===Trainer's Guide: Cerulean Gym===
===Spotlight on: Pokémon eggs===
* The Cerulean Gym (Japanese: '''ハナダジム''' ''Hanada Gym'') is a Gym located in the [[Kanto]] region.
* '''Pokémon eggs''' were introduced as a major franchise mechanic in [[Generation II]] along with the introduction of [[Pokémon breeding]].
* Specializing in {{type|Water}} Pokémon, the [[Gym Leader]] [[Misty]], gives the {{badge|Cascade}} to deserving {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Her sisters, [[The Sensational Sisters]], also initially gave the badge to Trainers in the anime.
* According to a girl in [[Solaceon Town]] near the [[Pokémon Day Care]], no one has ever seen a Pokémon lay an egg, and so it is not confirmed that this is how they appear. The [[Day-Care Couple|Day-Care Man]] always comments that he does not know how the egg got there when giving it to the player.
* Cerulean Gym features an indoor pool, which players may travel across using pathways or traverse using a Pokémon with {{m|Surf}}.
* {{p|Manaphy}} is the only Pokémon in the [[main series]] games to be depicted with a unique egg design—all other Pokémon use a generic egg sprite.
* Pokémon could be encountered and caught inside Cerulean Gym by [[fishing]] prior to {{game|Crystal}}, and it remains the only Gym where it is possible to do so.
* In the anime, as well as some spin-off games, eggs' shells are shown to have physical appearances of the contained Pokémon.
* The Cerulean Gym was featured in the TCG both as a [[Hanada City Gym (TCG)|Japanese Theme Deck]] and as a [[Cerulean City Gym (Gym Heroes 108)|card]].
* ''[[EP263|Address Unown]]'' reveals that Pokémon can see outside their eggs.
* In ''[[PS008|Suddenly Starmie]]'' of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, not only does {{adv|Red}} earn Cascade Badge, but he also trains with Misty in Cerulean Gym.
* In [[My Pokémon Ranch]], [[Hayley]] will trade her {{p|Mew}} for an egg after there are 999 Pokémon in the ranch.
* Possibly as a reference to [[Misty's Togetic|Misty's Togepi]], a {{p|Togepi}} brought in Cerulean Gym may begin to cry softly when talked to in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Chess BW Version]], a {{p|Victini}} egg acts as the equivalent of a king piece in chess. The egg can take three hits before it hatches, and Victini can take one before fainting. If this Victini faints, the controlling player loses.
