Let's talk about Gym leaders.
This should come as no surprise. 8 new gyms with leaders specializing in a certain type will be introduced with the new region.
What do you think/hope will happen with them? Maybe more challenging puzzles? Maybe just less puzzles and more battles? Fire away. |
I think we should finally see a Dark type gym, I would also like something besides a Rock gym as the 1st Gym, even though the Second Generation had Falkner, a flying type leader, Dark is the only one I can think of.
|
The Gym Puzzles are ridiculous filler. I'd rather see more Gym Leader storyline involvement and the gyms should evolve beyond mono-type and mix it up a bit.
|
I wouldn't mind seeing another ground type gym either. The first gym should be dark or normal, other types are too cool for the first gym XD
Edit: instead of just having them specialize in one type, why not have them be more specialized with certain fighting styles. One gym could be all offensive, while another prefers to inflict status moves. |
gym leaders should be more involved with the plot :)
but also- types i want to see (no particular order) Grass Flying Dark Normal Fire Ice Psychic Ground (or rock) |
I agree with the Dark Gym idea :P It could be the first way you see Zoroark (like Lucario in the Fighting gym for DPPt)
|
I think it's about time that a Dark Type gym is introduced into the Pokemon Universe, as dark types came about in the 2nd Generation, and it's already the 5th.. I'd also like to some gyms that haven't been used a lot, Dragon, Bug, Ground, per say. I really hope that there isn't going to be the obligatory Rock Type gym that comes first, but something spices things up like how things in the 2nd Gen were.
And regarding gym leaders, I definitely think that they need a more prominent role in the plots surrounding their city or town they reside in, which is how things are set in the Anime. This way we could get more plot set into the games while also getting to learn more about the gym leaders and have fun instead of just passing through some type of maze and then battling the leader. And since Gym Leader's are there to help the trainer out along their journeys, it would be cool if they showed up once and a while to give you some random item or tip, per say. I don't know, I just want to see more involvement really XD |

If you prefer the puzzles to the battles you are a) playing the wrong game and b) need to invest in some Tetris Time so you can become sharp enough to move on to better puzzles then rotating blocks to get from one ledge to another.
|
I'm going to go along with the croud here and say please, please, please let there be a Dark-type gym and please, please, please may the first type not be Rock. Rock should come in 5th or 6th to give it a chance to shine because it dosn't necessarily need to be a noobish type. Look at Brock in HG/SS.
I would like more intricate and extravagant gym puzzles and designs like the ones in Platinum and in HG/SS. I think they should stick with monotype as it gives the gym more structure. A mixture would just get monotonous. The gym leaders can still have themes and gimmicks of course (eg. Whitney uses cute pokemon etc.). I do like the idea of gym leaders taking more prominence in the storyline though. I mean, why didn't Sabrina just destroy Team Rocket herself istead of just sitting back while they took over the city? |
Gyms need to keep their type themes, but the leaders don't necessarily need to have monotype teams. Throw in one pokemon of a different type to deal with pokemon that can normally wall the rest of the team. (such as an electric gym leader using a water type to deal with n00bs that think they can wall him with a ground-type, and possibly set up a rain dance/thunder combo or something).
I think we need a Dark-type gym pretty badly, and bug-type, poison-type, ground-type, and dragon-type gyms need to be brought back. :P |
First off I think the gym leaders should incorporate more of a strategy than mindlessly abusing the same type. Like Timbjerr said, throw in one of another time.
I think we need another steel-type gym with something other than Steelix abuse, but that's unlikely. :( |
If there is another
Rock/Water gyms i will kill myslef |

I'd also like the return of rematches. |
Looking at what Lily said above, I definitely want the return of Gym Leader Rematches as well. But the thing is, in HG/SS I feel that the whole process of re-battling a Gym Leader was too complex and confusing, even if it did provide some sort of challenge. I liked the simplicity of the Trainer Café in Platinum and how each leader came in randomly. So I hope something like that will be implemented.
