Well the fact is that Skyla's Pokemon aren't overly strong in the first place in comparison to Elesa's, actually. I don't think they have the power to take them down without being affected by Elesa's Volt Switch. :(
 
Skyla! Definitely. I like flying types better than electric ones so maybe I'm a bit biased, but I also like Skyla's design better, though I wish she would have had more of a part in the storyline (Elesa convinced Bianca's dad to let her continue, though that wasn't really a big part it just made her seem more of a character and less of a standard gym leader). Like maybe have her fly you in a plane to some island you can't normally get to alone, like maybe it could have been the Genesect event? idk, it would have been cool.

Elesa would win IMO, her Pokemon don't only have the advantage but they're fast too (as are flying types, but still... her freakin' Emolgas).
 
Sorry but I vote for Elesa because I like her and Electric type. Of course I like Skyla too but against Elesa's team, she's got a big disadvantage especially with her Swanna 4x weakness to electric attack. In anime, maybe Skyla can turn out to win the battle if she battle against Elesa but there's no way she can beat Elesa in the game. Beside, 2 Emolgas can be really annoying to Skyla's team with their Volt Switch.

Yeah I think you should've at least got some time in a plane, especially after her whole "let's go to the top of this Litwick-filled tower" thing. I get that we have to explore it but STILL you can explore it later, sooo a plane ride then would've been nice. But at least she has SOME personality, as seen by how she did care etc.
 
I definitely like Elesa better than Skyla in terms of design. Though I do believe Skyla has better variety in Pokémon - why did Elesa have to be given two Emolga? One wasn't enough? :( I think both were given cute roles in the storyline too, with Elesa helping Bianca further her journey by convincing her dad to let go. Skyla's role wasn't that important, but better than just being in her gym ready to battle.

As for a battle between the two? Well Elesa's definitely the automatic win here! Those three birds have no story to tell. The only strategy Skyla could try to do is well I guess use fly a bunch of times to have Elesa's electric type moves miss. lol I don't know. :( Poor birds!
 
I went with Skyla. Elesa's team was fairly boring with the double Emolga, and I liked how Skyla's team had a bit of variation with the Water- and Psychic-typings thrown in there. Fairly easy to defeat, but still. Just made it more interesting.
 
If that had equally leveled pokemon, there is no way that Skyla could win but if she out leveled Elesa its very possible :)
 
Skyla has been chosen as the fan favourite - but continue discussing who you think could win/how Skyla could win/how Elesa could win, and so on, if you'd like. n_n
 
Noooo! The type advantage loses the poll! WHAT WILL WE DO?!?

*ahem*

Interesting reasons in the choices.

There's isn't a high level difference between Skyla and Elesa.

Skyla has as best pokemon one Water/Fly. So, they take x4 in front of electric.

I prefer Skyla character's but she has about 0-2 % chance(s) to win this fight.


Dont forget the attack of Emolga (I don't know its English name) It's an attack where the pokemon strikes and go back with change to another. Elesa has a couple of Emolga and she love to use this attack...
