Azalea Gym cannot be challenged when the {{player}} first arrives in Azalea Town, as a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} is blocking the entrance. He doesn't leave until [[Team Rocket]] has been defeated at the [[Slowpoke Well]]. | |||
In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the Azalea Gym is a giant forest maze, with Trainers such as {{tc|Twins}} and {{tc|Bug Catcher}}s scattered around it, ready to challenge the player on sight. Bugsy is located in the middle of the maze, where he can be challenged to earn the {{Badge|Hive}}. | |||
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, many aesthetic changes have been made to the Azalea Gym, including a new feature that lets the player ride on {{p|Spinarak}}-shaped karts that travel across different areas of the Gym. The player must travel on the correct spider to advance through the Gym. If the player gets on the wrong spider, however, they will travel to a different area where they must battle a Trainer. The spider will always take a turn whenever possible, allowing the player to change its path by obstructing or opening possible paths by interacting with various levers around the Gym. | |||

The Azalea Gym appeared in ''[[EP144|Gettin' the Bugs Out]]''. The Gym resembles an indoor forest, with trees and grass growing everywhere. Bugsy lets all of his Pokémon roam free in the Gym, much to {{an|Misty}}'s chagrin. | |||
{{Ash}} felt confident that his {{AP|Cyndaquil}} would be able to easily defeat Bugsy and his Pokémon, but Cyndaquil initially had trouble using its {{type|Fire}} attacks, forcing Ash to [[recall]] it and instead use his {{AP|Chikorita}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}. After Ash defeated Bugsy's {{p|Spinarak}} and {{p|Metapod}}, Bugsy sent out his strongest Pokémon, {{TP|Bugsy|Scyther}}, which easily took out Pikachu, leaving Ash with only Cyndaquil. Even though Scyther was able to protect itself from Cyndaquil's {{m|Flamethrower}} with {{m|Swords Dance}}, Ash had Cyndaquil fire a Flamethrower from the above, getting past Scyther's defense and defeating it, thus earning Ash the {{badge|Hive}}. | |||

|desc={{p|Spinarak}} is the first Pokémon Bugsy used in his match against {{Ash}}, saying that it's one of his strongest Pokémon in his arsenal. It battled against {{AP|Cyndaquil}} and almost won with its String Shot and Poison Sting attacks, since Cyndaquil couldn't get its flame started. Eventually, Ash recalled Cyndaquil and sent out {{AP|Chikorita}} instead, despite the type disadvantage. Spinarak and Chikorita kept dodging each other's attacks, until Ash told Chikorita to use {{m|Sweet Scent}}, enabling it to {{m|Tackle}} Spinarak and win the round. | |||
Spinarak's known moves are {{m|String Shot}} and {{m|Poison Sting}}.}} | |||

Metapod used Harden several times to resist Chikorita's attacks, and then surprised Ash by being able to jump and tackle Chikorita. Ash decided to use {{AP|Pikachu}}, and after dodging many more attacks, Pikachu managed to attack Metapod with {{m|Thunderbolt}} and win. | |||
Metapod's known moves are {{m|Harden}} and {{m|Tackle}}.}} | |||

|desc=The final and strongest of Bugsy's Pokémon was {{p|Scyther}}. It first battled [[Ash's Pikachu]], which it easily defeated with a powerful combination of Slash and Fury Cutter attacks after dodging Pikachu's Thunderbolt with Double Team. | |||
Scyther proved to be an exceptional fighter as it can hold its own against {{type|Fire}}s by using Swords Dance to counter fire attacks. Using this technique, it almost defeated [[Ash's Cyndaquil]] by deflecting all of its fire attacks. Thanks to Ash's strategy though, Cyndaquil gained the upper hand. Instead of attacking horizontally, it jumped above Scyther and used {{m|Flamethrower}}. Scyther was unable to defend itself from the attack and was knocked out of the battle, allowing Ash to earn the Hive Badge.}} | |||

===Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys=== | |||
Azalea Gym appeared in ''[[GB06|Get up Again, Bayleef]]'', where {{GnB|Gold}} challenged Bugsy to a one-on-one Gym battle. Bugsy chose to use his {{TP|Bugsy|Scyther}}, while Gold, much to Bugsy's surprise, decided to use {{TP|Gold|Bayleef}}. Being at a type disadvantage, Bayleef was initially on the defensive, but eventually Scyther's attacks overpowered Bayleef's {{m|Reflect}}, fatally wounding the Leaf Pokémon. Despite the fact that his Pokémon was close to dying, Gold refused to give up, wanting to restore Bayleef's self-confidence after its abandonment by {{GnB|Black}}. This eventually worked, and just as Scyther was about to finish Bayleef off, it used {{m|Synthesis}} to heal itself and then slammed Scyther down to the ground with {{m|Vine Whip}}, defeating it and ending the battle. Bugsy then handed Gold a {{badge|Hive}} as a proof of his victory. | |||
===Pokémon Pocket Monsters=== | |||
Azalea Gym first made an appearance in ''[[PM079|The Hardest Bug Pokémon Wins?!]]'', where {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} entered the Gym to challenge Bugsy. With {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}'s gag moves, Red was able to defeat Bugsy and earn himself the Hive Badge. Afterwards, Bugsy also gave him four [[Poké Ball]]s, with an onion hidden inside one of them, much to Red and his Pokémon's disgust. | |||
The Gym reappeared in [[PMHGSS05]], where Red challenged Bugsy to a [[rematch]]. Once again, he emerged victorious, this time defeating Bugsy's Scyther with his {{TP|Red|Tyrogue}}. | |||

