In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the player can walk across the ice diagonally instead of just straight. The second and third puzzles now also contain solid platforms which can be stepped onto multiple times without them breaking. Once a puzzle is solved from a position that allows direct access to the stairs, the cracked tiles on the solved puzzle can be stepped onto without them breaking. The ice slides on the lower floor are replaced with stairs, allowing the player to freely move between the different levels of the floor. In addition, two Trainers can now be battled on the main floor.

[[File:Sootopolis Gym{{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 2}}|0=|1=_second}} Battlefield.png|thumb|250px|Sootopolis Gym's battlefield in the anime]]

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the Sootopolis Gym battle is fought in two segments. The first segment is a [[Double Battle]] fought on a water battlefield with floating platforms. Once both of the [[Gym Leader]]'s Pokémon have been defeated, the Trainers switch podiums, the battlefield is changed into one that's a mixture of water and land, and the rest of the battle is fought as a Single Battle.

The Sootopolis Gym debuted in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate!]]'', when {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first arrived there with [[Juan]]. After arrival, Ash immediately began his Gym battle with Juan. The battle concluded in ''[[AG111|Eight Ain't Enough!]]'' in Ash's victory, earning him his {{badge|Rain}}.

In ''[[DP075|Our Cup Runneth Over!]]'', [[Wallace]] was revealed to have been the Leader of the Sootopolis Gym before becoming the [[Hoenn League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}. In ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', {{an|Steven Stone|Steven}} was revealed to have become the reigning Champion of [[Hoenn]]. In ''[[JN105|Reuniting for the First Time!]]'', Wallace, as the Sootopolis Gym Leader, challenged Ash to an unofficial battle in [[Lilycove City]] and lost, rewarding him with a second Rain Badge.

Sootopolis Gym is also the home to {{ho|Sebastian}}, the Gym assistant, who acts as a [[Battle judge|referee]] in Juan's matches.

===Pokémon used in the Gym===

 

====Used by Juan====

|vajp=Shin-ichiro Miki

In the second round of his battle with Ash, Juan chose {{p|Luvdisc}} against {{AP|Grovyle}}. Luvdisc started out with Water Pulse, but Grovyle dodged in time and countered with {{m|Leaf Blade}}. Luvdisc, however, was fast enough to dodge that attack and use Sweet Kiss, confusing Grovyle. Grovyle hit itself in confusion, and Luvdisc finished it off with Water Gun, which resulted in a loss for Grovyle despite the type advantage. Ash switched back to Corphish. The two Pokémon kept dodging each other's attacks until Luvdisc dived underwater and Ash ordered Corphish to hit the water with {{m|Crabhammer}}. Corphish's attack, however, sprayed the battlefield with water, simulating heavy rain, which activated Luvdisc's Ability, Swift Swim, allowing it to move even faster than before. Eventually, though, Corphish managed to hit Luvdisc with another {{m|Crabhammer}}, taking it out of the battle.

|vajp=Shin-ichiro Miki

|desc={{p|Milotic}} first appeared in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate]]'', where it was used in a water exhibition. It also won in a battle against {{TRT}}. Milotic is Juan's strongest and most experienced Pokémon, having helped Juan in his career as a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} by winning many [[Pokémon Contest]]s years ago. With the help of Milotic, Juan was able to win the [[Grand Festival]], earning the [[Ribbon Cup]] and the title of [[Top Coordinator]]. Nowadays, Milotic uses all of its experience against challengers who come to the Sootopolis Gym.

Juan used Milotic as his final Pokémon in the Gym battle against {{Ash}}. With its elegant grace and power, Milotic was able to gain the upper hand against Ash. It defeated Ash's Swellow with Hydro Pump and Twister, then put up a good fight against Pikachu thanks to its ability to Recover from Electric attacks. It was also able to draw in Pikachu's {{m|Thunder}} with Iron Tail. However, Pikachu pulled Milotic below the water and used Thunder to defeat it, thus earning Ash the {{Badge|Rain}}.

* Despite being a {{type|Water}} [[Gym]], this Gym's puzzle resembles an {{type|Ice}} Gym.

* This is one of the only four Gyms that have different [[Gym Leader]]s in the same [[generation]] depending on the version. The other Gyms are the [[Opelucid Gym]] in [[Unova]] ({{2v2|Black|White}} only) and the [[Stow-on-Side Stadium|Stow-on-Side]] and [[Circhester Stadium]]s in [[Galar]].

* There is a [[glitch]] in {{game|Emerald}} on the bottom floor of the Gym where the {{player}} can walk into the wall above the ladder.

* Due to [[Wallace]] giving {{HM|05|Waterfall}} in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], this is the only Gym in which the player is ever rewarded with an [[HM]] rather than a [[TM]].

* This is the only Gym in [[Hoenn]] where the [[Gym Leader]] ever uses a {{type|Dark}} Pokémon or a {{type|Fairy}} move.
