The picture I posted earlier in this thread pretty much confirms it.

Well, if you watched the preview for Best Wishes it looks like Yanappu is his signature Pokémon. So i'm going with grass for Dento. Though that concerns me about Aloe's type since people have been saying that she'd be a grass type gym leader as well.

MistahDude August 26th, 2010 3:44 PM

Dento could still be Fire/Grass/Water. We only know one of his pokemon. We have more evidence for a gym with him having a Grass pokemon, a Fire pokemon and a Water pokemon.

For Dento being a Grass Leader:
- He has Yanappu
- He is green

For Dento having one Fire, one Water and one Grass type
- In Game his puzzle has to do with picking between the three types to solve questions
- He is the First Leader, which would be great for introducing types to new players. Game Freak loves making the game good for new players
- His gym badge is made up of three stones, Red, Blue and Green.

Just because Dento has a Grass pokemon doesnt mean he is a grass leader. Heck this is only one of his pokemon. You cannot just jump to conclusions using old ways of thinking. Pokemon is changing and a gym with no real set type is bound to happen early in game eventually.

For all we know he could be a completely mixed gym leader.
I would prefer mixed instead of a mono-type as it usually is. D:
Something a tad less predictable than Fire/Water/Grass as well would be amazing.

I'm going to agree with some of the few who said that may as well just be Aloe's name even if it is grass related. Dento and Yanappu make great partners as I see the picture of the two. :)
I'd make a guess that Aloe would be a fire or rock type gym leader. Her dark clothing/reddish look gives me that prediction.

WindBlows August 26th, 2010 3:58 PM

Aloe is ground or rock, lol.

MistahDude August 26th, 2010 5:51 PM

You wouldn't believe how many Gym Leaders have plant names. Even the ones that aren't grass or poison type.

Dento is a sommelier (a wine steward for Pokemon? lol). Well, either way, wine is made from grapes which grow on vines. We all remember the ever-crappy Vine Whip move, right?

Not to mention Dento is specifically labeled Pokemon Sommelier, and sommeliers do compare different types of wines and pair them up with the right foods...

Haza August 26th, 2010 9:04 PM

Also with the sommelier thing, it could have a lot to do with Pokemon-Types, and what goes well against what. His gym focuses on those types of questions before you can battle him also. Instead of wine types it's Pokemon-Types, but I still think he will be a Grass-Type trainer.

That leads me more into thinking he's mixed. If Pokemon Sommelier does indicate that he knows his types well and matches them up similar to how sommelier's do with wine, then maybe his AI in-game will match a Pokemon of his team to yours that will have the advantage to yours, or do normal damage at the least. Which could ultimately lead to him switching out in battle too. <3


OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 26th, 2010 9:22 PM

Well I see I am thinking pure grass at this poing but he could be multi which would be cool, I wonder if he will have the monkey in our first battle too...

Ho-Oh August 27th, 2010 4:43 AM

If he has more than one type then what does that mean for the other gyms? Cramming a few types into each gym so they're all covered? D: Let's think of badges, too... because they need to represent something, so... idk :(

Precious Tears August 27th, 2010 8:47 AM

Lotta people keep sayin. Aloe's Grass-type and dento's Bug-type...
But could be the other way round :/

According to the anime, Dento have the "Grass Monkey"... (I know anime is not a reliable source for speculating but...)
And as for Aloe... Most of the people in thread said her looks is just like a gardener,,,
but a gardener doesn't mean they are 100% Grass-type user, she could be also a Bug-type expert... In the real world, there are insects lurking in gardens or greenhouses... :/

Actually most said she looks like a cook :P
Well that was back then, and this is now, I think Aloe will be Fire now...

Assault August 27th, 2010 11:50 AM

I voted Dento. Aloe is fat.

If she's a cook.. Then Steel or Fire would be appropiate.
But I guess Rock-type's a possibility too, judging by the city of her Gym...

Take a closer look at Aloe's artwork if you must. She isn't fat at all, not even close. :| It's only her clothes being brought out so much and being large in size that gives Aloe the impression she is fat. And even if she was fat, so what? Don't judge someone because of that - it's pretty rude to others. :\

I prefer Dento though. Given a cool design and an interesting personality in the anime, I just naturally have a liking to him. Not to mention, being a Grass-type Gym Leader for the first gym is really a plus and change from the traditional Rock-type Gym.

