Unlike in Emerald, the gyms in Pokémon Platinum have all had a radical redesign in comparison to the gyms in Diamond & Pearl. These incorporate more puzzles than before in order to make it even more of an accomplishment to get the badge. We'll add each gym as we go, but until now we only have info for a small number of gyms

Gym #1 - Oreburgh Gym

The Oreburgh Gym remains unchanged from DP. It has several levels, one which allows you to avoid trainers and another that allows you to go straight through to Roark by battling trainers. You earn TM 76; Stealth Rock by defeating the gym

The Eterna City gym has a brand new puzzle to it. As opposed to finding and then battling each of the trainers within the gym.

You earn TM 86; Grass Knot by defeating the gym

Gym #3 - Hearthome Gym

Hearthome Gym has also changed drastically. First, you can now do it first time you get to Hearthome. Instead of navigating multiple levels and hoping you choose the correct door to progress to the next area, it appears you are in a darkened maze, with only a flashlight illuminating the area directly in front of you to find a pattern that opens up doors. Bordered up with Duskull lamps, you will be able to see where other trainers are. Your task is to get through the maze to find Fantina and battle her. You earn TM 65; Shadow Claw by defeating the gym
