5th Gen [Spoiler]New Gyms? Gym Speculation

Not open for further replies.
Dont forget my pokemon dunsparse appearing in the wild
 
Speaking of Homika...

Nintendo of America's 'Nintendo Direct' Conference just ended, shoing off about 30 seconds to a minute of gameplay. Among them was the offical US name for the Poison-type Gym Leader.

It's Roxie. Seems to be a play at what she does, and that's play guitar. She also has a band and her gym leader platform is a rock band stage. Make of that if you will.

Roxie? What about poor Roxanne's pet name?

Well, I was thinking that Roxie sounds similar to "toxic", which is related to her type specialty and is incidentally the name of the badge (at least in Japanese) she gives out as well.

Apparently we get to face Unova Leaders in the World Tournament. And we get to face Brycen as well woot woot!

So far it looks like this.
Drayden: Haxorus, Altaria & Druddigon
Brycen: Cryogonal, Dewgong & Vanilluxe
Shizui: Jellicent, Mantine, Wailord

Way rematches in some form ^_^

Kind of sad that they got rid of Brycen's Beartic :(
 
Haseyo said:
Yeah I would do without Vanilluxe and use Beartic, that would balance his two other special attackers. One special wall can take him pretty easily.

I was honestly hoping they had 6 Pokemon, just 3 were randomly selected each time.

Well Serebii said it wasn't sure if the teams were set which kind of gives me hope that they might have different teams.
 
So we know now that Shizuli will be the last gym leader you face, but does anybody have a guess to where his gym will be?

The popular guesses are that it's in Undella or the town north of it but we haven't had confirmation on either.
 
Ha, I was, in my clueless way, right about Roxie!! AHHAHHAHAHA...oh well, I shouldn't be bragging about not knowing that there was already a gym leader named Roxanne...fail, but whatever. I predicted it, people!

Does anyone know if the mode thingies affect the hardness of the Gym puzzles? That would be interesting.
 
That would be awesome and i already have ideas

Cheren- defeat 5 instead of 2
Roxie- she can have an audience that you have to defeat too
Cheren- silk theme is trickier more trainers
Elesa- more trainers
Clay- i dont know how to improve the conveyor belt but more trainers
Skyla- n/a
Drayden- n/a
Shizui(Wade)- Trickier lily pad thingies

Skylar's gym puzzle is getting across the raised paths whilst being blown by wind. Perhaps in challenge mode the wind could be stronger and the paths could be more maze-like. Clay's gym could be darker...? But according to serebii Clay's gym is already really dark anyway it took Serebii a while to do it. Elesa's gym already has a lot of trainers. You go through her old gym and battle the trainers, then you go into the new gym, up the cat walk whilst battling more trainers. IMO Elesa's gym should just have raised levels. Roxie should just have a puzzle since she lacks one. Maybe something musical themed?
 
Oh, I have an idea for Roxie! You could listen to/see a rhythm that you have to replicate on the buttons. For example, each note would have a different button on it and then you'd have to press the buttons in sequence. Sorta like a memory thing. If you got it wrong then you'd have to battle extra trainers, like in Fantina's gym.

That would be quite good. And probably would win the award for the most annoying gym puzzle ever. ._. I hate things like that but there's no doubt it would be interesting.
 
I don't think we have challenge mode gyms though it'll be nice if we did.
If there was one Cheren's could be a group of trainers with more difficult to defeat Pokemon for the early routes like Riolu, Mareep, Marill which are stronger than what we proably will have...
