Mistralton Gym: Difference between revisions

===={{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}====

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Mistralton Gym appears to draw major inspiration from its game counterpart, though it does have a dirt battlefield. It has a cannon that shoots Skyla into the air and explodes into confetti whenever she makes her landing.

It first appeared in ''[[BW067|Cilan Takes Flight!]]'' when {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first arrived in Mistralton City and found out that Skyla accepts challenges outside the Gym and plays out the battles in her head, which she calls "Air Battles". Her grandfather {{an|Miles}} explained that Skyla had lost her motivation as a Gym Leader, and no longer accepted battles from Trainers. Infuriated, {{an|Cilan}} challenged her to a battle, which she accepted, feeling a battle between Gym Leaders would be more exciting. Cilan ended up losing the battle, and Ash then challenged her, and insisted that she battled in a proper one-on-one battle. She reluctantly accepted, and in ''[[BW068|An Amazing Aerial Battle!]]'', Ash managed to defeat her and earn himself the Jet Badge. Skyla then agreed to take part in battles instead of Air Battles from then on, much to Miles's relief.

===Pokémon used in Gym===

It is unknown what Pokémon {{an|Miles}} has used in his Gym battles.

|desc={{p|Swoobat}} is one of [[Skyla]]'s three Pokémon. It was first used in a Gym Battle against {{an|Cilan}}. Swoobat was able to easily defeat his {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} with {{m|Gust}}. However, it quickly fell to [[Cilan's Crustle]].  

|desc={{p|Unfezant}} is one of [[Skyla]]'s three Pokémon. He was first used in a Gym Battle against {{an|Cilan}}, where he quickly fell against his {{TP|Cilan|Crustle}}.

In ''[[BW068|An Amazing Aerial Battle!]]'', he was used in a Gym Battle against {{Ash}}, as the second Pokémon Skyla called upon against him. He battled against [[Ash's Tranquill]], though she was recalled for {{AP|Pikachu}}. After a tough fight, {{p|Pikachu}} triumphed over Unfezant with {{m|Electro Ball}}.

|desc={{p|Swanna}} is one of [[Skyla]]'s three Pokémon. It was first used in a Gym Battle against {{an|Cilan}}. It struggled a bit battling {{TP|Cilan|Stunfisk}} which it had a type disadvantage with and was also {{status|burn}}ed by its {{m|Scald}}. However, thanks to its {{m|Aqua Ring}}, it was able to overcome its burn and defeated Stunfisk.  

In ''[[BW068|An Amazing Aerial Battle!]]'', it was used in a Gym Battle against {{Ash}}. Similarly to Cilan's Stunfisk, who had a type advantage, {{AP|Pikachu}} fell to Swanna. [[Ash's Tranquill]] next battled against Swanna and won thanks to her evolving into {{p|Unfezant}} and learning the move {{m|Aerial Ace}}.}}

The Mistralton Gym appeared in ''[[PS494|Up in the Air]]'' and ''[[PS495|The Battle Within]]'', where {{adv|Black}} battled Skyla in a Gym battle. After being pushed down from the [[Celestial Tower]] by Skyla and carried into the Gym by her {{TP|Skyla|Swanna}}, Black was fired around the Gym by its cannons before finally landing into the one near Skyla. During the battle, Skyla told Black she would blast him straight back to [[Nuvema Town]] if he lost. Luckily for Black, he won the battle, but Skyla departed to [[Nacrene City]] with the other Gym Leaders without handing him the Badge. However, the cannon Black was in then fired him out of the Gym and onto the top floor of Celestial Tower. After Black rung the bell at the top of the tower, Skyla sent her Swanna down to him to give him a {{badge|Jet}} as a proof of his victory.
