From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Tulip (Japanese: リップ Lip) is the Gym Leader of Alfornada's Gym, known officially as the Alfornada Gym. She specializes in Psychic-type Pokémon.
In the core series games
Besides being a Gym Leader, Tulip works as a model and a makeup artist. As such, she focuses on beauty and appearance a lot. Her Pokémon help her out in applying makeup which seems magical. She has a very busy schedule due to working on several businesses.[1]
Tulip is childhood friends with Dendra and has done a collaboration with fellow Gym Leader Iono. She doesn't like her boss, Geeta, very much, due to the latter's "bewitching aura" overlapping with the former's style.
Tulip enlists Dendra to help her with her Gym test of ESP exercise by defeating her in a Pokémon battle, in which the stakes were that the loser would do whatever the winner wanted. The Gym test requires the player to express different emotions as Dendra and a Medicham demonstrate them. Dendra also says that Tulip has always been an overachiever.
In addition to the Gym Badge, Tulip gives out TM120 (Psychic) after defeating her.
In The Indigo Disk, Tulip can be invited to Blueberry Academy as a special coach.