Yeah fat=/= ugly...

I also think Dento's Grass-type.. But at the sametime it feels strange to me...
I mean they can be other types but not Fire, Water or Grass... I dunno...

Also it is said the dark place with roller coaster is "Electric-type Gym"... Roller coasters do use electricity but the color of the "Gym" just doesn't feels right to be Electric-type... It's more like a Dark-type, Ghost-type or even Psychic but definately not Electric... Maybe because the previous Electric type Gyms are mainly yellow in color so I just have that feeling... Moreover it's not proven a Gym yet(?)

If you look at the neon light on surface, well yes it represents Electric-type. But in depth I think neon lights are related to late night, mostly neon lights are used at night... They can also mean rave or party which can also be Electric or Dark... Urrr...

And a Water-type Gym and Water Champion, though only exclusive on Emerald...
Coincidentally both Gyms are the strongest Gym in their respective regions.

Calder August 27th, 2010 10:22 PM

I think Dento will have 3 Pokemon Yanappu, a fire and a water type. But apparently his team focus is on Solarbeam...

Darksun August 28th, 2010 1:00 AM

I voted for Dento because his art is awesome and I don't know much about Aloe. :3

I think Dento will be either a Grass-type leader or a mixed-type kind of leader (seeing his badge and all). As for Aloe, I think she'll either be a Fire-type leader or also a mixed-type kind of leader. We'll just have to wait and see.

Trace1992 August 28th, 2010 1:09 AM

dento is just a better version of brock basically haha

Darksun August 28th, 2010 1:10 AM

Why? His only resemblance to Brock is that he's also the first Gym Leader. :p

Wow then that makes 2 Gym with no specific type. If all 8 Gyms are like that in Isshu, wow I'm gonna be doomed... T^T

Darksun August 28th, 2010 5:44 AM

^ Lol. :3 I just don't see how Dento could be the only mixed-type leader. Maybe if he's sort of an introduction for the new players to learn a little bit about the games? Dunno.

crystal286 August 28th, 2010 10:27 AM

(hi I'm new here.) Doesn't Dento have a grass type monkey pokemon? He could be grass. Also, Aloe looks like a fire type person but also a grass, and normal at the same time but only one of the types could be it. She doesn't look like a steel or a dark type. She looks like a chef, yes, but cooking involves fire. So its a chance (a very low, low chance) that she'll be a fire type. But her name is Aloe which means she could also be a grass type. What do you guys think?

I voted on aloe because I don't care if they're ugly or fat. who cares? Anyway, why don't we get more infomation about this game on lots of websites with info on pokemon black and white gym leaders and vote on whats NOT their type? Then, after we all voted some types out what they're not gonna be, we have only one type left that they might be.

I don't think we will get all mix this generation.

austy14 August 28th, 2010 3:22 PM

Well, Dento is grass and first gym leader. The grass starter is always first in the region dex (with the exception of Victini) and then Aloe is second gym leader, so she could be fire type cus fire starter family is always right after grass and she looks like a cook (fire is also super-effective to grass, you know how the pattern goes in Kanto & Johto). Then the third gym could be water. third family in Pokedx and super-effective to fire. Just a guess :3

No way... If they are all mix it is not fun at all...

There is a honeycomb like/sticky honeys you can go through Gym... Huge chance that is Bug Type... Maybe that is Aloe's Gym? Somehow it doesn't match with Dento's Gym(the interior)...

Poison, Dragon, Dark, Ground... These types doesn't have lotta Gym(zero in Dark-type's case), from the previous four regions... I hope at least one of them'll have a Gym...

I hope it isn't dark...since in a way, the last gym is the conclusion to the storyline (well, tightening up loose ends, or something along those lines), and if it ended on dark, wouldn't that mean the storyline game ends on a negative rather than a positive note? (This is considering that dark is actually a negative, instead of a positive). Then again, that's just how I see it.