I wouldn't mind if we could re-battle them in their own gym, as well. |
Okay :-
Rock/Ground Fire Water/Ice Electric Flying Psychic/Ghost Grass/Poison/Bug Dragon Dark Steel Fighting So 8 of those *although they always combine types for gyms. 1st- Rock 2nd- Flying 3rd-Fighting/Ground 4th-Dark/Psychic 5th- Water 6th- Grass/Bug/Poison 7th- Electric 8th- I quite like - like Gary - a mixture of them all. |
Let's see, these are the number of gyms that each type has:
Rock: 3 (Pewter, Rustboro, Oreburgh) Fighting: 3 (Cianwood, Dewford, Veilstone) Electric: 3 (Vermillion, Mauville, Sunnyshore) Water: 3 (Cerulean, Sootopolis, Pastoria) Grass: 2 (Celadon, Eterna) Fire: 2 (Cinnabar, Lavaridge) Ghost: 2 (Eurecteak, Hearthome) Psychic: 2 (Saffron, Mossdeep) Ice: 2 (Mahogany, Snowpoint) Steel: 2 (Olivine, Canaclave) Flying: 2 (Violet, Fortree) Normal: 2 (Goldenrod, Petalburg) Bug: 1 (Azalea) Dragon: 1 (Blackthorn) Ground: 1 (Viridian) Poison: 1 (Fuschia) Dark: 0 I think that Dark is a definite, GF would have to be brain-dead to leave it out again. It'll probably be a late gym as Dark-types are generally quite strong and a Dark-type leader is likely to use complex tactics, though it could work as an early gym. I think we are very likely to see Bug, Dragon, Ground and Poison as we've only had one of each, and none in the last two generations. I'd like to see a late Bug gym and an early Dragon gym, that would be interesting, people would think Bug=weak and Dragon=strong, but a gym leader with Heracross, Scizor and the like would shut them up. Although we did just have a Bug E4 member, so maybe a middle gym is more likely for Bug. We're unlikely to see any of the gyms that already have 3 to their name, that would be overkill. So we have the 8 with 2, competing for 3 spaces. It could be any of them, but logic hopes that we won't see any of the same gyms we saw in the last generation, therefore it'll be 3 of Fire, Psychic, Flying and Normal. Now Psychic has been overdone all around, with 2 E4 members to its name, but I suspect we might well see a Flying and/or Normal-type E4 member, as they, along with Grass, are the only types not yet represented in the E4, and so are unlikely to have a gym as well. Of course, this is all assuming that they keep to the monotyped gym formula. It's likely that they will, but this generation does seem to be different from the others in many ways, and we keep getting the message that these games will be different from any other game before, so anything is possible. This is also assuming that GF have a shred of logic to their name, which is debatable. So, my top three wishes: 1) Dark-type gym, 'nuff said. 2) No Fighting-type gym leader OR E4 member please. So far we've had 2 E4 members and 3 and a half gyms. That's quite enough, thank you. 3) Please, god please, no Rock gym. And if there is what, can it not be the first gym? We've done it three times already, any more would be simply ridiculous. It's boring, repetitive and uninspired, and we've had enough of it. |
I'd like it to be COMPLETELY different i.e
Psychic Fire Dragon Steel Water Grass Bug Dark I really want a Dark type gym leader |
i think we'll definatly see a dark type gym, but there's a strong possibility for a new type. probably a space type, because who really belives the gaurdians of time and space should be steel (even though dialga's my favorite ledgend) and water combos?

I too am hoping for a Dark gym and no first time around rock gym. My other idea was to make gyms part of the terrain, so instead of having to enter a building you have to climb a mountain!! Wild pokemon battle included!! That way you could even return to the gym to train!! |
I kind of want something completely different. Not just another elemental type gym leader specialty, but actually a gym leader who has a team of another type. For example, how Falkner specialized in bird types (which is obviously flying), but I would like to have what I think would be called a "species" leader. For example, like that bird idea, they could have a canine leader (Pokemon that resemble dogs) or a feline leader (Pokemon that resemble cats) and maybe some others, a turtle leader or whatever.
