In the games
Sunyshore City Pokémon Gym
Leader: Volkner
The Shining, Shocking Star
The Sunyshore Gym is a three room Gym. Volkner is said to have designed it out of boredom. The main floor is made up of gigantic gears and clockwork suspending platforms operated by buttons. To get through, Trainers need to rotate the platforms in a correct order to create a path. To follow the path however, the player has to battle various Trainers in the Gym. The Gym has exposed dynamos that use up a large amount of electrical power, prompting the city to renovate the pathways into solar energy collectors.

Raichu ♂
|
Raichu is Volkner's very first Pokémon. It first appears in Flint Sparks the Fire! where it reunited with Flint and in the next episode. Raichu has been shown to be outside of its Poké Ball most of the time.
Volkner first received his Raichu as a Pikachu when he was young. It battled with Flint's Chimchar and lost. However, in their rematch, it defeated Chimchar with Iron Tail. Since then, Flint and Volkner became friends/rivals. Later, Pikachu was battling the Proprietor's Houndoom, he was a Pokémon Poacher at the time. Houndoom dealt some damage to Chimchar and Pikachu but Chimchar wasn't able to continue, leaving Pikachu to do it on its own. Volkner was very determined to battle the proprietor. After a long battle, the proprietor ended up defeated and became friends with Volkner and Flint.
Pikachu evolved into a Raichu sometime when Volkner was growing up and took the job as becoming the Gym Leader. Raichu was very strong as it defeated several Pokémon such as a Trainer's Weavile and Mothim over time. However, Volkner did not select Raichu in either of his matches against Ash.
Raichu also appeared alongside Volkner during the credits of Zoroark: Master of Illusions.
Raichu's known moves are Iron Tail, Thunderbolt, Volt Tackle, and Thunder.

Luxray ♂

Volkner's Luxray appeared for the first time in The Fleeing Tower of Sunyshore!, where he battled Ash's Grotle during Ash's Gym challenge. However, the battle was called off due to Team Rocket terrorizing the city.
During the rematch, Luxray first battled with Pikachu, and won after taking hits from several Iron Tails. Ash next used Infernape, which got badly injured during the battle. Due to this, its Ability Blaze got activated. However, this time Infernape was able to control its Ability, and with the powers gained through it, the Flame Pokémon quickly defeated Luxray, serving the final blow with a devastating Flame Wheel, earning Ash the Beacon Badge. It was seen in a flashback in League Unleashed!.
Luxray's known moves are Spark, Thunderbolt, Shock Wave, Thunder Fang, Double Team, and Iron Tail.

After this, Pikachu was able to finish Electivire with a well-aimed Iron Tail.
