A bout G ardenia/N atane...
Gardenia is the leader of the Eterna/Hakutai City gym and she's absolutely crazy about grass-type Pokémon.
The name Gardenia comes from a genus of flowering trees as well as the flowers of those trees.
Natane means 'rapeseed'; the name comes from Arapaho origin and means "daughter."
Pokeani estimates that Gardenia is 20 years old. Her Japanese voice actress is Chieko Honda, and her English voice actress is Lara Starr Rigores.
So, why Gardenia? Well, it can't legitimately be argued that it's wrong to like any particular character. Ash, Misty, Dawn, Lorelei...they all have fan sites out there... Besides, she's so cute and sweet :-D

Interestingly enough, I think that the Oreburgh and Eterna Gyms are unique in the fact that they don't adopt the traditional camera angle.
