    • Lt. Surge's was really crap honestly. I am pretty sure those switches are purely random, no challenge in that, just luck.

    As for the rest, I think they're actually a good twist to the trainer-battle experience, even though I like battling too.

    • WHA?! I love them! I wish there were more puzzles throughout the game! I wouldn't be so hardpressed to say something like "Yeah I just wanna fight the damn trainers and leader and get out of there" if the battles weren't so freakin easy. The puzzles are harder than the actual battles. They actually make you think, rather than just hitting the same button on the same move over and over and OHKO-ing pretty much every opponent.

    I Like those puzzles because they exercise the mind and yes I do agree that they do get annoying.

    I like some of the puzzles, like Koga's or Blaine's. Those weren't so hard. But I hate the luck ones like Sabrina's or Lt. Surge's that are completely random- I have terrible luck with those. >.<

    • The only ones that really got me were Lt. Surge in RBY, Sabrina (until I got pissed off and looked up a map online), and the 8th gym in RSE, that took me forever. I had to copy the thing down on a piece of graph paper, and then with a pencil I drew the path until I finally got it.

    But I don't hate them, I like having some sort of puzzle in the gyms. They r makez me feelz smartz.

    • id say yes and no, the only real one that PISSED ME OFF! was the lt surge one in pokemon rby, where you hit one switch and had to pick the other one out of like twenty other garbage cans, and if you picked wrong it reset and the first switch moved to another can! BAH!

    The only good puzzle was the shell moving puzzle in Captain Crunch's gym from the 9th game, Pokemon: Oak Chronicles.

    Remember having to flip all those cards over just so you could fight his lv 89 Weepinbell and lose miserably?

    Fun fun times, man I havent played that game in years. *grabs old Megadrive*

    They're fine. People who want to do the puzzles can do them, and many who can't can just check a walkthrough. Still, I like them because they kind of take your mind off the battling a little, which can be refreshing.

    Some say that the gym puzzles are fun, but to be honest with everyone of you, I hate them. It is so annoying to have to solve them and then when you leave to go heal or something you have to do the puzzles all over again. The ones like Rustborough and Eterna gyms I like 'cause you don't have to solve a puzzle to get to the gym leader.