Lol well Gen 1 ended with you fighting a Mafia leader, and defeating him, you could see defeating the Dark type in the same light as that :)

At the same time, the last gym is supposed to be like the light at the end of the road, and a dark type is the complete opposite... Though I'm not sure how Giovanni fits in. Although, ground... earth... possibly something about holding the earth. Though, where do the E4 come in? Then again, no one says Pokemon has to be a big metaphor XD;

Harumi Fujyoshi August 29th, 2010 12:17 AM

I actually kinda wished for Dento to be Dark-type :/

He reminds of Apollo Justice, for some reason, btw XD

Darksun August 29th, 2010 1:18 AM

Do you guys think they'll reveal anything about the gyms in the next CoroCoro? Or maybe in one of the episodes of Pokemon Sunday before the release?

Dento's gym look really different in the anime, but what gym doesn't do that. :3

Kanto_Johto August 29th, 2010 4:51 AM

How has everyone come to the conclusion that Dento will have a Grass, Water and Fire type? I've seen absolutely nothing to support this so far.

- By the Pokemon he owns in anime.
- His dressing style, 90% of Gym Leaders' outfit are related to their type.
- His Gym's interior designs.

To me that would just be thinking to much into it. Dark-type Pokémon aren't really expressed as a negative in the games nor the anime. :\ If that were the case, then I'm sure they would have been received differently as far as prospective goes. So, to me I wouldn't mind if the 8th Gym Leader was a Dark-type or not. If anything, you can think of it as a way of knocking down the negative at the end of the road to only reach your final destination where the real light is. But again, maybe that's just thinking too much into it.

@Darksun
Dento's gym looks different in the games too though. They don't look like traditional gyms anymore. Or at least I think they're different if I'm looking at the right image as inside of his gym looks like it's within the previously seen castle.

@Kanto_Johto
As for Dento's typing. Based on his gym badge, I can see it possibly being a Fire/Water/Grass gym - Yanappu being his star Pokémon though.

The honeycomb thing was actually a smith or forge and its in the top left part of the map the opposite end of where you start in the game so it being 2nd gym is really unlikely...Dark being the 8th gym is just as bad as Giovanni and its not the end of the game... No one beats the 8th gym leader and turns off the game thinking everything is over...

Last time I checked, he has green hair and is dressed as a waitor. This presents him as a Fire. Water Grass type trainer how?

I haven't seen the inside of his Gym though. Anyone got a picture?

Yeah and I'm the troll lol Dento's badge is basely Green, Red and Blue spheres in a line... the Gym is asking questions about typing "Grass is weak to ___. Water or Fire?" also the Green hair would represent Grass the food he serves as Fire and the drink he would serve as Water if you want to look at it like that o.o

Uh, I wasn't trolling? I honestly can't see why people have assumed that. Mind you, I haven't actually seen his badge yet. Would anyone care to post a picture of the badge/the Gym interior?

Edit: Oh, it's you. I should have figured as such. Thanks for the input anyways.

When I saw it, I didn't thing of fire-water-grass, I thought "hey it has ruby, saphire and emerald!" I took it as homeage to hoenn, as I think a lot of things will in Isshu.

I watched the gameplay video... The honeycomb place had the BGMof Gym, infact the sound is strikingly similar to Hg/Ss's Gym BGM... In the history of Pokemon only Lorelei's Room in RBY(and its remakes) used that theme... But I agree your point that the honeycome place can not be the second Gym...

Actually the picture of his Gym are quite blurry/dark... But you could check the pages in this thread.. I believe there's a oone or two laying here somewhere... :\

austy14 August 29th, 2010 1:12 PM



I found this on some serebii forum... havent seen it anywhere else. Looks like a gym to me! Or some elite cave, like cerulean cave, and there's some pokemon in it. But, it appears in a route... It would be cool if a couple gym were out of the way in a mountain or forest or on a route rather than always in a city. I also see bel in the bottom...

WarpstarX August 29th, 2010 1:31 PM

I think Dento is Grass & Aloe is Steel, think about maybe Aloe is supposed to sound like Alloy (kind of a stretch but Dento does have Yanapuu a grass type.)

Actually there are buildings East of that cave so it could be in a town for all we know, though that pic doesn't show the buildings but there are some :)

Looks like a Route more than a city or town :\ BTW I saw Belle's hat :P Speaking of Belle, for some reason I don;t think she's gonna be a strong rival... She's too cute to be strong... It's obvious that Cheren's stronger... What I meant is, at least make Belle more stronger, at least stronger that your average out there...

