From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
The Mauville Gym (Japanese: キンセツジム Kinsetsu Gym) is the official Gym of Mauville City. It is based on Electric-type Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Wattson. Trainers who defeat him receive the Dynamo Badge.
In the games
Before entering the Mauville Gym, the player is forced to battle Wally in front of it.
Generation III
Mauville City Pokémon Gym
Leader: Wattson
The cheerfully electrifying man!
The Gym is filled with electrical barriers designed by Wattson himself. The barriers can be turned on and off by stepping onto switches across the floor. After the Gym Leader has been defeated, the barriers will be turned off permanently.
When defeated, Wattson will give the player the Dynamo Badge as well as TM34 (Shock Wave) as a reward.
Generation VI
Mauville City Pokémon Gym
Leader: Wattson
The cheerfully electrifying man!
The Gym's electrical barriers now come in blue and red varieties, with color-coded switches. Stepping on a switch shifts the direction the like-colored barriers project from vertical to horizontal and vice-versa. The Gym has also been divided into two different floors. Just like in Generation III, the barriers are turned off once the Gym Leader has been beaten.
When defeated, Wattson will give the player the Dynamo Badge as well as TM72 (Volt Switch) as a reward.

Items
In the anime
The Mauville Gym first appeared in Watt's with Wattson?. Ash and his friends reached the Gym, where the young Pokémon Trainer entered it in order to challenged Wattson for a Gym battle. However, the group quickly got lost inside the building, as the Gym had many traps, like falling into a whirlpool. After going through all the traps, Ash challenged Wattson and won flawlessly, stunning the Leader and making him question his abilities. Ash eventually realized that Pikachu had accidentally been supercharged by one of Wattson's Raikou robots. After realizing what happened, Wattson told Ash to keep the Badge and not to worry about challenging him again.
When Ash and the others returned to Mauville City in Manectric Charge, Ash decided to challenge Wattson again, this time with his newly captured Torkoal. This time, Wattson defeated Ash with his newly evolved Manectric. May also had a battle against Wattson's Gym assistant Watt here and won.
