The Eterna Gym (Japanese: ハクタイジム Hakutai Gym) is the official gym of Eterna City. It is based on Template:Type2 Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Gardenia. Trainers who defeat her receive the Forest Badge.

In the games

In Diamond and Pearl

The Eterna Gym consists of a green foyer, past which is an greenhouse room where an indoor forest is arranged in a maze-like pattern. The trainers of the Gym hide and wait behind trees and natural surroundings, and Gardenia will not accept challenges until all of her students are defeated too. Every time a trainer is defeated, they give a hint about where another foe is. Trainers of the Gym are fond of using status-inducing moves such as Poison Sting, Leech Seed, and Stun Spore.

In Pokémon Platinum, the entire Gym has been redesigned. The gym now contains four areas with a giant clock in the middle, separating these areas. For every trainer the player defeats, the hands of the clock move in a certain direction. Once the clocks hands spins to the north, south, east or west direction, the player can walk onto the clock and progress to other areas of the gym. Gardenia awaits the player in the northern area of the gym (when the larger hand reaches 12 o'clock).