Not like they would do something like that, but it would be nice to see something a little bit different. |

And Sweet Smoochum, there's already a Fire Type gym with a red haired female: Flannery from the R/S/E games. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Flannery. Of course, she's pretty easy to beat. :x |
I think just about everyone has probably already said this before me, but I'm guessing we'll finally see the introduction of a dark type gym. Am I jumping for joy? No not really, I mean it will be nice to finally see a dark gym, but I'm not overly excited for it. I am hoping it will house Pokemon like Umbreon and Houndour, not just all the newer dark types.
The one thing I will say though is that I really hope the first gym is not a rock type gym. In fact I would like it if there wasn't even a rock gym leader throughout the whole game. Brock was nostalgic, Roxanne was forgettable, and Roark is annoying. I don't need another rock gym leader to stare at especially if they end up being the first gym leader. |

If they're going to have gyms and badges I want there to be new ways to challenge them and get them thar badges.
I'd like to see you team up with a gym leader to battle off some foes and save the day. They can give you a badge for that rather than for beating them in a battle. Of course it's not as much fun if you can't battle them so they can work that into the story as a fun battle between friends once the crisis is averted. I want to see the gym leaders integrated heavily into the story as friends of the characters, relatives, or even enemies/rivals/opponents/whatever. |
Quote:
|
If we do get a Dark-type gym I can see Zoroark being the signature Pokemon (like Lucario was).
|
The gyms shouldn't be based on type it should be based on strategy,like A Trick Room Gyms with Slow pokemon for the trainers and the Leader has A bunch of pokemon who utilizes Trick Room Well.(then gives out Trick Room)Or maybe a Baton Pass team.Trainers uses Stat boosting move and the leader uses a chain Baton Pass team and gives out Swords Dance as the TM
|
I'd like to see Bug get a bit more respect too. Bugsy's Scyther wasn't the worst, but they could still go one up with Scizor or Vespiquen or any new bug types in Gen V.
|
All I want is
- No gym buildings, instead you go through a cave or a forest or an ocean to find not a gym leader, but a "Badge Bearer", a person who gives you a badge once you defeat them. -No ROCK TYPE, they're too easy -Dark Type all the way |
I would like to see the puzzles kept in these games, I enjoyed the puzzles in all the generation games, so why not keep the tradition running?
|
they seriously need to make a dark type gym
good team zoroark absol spritomb ????? 5th gen dark type Quote:
|
Well I do believe that gym leaders are supposed to protect their cities, I just want them to play a major role in the story (besides just defeating them)

Maybe something like this:
Maybe a different order. The ones bolded are the ones Timbjerr said and also the ones that we do actually need brought back. The other three are possible ones that I would like to see put in there. Maybe there could be a Steel-type gym in the game, too? |

i tihnk we should have this:
Ghost Fire Water Grass Dragon Dark Mixed Mixed ------ Also no gym puzzles, just fill it up with trainers you have to fight :P i personally want the gym leaders, and e4 to be involved more into the storyline i loved platinum for that :3 (platinum is only 2nd to Johto Region Games :P ) |
I would have to agree would a lot of people and say a dark type gym because it's the only type we haven't seen so far.
Karen of the Johto E4 uses dark types but she doesn't count because she's not a gym leader. |
I would like to see.
