'''Juan''' is the eighth and final [[Hoenn]] gym leader to be battled in ''[[Pokémon: Emerald Version]]'' (replacing [[Wallace]], who was the gym leader in ''[[Pokémon: Ruby and Sapphire Versions]]''). Like Wallace, he specializes in Water-type Pokémon.

=Background=

Juan was the original gym leader of the [[Sootopolis City]] Pokémon gym and the mentor of Wallace, claiming to have taught Wallace everything he knew about Pokémon. Like Wallace, he saw elegance as important and dressed fancily. Eventually Juan gave up his position as gym leader to Wallace, but in the ''Emerald Version'' Juan was convinced to reprise his role as gym leader after Wallace became the champion of the Elite Four.

Juan was ultimately challenged and defeated by [[Brendan]]/[[May]]. He saw potential in the trainer but did not think they had they elegance of he and Wallace, jokingly offering to lend the trainer his clothes. Afterwards, he could be challenged to rematches in the form of double battles.

==Pokémon Roster==

Juan uses the following Pokémon for the first battle in ''Emerald'':

*[[Luvdisc]]
*[[Whiscash]]
*[[Sealeo]]
*[[Crawdaunt]]
*[[Kingdra]]

He then uses the following Pokémon in subsequent rematches:

*[[Poliwag]], Whiscash, [[Walrein]], Crawdaunt and Kingdra in the first rematch
*[[Poliwhirl]], Whiscash, Walrein, Crawdaunt and Kingdra in the second rematch
*[[Lapras]], Whiscash, Poliwhirl, Walrein, Crawdaunt and Kingdra in the third rematch
*[[Politoed]], Lapras, Whiscash, Walrein, Crawdaunt and Kingdra in the fourth rematch

=Other Appearances=

*Juan appears in a two-part episode of the Pokémon anime, where he is the gym leader of Sootopolis in keeping with ''Emerald''. He is shown to be a great celebrity around Sootopolis as well as a champion Pokémon Coordinator who won the Grand Festival. In the episode he battles [[Red#Ash Ketchum|Ash]] to a two-part 5 Vs. 5 Pokémon battle, which starts as a double battle with the first two and then becomes a normal battle after two Pokémon faint. Juan is ultimately defeated, earning Ash his last Hoenn badge.
*Juan appears in the ''Pokémon Adventures'' manga during the ''Ruby''/''Sapphire'' arc, where he is the former Sootopolis gym leader although he winds up reclaiming his post after Wallace accepts the champion's post. He saves [[Tate & Liza]] from [[Team Magma]]'s trap and uses them in his training of [[Brendan|Ruby]] and [[May|Sapphire]] in team battles to prepare them for battling two great evils he saw in a prophecy, although the enemies wind up being [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]] rather than [[Groudon]] and [[Kyogre]] as he suspected.

-=Trivia=
-*He may be named after the fictional Spanish character Don Juan, and/or in reference to the word "water". His Japanese name is "Adan", from the Japanese word for the thatch screwpine and also possibly referencing the Japanese word for 'open sea'.
-*He does not appear at all in ''[[Pokémon: Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]'', but he is mentioned by Wallace's niece [[Lisia]]. During the game's Delta Episode, Wallace also mentions that his duty as an ancient Sootopolitan was passed down to him by his former master. If that is referring to Juan, then that would indicate that he is also a descendant of the ancient Sootopolitans.
