Battlefield

The Cinnabar Gym (Japanese: グレンジム Guren Gym) is the official gym of Cinnabar Island. It is based on Template:Type2 Pokémon. The Gym Leader is Blaine. Trainers who defeat him receive the Volcano Badge.

In the anime

The Cinnabar Gym has two sections in the anime; one is inside of the volcano, and has an arena suspended over the lava inside one of the chambers. The other arena is in the top crater of the volcano itself.

In Riddle Me This, Ash was trying to locate the gym so he could challenge Blaine. He was told by a man who liked telling riddles that the gym disappeared when Cinnabar Island became a tourist trap. However, the man eventually told Ash that Blaine built another gym inside of a volcano. When Ash and the others went in, they learned that the riddler was actually Blaine in disguise.

Ash and Blaine battled, but Ash had a series of misfortunes. The first was his Squirtle being defeated by Blaine's Ninetales. Then, his Charizard refused to listen to him. Finally, Pikachu received severe burns caused by his Magmar's Fire Blast. Ash called off the battle, not wanting Pikachu to get injured.

In Volcanic Panic, after Team Rocket had almost destroyed Blaine's gym, he agreed to a rematch on his alternate battlefield on top of the volcano. This time, Ash was able to defeat Blaine with the help of his Charizard and its Seismic Toss.

In the games

Cinnabar Gym in FireRed and LeafGreen

The Cinnabar Gym is a high-tech affair featuring a series of sealed doors. Trivia questions about various Pokémon must be answered to unseal the doors. However, when the player fails to answer a trivia question correctly, a battle with either a Burglar or Super Nerd is resulted, an alternate to unsealing the doors.

In Pokémon Gold and Silver, Blaine's original gym on Cinnabar Island was destroyed by a volcanic eruption. This forced him to relocate to a cave on Seafoam Island.

A field based on the gym also appears in Pokémon Stadium's Gym Leader Castle.
