Roxanne appears at the Rustboro City Gym before [[Sapphire Birch|Sapphire]], who is surprised that the Gym Leader is conducting a test. She then hands a test paper to Sapphire, who begrudgingly is forced to take the examination. Roxanne informs Sapphire that she cannot face all of the Trainers who want to battle her, so she holds this examination to find the best Trainer to fight against. Later, Roxanne is shocked when Sapphire scores a perfect 100 in the test, asking whether she is related to [[Professor Birch]]. Sapphire confirms this, to which Roxanne accepts her Gym leader challenge. Roxanne outlines the rules for their battle, as the two Trainers release their Pokémon. When Sapphire's [[Aron]] attacks Roxanne's [[Nosepass]] with [[Metal Claw]], it blocks with [[Harden]]. Realising that she cannot win with Rono, Sapphire attempts to switch her Pokémon out, to which Roxanne outlines that her Nosepass' ability prevents the opposing Trainer from withdrawing their Pokémon.
