Battlefield

The Mauville Gym (Japanese: キンセツジム Kinsetsu Gym) is the official Gym of Mauville City. It is based on Electric-type Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Wattson. Trainers who defeat him receive the Dynamo Badge.

In the games

Generation III

The Gym is filled with electrical barriers designed by Wattson himself. The barriers can be turned on and off by stepping onto switches across the floor. After the Gym Leader has been defeated, the barriers will be turned off permanently.

When defeated, Wattson will give the player the Dynamo Badge as well as TM34 (Shock Wave) as a reward.

Generation VI

The Gym's electrical barriers now come in blue and red varieties, with color-coded switches. Stepping on a switch shifts the direction the like-colored barriers project from vertical to horizontal and vice-versa. The Gym has also been divided into two different floors. Just like in Generation III, the barriers are turned off once the Gym Leader has been beaten.

When defeated, Wattson will give the player the Dynamo Badge as well as TM72 (Volt Switch) as a reward.

In the anime

The Mauville Gym has appeared in two episodes of the anime.

It first appeared in Watt's with Wattson?. Ash and his friends reached the Gym, where the young Pokémon Trainer challenged Wattson for a Gym battle. However, they were lost, as there were many traps, like falling into a whirlpool. After going through the traps, Ash challenged Wattson and won flawlessly, stunning the Leader and making him question his abilities. He finally realized that Pikachu had been supercharged by one of Wattson's Raikou robots. After realizing what happened, Wattson told Ash to keep the Badge and not to worry about challenging him again.

But when Ash and the others returned to Mauville in Manectric Charge, Ash decided to challenge Wattson again, this time with his newly-captured Torkoal. This time, Wattson defeated the Fire type with his Manectric.

In addition to Wattson, the Gym assistant Watt also makes his home at the Gym. He appeared to be interested in May, and gave her advice on the Pokémon Contest in Verdanturf Town.