It's obvious that Cheren's stronger... What I meant is, at least make Belle more stronger, at least stronger that your average out there...

Well I think they are going for Belle being the Clumsy type of Rival due to her Battle sprite movements :P
It's a town or a route with Houses in it which isn't so far fetch as we have had those before...

You guys are moving away from the topic of gym leaders and gyms. Stay on-topic.

Actually we are speculating whether the Cave in a route or Town could be a Gym or not so we are still on topic in a way :)

Ho-Oh August 29th, 2010 4:37 PM

Mhmm but you started discussing Belle, plus you guys mentioned whether the location was a route or not. Stick to the discussion about gyms/gym leaders otherwise there will be consequences.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 29th, 2010 4:41 PM

Well the Honeycomb and that Cave seem to me like Gyms along with the Roller coaster and the one with the color circle titles so that would be 4 plus Aloe and Dento making six if we are right, so we have yet to see too more :)

Cave + Honeycomb Forge + Roller coaster = 4? Thats 3 whats the 4th? Thats 5 total

Planetes. August 29th, 2010 5:34 PM

do you guys mean the cave with the magnetic rocks? I always thought that was where Zekrom was

Gulpin August 29th, 2010 5:38 PM

I believe that Aloe is probably a Grass leader, solely based on her name. However, for Dento I am not too sure what type he may specialize in. I hope that this generation there are gym leaders with two main types. (Like I want Aloe to be Rock/Grass.)

Ah it was the one with the colors is the one that I forgot to put, also the Castle is the same as Dento's place though the seventh is that place with the rings if it is a Gym so it's seven not six or five :P

Planetes. August 29th, 2010 6:22 PM

Wow Sakrey has a really keen eye. Also I'm guessing Dento is Poly Grass/Fire/Water. With Yanappu being his grass type, if not then he's pure grass.

FalseDestiny August 29th, 2010 7:51 PM

Seeing as Dento has the Broccoli monkey in the anime, it is likely that he's going to be a Grass gym leader, or possibly the Fire-Water-Grass leader, with 3 pokemon. Either way, we know he's at least grass now.

Unless of course Nintendo is pulling a Volkner in Diamond and Pearl, who has like, no Electric types.

Ugh, I hope they don't do that again. I hated how the leaders just had random Pokemon (especially Flint, though E4, with 2 Fire Pokemon).

crystal286 August 30th, 2010 2:14 PM

uh... I just saw a video from a website showing Dento's gym right now and his gym looks like a castle like place... What kind of pokemon is in a castle like place? I didn't get a good look of aloe's gym though... That sucks. I THINK dento's gym looks like a castle. I saw it but you should look for websites that show his gym. Sorry! I forgot which website I went on to get the information! But if I find it again, I'll tell.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 30th, 2010 2:57 PM

Yeah the castle is his gym supposedly, I wonder how many rooms are in it?

Calder August 30th, 2010 3:41 PM

His gym is basically a screen showing for example a leaf representing Grass and a red, blue and green tile to step on its strength or weakness or whatever until you get to him. Very very basic.

Well I wasn't sure if you were talking about another gym...plus why the panels...so you think or know that the panels are opinions, I thought it was a different gym...
Yeah lots of Games I have played are...

It could be like Blaine's original gym. Where you answer a question ,and get it wrong you have a battle with a junior trainer and get it right you don't have to battle.

That's what I think, so why the panels :/?

I dunno if anyone's seen this yet but I decided to post it just in case.
Pokejungle posted videos earlier, one of them showing Dento's gym badge :

http://i52.*.com/6fpa29.png

Everyone who was saying he has Fire, Grass, and Water types... I think you may be right.. O_O;


Devil Flamingo August 31st, 2010 9:43 PM

Well, I'm starting to think that gyms in Isshu run a little different (maybe they're two-typed?)

I mean, Dento seems like a Grass type trainer to me, given his green eyes, hair, attire, what I know of his personality, and the fact that he has that broccoli monkey Pokemon in the anime, lol. But that badge doesn't look very grass-ish to me, so now I don't know what to think.

And as for Aloe, I'm not so sure that she's a Grass GL just because of her name. I'll need to see more information, I guess, before I can make a fair guess. :>

solarowl August 31st, 2010 9:58 PM

i believe dento is grass/water/fire
and as for aloe im not that sure but i hope shes dark but its not likely

This. I think he's tri-type also now. I was wrong xD I thought he was only Grass.

