The [[Celadon Gym]] guide is not seen in his Gym, and appears instead at the [[Rocket Game Corner]], where he plays the [[slot machine]]s. Similarly, the [[Cianwood Gym]] guide is found in the [[Cianwood City|city]]'s [[Pokémon Center]] instead of the Gym. The [[Petalburg Gym]] guide will vanish after the {{player}} has defeated [[Norman]], and, in [[Generation II]] only, the [[Cinnabar Gym]] guide will arrive after [[Blaine]] has been defeated. | ||
