* Candice has appeared on two [[Froslass GL (Rising Rivals 6)|TCG]] [[Mamoswine GL (Rising Rivals 27)|cards]] in the {{TCG|Rising Rivals}} set. She has yet to have her own card.
* Candice is the only Gym Leader from Sinnoh that Ash did not have a 3-on-3 battle with. Instead, it was a 4-on-4.
