Method : The fifth Pokemon gym is a maze of invisible walls. Also given to you are the Rainbow Badge, which makes any traded Pokemon up to Level 50 obey, and the ability to use Strength outside of battle.

Her Pokemon use the self-healing attack Giga Drain, which is also handed out via TM19 once the match is won. Method : Erika's gym requires Cut to navigate! You can also now use Fly outside of battle. Ground-type Pokemon like Sandshrew and Diglett cannot be affected by this move, or any other Electric-type move. Surge boasts a Raichu which can hit with the move Shock Wave, a fairly strong Electric-type attack that never misses. The second switch is always beside the first one, but if you find the wrong one the locks reset. Once inside, prepare to check each garbage can until you find both switches to open the electric door. Method : Before you can enter Vermilion City gym you must use Cut to clear the tree blocking the path. You can also now use Cut outside of battle. Misty uses the starfish Pokemon, Staryu and Starmie, which will try to smack you with confusion using their signature Water Pulse. You can avoid the first trainer but not the second. Method : Misty's gym is a straightforward path around a pool. It doesn't have much of a puzzle but there is a lone trainer who you must face before taking on Brock, the leader. Once you have all eight gym badges proof of your victory against the Leaderyou can take on Victory Road to go meet the Elite Four. Each gym focuses on a specific Pokemon type, giving you something to work with as you prepare your team for each challenge. Every fully-evolved Pokemon (Unown aside for obvious reasons) gets something from him.These gyms, as with all Pokemon games, are spread out over the Kanto region.
