Gym & Gym Leaders Discussion
So we know about two gym leaders so far:

Well Aloe is rumored to be steel from what I read from the rumor thread. She's also rumored to be water and grass.
Pokebeach: Quote:

Aloe seems like she would be Grass, imo, because Aloe is a flower/plant thing.
|
so people who dont know who she is know who she is.
I think that raising the issue of questioning the presentation of such things is more racist than presenting them. if you draw attention to it, more people are going to complain. Hence. ferme bouche. I think Dento will be Bug and that aloe will be grass (aloe vera) :D |
Aloe is also an african plant, possibly referring to her ethnicity. I think she's either rock or steel based on the PokeBeach article (also posted a few posts above me)

I think she's a grass-type. I dunno why. It seems like it. Since her name means African-flower. (Where did I read that again?) |

Yeah it does, you probably read it in the Aloe thread :) |
I'm pretty surprised Dento is the first gym leader you'll face in the games. At least we know a bit what role he plays in the games, though. Shall be interesting though the older protagonist(s) will be going against a gym leader younger than you (this is assuming Dento is 10/11 if going by the anime). As for Aloe, already stated it's good her being gym leader shed some light on what her role will be in the games.
|
From the moment I saw dento in the anime preview I knew/thought he was a gym leader.
Prob. because of the lamp going on. and him being all smug after that. the preview |
Dento is my fav anime character, I will be piiiissed if he is bug, but yeah Aloe will definetly be grass, and don't forget the rumored electric gym in the amusement park
|
Just saying, we still need a Dark type gym leader....
I had a feeling that since aloe and dento were released so early they'd be early gym leaders/early encounters. |
Thats cool that Dento is the first gym leader,I was hoping he was going to have some part in the game :)
and Aloe being the second gym leader is great news too. I think Dento is going to be Bug or Ground and Aloe might be Grass. |
Aloe isnt dressed for Grass types, plus her outfit doesnt hint at grass like all the other grass users, shes dark typed :)
Dento.... Grass,or Bug :) if hes the first, then ill go YES! no more Rock type first XD Quote:
i know real life bugs are disgustin, totally epic fail creations, but bug pokemon are awesome :) |

Im sorry, just what i first thought. |
For the love of god, there better be a Dark-type gym leader. :cer_pissed:
|
Hmmm, this is actually quite interesting since this is the first gym leader of a region to travel with Ash since the first generation. Don't forget that they said that the games will have all new original Pokemon instead of rehashings old ones so I have high hopes for this generation. As for the types I believe Dento will be either a Normal or Dark type Gym Leader. If he's the 1st Gym Leader I don't think they'd do something so awesome as a rollercoaster theme park gym at the beginning of the game.
As for Aloe, most likely grass or rock, mostly grass. |
It would be horrible if she was a Dark type Gym Leader.
js I think she'll be grass. :3 |
If Dento is first, would it make sense for him to be a rock or steel type user? It seems that most of the games have started with a gym type that is resistant to normal-type attacks.
|
Hmmm by the looks of Aloes outfit, she seems to me like a normal type trainer, but grass type looks promising too. I actually wouldnt like to see a dark type gym :P
As for Dento, he seems to be a waiter or something so that could hint to his type |
I think that Dento will be a bug type gym and that he has that new cute kurumiru on his team ;p
|
Her name obviously suggests she is a grass type gym leader, but she isn't dressed/looks like one and the city Shippou doesn't sou)nd like a very grass loving place (or is that the Jap name still? If so what does it mean? Compared to all the previous Grass Gymleaders. She could possibly be steel, as she looks like a person who would train steel pokemon.
|
You can't always go with a city's environments for gym types. Celadon City may have been green but it was an urban area. Eterna City wasn't very green at all. It's only reference to grass was really the nearby forest. Erika doesn't "look" like a Grass-user. The idea of a Grass Gym for her was centered around the Japanese art of flower arranging. For all we know Aloe could work in a greenhouse.
And in Japan, many important Pokemon characters are named after plants. I think Dento will be a Normal leader or Bug, because of his hair color and clothing accents. As for Aloe... I'd love a Grass Gym Leader, but I'm not so sure that's her signature type. |
Dento could be a normal type, and I'm guessing Aloe is a grass type because of her name.

Like the grass gym leaders mostly look greenish or have gardening clothes on. Water gym leaders have swimsuits on. Fighting gym leaders are bulky or stand in a fighting pose. etc. Aloe could be anything. As for Dento... I think normal/ or psychic. |
My vote with Dento is going to be normal/ psychic. oAo
I cannot see him using a bug type... |
