The Fighting Dojo is a former Pokémon Gym and a place where Trainers of Template:Type2 Pokémon convene in Kanto. It is located in Saffron City.
In the Games
In the games, it is stated that the Fighting Dojo and the Saffron Gym once battled against each other to determine which one would be the Indigo League's sixth Pokémon Gym. Due to the type advantage that the Template:Type2s that were trained at the Saffron Gym had over the Fighting-types used by the Dojo, Saffron Gym easily won and became the official gym.
In the Generation I games and their Generation III remakes, the unofficial gym is fully open. In the building there are three Black Belt-students, with their master, the Karate Master, who in the remakes is named Koichi (Japanese: タケノリ Takenori). The reward for defeating him is to choose between Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan.
In the Generation II games, only one of the students is left and the Fighting Dojo is at that time, much like Safari Zone, temporary closed down. The Fighting Master, here named Kiyo (Japanese: ノブヒコ Nobuhiko), can be found training in Johto's Mt. Mortar. The reward for defeating him is a Tyrogue who can evolve into either one of the Pokémon he gave away in the other games, as well as Hitmontop.
In the anime
The Generation II Karate Master Kiyo appeared in the episode A Tyrogue Full of Trouble; however, here he doesn't seem to be related to the Fighting Dojo.
The first real appearance of the dojo was however in Pasta La Vista! with the slogan "The Strongest Pokémon at the Pokémon Dojo.". Master Hamm wanted that Kyle Hamm, his child, should take over the dojo. When Ash and Max got in, he ordered them to clean the floor. Later, Terry as well challenged the master. In the end, Kyle ended up running both the dojo and his Noodle restaurant, while the master decided to travel all around the world, selling noodles.
Trivia
- In the Super Smash Bros. stage Saffron City, a building that has some blurry text can be seen in the background. The text appears to begin with an F, meaning that the building may in fact be the Fighting Dojo.
