Appearance
Bea is a slender, fit young girl with tanned skin, both grey eyes and hair, and her hair cut into a bob. She wears a skintight black bodysuit (through which the imprint of her navel and abs can be seen) underneath her Gym Leader uniform that slightly resembles a modified karate gi. While training, she's always barefoot too, similarly to Maylene (another Fighting-type Gym Leader).

It is consisting of a cut-off white shirt with a black collar and some designs on it, including the Fighting-type and Gym Challenge symbols. The shirt also has a black bow that sits just below Bea's bust- when she is defeated in battle, she can be seen adjusting it.

To complete her uniform, Bea wears a pair of white shorts with orange and black details as well the number "193" on them. For accessories, Bea also wears a Dynamax Band, a black and orange glove and a black and orange matching hairband on her hair that slightly resembles rabbit ears. Bea is also wears grey kneepads and wooden sandals with laces resembling rope.

Personality
An expert of Galar karate, Bea is a determined fighter who rarely displays her emotions. She has an accurate sense of battle strategies and always remains calm even when facing a crisis. Bea has a strong personality and she hates to lose. She is also willing to drive herself to the extreme to improve herself and her Pokémon, but isn't above admitting she went too far if that happens.

Although Bea has a stern exterior, she is actually a sweet person when she smiles, indicating that she can be outwardly nice to trusted ones. A speculation on why she rarely smiles is that her strict parents had posed an emotional burden on her during her childhood. It's also been stated that she lost her smile due to her parents' strict training. Additionally, it is implied that very few people have seen Bea smile, one of which is the player character following their Gym Battle with her.

However, in spite of her calmness and tough looking exterior, Bea also has a huge sweet tooth with a soft spot for sweets. While she tried to keep her love of sweets a secret, her fans eventually found out, which resulted in her having more trouble trying to indulge herself.
