The Viridian Gym is the official [[gym]] of Viridian City.  It is based on {{type2|Ground}} {{obp|Pokémon|species}}.  The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Giovanni]], the head of [[Team Rocket]].  {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{Badge|Earth}}. Viridian Gym appears in all games set in the [[Kanto]] region. In [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, when the {{player}} makes their first encounter with the gym, it is locked because of the absence of the Gym Leader. With this acknowledged, the player journeys off onto other Gyms to challenge them. Once this has been accomplished and the player has collected the other seven [[Gym Badges]], the Viridian Gym reopens.

Inside the Gym, the floor uses the same transporting tiles as in the {{OBP|Rocket Hideout|Celadon City}}. The player must use these tiles to navigate through the Gym to reach Giovanni. In [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, Blue takes over the gym. In Generation II, the gym is completely remodeled and the tiles are now gone. In Generation IV, the tiles are put back up. The maze of tiles is roughly the same shape of the original Generation II gym. The colors of the Gym's exterior are based on the colors most associated with the type that the Gym specializes in. Viridian Gym, however, is both green and blue, likely referring to its Gym Leader's name.

In [[Generation I]], a Revive can be found, while a [[Macho Brace]] replaces it in [[Generation III]], making it the only gym with items in it. This is the only gym to be based on 3 different types throughout the games and anime and the only one to not have a type for a generation. In all generations aside from [[Generation III]], at least one Trainer in the Viridian Gym owned a {{p|Rhydon}}, while in [[Generation III]], all of Giovanni's Pokémon knew {{m|Earthquake}}.
