Your best/favourite type (IF YOU WERE TO BE A GYM LEADER?)

[thedestinedblade]

Normal has always been my favorite type. Sure, not great at anything, but it's not bad at anything either. Team would probably be;

Miltank
Spinda
Tauros
Girafarig
Swellow
Kecleon

 

[Legendario]

if i was a great and mighty gym leader i would go with every type!
my team would be-

Lucario
Luxray
Torterra
Charizard
Snorlax
Lumineon

but if i had to go with one type it would be fighting
my team would then be-
Lucario
Machamp
Medicham
Hitmonlee
Hariyama
Infernap

If I was going to be a Gym leader I'd use ground Pokemon as they're awesome plus there is so much variety with them. For example I could have Torterra, Garchomp, Swampert, Nidoqueen, Steelix, Gliscor, Camerupt, Mamoswine, Claydol, Flygon... the list goes on an on. It also means no one could come at you with a certain type and expect victory, they'd have to have a good range of types. They send in Ice I send out Camerupt or Steelix, they send out water I sent in Torterra or Garchomp, they send in Grass I send in Gliscor or Nidoqueen. You see what I mean? The possibilites are endless!

Exactly what I was thinking too. Ground with different combines can beat all types the just ground are weak to.

Besides, outside of Giovanni, there's no acclaimed Ground type gym anywhere in all regions.

I'd do Electric/Dark double battles.

[rockshock28]

I'd be an Ice type. They're just awesome.

 

[Lycaeus]

If I was a gym leader, I'd have a Steel based gym.

Team:
✖ Steelix - Steel/Ground
✖ Skarmory - Steel/Flying
✖ Empoleon - Steel/Water
✖ Lucario - Steel/Fighting
✖ Metagross - Steel/Psychic

I love steel types(:

[Dopefish7590]

My gym would be a water-type gym. I just love water-types in general. My trump-card Pokémon would most likely be a Swampert or Empoleon.

 

[big NATE alpha]

I can't decide, and I definitely do not know what my whole teams would be, but some possibilities are:
Grass (with leader: Torterra)
Water (with leader: Empoleon OR Feraligatr)
Dark (with leader: Weavile OR Umbreon)
Steel (with leader: Lucario)

Steel would be a good one, because they have such a diversity that they can cover their weaknesses pretty well. I could use Skarmory against ground and fighting attacks or Bastiodon, Probopass, Empoleon, or Aggron against Fire type.

Water is also good because it has only two weaknesses, and those are easily covered. Empoleon, Mantine, and Pelipper can defend against Grass types, while Gastrodon, Swampert, and Quagsire can stop electric attackers in their tracks.

 

[subdecay]

It'd have to be psychic, but I would use only psychics with cross types like golduck who can use water type attacks too :P give the trainers a little challenge so to speak :D

 

[CharonEX]

I'd probably use either Dragon types or Dark types since those are my two favorite.
Either one of those or fire, since Fire types are totally BA.

Though overall Darks are my number one favorite since most of my favorite Pokemon are dark types.

 

[ChrisTom]

Alright,....

*sigh*

So firstly, I hope you realize there are 5 billion threads exactly like this.

Secondly, I hate when people assume Gyms have to have a specific type. Did you ever think of a theme for a gym? No, because nobody ever thinks outside of the box. So we're stuck with a bunch of people who are the same.

So here are some of my ideas:

Heavyweight gym:

Gym leader is fat. Gym number 6. He has following Pokemon

Snorlax Lvl 35lead

Steelix Lvl 30

Steelix Lvl 30

Metagross Lvl 32

Blade Gym:

Leader has messy hair. Gym number 4. Has following Pokemon:

Scyther Lvl 25

Scyther Lvl 25

Anorith Lvl 28

Kabutops Lvl 30 lead

Earth Gym:

Gym leader has Green clothing and black hair. Gym order number 8. He has following Pokemon.

Solrock Lvl 39

Lunatone Lvl 39

Golem Lvl 40

Charmeleon Lvl 34

Lapras Lvl 40

Torterra Lvl 50 lead 10 levels higher than rest


So yeah. For anybody else who posts a thread exactly like this one:

THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE A SPECIFIC TYPE TO BE A GYM!!!

Seriously people! Think outside the box for once!

 

[Amore]

I'd use dragon pokemon, just because of variety:

Kingdra
Dragonite
Flygon
(probably a Dragonair/Salamence).I mean, the only combo that can beat them is dragon.

 

[MewMewXX]

I'd be Dragon or Dark, because they're my favourites. ^_^

 

[Sweet Candace]

I really like Electric types, they're my favorite from all the types.

Electric Gym: Gym #8

-Pikachu Lv. 45 (lead)
-Magneton Lv. 45
-Porygon2 Lv. 47
-Electabuzz Lv. 46
-Raichu Lv. 50

 

[DGexe]

I applaud thinking outside the box, but on the other hand the title does imply specific types, so this time I'll comply:

Ghost Type Gym

Taunter
Lv. 45
Levitate
Hypnosis, Sludge Bomb, Dream Eater, Dark Pulse

Hindenburg
Lv. 43
Unburden
Omnious Wind, Shadow Ball, Fly

Sheerot

Grim Noir

[Nikorasu]

Electric, My tactic would to use thunder wave then bombarde with attacks D:

 

[mynightmare]

I'd either be a the leader of an Ice or Dark gym.

 

[Colette]

I'd be the ironic leader with electric and water types. Those are my two favorites. It'd be kind of funny anyway. >_>

 

[Klofkac]

I would have mixed team with double battles.
