Continuing her Gym Challenge, Marnie eventually runs into the player character again outside of Spikemuth, which is being blocked off by Team Yell. At this point, Marnie is on friendly terms with the player character, so she shows them a secret entrance into the town after she is defeated in battle once again. She helps the player character advance, and in a rare display of emotion, she explosively berates some Team Yell Grunts for obstructing the Gym Challenge. Later, after Piers (Marnie's brother and the seventh Gym Leader) is defeated, it becomes Marnie's turn to fight him. Although a caring sister, Marnie scolds Piers for suggesting that she should be the new Gym Leader and states that she has her ambitions set on the championship instead. However, when the player character crushes her dream by beating her in the semifinals of the Champion Cup, Marnie gives in and replaces Piers as the newest Gym Leader of Spikemuth.
Later, the player character can barge in on Marnie
attempting to train herself to smile for her fans, after which she gets
shocked and runs off in embarrassment.
Contrary to her tough-looking appearance, Marnie is a sweet, slightly shy girl that normally hides her soft side and emotions behind a veneer of calm. Likewise, she is normally a calculated and composed strategist who mostly hides her competitiveness in battle, but will still compete fairly with sportsmanship. She is sometimes annoyed by her wild fans, but as long as they do not bother others, she actually appreciates their support.
Although she is generally emotionless on the surface, Marnie can stay angry for a long period if her limits have been tested. She also has a difficult time expressing happiness.
However, since Morpeko is Marnie's partner and best friend, she sometimes finds herself being manipulated by its mood swings.
