Gym Leader Rematches

Would you want them to be once a week? Or whenever the gym leaders choose? Do you check back or would it be the job of the professor to let you know when you can go for gym leader rematches? How much more money do you want from rematches? Would you want full teams of six, or just the same team they used in-game? Discuss!

This has been a feature since b/w.... I doubt they will remove it in gen 6..... But it could be just me...

Well they didn't have it in B/W, which is why it comes to mind as to whether it'll just skip that generation and appear here or not. :3 All of us are totally hopeful though!!

Kinda iffy. I never really saw the bonus to the rematches. Point of the Gym Leader was to test trainers to hand out badges. Fighting them again seemed redundant and I kinds expected a penalty for losing to them in rematches like you lose your badge for losing to them since you failed to keep up to the standards of qualification.

We've never had a Rematch system for Gym Leaders, along with two other specific things that a lot of people tend to ask for each new generation. Like with the leaking of B/W I'm going with the there won't be any Rematches until the second set of games (be it thirds or more sequels). This along with Battle Frontier and Move Tutors. I don't expect to see any of these appearing in the primary games for the generation.
