Favorite Elite Four and Gym Leader?

My favorite gym leader is Volkner and Elite Four member...hmm...Kared.

My favourite Gym Leader is probably Misty, loved her in the anime and I love Water Pokemon as well (particularly Starmie!) I also like Sabrina and Viola, mostly due to their anime appearances.

Regarding the Elite Four, I like Caitlin.

While I'd like to give shoutouts to Blaine, Koga, and Flannery, my favorite Gym Leader is easily Jasmine. Just like CobaltAndTurquoise, there's something about a sweet, caring girl training menacing Steel type Pokemon like Steelix that caught my attention right away. I was also happy to see her make a cameo in the Sinnoh games, since I definitely wasn't expecting to see her there.

As for my favorite Elite Four member, I'll go with Grimsley. I've always thought that he had one of the most interesting backstories of the Elite Four members, and I've consistenly found him one of the toughest E4 members to beat, so he gets my vote here.

How on earth did I forget Jasmine?! I love her for the exact same reasons, I always thought it was awesome to see the contrast between the sweet Jasmine and the aggressive Steelix. <3 Her cameo in Sinnoh was definitely a nice touch :)

I tend to like characters who go against what you'd expect of specialists of their type so my favourite Gym Leaders (I can't choose between them) are Maylene and Candice with honourable mentions going to Jasmine for being the only likeable female Johto leader imo, Elesa for the fantastic portrayal of her character and Volkner for that genuine laughter shining through his moody cool guy demeanour.

As for Elite Four members my favourite is Grimsley because I love his design and his personality and he uses my favourite type! Honourable mentions go to Karen for that quote and Drasna, since even though her team is kinda bad I loved how she represented a different side to the dragon type than its other specialists, focusing more on its mysticality than its strength and power