Fighting Dark Steel Psychic Poison Dragon Fire Flying |
Perhaps this:
Rock (it's tradition, that makes it OK) Bug Poison Dark Ground Electric (with a female Gym Leader this time) Ghost Dragon |
Well from what i heard there will be another new type called "Light"... they probabaly make a GYM for that one....
|
One thing I dislike about how gyms are set up is in many towns, you could just roll up, kick gym butt, and roll out, spare maybe a small encounter. In every city, there needs to be some sort of dilemma solved before you can fight the gym leader in every town. In most cases, the problem should involve said leader, thus adding at least a bit more involvement with their characters. Say the gym leader wants to quit, and refuses to go back into his gym. Say another hhas been kidnapped, or missing for the past few days. I think if Team Generic has some kind of plot involving gym leaders, that could also help keep them out of their gyms. And face it, it doesn't quite stack up that Team Generic isn't scared of the all mighty gym leaders busting their balls, and likewise the gym leaders stay out of Team Generic's affairs.
|
I think gyms will be the same like in the other games but i agree with the idea of dark gym,they never made one before and a dragon gym will be awsome.
|
I would like to see this combo:
|
well that was volker(cant spell) from sunnyshore in 4th gen. he has an octillery to deal with ground types
|
Quote:
Wonder how they could implement that in b&w but I'm sure they'd find a way. Anyways, the gym leaders I think should be in this order: Normal or Normal/Fighting ----Pkmn: Bidoof, Tyrogue, two gen 5 normals Electric ----Pkmn: Gen 5 electrics, maybe a luxio or pikachu Steel ----Pkmn: Scizor, two gen 5 steel types, skarmory or metang Psychic ---Pkmn: Raltz! or Espeon, the rest gen 5 Fire ---Pkmn: ALL GEN 5 FIRE TYPES, so at least 3 Water ---Pkmn: Gen 5 water types, maybe a wailmer added in too cuz I love 'em Dragon ---Pkmn: Garchomp or Flygon, gen 5 dragons Dark ---Pkmn: Zoroark, Absol, Honchcrow, 2 other gen 5 dark types . Rock has been the first gym for too many gens, and honestly I feel that having rock be 3rd would mean stronger rock types and not just make rock gyms known as the 'easy ones' anymore. We haven't had psychic since what Kanto (if I'm right) so it should be brought back. Fire deserves to be strong, but at the same time I'm not in favor of make it one of the last 3. I added water because more than likely there will be a ton of new water types, and they're like a cornerstone of pokemon games so not having a water gym wouldn't make since. Dark should be last to show its true power and Dragon 7th. |
We need a good Dark Type Gym. That would be lovely; I could see the gym leader using Zorua or Zoroark. Heh heh heh. [/devious]
I would also love a nice normal type gym ... a powerful one, because normal types are fun to go against. They have a lot of health and strategies that lend a good challenge. Another fighting gym would be nice ... but a thing they need to update is the puzzles in the gyms to get to the gym leaders / advance further into the gym. Fantina's gym had the right idea, but they were too easy. An actual challenging puzzle would be awesome. |
I'm hoping for a tough first and last leader. The last installment of the Pokemon franchise disappointed me with their last choices for levels and Pokemon for the party, ect. I honestly wouldn't mind a challenge.
|
I'm looking forward to this:
1st: grass - root badge 2nd: water - whirl badge 3rd: electric - lightning badge 4th: poison - fog badge 5th: ice - icy-eye badge 6th: psychic - sound badge 7th: dragon - tornado badge 8th: fire - firesoul badge :P |
Gym Types You Expect to See in Pokemon Black & White?
Assuming there are 8 gyms in this region, as with the past, what 8 types do you expect to be found within the Isshu region? (Didn't see a thread on this)
I expect a rock-type gym, since it has been in the past three of four regions. I also expect a dark-type gym, considering there hasn't been one as of yet. So, what types are you expecting? How about with the Elite Four and Champion? |
Dark type since we've yet to have one and it's the only type that doesn't have it's own gym.
