Map of Seafoam Islands in Pokémon Gold and Silver
Blaine’s Gym in the Seafoam Islands (in-game map)

The Seafoam Islands lie on Route 20 between Cinnabar Island and Route 19. In Gold and Silver the only part you can enter is a cave that Blaine now uses as his Gym, after the volcano destroyed his old one on Cinnabar. There are no wild Pokémon here, and Blaine is the only trainer.

Tips

  • Blaine is the only trainer in the Gym, so you can walk straight up to him.
  • His team is a level 45 Magcargo, a level 45 Magmar and a level 50 Rapidash.
  • Magcargo is Fire and Rock, so Water and Ground moves do four times damage to it.
  • Magmar knows ThunderPunch, so take care sending in a Water-type against it.
  • Rapidash knows Fire Blast; beating Blaine earns the Volcano Badge but no TM.
