As always, the white-haired guy at the beginning of the gym will give you a Fresh Water.

The trainers in this gym specialize in Electric Pokemon. Ground Pokemon like Sandile are not affected by Electric attacks at all so they are a good choice to use. This gym is a set of roller coasters. Take the first coaster with the blue track and take the first exit. You'll find a Lady before the switch.

Enter the coaster and ride it to the first exit. Walk north to battle Elesa. She has two Pokemon that are part Flying-type and her Blitzle knows Flame Charge so Grass Pokemon will have a rough time. The easiest Pokemon to use against Elesa at this stage of the game is Sandile because he has complete resistance to Electric attacks.
