The Nimbasa Gym was first seen in ''[[BW049|Enter Elesa, Electrifying Gym Leader!]]''. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived there was a note saying that [[Elesa]] was somewhere else. Later it was revealed that {{an|Bianca}} had already requested a battle, therefore Ash had to wait until she was done. With the group observing, Bianca battled Elesa, but eventually lost.

The Nimbasa Gym appeared in ''[[PS484|Battle on a Roller Coaster]]'', where {{adv|Black}} challenged Elesa. Like in the games, the Gym is filled with a big roller coaster, with Elesa waiting at the end. However, when Black reached Elesa, he realized that he couldn't open his safety harness, forcing him to stay in his moving car during the battle. Using her favorite move, {{m|Volt Switch}}, Elesa was able to launch rapid fire attacks while avoiding Black's Pokémon's attacks. With good timing, Black was able to defeat Elesa's {{p|Zebstrika}} with [[Nite]]'s {{m|Bulldoze}}, leaving her with just {{p|Emolga}}. With its great speed and {{type|Flying}} attacks, Emolga came close to defeating Nite, but with some quick thinking, Black came up with a strategy of using a roller coaster loop for Nite to land a surprise attack on Emolga from above, defeating it.

Just when Elesa was about to hand Black a {{badge|Bolt}} as a sign of his victory, his car started moving again, taking Black to an outside portion of the roller coaster, where he encountered {{DL|Forces of Nature (Adventures)|Thundurus}}, which unleashed a lightning bolt on him, shocking him and opening his harness in the process. Back inside the Gym, Elesa told Black how she had also encountered Thundurus in her past.

Zebstrika was first seen as a drawing when Black was reading a book while deciding on strategies to defeat Elesa in their upcoming Gym Battle. Later, it was seen in person along with Elesa's other Pokémon while it was seen being dressed up in preparation of the Pokémon Musical. Zebstrika was used against Black during the Gym battle, where it defeated his Tula after exploiting its Motor Drive Ability to raise its speed. Eventually, Zebstrika was defeated by Black's [[Nite]].

==Trivia==
* In {{2v2|Black|White}}, Nimbasa Gym is the only Gym where the [[Gym Leader]]'s monetary reward is the lower than all of the other [[Pokémon Trainer]]s present in the Gym. This is probably due to the fact that the Trainers are {{tc|Rich Boy}}s and {{tc|Lady|Ladies}}, who give a higher [[prize money]] than most other {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es.

* Due to {{DL|List of glitches in Generation V|Nimbasa Gym Trainer glitch|a glitch}}, if the player loses to {{tc|Lady}} Colette while directly facing her when encountered, when the player comes back in she will be standing on the same spot and will battle the player. After she is defeated, she still remains on the tracks of the roller coaster, and can be passed through while riding the roller coaster to [[Elesa]].
