Biography
Season 6: Advanced
In addition to being a Gym Leader, Roxanne was also a teacher at the Pokémon Academy. Roxanne was searching for a Poliwag one of her students lost. Max found the lost Poliwag, pleasing Roxanne. Seeing her students were arguing, Roxanne settled the dispute and went with the heroes to the Trainer's School. She had one of the teachers give a tour of the Trainer's School to the heroes, where she worked as a teacher. Roxanne had Professor Oak give a lecture via video screen to one of the classes at the Academy. Since she had a lot of work in the Trainer's School, Roxanne had to postpone her battle with Ash. The heroes understood and stayed a while at the School, with Roxanne showing them the vault of Poké Balls. The following day, Roxanne asked of Brock and Ash to show their Pokémon to the students, who were glad to see new Pokémon. Once the class was over, Roxanne had Tommy and Max use a Pokémon to battle things out. When Team Rocket stole all the Poké Balls from the vault, used for the Academy's training classes, Roxanne permitted her students to battle the villains for a bit. In time, Roxanne sent Geodude to defeat Team Rocket, retrieve the Poké Balls, and send Team Rocket blasting off once more. After the fuss was over, Roxanne showed she wanted to get her students to become friends and learn from this valuable experience, a task in which she succeeded. Brock warned Ash Roxanne was a tough opponent, but Roxanne sensed Ash was ready for her Gym Battle.Cite error: Invalid <ref>

After that, Roxanne has her Gym Battle with Ash, who had prepared to face Roxanne by having his Pikachu learn Iron Tail, due to having remembered his previous battle in the Pewter City Gym with Brock back in Kanto. Despite losing his Treecko, who has the type advantage over Roxanne's Geodude, Ash is able to defeat her with Pikachu, then successfully defeat her stronger Pokémon, Nosepass, with Pikachu as well, winning his Stone Badge from Roxanne, who also learned a lot from their Gym Battle as well.

Geodude was first seen when it was used to blast away Team Rocket with a single Rollout attack. It was then used in the official gym battle with Ash and easily defeated Treecko with relative ease but ended up losing to Pikachu. | ||

Nosepass is the strongest and main Pokémon of Roxanne. It was used to battle against Pikachu. It attacked Pikachu quickly with a Rock Tomb and, surprisingly for a Rock-Type Pokémon, used a powerful Zap Cannon and Thunder Wave. It also used Sandstorm to hide itself from Pikachu and used its nose to attack Pikachu. It was soon defeated by Pikachu's Iron Tail, though. | ||
