    For the gym leader why they did not get 6 pokemon when battle with character.. Let's think about it, gym leader diferrent with ordinary trainer is it? Why they got only few pokemon & the last got 6 pokemon.. it did not fair, its seem to me gym leader is weak..

  • While I'm sure experienced players wouldn't mind the challenge of some of the Gym Leaders having a full team of Pokemon when you first battle them, it might not be fair to new players if they get to Roxanne's Gym and only have 2 or 3 of their own.

    If Challenge Mode from Black 2 had been introduced as early as Emerald though, I think that would've been the perfect opportunity to add Gym Leaders with full parties. At least Emerald features the Battle Frontier if you're looking for a challenge from in-game battles!

  • Gym Leaders are ordinary trainers, they just specialise in a given type. They hence use Pokémon of that type, often of higher level or something along those lines, which is supposed to be the distinction. There is hence little reason to give them all 6 Pokémon, when generally speaking they would rather take into consideration their overall design as a Gym leader, and experience, rather than just spamming Pokémon at the expense of rhythm, in the game.

  • You're right that Team Rocket went to Hoenn in the anime. At least Jessie, James, and Meowth did to stalk Ash and his Pikachu. I think Jessie caught herself a Seviper when she was in Hoenn and competed against May in Pokemon Contests.

    I wish you could compete in contests in Emerald version before getting to Lilycove. I remember rushing through the plot so I could get there.
