In [[Generation II]], the Gym structure is very basic. It is very similar to [[Pewter Gym]] in layout, a pathway leading directly to the Gym Leader with two Trainers obscuring the way. The path is held on some sort of raised platform, with a seemingly bottomless pit left and right of the path. The path creates an "S" shape as it winds around toward the Gym Leader. At the tips of the "S" there are two Trainers that are both unavoidable. At the end stands Falkner, who will battle any challengers of the Gym. After Falkner is defeated, he will give the player the {{badge|Zephyr}}, which allows the use of {{m|Flash}} outside of battle, as well as {{TM|31|Mud-Slap}}.

A field based on the Gym also appears in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]'s Johto [[Gym Leader Castle]].

Unlike in Generation II, the Gym is inaccessible until the [[Sprout Tower]] is cleared. Trainers will start out on ground level. A wooden platform at the end that will lift Trainers up to the upper level where a structure similar to the one in Generation II awaits. The path creates an "S" shape as it winds around toward the Gym Leader. A Trainer waits at each end of the "S", but unlike in Generation II, both Trainers can be avoided by walking on the glass tiles that encircle the field. Falkner waits on a wooden platform in front of the windows at the back of the Gym. After Falkner is defeated, he will give the player the {{badge|Zephyr}}, which allows the use of {{m|Rock Smash}} outside of battle, as well as {{TM|51|Roost}}.

The Violet Gym made its only {{pkmn|anime}} appearance in ''[[EP131|Fighting Flyer with Fire]]''. The battlefield is located at the top of a tall building and lacks a roof so that {{t|Flying}} Pokémon can make full use of their abilities.

After saving {{AP|Pikachu}} from {{TRT}}, {{Ash}} challenged Falkner to a {{pkmn|battle}}. The battle got off to a bad start for Ash, but he improved when he managed to defeat Falkner's {{p|Hoothoot}} and {{p|Dodrio}} with Pikachu alone. However, the Gym Leader's {{p|Pidgeot}} proved to be too tough for Pikachu and ultimately defeated him. After switching to {{AP|Charizard}}, Ash was able to defeat Pidgeot and earn his first Johto League Badge, the Zephyr Badge.

Violet Gym was first mentioned in ''[[PS099|Sunkern Treasure]]'', where Falkner told {{adv|Gold}} that after {{adv|Walker|his father}}, the previous Violet Gym Leader, had gone missing, he had started training hard in order to pass the [[Pokémon Association]]'s test and become the new Gym Leader of Violet City. In ''[[PS105|Smeargle Smudge]]'', Falkner successfully passed the test and became an official Gym Leader.
