Falkner himself isn't that much of a challenge Cyndaquil or Totodile can take them out quickly. The S-shaped gym hosts two trainers before Falkner, both of whom use the Flying-type birds Pidgey and Spearow that you meet early in the game. However, it is recommended you train in Sprout Tower before taking on the gym challenge.

His gym has no puzzle to complete, and can be challenged as soon as you get to Violet City. The first leader in Johto is the young Flying-type master. Reward: Zephyr Badge, TM31, Can use HM05 - Flash

Reversing the rule of Red and Blue, the Fire-type starter Cyndaquil will make your trek through Johto an easy one, whereas the Grass-type starter Chikorita is recommended more for those who want a challenge. A balanced team is key to getting all the badges, and depending on who you started with you'll have an easier or harder time. Like before, some gyms contain puzzles you must solve to get to the leader. The first eight leaders are all the same as GS, mastering types the leaders of old hadn't.