Now everyone, feast your eyes on these:
http://pokejungle.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/bw_badges-300x227.jpg
The second is Aloe. The third is a heart o_O The fourth, thunderbolt? Electric gym perhaps?

feast your eyes again, cause behind dento is a guy with red and one with blue hair.
3 gym leaders. dento being grass type the others fire and water.

Dento = Green Hair.
Other guy 1 = Red Hair
Other guy 2 = Blue Hair
Gym Badge containing the colors Green/Red/Blue
Gym puzzle = questions about pokemon types grass, fire, water.
mmmmmmmhhhhhh, will this be a Grass/Fire/Water Gym?! :P

Oooo that's a nice catch! But I thought there was only supposed to be one Gym Leader..? Maybe this is the first time we experience a triple battle? <33 With Dento and those other two? Each holding an appropriate type to their hair color? If this is the case I bet Dento's Yanappu holds the highest level out of the three, to still ensure his Gym Leader title.


Calder September 1st, 2010 11:42 AM

or it could be that Dento is Grass and the Leader but you fight the other 2 first? still we said it was mixed because of that badge we saw it before today. It wasn't based of of nothing in the past and now you guys know what we meant... Aloe appears to have a gym in a library of sorts where you answer a question (we knew that for awhile) and the librarian aid will battle you if your wrong. Maybe Aloe is a librarian? Also maybe the 3rd gym is Psychic or based on love and the 4th is Electric (Which I hoped for :D)

This sums up what I was thinking.

With three Gym Leaders, if that's the case, each specializing in Fire, Water, and Grass, then it's possible this can be our first experience in Triple Battles. The only thing that has me on edge about it is, wouldn't it be quite early to take on triple battles? I mean it's more complex than double battles for sure, but still, on the first gym already? I guess if that's how it is, then it may just be the main challenge of the gym - besides being able to have an advantage against our starting Pokémon.

Either way, I can still see Dento having the stronger Pokémon (Yanappu) seeing as how he is more focused upon than the other too. On a bright side, it does explain why he has green hair considering the other two. n_n;

rocky505 September 1st, 2010 12:54 PM

Maybe it is like this. Once you beat one of the three guys you get a piece of the badge (3 pieces) beat the red guy get the red piece etc. Or it could just be a triple battle.

I was thinking the same thing, I think that in the anime they will take over after Dento goes with Ash too...
I think Dento is the strongest or the oldest, or Youngest and is thus in the Middle.

abood321 September 1st, 2010 1:37 PM

Maybe you are right the first gym type fire/water/grass.
but what about the second gym type?

well the second gym badge is a heart that makes me think Poison, or Psychic, as poison affects life, and some see Psychic as the link of hearts, also due to the last two heart shape badges being Poison (Koga/Janine) and Psychic (Liza and Tate). I just noticed that if that third badge is a heart that all the odd gen's have introduced a gym with a heart badge...

rocky505 September 1st, 2010 1:45 PM

Dento- Yanappu
red guy- Hihidaruma or darumakka
blue guy- IDK but maybe a water type primate pokemon

EDIT: that is the 3rd badge that is a heart MRAS. the second one is a bar shape(Steel?)

A triple battle in the first gym is way too early.
Some people would still have only one pokemon, so i'll guess you fight one at a time.
Liz&Tate were gym 7, by that time you at least needed a pokemon for cut & surf so the player would at least have two pokemon.

Actually I have three pokemon by the time I get to the first gym...though I know not everyone does...
Though they could tell you that they won't let you challenge them until you get three pokemon...

You never know. They could make the journey to Dento's gym a lot further than the first gyms were in the past, therefore giving more time to train and more time to catch Pokemon. It's also not impossible to woop three Pokemon with only one especially leveled Pokemon. You shouldn't close off the triple battle theory just yet only because of past experience. :3 It's possible you battle one at a time, but that's so boring. ;~;


Surmonter September 1st, 2010 2:27 PM

I hope they bring in Dual-typed gyms. I noticed the E4 is dual typed rumor for the most part.

It's boring fighting grass after grass after grass. How about some action! Throw out a Yanappu, then an Onix! GIVE US A CHALLENGE!
