About Pokemon Gym names

In the main Pokemon games a gym is usually known by the town it stands in, and the part players remember is the badge: one short word such as Boulder, Cascade or Rising that hints at the type. A fan region, a ROM hack or a server league needs both, so this list gives you both. Half of the entries are gyms, half are badges, and each carries its type in parentheses. All 18 types get an equal share, Dragon included.

Gym names come in two kinds. Some are built on the imagery of the type, like Wyrmcrest Gym (Dragon) and Tidewell Gym (Water). Others are named for the arena or its puzzle, like Ice Rink Gym (Ice), Warp Tile Gym (Psychic) and Old Lighthouse Gym (Steel). A few say Stadium, Arena or Dojo in place of Gym. Badges keep to the short pattern of the games, as in Cinder Badge (Fire) and Lantern Badge (Ghost), with a handful of crests, emblems, medals and pins for leagues that award something else.

Eighteen entries are badges from the games, one per type, and they show their region after the type: Boulder Badge (Rock, Kanto). Everything else is original and meant for your own league. For the person who hands the badge over, use the gym leader page.

How to choose Pokemon Gym names

  • Choose the type first, then pick a gym and a badge that share an image without sharing a word. Emberforge Gym pairs better with the Soot Badge than with the Ember Badge.
  • Name the gym for its puzzle when it has one. Slipfloor Gym (Ice) and Invisible Wall Gym (Poison) tell a challenger what is waiting inside before the first battle.
  • Keep a badge to one short word. A full set has to fit on a trainer card and be easy to say, which is why Scale Badge and Wisp Badge work better than long descriptive names.
  • For a whole region, plan the badges as a set so no two sound alike. Frost Badge and Floe Badge in the same league will be mixed up; Frost Badge and Tremor Badge will not.
  • In a friend league where every player runs one type, let each player pick a gym and a badge, then drop the parentheses when you write them on the league sheet.

Frequently asked questions

What does the type in parentheses mean?

It is the type the gym specializes in or the type the badge belongs to, so you can find a fit at a glance. Hollowlight Gym (Ghost) is a Ghost gym and Undertow Badge (Water) is a Water badge. Leave the parentheses out when you use the name.

Are these gyms and badges from the Pokemon games?

Almost all of them are original names for fan projects. Eighteen badges come from the games, one for each type, and they are marked with a region, as in Cascade Badge (Water, Kanto), Zephyr Badge (Flying, Johto) and Fairy Badge (Fairy, Kalos). This page is a fan resource with no tie to Nintendo, Game Freak or The Pokemon Company.

What is a good name for a Dragon type gym?

Try Wyrmcrest Gym, Ancient Roost Gym, High Eyrie Gym or Lairkeep Gym, all of which are in the list. For the badge, Scale Badge, Claw Badge, Hoard Badge and Roar Badge keep to the one-word style. Reroll until a Dragon entry comes up, or open the full A to Z list at the end of the page.

Can I use these names for a Pixelmon or Cobblemon server or a ROM hack?

Yes. The names suit any project where players or characters run gyms of one type, from server leagues to fan games and tabletop campaigns. Pair a gym and a badge from here with a name from the gym leader page and a town from the town page to fill in a whole stop on the route.