Maybe Psychic and Flying too. |
Yeah, for Four Generations now, we haven't yet seen a Dark type gym and I think it's about time we do see one, i'd also like to see a flying type gym.
|
I'd like a dark one, fire, water, grass, ground, a multiple type gym leader, maybe steel, another normal type gym.
|
Poison, maybe. We haven’t had one of those in a while. =S
|
Kanto's gym leader Koga or something like that
|
I think it's time for a flying gym.
|
I think Poison, Dark, Bug, Flying, Dragon, Fighting, Ground and Psychic Gyms would be nice.
|
Quote:
Oh yeah, I forgot. Haha. xP |
Gym 1: Rock (You know it will be)
Gym 2: Bug (we have not had one since Gen 2) Gym 3: Fire Gym 4: Ghost Gym 5: Water (Don't we always have a water gym?) Gym 6: Poison (we have not had one since Gen 1) Gym 7: Ice (Don't we always have an ice gym too?) Gym 8: Dark (we need one badly) Elite 1: Ground Elite 2: Psychic Elite 3: Flying Elite 4: Steel Champion: Variety (Monotype Champions are too easy) |
Gym 1: Rock
Gym 2: Flying Gym 3: Dark Gym 4: Steel Gym 5: Elecrtirc Gym 6: Water Gym 7:Poisen Gym 8: Fire Elite 4 1: Fighting 2:Fire 3:Ice 4:Psycic Champion: Normal |
I would expect to battle against:
Water Fire Grass Flying Electric Dark Psychic Ground Not in any particular order, just listed as they came to mind. |
Quote:
|
And Flying was the first gym in Jhoto as well. As to the suggestion of a normal type champion, thats far too easy
|
I personally think they should up the amount of badges to 17(or more if new types are added) and have a Gym for each type, 8 badges always seemed low after G/S/C.

Like everyone else, Dark type gym plz.
I'd also like a Fire type gym and a Psychic type gym just because I love those types. I don't care what the other gym's types are, but I would like to have something other than Rock first. |
I think it would be very cool if the game aged as we have. I don't know if there are others like me, but I've been playing this game for 13 years. Maybe switching it up, like adding more gyms/ or making it so the E4 has more than just a monotype team would be awesome.
But, other than that: Dark or Poison as gyms for sure. And Dragon seems to be a main staple of the E4 (: |
Multitype gyms would be nice. I'm getting kinda tired of the monotype gyms. :/ But that's just me.
It'd be nice if the entire E4 was monotype as well instead of just the champion. |
Normal: Whitney and Norman. Since there was a generation gap, maybe.
Fire: Blaine, Flannery. Possibly a Fire gym this gen, to keep the pattern going, lol. Water: Misty, Wallace/Juan, Wake. No Water this gen. Grass: Erika, Gardenia. No Grass this gen since we had one the Gen before. Electric: Volkner came last gen, and we've also had Surge and Wattson. No. Ground: Giovanni was the only Ground, we need another one. Rock: 3 Rock Gyms before (Brock, Roxanne, and Roark). No. Ice: Pryce and Candice, even though the latter was last gen, Ice is in the minority, so that's a maybe. Fighting: Chuck, Brawly, and Maylene. No. Psychic: Sabrina, Tate & Liza. Why not, keep the same pattern that Fire had going with Psychic as well. Dark: No Dark Gym? Definite yes. Ghost: Morty and Fantina. It's in the minority, so maybe. Steel: Bryon and Jasmine. Yes. Dragon: Clair was the only one, so yeah. Poison: Koga and Janine, who were both for Kanto. WAY PAST DUE. Bug: Only Bugsy, and that was 3 gens ago, yes. Flying: Winona and Falkner. Hmm...Generation gap, sure. Normal, Fire, Ground, Ice, Dark, Ghost, Flying, Bug, Poison, Dragon are all possibilities. |
I want to see a Normal gym, both Whitney and Norman were the hardest gym leaders I've ever faced.