Azalea Gym cannot be challenged when the player first arrives in Azalea Town, as a Team Rocket Grunt is blocking the entrance. He doesn't leave until Team Rocket has been defeated at the Slowpoke Well.
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the Azalea Gym is a giant forest maze, with Trainers such as Twins and Bug Catchers scattered around it, ready to challenge the player on sight. Bugsy is located in the middle of the maze, where he can be challenged to earn the Hive Badge.
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, many aesthetic changes have been made to the Azalea Gym, including a new feature that lets the player ride on Spinarak-shaped karts that travel across different areas of the Gym. The player must travel on the correct spider to advance through the Gym. If the player gets on the wrong spider, however, they will travel to a different area where they must battle a Trainer. The spider will always take a turn whenever possible, allowing the player to change its path by obstructing or opening possible paths by interacting with various levers around the Gym.

The Azalea Gym appeared in Gettin' the Bugs Out. The Gym resembles an indoor forest, with trees and grass growing everywhere. Bugsy lets all of his Pokémon roam free in the Gym, much to Misty's chagrin.
Ash felt confident that his Cyndaquil would be able to easily defeat Bugsy and his Pokémon, but Cyndaquil initially had trouble using its Fire-type attacks, forcing Ash to recall it and instead use his Chikorita and Pikachu. After Ash defeated Bugsy's Spinarak and Metapod, Bugsy sent out his strongest Pokémon, Scyther, which easily took out Pikachu, leaving Ash with only Cyndaquil. Even though Scyther was able to protect itself from Cyndaquil's Flamethrower with Swords Dance, Ash had Cyndaquil fire a Flamethrower from the above, getting past Scyther's defense and defeating it, thus earning Ash the Hive Badge.

Spinarak is the first Pokémon Bugsy used in his match against Ash, saying that it's one of his strongest Pokémon in his arsenal. It battled against Cyndaquil and almost won with its String Shot and Poison Sting attacks, since Cyndaquil couldn't get its flame started. Eventually, Ash recalled Cyndaquil and sent out Chikorita instead, despite the type disadvantage. Spinarak and Chikorita kept dodging each other's attacks, until Ash told Chikorita to use Sweet Scent, enabling it to Tackle Spinarak and win the round.
Spinarak's known moves are String Shot and Poison Sting.

Bugsy's second choice for his battle with Ash was Metapod. Metapod used Harden several times to resist Chikorita's attacks, and then surprised Ash by being able to jump and tackle Chikorita. Ash decided to use Pikachu, and after dodging many more attacks, Pikachu managed to attack Metapod with Thunderbolt and win.

- Main article: Bugsy's Scyther
The final and strongest of Bugsy's Pokémon was Scyther. It first battled Ash's Pikachu, which it easily defeated with a powerful combination of Slash and Fury Cutter attacks after dodging Pikachu's Thunderbolt with Double Team.
Scyther proved to be an exceptional fighter as it can hold its own against Fire-types by using Swords Dance to counter fire attacks. Using this technique, it almost defeated Ash's Cyndaquil by deflecting all of its fire attacks. Thanks to Ash's strategy though, Cyndaquil gained the upper hand. Instead of attacking horizontally, it jumped above Scyther and used Flamethrower. Scyther was unable to defend itself from the attack and was knocked out of the battle, allowing Ash to earn the Hive Badge.
In the manga
Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys
Azalea Gym appeared in Get up Again, Bayleef, where Gold challenged Bugsy to a one-on-one Gym battle. Bugsy chose to use his Scyther, while Gold, much to Bugsy's surprise, decided to use Bayleef. Being at a type disadvantage, Bayleef was initially on the defensive, but eventually Scyther's attacks overpowered Bayleef's Reflect, fatally wounding the Leaf Pokémon. Despite the fact that his Pokémon was close to dying, Gold refused to give up, wanting to restore Bayleef's self-confidence after its abandonment by Black. This eventually worked, and just as Scyther was about to finish Bayleef off, it used Synthesis to heal itself and then slammed Scyther down to the ground with Vine Whip, defeating it and ending the battle. Bugsy then handed Gold a Hive Badge as a proof of his victory.
Pokémon Pocket Monsters
Azalea Gym first made an appearance in The Hardest Bug Pokémon Wins?!, where Red entered the Gym to challenge Bugsy. With Clefairy's gag moves, Red was able to defeat Bugsy and earn himself the Hive Badge. Afterwards, Bugsy also gave him four Poké Balls, with an onion hidden inside one of them, much to Red and his Pokémon's disgust.
The Gym reappeared in PMHGSS05, where Red challenged Bugsy to a rematch. Once again, he emerged victorious, this time defeating Bugsy's Scyther with his Tyrogue.
Trivia
- Min&Lyn have an illegal Nidorina in Pokémon Stadium 2: Charm is an Egg Move, while Body Slam is a Generation I TM.
