Let's Dub: Pokémon Scarlet (VA Casting!)
brokeclem for Tulip
Tulip is one of the Gym Leaders of Paldea, specializing in Psychic-types. She lives in Alfornada and runs its Gym, as well as being a model and a makeup artist. Tulip values beauty and physical appearance in herself and in her Pokémon above all else. She is also extremely in tune with her own spirituality, priding herself on keeping her aura positive. Tulip's opinion on others is often based on the aura she sees from them, with an example being her boss, Geeta, who has a "bewitching aura" that Tulip isn't fond of.

Your interpretation can vary, though, and does not need to match perfectly! We are not looking for an impression, but we wish to give a reference as part of the audition material.

"Hello there. I'm Tulip, the Gym Leader here. Though I must tell you that being a makeup artist is my main line of work. (pause) Appearance is equally important for both people and Pokémon. Makeup is like magic. Anyone can use it to change their appearance. Allow me to put my skills to use to make your cute little Pokémon even more beautiful!"
"I suppose you're right. Okay, let's keep things moving here on my end. Let's keep the tag line simple - "Naturally Beautiful". And order the new eye-shadow color too, would you? Thanks, you're a doll. Gotta run now. Chat with you later."
"I lost the battle? And your beauty rivals even my own? I can't believe it. You are quite splendid. Yes, truly amazing! Perhaps I should take you under my wing before you make your big break elsewhere..."