|
I'm feeling like:
- Ground - Bug - Flying - Psychic - Fire - Grass - Poison - Dark Followed by this E4: - Rock/Steel - Water/Ice - Ghost/Poison - Dragon/Flying - Normal |
Well, here are a couple of ideas for the Gyms;
1st. Rock. Roland Makes sense, since all the first Gym's (Excluding Johto's) were Rock type. 2nd. Ice. Lisa Could be possible if the Gym was near a cave or mountain range of some sort. (Like current Ice Gym's) 3rd. Dark. Tyson There hasn't been a Dark Gym yet... . That could spice things up a bit. 4th. Flying. Ariel The Flying Gym in Johto wasn't great because of the lack of available Flying types. But the one in Hoenn (Wiona) was awesome. 5th. Bug. Molly They can be awesome. Srsy... 6th. Psychic. Wally (Anyone who's played R/S/E will know who he is) I found the Psychic Gym in Saffron city to be one hell of a fight. I think there should be more Psychic Gym's. And I think Wally from R/S/E should have a bigger part. 7th. Normal. Paul The Normal Gym in Hoenn was one hell of a fight (Damn Slaking...) 8th. Dragon. Samantha Possibly the most difficult Gym type by having a resistance to the four main types. For the more "Eagle Eyed" reader, you may have noticed I missed out all four main types (Water, Grass, Fire, Electricity). Which is why I chose these E4 leaders 1st. Grass. Oliver 2nd. Water. Louisa 3rd. Fire. Ted 4th. Electricity. Amphin Having those types as E4 leaders would make it one hell of a challenge, because combined there's only a few Type's that don't have a weakness to them. |
Well i would like:
1: Bug 2: Ghost 3: Dark 4: Dragon 5: Poison 6: Grass 7: Dragon 8: Ground The reason why i picked these is because om still hoping for a return to Hoen :P |
I'm thinking something along the lines of:
01. Poison 02. Ground 03. Bug 04. Psychic 05. Grass 06. Ghost 07. Dark 08. Dragon ------------ 01. Normal 02. Electric 03. Fire 04. Water Champion - Misc. No fighting as they've featured every gen in some capacity or other and I just find them really irritating :/ Same for Rock. |
17 gyms one of every type ancd the elite 4 are not type speciffic
|
I think they should get rid of monotype gyms and have other various themes.
here are some ideas- various weather gyms. a baton passer. a scary one with dark, ghost and poison. tough one consisting of rock, steel, ground and fighting. |
i would love an all rounder gym
|
I would like to see a dark type gym and a bug type gym early on in the game, or even a psychic early on, I am fed up of rock type gyms all together now lol.. Also I agree with a few others here that the gym leaders should have more prominent roles in the game. It is pretty boring that you go in the gym battle the leader and thats that.
|
I want the last Gym Leader to be Rock. His/her Pokemon would have incredible Defense. That would be cool. :D
|
I think that almost all the games are great, but I wish they would incorporate a dark gym, and maybe make a new type, but that would be hard... I agree that they should have multiple types in a gym or make one gym offensive or defensive or something. I also wish that they would have the gym leaders more incorporated in the plot, like how the elite four master normally is. I overall think that it will be exciting to know new information, and also I was wondering if anyone would tell me where to get most of the information...
|
Spoiler:
No water? :'( Though it's been used in every generation water is an important part of the world, and the pokemon world. With so many water types (and possibly even more new ones) shouldn't we have one? The ice gym leader could be water/ice. Good list, but I think that a girl should be fire ever since I battled the awesomeness that is Flannery. |
As long as the first gym isn't Rock or Ground. It should be something that all the starters are neutral towards, but honestly I just want something new. And maybe a Dragon gym that could be early on.
Or maybe they could just put in 17 (18?) Gyms, one for each type, since I get the feeling they'll do at least something to change up the formula a bit. |
I do not want Gym Leaders. I know it's, like, 90% assured that Gym Leaders and E4 will return; but, I dunno, Game Freak said we'd be seeing a "whole new thing" that even we would say: "Is this really Pokémon?"; so I'd like to see a new thing. A new system.
Now, if gyms return, I'd love it if they are not monotyped. I hate it when just with my Machop I could defeat Whitney's Miltank and Clefairy pretty easily. I want variety, kinda like the McDonalds wannabe E4 on Diamond or Blue, I said "kinda" because it'd be cool if they were based on a theme. Cute Pokémon, baby pokémon, starter pokémon, jungle Pokémon, desert Pokémon, urban Pokémon... there are lots of things that could be made! Edit: Ah! I got another idea. Maybe, you know, have a gym for all the types; and then you would get to a roulette or something and randomly get to challange a gym! It'd be cool. |

Well, I'm looking at some of the screens for B/W.
