Battlefield

The Sootopolis Gym (Japanese: ルネジム Rune Gym) is the official Gym of Sootopolis City. It is based on Water-type Pokémon. The Gym Leader is JuanE, who was briefly replaced by his student WallaceRSORAS. Trainers who defeat them receive the Rain Badge.

In the games

In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, to reach the Gym Leader, Trainers must step on every ice tile to activate the stairways to the next level. If any tile is used twice, the player will fall to a lower floor, where the Gym Trainers are located. No matter where he or she falls, at least one Trainer must be challenged before the stairs can be returned to. The levels on the basement floor are separated with ice slides, allowing the player to only move downwards.

In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the second and third puzzles now also contain solid platforms which can be stepped onto multiple times without them breaking. Once a puzzle is solved and the player has entered the next level, the cracked tiles on the lower levels can be stepped onto without them breaking. The ice slides on the lower floor are replaced with stairs, allowing the player to freely move between the different levels of the floor. In addition, two Trainers can now be battled on the main floor.

When defeated, WallaceRSORAS/JuanE will give the player the Rain Badge as well as TM03 (Water Pulse)RSE/HM05 (Waterfall)ORAS as a reward.

In the anime

The Sootopolis Gym appeared in two episodes of the anime.

Ash and his friends first arrived at the Gym in The Great Eight Fate!. They met up with Juan, who was putting on a water show with all the Pokémon in his Gym.

After challenging Juan, Ash learned that the battle would be divided up into two parts. The first part was a Double Battle. Once both of Juan's Pokémon fainted, the battle would switch into one-on-one battles. Ash defeated Juan in Eight Ain't Enough! and earned his Rain Badge.

Interestingly, Juan did not use his in-game team in the anime, but rather Wallace's Ruby and Sapphire team.

Sootopolis Gym is also the home to Sebastian, the assistant at the Gym.

Trivia

  • Despite being a Water-type Gym, its puzzle resembles an Ice-type Gym.
  • It is one of the only two Gyms that have different Gym Leaders in the same generation depending on the version. The other Gym is Opelucid Gym.
  • It is also the only eighth Gym to not have any Ace Trainers.
  • There is a glitch in Pokémon Emerald on the bottom floor of the gym where the player can walk into the wall above the ladder.
  • In Generation VI, this is the first Gym where the player will be rewarded with an HM instead of a TM.
