As the protagonist

Rosa is a young girl living in Aspertia City with her childhood friend Hugh. At the start of the game, she sets off with Hugh to collect her first Pokémon. They then go their separate ways and she starts her journey across the Unova region.

For all rental teams used by the player at Pokéstar Studios, see here.

As a non-playable character

If the player chooses Nate, Rosa will appear in game as an NPC, first met in Nimbasa City. She will join the player in a Multi Battle against Emmet and Ingo. Afterwards, she will give the player the Vs. Recorder.

Rosa will then appear as the player's partner in the Battle Subway when choosing to ride the Multi-Train. Two of the following Pokémon are picked from the corresponding list, depending on what the player wants her to base her team on. If the player chooses "A balance between the two," Rosa's Pokémon are chosen from either list.

Multi Battle partner

Snivy If the player chose Snivy:



Tepig If the player chose Tepig:



Oshawott If the player chose Oshawott:



Battle Subway Pokémon

This is a list of all the Pokémon used in the Multi Train and Super Multi Train battles. Each Pokémon has a non-Hidden Ability that, along with gender, is randomly selected. These Pokémon will always have the maximum 31 individual values across every stat and the full 510 effort values evenly distributed (rounding down) among two or three stats.

Quotes

Nimbasa City

  • Before battle
"I heard that in Gear Station you can have Pokémon battles in the subway! So I came here to test my skills, and, what do you know… the Subway Bosses were here! Isn't that amazing? I mean, they're the strongest Trainers in Gear Station! And they said they'd battle if it's two on two! This is an a-MAZ-ing opportunity! Would you PLEASE battle with me?"
Yes: "Thanks! Oh! The name's Rosa! Let's become the best partners ever and surpass the Subway Bosses! So I'll have you challenge the Subway Bosses with me, then!"
  • After battle
"They were so tough, even when they were holding back for us! That's the Subway Bosses for you! I want to get even stronger and battle the Subway Bosses when they're giving it their all! Thanks, <player>! This is a token of my appreciation! Please take it!"
"When you have the Vs. Recorder, you can record your battles with your friends or battles on the Battle Subway!"
"<Player>! I had a really great time battling with you! I hope we can battle together again sometime! See you!"

Battle Subway

  • At the Multi Train and Super Multi Train platforms
"It's been a while! It's me, Rosa. Do you remember me? It's your first time challenging the Multi Train, right? Well, you need a partner!" / "Hi, <Player>! Nice to see you again!"
  • Before boarding the Multi Train or Super Multi Train
"Are you here by yourself today? Why don't you team up with me, then? It'll be fun! What sort of Pokémon should I use?"
Focused on Attack: "OK. I'll focus on Attack! Let's show them we are the best pair!"
Focused on Defense: "OK. I'll focus on Defense! Let's show them we are the best pair!"
Focused on Balance: "OK. I'll focus on a balance between Attack and Defense. Let's show them we are the best pair!"
  • After losing/retiring a challenge
"That was really fun! Let's battle together again!"

In the side series

In Pokémon Masters

Rosa joins the player in the first chapter of Pokémon Masters's story with her partner Snivy. The player can obtain evolution crystals and evolve the Snivy into Servine and eventually Serperior. Upon that final evolution, her Serperior learns a new sync move called "Shoot for the Stars Leaf Storm" (which replaces the default "Grass Sync Beam" that the pre-evolutions use).

She was also part of the "Holiday 2019 event" in December 2019 where she wore an alternate holiday-themed outfit and had a Delibird as her partner.

Dex Entries

Rosa's dex entry in Pokemon Masters says "This high-spirited young lady likes to stand out and has a strong sense of justice. Her dream is to have many battles with Trainers all over the world.

"Dressed head to toe for warm hospitality during the holiday season, Rosa and Delibird deliver joy and cheer to all of their friends." is her Holiday 2019 entry.
