So, nobody's gonna say it?

Fine, I'll go:

How the hell does the FIRST Gym Leader have a Pokemon with Solarbeam? That's one of the most powerful Grass type Manouvers.

He has solarbeam in the anime, no one said he had it in the game. But I see where you're coming from... If in game he does too, let's hope he doesn't have sunny day.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 20th, 2010 1:58 PM

Well I don't think he will have solar beam in game, Gardenia had a Roserade that knew Weather ball...and the in game Gardenia didn't have a Roserade until the rematch :)

I agree.
The games and anime are different so it will be different.

Dento might be grass after all if he has the monkey like Pokebeach implied...They implied that Victini might have been a legend and they were right, I wonder if they might be right this time...

Perriechu August 21st, 2010 4:52 PM

Im sticking with my Idea of Aloe being a Fire type gym leader x3
I think Dento will be Grass/Bug hopefully Grass :x only cause Bugs are annoying and are weak...some are strong but meh...
In the Anime he is commanding Solarbeam which could mean many possibilities,
Rock/Grass type Pokemon that someone said... Lileep springs to mind but no old Pokemon are in the Isshu dex.
Grass ... Duh >.<
Bug ... somekind of Bug/Grass Pokemon

Off Topic : If there are no old Pokemon in the new dex, this means that there are no new Eevee's
Since Eevee is not in the dex until National...

I think Dento is leaning towards Grass, or Rock at this point :)
Offtopic: Well they did that with Glaceon and Leafeon in gen 4...

Ho-Oh August 21st, 2010 11:15 PM

Yeah... after that new monkey, I'm starting to think that it will be Dento's and he will be a grass leader. No problem with that though, breaking the tradition of starting with rock would be nice (hopefully, if he is the first gym leader).

It was confirmed he was the first gym leader :), Yeah he most likely is Grass :D!

Ho-Oh August 21st, 2010 11:22 PM

It is? ...must've slipped my mind.

Well then yeah, I fully support him being grass, since... besides seeing a rock-type gym, it could've been someone else's gym that they visited as a team.

Yeah it is, look at the first post in this thread :)
It could be, did Erika had tree's in her gym I forget...
Wait didn't some of the gym leaders have rocks in their gym's despite not being Rock anyways, besides Rock gym leaders usually have huge rocks...

Angelroid August 21st, 2010 11:39 PM

Dento could be a Grass or Poison.
Aloe could be Psychic or Ghost.

Silver25 August 22nd, 2010 1:06 AM

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but an interesting thing to notice is that during the gym battle vs Dento scene in the latest trailer, it appears as though he allows kids (from the town or city possibly?) to watch the matches from a seating area on the 2nd floor of the gym. Perhaps he takes on the role of teaching them about Pokemon as we have seen some gym leaders do in the past.

Note: there is at least 1 other kid next to the one circled in the picture.

I dunno, that looks like a cheerleader to me.
It looks like she has one pink and one blue pom pom at rest position in front of her.

It's not very clear in that picture but if you watch the preview on Pokebeach, from what I can see it is a boy and looks like he and the other kid are watching to learn rather than cheer. But that's just me.

I watched but the other "kid" looks like they have pom poms too.
It is too blurry to tell for sure since they are in the background. XD;
But one thing is for sure, Dento acts very much like a pretty-boy type, so I don't doubt the existence of cheerleaders.


OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 22nd, 2010 2:13 PM

Now if only we could get a better idea of what type Aloe is...

Shnappy August 22nd, 2010 4:58 PM

Well, the word "Dento" is a prefix. It's a variation of the word "Denti", and "Denti" means:

"a combining form meaning “tooth,” used in the formation of compound words: dentiform."

Now I can't say this means anything, but I just thought I'd say that.

I personally believe that Dento's name is the Japanese variation of the word dent.
I never realized he was a waiter until now.. I kinda thought he was a butler, or he was in a tuxedo.
.. Until I saw the apron anyway.


OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 22nd, 2010 5:33 PM

It's interesting last gen we got the Butler class and now we get the Baker class...I expect those two classes to show up a lot in Dento and Aloe's gyms

It would be cool! But a little off-topic, I don't recall seeing butler/waiter trainers anywhere outside of battle frontier.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire August 22nd, 2010 7:19 PM

I hope that the other trainers in the gym are a challenge at least...

orange discontent August 22nd, 2010 7:44 PM

Dento's not a waiter, he's a sommelier... :/

Dento's anime gym is definitely not his gym in-game since, well, CoroCoro leaks show otherwise. Besides, wouldn't it be kind of silly to battle in a high-class restaurant? Who says he's not using a generic gym in the anime? That explains the rocks, at least.

So a tooth based gym? Or a dinosaur based gym!

...I'm sticking with him being grass. :x