If you look at the current areas on serebii for black and white, you can get a better idea of what I'm thinking of. (I can't post links yet, because I'm a n00b, lol) Hiun City - I think that this place could hold a flying or water gym. I say this because of the bridges name thats nearby(flying), water(that its a harbor) Town 2 - Ground type. City 1 - If Hiun isn't water, this has a high chance of holding a water type gym due to the canals. Factory - The town near the factory can hold normal, poison, or electric Pokemon. Most Pokemon in shady urban areas are these types. Forest - Town near this forest can hold bug or grass. However, like in R/S/E, this could just be a forest.... Electric Cave - Town near this could hold electric... So its Flying, Water, Ground, Posion, Normal, Electric, Bug and Grass. I also see Dark being thrown in there somewhere as well, as its one of the only types that doesn't have a gym coverage. For the Elite Four, I would like to see duel types for each E4, kinda similar to what they did in Jhoto. 1.Bug/Grass 2.Psychic/Ghost or Dark 3.Rock/Ground/Steal 4.Water/Ice 5.Let this be like Gary. Have three different fights depending on your starter. I would like to see this champ hold a fight. Also, let the champion have the ability to be seen around the region for random battles, and let his/her team switch around each fight, but a level increase until you have a team stronger than reds! |
Eh puzzles, I don't mind them unless there the annoying Ice ones.
As for Gym types, I would love to see another one like Norman's in Gen III, you choose the type of trainer style you battle as you progress through to him, I also like his balanced fighting style. |
NO 1st ROCK GYM!!!
right, now: 1. Flying (there is nothing else that i havent put later on) 2. Fighting 3. Fire 4. Poison 5. Ground 6. Bug 7. Dark 8. Normal Elites: 1. Ghost 2. Electric 3. Rock 4. Grass though i can see why most early gyms were rock/grass/bug/normal because there are basically no other types you find earlygame except the starters |
I just thought of something...What if instead of a type of gym (Dark, Fire, etc) you have a species Gym?
Monkey Gym: Primape Family, Hihidaruma Family, Infernape Family, etc. That might explain the Honeycomb map in the game... Bee Gym: Vespiquen as the main Pokemon...Maybe the first gym would be Combee & Vespiquen and maybe another Bee Pokemon like Beedrill... |
i think a rock or steel gym is in desperate need. brock and olivia didn't have much to work with in their respective version but now that they've been updated and there's more rock and steel types, they could cause some damage
|
If anything, I'd like for there to be more than 8 gyms(like 14 or more) in the Isshu region so that way players can pick and choose which gyms they want to battle instead of having to battle the standard eight available. Though you would still only need 8 badges to get to the elite four.
I also completely agree with the dark gym leader addition and the terrain gym areas idea. ;D |
There won't be a dark type gym. You can quote me on that.
|
Quote:
Dark type.. PLEASE. Karen's all alone in her little world of only 2 Dark type Pokemon, and she doesn't even get to give a badge. If she's the 4th member of the elite 4, she's got to be powerful no? So why not put in another Dark member! Just so she's not alone at the Gym Leader Conferences... |
|
I'd like to see Gym Leaders with more of a back story like in the anime or a little like Claire had in GSC. I'd like to learn more about them leading up to the battle and possibly see them a little more after the battle itself. Speaking on the topic of types though, I think that there will be a Dark type gym which may possibly tie in with the Zoro's. The only Dark type leader of sorts, was Karen in the E4 again back in GSC. So it'll be interesting to see how the leaders pan out this time around.
|
I'd like to see the leaders incorporated into storylines as well and I too would like to see a dark Gym. I would NOT however like to see the dark Gym Leader have Zoroark.
