Revision as of 15:49, 24 April 2013
The Vermilion Gym (Japanese: クチバジム Kuchiba Gym) is the official Gym of Vermilion City. It is based on Electric-type Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Lt. Surge. Trainers who defeat him receive the Thunder Badge.
In the games
Vermilion City Pokémon Gym
Leader: LT. SURGE
"The Lightning American"
Vermilion Gym appears in all games set in the Kanto region, appearing much the same in each: the main room is filled with 15 trash cans, and Trainers are scattered about this room. Beyond this room is another, guarded by electric doors in Generation I, and an electric fence in Generation III and Generation IV. The only way to get in the final room, where Lt. Surge is located, was to find two switches underneath the trash cans. If the first switch was found, but the player incorrectly guessed the second one, the traps would reset. The second switch was located near the first. In Generation II, these traps are not turned on.
A field based on the Gym also appears in Pokémon Stadium's Gym Leader Castle.

Items
In the anime
Vermilion Gym's only anime appearance came in Electric Shock Showdown. Its appearance is similar to a warehouse with lightning bolts painted on it, and the arena inside is a dimly-lit boxing ring. The battles are one on one. One significant difference is that Lt. Surge was shown to have junior Trainers that are both male and female wearing military-style uniforms. In the games his junior Trainers are all male, and none of them wear military-style uniforms.
Ash challenged Lt. Surge to a battle, hoping for his third Badge. However, Surge just laughed when he saw Ash's Pikachu, claiming it could never beat his Raichu. Pikachu decided to prove Surge wrong, and went ahead battling it. However, its evolved form proved much more powerful, as it easily defeated Pikachu.
After some training, Ash and Pikachu returned to the Gym. Surge once again felt that the battle was hopeless. What he didn't know was that in between the battles, Ash had taught Pikachu how to use Quick Attack and Agility. This gave Pikachu the advantage, and the victory.
Surge gave Ash his Badge, and conceded that Ash knew what he was doing.
In the TCG
The Vermilion Gym was featured in the TCG as both a Japan-exclusive Theme Deck and as a card. The following is a list of cards named Vermilion City Gym.
Trivia
- In HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Gym guide tells the player that the Gym's traps were temporarily out of order, but were recently repaired. This is a cross-generational reference to Gold, Silver, and Crystal, where this was true.
