Viridian City Gym

Edit
Share

The Viridian City Gym (トキワジム Tokiwa Gym) is the Gym of Viridian City led by Giovanni in Generation I. He specializes in Ground-type Pokémon. Later, after his rematch with Red, he is replaced with Blue/Green. Blue, unlike Giovanni, does not specialize in any type, though in Red, Blue, and Yellow, most of his Pokémon are Ground-type. Blue remains the Gym's leader in the later generations.

For Generation IV, this Gym was more challenging than it was back in Generation II. Not only have the slide tiles returned, but you had to challenge trainers as well.
