Battlefield

The Sootopolis Gym (Japanese: ルネジム Rune Gym) is the official Gym of Sootopolis City. It is based on Water-type Pokémon. The Gym Leaders are WallaceRS and, later, JuanE. Trainers who defeat them receive the Rain Badge.

In the games

To reach the Gym Leader, Trainers must step on every ice tile to activate the stairways. If any tile is used twice, the player will fall to a lower level, where the Gym Trainers are located. No matter where he or she falls, at least one Trainer must be challenged before the stairs can be returned to.

When defeated, WallaceRS or JuanE will give the player the Rain Badge as well as TM03 (Water Pulse) as a reward.

In the anime

The Sootopolis Gym appeared in two episodes of the anime.

Ash and his friends first arrived at the Gym in The Great Eight Fate!. They met up with Juan, who was putting on a water show with all the Pokémon in his Gym.

After challenging Juan, Ash learned that the battle would be divided up into two parts. The first part was a Double Battle. Once both of Juan's Pokémon fainted, the battle would switch into one-on-one battles. Ash defeated Juan in Eight Ain't Enough! and earned his Rain Badge.

Interestingly, Juan did not use his in-game team in the anime, but rather Wallace's Ruby and Sapphire team.

Sootopolis Gym is also the home to Sebastian, the assistant at the Gym.

Trivia

  • Despite being a Water-type Gym, its puzzle resembles an Ice-type Gym.
  • It is one of the only two Gyms that have different Gym Leaders in the same generation depending on the version. The other Gym is Opelucid Gym.
  • It is also the only eighth Gym to not have any Ace Trainers.
