Drew's Roselia

One of May's contest rivals, Drew, owns a Roselia that seems to be his signature Pokémon. It is very elegant and is highly trained in contest combinations. It later evolved into Roserade while Drew was traveling in Johto.

Trivia

Design origin

Roselia is based on two roses. Although since before Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire's release, scientists were and are still working on making the Blue Girl Rose actually blue. In fact, some roses are actually blue, but they are genetically altered.

Etymology

Roselia's name could have originated from the two words, "Rose" and "Azalea". The azaleas could have come from the fact that some azaleas are blue, referring to the left rose.
