This gym specializes in {{type2|Electric}}. {{type2|Ground}} Pokemon are the most advantageous -- being immune to Electic-type moves and can deal super-effective damage. {{type2|Grass}} Pokemon can also resist Electric-type moves. However, the trainers, as well as Volkner, use teams that have Pokemon in different types, so other than Pokemon with Ground-type moves (or a Ground-type Pokemon), you should also bring Pokemon with {{type2|Dark}}/{{type2|Bug}}/{{type2|Ghost}}, {{type2|Fighting}}, {{type2|Flying}} and Electric-type/Grass-type moves to counter Pokemon in different types. | This gym specializes in {{type2|Electric}}. {{type2|Ground}} Pokemon are the most advantageous -- being immune to Electic-type moves and can deal super-effective damage. {{type2|Grass}} Pokemon can also resist Electric-type moves.

There are 3 rooms in this gym. There are many gears that have big buttons. Step on those big buttons and the gears will turn. There are 3 colours of buttons: green, blue and red. A blue button turns the gear you are stepping on clockwise for 90 degrees, while a green button turns the gear anticlockwise for 90 degrees. The other gears will also be affected and turn. | There are 3 rooms in this gym. There are many gears that have big buttons. Step on those big buttons and the gears will turn.

It's heard that the "gear challenges" are designed by Leader Volkner out of boredom. | ||
Turn the gears and fight the trainers along to find your way to the next room or Leader Volkner. | Turn the gears and fight the trainers along to find your way to the next room or Leader Volkner. | ||

A Ground-type move like {{m|Earthquake}} will finish off his {{p|Raichu}} (don't worry about its attacks because it doesn't have its evolutionary line's signature move {{m|Volt Tackle}}, or something deals high damage like {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but be wary if your Ground-type Pokemon is partly Ground-type, due to its {{m|Brick Break}}). | A Ground-type move like {{m|Earthquake}} will finish off his {{p|Raichu}} (don't worry about its attacks because it doesn't have its evolutionary line's signature move {{m|Volt Tackle}}, or something deals high damage like {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but be wary if your Ground-type Pokemon is partly Ground-type, due to its {{m|Brick Break}}). | ||
{{p|Ambipom}} (a very strange choice for Volkner) is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokemon, which means that only Fighting-type moves can deal super-effective damage. Its moves are mostly Status-based, but it has {{m|Agility}} and {{m|Nasty Plot}} to boost Speed and Sp. Atk respectively. Its only offensive move {{m|Shock Wave}} (yup, it is the only Volkner's Pokemon that doesn't have Charge Beam) may look weak, but being a variation of {{m|Aerial Ace}} and {{m|Swift}}, it never misses. Moreover, Ambipom's [[ability]] [[Technician]] will boost the power of this move because its power is only 60! | {{p|Ambipom}} (a very strange choice for Volkner, and the evolution of {{p|Aipom}}) is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokemon, which means that only Fighting-type moves can deal super-effective damage.

{{p|Octillery}} (an extremely strange choice for Volkner, and the evolution of {{p|Remoraid}}) is a {{type2|Water}} Pokemon, so you should use your own Electric-type attacks to deal with it. Grass-type moves may also work, but be careful of {{m|Aurora Beam}} if you're using a Grass-type Pokemon. | {{p|Octillery}} (an extremely strange choice for Volkner, and the evolution of {{p|Remoraid}}) is a {{type2|Water}} Pokemon, so you should use your own Electric-type attacks to deal with it.

Leave Sunyshore Gym, heal your Pokemon at the Pokemon Centre, then go to the beach where [[Jasmine]] is. Talk to her. She will notice that you got the Beacon Badge, and give you {{HM|07|Waterfall}}. Now you can finally climb waterfalls! Note that '''you'll also need {{HM|03|Surf}}'''. Only having Waterfall makes this HM completely useless on the field because all waterfalls are on water! | Leave Sunyshore Gym, heal your Pokemon at the Pokemon Centre, then go to the beach where [[Jasmine]] is.
