In the anime
In the main series
The Pewter Gym was first seen in Showdown in Pewter City in the anime. It is a stone building apparently set apart from the rest of the city. Brock waits inside in the dark for challengers, sitting on a stone pedestal as he does in the games; however, unlike in the games, no other Trainers have been seen as part of the Gym aside from Brock's family. The battlefield is littered with jagged rocks and boulders, and a balcony along the edge above provides spectators a spot to watch Gym battles. Despite being a Rock-type Gym, the building has sprinklers for fire safety, which Ash uses to gain an advantage against Onix.
The Gym is an important part of Brock's family, and Brock, his brothers and sisters, and his parents live in a large house behind the Gym. Brock's father, Flint, was the Gym Leader before Brock, and Brock inherited the Gym as part of his family responsibilities when his parents left. While Brock was a strong, respected Gym Leader, he did not like being one, and only did it as an obligation to his family. When Flint came back, Brock returned the title of Gym Leader to him, and left to travel with Ash and pursue his own dream of becoming a Pokémon Breeder.
When Brock's mother, Lola, returned, the Gym was turned into a combination Water-type and Rock-type Gym, and the battlefield was redecorated, including the addition of a pool in the middle. However, Brock returned in A Family That Battles Together Stays Together! and was shocked to see how his mother has changed. Both he and his younger brother Forrest take pride in the Gym's strong reputation as a Rock-type Gym. He battled his mother to restore the Gym to being only Rock-type again.
It was subject to a second remodeling attempt in Grating Spaces. At that time, a storage room was seen where the Gym keeps many Poké Balls, presumably containing different Rock-type Pokémon. In its subsequent appearances, the Gym's name has been removed from the entrance.
While traveling with Ash, Brock kept Pokémon he owns but does not currently have on his party at the Gym. He has had his Steelix, Geodude, Crobat, Forretress, Ludicolo and Marshtomp at the Gym. Flint's Golem is also kept at the Gym, and Lola keeps her many Water-type Pokémon there.
Pewter Gym was featured in SS025, in which the Gym was going to be closed down after Forrest lost to Nurse Joy of the Pokémon Inspection Agency. After winning a battle against Brock and another battle with Forrest, Nurse Joy allowed the Gym to stay open, with Forrest as its official Gym Leader. The Gym is notably cleaner than in its previous appearance, with all paintings removed. In addition, the battlefield has more pointed rocks while the area around it is a blue shiny floor, possibly to reflect Lola's penchant for water. However, the Gym had a bad paint job and the Rock Pokémon nearly drowned in the pool, which per the Pokémon Inspection Agency's standards of cleanliness, safety, and coolness in Cerulean Blues, should have resulted in the Gym being shut down.

Used by Flint
Flint's Golem first appeared in A Family That Battles Together Stays Together! where it battled against Lola's Marill to win back the Pewter Gym from her. The type disadvantage and the problem that the battlefield was on water with only a few rocks sticking out gave Marill the advantage. Flint started with an Earthquake which made it hard for Marill to navigate, but was no match to Marill who used Surf making Golem sink and her Blastoise had to save it from drowning, Brock also had to help using a hair dryer to heat Golem up.
It was revealed that Golem used to be a Graveler; in a battle against Lola's Poliwag, the precision of her Poliwag's Hydro Pump made Flint fall in love with Lola. It was later seen with Blastoise, holding up the new sign made of rock which they broke. Golem appeared again in Grating Spaces! where it welcomed Brock home with Brock's Geodude, Steelix, and Crobat. Golem's only known move is Earthquake. | ||

Used by Lola
Lola's Marill was used against Flint's Golem in a battle for the title of Gym Leader. It was shaken up by Golem's Earthquake, but was able to use the waves of water to use Surf against it and win. It then helped Golem along with Blastoise to recover from drowning.
In Grating Spaces!, Team Rocket planned to capture Marill and the other Pokémon of Lola's but failed. In SS025, it, along with Brock's Sudowoodo, takes the role of Brock's youngest siblings' playmate. Marill's only known move is Surf. | ||

Lola's Mantine was used against Brock's Onix, in a battle to reclaim the Pewter Gym and allow it to still be a Rock-type gym, Onix drained the pool with Dig leaving Mantine stranded. It then flew in the air using BubbleBeam hurting Onix, but it used Bind and despite having a clear type advantage, Mantine ends up losing the battle.
In Grating Spaces!, Team Rocket planned to capture Mantine and the other Pokémon of Lola's but failed. Mantine's known moves are Bubble Beam and Confuse Ray*. | ||

Rhyperior is currently the only known Pokémon of Forrest that he did not borrow from Brock. He used it in a battle against Nurse Joy's Latias that, if he had lost, would have caused the Pewter Gym to be shut down. Rhyperior did a lot of damage to Latias with its Megahorn, but Latias used Recover and then fired an Ice Beam at Rhyperior. Rhyperior continued to use Megahorn, but Latias used multiple Steel Wing attacks and an Ice Beam until Rhyperior finally fainted.
Rhyperior became frozen by Latias's Ice Beam but Brock was able to help it recover. Nurse Joy was impressed by Forrest's skill, and as a result the Pewter Gym was not closed. Rhyperior's known moves are Megahorn, Rock Wrecker, Horn Drill and Dig. | ||

In Pokémon Origins
The Pewter City Gym was seen in the Pokémon Origins episode File 1 - Red, when Red went to challenge it on the suggestion of Brock, whom he didn't know being the Gym Leader until meeting him at the Gym. After battling Brock's Geodude with his Charmander for a while, Red was adviced by Brock to use a Pokémon with a better type matchup, prompting Red to switch to his Nidoran♂, whose super effective Double Kick was enough to defeat Geodude. Brock then switched to his Onix, which defeated Nidoran♂ with Bide, and then proceeded to defeat Red's Spearow, Rattata, and Metapod as well, but not before the Metapod had managed to land a String Shot on the Rock Snake Pokémon. Red was then forced to switch back to his Charmander. Thanks to Metapod's String Shot, Charmander was able to outspeed Onix and defeat with Scratch, winning the match for Red and earning him the Boulder Badge and TM34 (Bide).
Like all Gyms in Pokémon Origins, this Gym has scoreboards featuring each Trainer's current Pokémon and their remaining HP. The Gym's battlefield's design is based on that of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.

Trivia
- In the anime, the Pewter Gym has tied for having been run by the most Gym Leaders, with a total of four different Leaders: Brock, Flint, Lola, and Forrest. Viridian Gym has also had four Leaders in the anime: Giovanni, Jessie, James, and Agatha, although Jessie and James were a Double Battle. If Misty's sisters were counted as one Leader each, Cerulean Gym would also tie with them.
