6th Gen Gym Leaders and Elite Four

I really hope they don't make any changes to the current leaders or elite four members, the fact that they're holding back on revealing the full set could slightly incidents there could be se sort of shake up. Then again these are remakes which would have no reason to change any of the main characters, the league line-up is great as it is tbh.
 
CoroCoro can't come sooner...

I just want to know about the Sootopolis gym leader. That's all I need.

Naaaaaah. Those trees are definitely for a gym where Ludicolo murders the competition. Don Juan time baby!

I have a feeling it's likely going to be Wallace, since they are following the format of R/S and not Emerald.

I hope so, too, but it'd also be nice to see Juan make appearance somewhere down the line and perhaps have a battle or two.

Either that, or maybe they could have them both as Gym Leaders, and allow us to decide which person we want to face off against? They could also have it depend on your starter choice, similarly to how they did in Black and White with Cilan, Cress, and Chili. Personally, I'd be fine with any of these two options!
 
I hope that the one who isn't chosen shows up as a high-level Contest opponent, which seems to fit both of their personalities and I can't see a reason not to. I honestly don't have that much of a preference over the choice, but if I had to choose I'd go with Wallace for the sake of staying closer to the originals.
 
Maybe contests will be like in the PWT where persons from various regions announce their story. Like other version moms, Daisy Oak, Erika, what's his face from Heart home. DLC for other opponents. Lady Astrid? Yourself?

Wonder, if Amie not in ORAS, going into contests with an eevee is how we Sylveon.
 
I hope they add some new people. it's too bad they dont make Wally Champion, I like Wallace though he was my favorite Hoenn Gym leader.

Pokemon Amie was already revealed to be retained, so they'll likely keep the same evolution method for Sylveon. They have however confirmed Feebas to revolve back to its original evolution method (maxed Beauty) while the Prism Scale is only used in games where Contests don't exist.
 
I'd say, Wallace as Gym leader pre-game, and Juan will be the leader post-game and you'll be able to challenge all the Gyms again, maybe? :P
 
That does sound like a good plan, yes!

However, what would be even better, I believe, is if they were both challenge-able at any time, similarly to the idea I've stated before. None of this is too important, though; I'm not sure about others, but as long as they're both included in-game in one form or another, personally, I would be pretty happy. Usually, I don't exactly feel that taking things away from older games in remakes is a good idea.

If they do that then perhaps Wallace will be the champion. Or perhaps Juan could be the eighth gym leader, and after we defeat Steven we discover that Steven is actually no longer the true champion (similar to how in RGBYFrLg when you defeat Lance (the last of the E4) he says congrats in becoming champion, only to add that we would be if someone (Green/Blue) hadn't beated us to it), but Wallace...
 
I hope not. I hate him. Screw you, Double Team Kingdra.

I wish Emerald remains a non-canon dystopia and Juan is written out of existence.

Besides, him sharing his ace with Clair isn't cool at all. Clair came first.
 
I think the whole Juan/Wallace situation is one of the reasons why they're holding off from revealing the remaining leaders. I'm pretty sure there will be some sort of situation which involves both of them being in the games, both Juan and Wallace appeared in the PWT for B2W2 iirc.
 
Well Giovanni also appeared at the PWT despite not being a gym leader anymore, plus in Emerald (irc) they said Juan was the former Gym leader who came back from retirement to fill Wallace's spot, or that may have been Pokémon Special xD.

Well we did have Giovanni return in an event in HGSS, so anything could happen. Either way I do think that we will see Juan in some sort of role, whether that be as a Gym Leader or as something different. ;p
 
Wally as Champion would be pretty cool, but I don't believe it's actually going to happen. Had ORAS taken place at some point in future (five or so years after original RSE events), then it might have been a possibility, but unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be the case. =(
