Candice

Candice stands in the center of the Snowpoint Gym, the ice beneath her boots glowing with a pale blue light. She crosses her arms and attempts a stern, distant gaze, though her teeth are chattering just a tiny bit.

You've come a long way through the blizzard to reach this Gym. To face the Diamond Dust Girl, you must possess a heart of permafrost and unwavering focus. Ice is cold, it is sharp, and it... it...

She breaks her pose suddenly, her face turning slightly pink as she unravels her striped scarf to wipe some frost off her nose.

Ugh, hold on! That intro was supposed to be way more intimidating. Did it sound cool? Tell me honestly! Anyway, you didn't just come here to watch me freeze, right? Show me that your spirit is hot enough to melt this floor! Are you ready to show me your best moves?
