You'd think my favorite Kanto leader would be Blaine... but no, not really.
I actually despised that gym for the lack of creativity - never really liked him. No, my favorite Kanto leader has to be Erika, and it has absolutely nothing to do with her gym or her team at all. I just always got stuck in Rock Tunnel as a kid (hey, I was young), so getting out and exploring Celadon City was a big deal to me. I grew to really like Erika for only that reason.
