Wattson can be the first major challenge for many trainers. His Pokemon will electrocute Flying and Water types, and his Magnemite and Magneton will resist most forms of damage. To top things off, Voltorb is a powerful speedster, with Sonicboom and Selfdestruct threatening to deal relatively major damage.If you picked Treeko you're on your own.

A ground type Pokemon like Geodude will be immune to dangerous electric attacks, although it will still have worries thanks to the sheer power of Wattson's attacks. If you picked Torchic to start with or have gotten yourself a Pokemon with Fighting moves, you will be glad to hear that Magnemite and Magneton are weak against Fire and Fighting attacks.

If you chose Mudkip it probably will have evolved, and this will be a walk in the park.

Beating Wattson wins you TM34, which is {{bpm|Shock Wave}}, a powerful electric attack that never misses and can't be evaded. He will also give you your third gym badge, the Dynamo Badge. It will boost the speed of all your Pokémon as well as allow you to use {{bpm|Rock Smash}} outside of battle, letting you complete the route between [[../Verdanturf Town]] and continue north along [[../Route 111/]].
