Because there aren't as many female trainers as male trainers if you think about it...o__0; I suppose someone like Glacia or Lorelei could have gotten promoted but...in general you see more SKILLED male trainers in the games. As in GLs and Elites.
*thinks about it* Right...but why should male trainers be more skilled than female? Oo
But there are still always four female gym leaders and four male gym leaders...with the exception of Hoenn, of course. ^^
Which leads me to the question....why is Koga an Elite now? He is strong, yes, but who decided that he should become one? ^^( have nothing against Koga, for all who think so now. XD)
Yeah, I found it weird, too. Because at first I thought that the Kanto League would not longer exist if one of the Gym Leaders is missing. XDDDDDDDDDDDD
Flannery=Asuna. Koga is in Elite because he is stronge. He hard worked and then he is one of strongest trainer. I think then he is there because he is 35 years old and he is clever and mature. And then he can learn something young trainers who want be master in future. And he is in Elite because now his daughter is leader. Hmm what do you think about Fuchsia with 2 gym leaders? Family poison attack ! Yay
