Pokemon Black White Walkthrough Part 19 – Nimbasa City Gym Challenge

This is an interesting Gym where you need to navigate the Gym with Roller Coasters! To start, go forward and hop into the roller coaster car and ride it over to the next platform. Here, run over to the right and find your first trainer for the Gym.This is Lady Magnolia with her 2 Emolga lvl. 24. After the battle, you can step on the switch nearby, this will make it so the coaster car will carry you to the next area. Step out past the point you entered to find the next trainer, Rich Boy Cody. He will send out a Blitzle lvl. 25. After you take care of him, step on the faint yellow switch nearby to alter the course of the next roller coaster car so it will come over to you. When it arrives and you hop into it, you will find a trainer waiting for you. This is Rich Boy Roland with his 2 Blitzle lvl. 24.

Hop into the new free car and ride it to the next stop. There is another switch to step on. Do so and hop into the next car. There is another trainer waiting for you inside this car as well. This is Lady Colette with her Emolga lvl. 25.

Just as Colette said, she was the last trainer before the Gym Leader. You can get back to the start of the Gym by going over to the far side and stepping on the switch. While you can get to the entrance, you will need to go through the other roller coaster cars to get back to the Gym Leader.

For this battle, you will want to be packing a good number of Parlyz Heal if you do not have a Ground-type on your team. Two of her Pokemon can paralyze yours just by them hitting with physical attacks.

Elesa
Hyper Potion: 2

Emolga lvl. 25 – Pursuit, Aerial Ace, Volt Switch, Quick Attack
Emolga lvl. 25 – Pursuit, Aerial Ace, Volt Switch, Quick Attack
Zebstrika  lvl. 25 – Quick Attack, Spark, Volt Switch, Flame Charge

This battle is not too bad if you have a Ground-type Pokemon to null Volt Switch. Otherwise, you will be getting hit by it quite frequently. This makes it hard to predict who you will be hitting. If you have numerous Ground-type attacks, they will be useless against the Emolga. However, pack a Rock move or two and you won't have many concerns about any of her Pokemon. She only has a few potions if she uses them against you.

After the battle Elesa stammers a little and congratulates you on your victory. You will receive the Bolt Badge and TM 72, Volt Switch. She will offer to clear the way to Route 5 for you. This is an offer you should take up. That is now the next stop.
