From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
The Veilstone Gym (Japanese: トバリジム Tobari Gym) is the official Gym of Veilstone City. It is based on Fighting-type Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Maylene. Trainers who defeat her receive the Cobble Badge.
The Veilstone Gym was the third Gym in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, but in Pokémon Platinum this was changed to the fourth Gym.
In the games
Veilstone City Pokémon Gym
Leader: Maylene
The Barefoot, Fighting Genius!
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl
The Veilstone Gym is a dojo comprised of several smaller rooms intersected with mobile walls. Trainers wait in the tiny cubicles. To get to Maylene, the walls must be shifted in and out of the cubicles so that the empty spaces in the walls line up with each other and a path is clear. Maylene's students are four brothers who call themselves the "Karate Quads" and insist they fight "for LOVE!" "for COURAGE!" "for HOPE!" and "for TEARS!"
Pokémon Platinum
In Pokémon Platinum, the player must push around punching bags in order to knock over piles of tires that are blocking the player's path. The Black Belts await the player in roped-off boxing arenas.
