The Vermilion Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Vermilion City. Its [[Gym Leader]], [[Lt. Surge]], focuses on {{type|Electric}} Pokémon. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{badge|Thunder}}. The [[Vermilion Gym]] appears in all games set in the [[Kanto]] region, appearing much the same in each: the main room is filled with 15 trash cans, and {{pkmn|Trainer}}s are scattered about this room. Beyond this room is another, guarded by electric doors in [[Generation I]], and an electric fence in [[Generation III]]. The only way to get in the final room in these [[generation]]s, where [[Lt. Surge]] is located, is to find two switches underneath the trash cans. If the first switch was found, but the {{player}} incorrectly guessed the second one, the traps would reset. In [[Generation II]], these traps are not turned on. After [[Lt. Surge]] is defeated, he will give the {{player}} the Thunder Badge, {{TM|34|Shock Wave}} or {{TM|24|Thunderbolt}} in [[Generation I]], and the ability to use {{m|Fly}} outside of {{pkmn|battle}}. | The Vermilion Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Vermilion City.
