Upon talking to Clyde he tells you the mechanics of the maze, although he says there are only two dragons, where there are actually three.

In the two years between Black and White and Black 2 and White 2, the Opelucid Gym was remodeled to hide the DNA Splicers; signs of construction can still be seen around the Gym.

In Black 2 and White 2, the Gym features a whiteB2/blackW2 dragon vertically on a wall and a blackB2/whiteW2 dragon which the player can control to move to a certain position by stepping on the buttons appearing on its head. The Trainers of the Gym are on four different levels; the player must defeat at least one Trainer from each level to be able to proceed to the next level. On the topmost level, the player will meet Drayden. The DNA Splicers are hidden within the Gym; because of this, Team Plasma froze Opelucid City.

In the anime

Opelucid Gym was mentioned in Caution: Icy Battle Conditions! as the next Gym that Ash could go to, and he started on the road there. In Clash of the Connoisseurs!, it was mentioned by Nurse Joy that it was closed. Iris seemed to be very happy about this.

The Gym appeared in BW101.

Trivia

  • This is the first Gym to have two different Gym Leaders between the initial two versions, and the second Gym to have two different Gym Leaders in the same generation (the first being the eighth Gym of Hoenn, Sootopolis Gym).
  • Iris and Drayden's teams are identical except for their genders and the Ability of their Druddigon; Iris's Pokémon are all female and Drayden's are all male, while Iris's Druddigon has Sheer Force and Drayden's Druddigon has Rough Skin.
  • In Black 2 and White 2, the Veterans' Japanese names are all based on the word "dragon" in different languages: Ryūsei, Tatsumi, and Tatsurō are from the Japanese words ryū and tatsu, Drake is a term sometimes used to refer to European dragons, and Long is Chinese for dragon.
