2. The Puzzles: Champion Road is a maze with a few puzzles:
* The Stepping Stones: This requires careful timing and jumping to avoid falling into the water.
* The Maze: This involves navigating through a maze to reach the next part.
3. The Gym Leader: At the end, you'll face the final challenge: The Champion, Lance, with his powerful Dragon-type team.

Strategies for Battling Lance:
* Use Strong Pokemon: Lance's team is powerful, so make sure your Pokemon are leveled up.
* Focus on Dragon-type Counters: Use Pokemon with strong Electric, Rock, Ice, or Dragon-type moves.
* Be Prepared for Dragonite: Lance's Dragonite is likely to be the toughest battle. Be sure to have a strong counter for it.
* Consider using a Special Attacker: Lance's team is mainly special, so a strong special attacker can do a lot of damage.
