The Opelucid Gym is designed like a thin maze, with switches to open up the correct path. These switches cause dragon statues' heads to move, creating new paths for the {{player}}. After the switches have been hit in the right order, the path will lead the player to the Leader. Behind the Gym Leader, there's a [[warp tile]] the player can use as a shortcut back to the entrance.


Clyde tells the player about the mechanics of the maze, although he says there are only two dragons, when there are actually three.

In the two years between Black and White and Black 2 and White 2, the Opelucid Gym was remodeled to hide the [[DNA Splicers]]; signs of construction can still be seen around the Gym.

In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, the Gym features a white{{sup/5|B2}}/black{{sup/5|W2}} dragon vertically on a wall and a black{{sup/5|B2}}/white{{sup/5|W2}} dragon which the player can control to move to a certain position by stepping on the buttons appearing on its head. The Trainers of the Gym are on four different levels; the player must defeat at least one Trainer from each level to be able to proceed to the next level. On the topmost level, the player will meet Drayden. The DNA Splicers are hidden within the Gym. Because of this, [[Team Plasma]] froze Opelucid City.

The Opelucid Gym first appeared in ''[[PS504|The Cold Hard Truth]]'', where Drayden was seen holding a press conference in front of the Gym. He announced that the date of the Pokémon League tournament had been pushed up, being held in one week instead of the original three months. Inside the Gym, Drayden explained [[Kimi]] that the decision was made in order to lure [[Team Plasma]] out of their hiding.
In [[PS526]], it was revealed that Iris had been made the new Gym Leader of the Opelucid Gym, although Drayden has plans to reclaim his position at some point.
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], as shown in ''[[PS505|A Cold Reception]]'', the Gym has similar dragon statues as in {{2v2|Black|White}}.
