    I love the idea from Pokemon Origins that all the gym leaders are actually packing full aggro teams and choose fewer and weaker Pokemon of theirs depending on how many badges the trainer taking on the gym has. It makes perfect sense because having most trainers in the country being more powerful than any gym leaders would be really weird, and it makes it so that any new trainer starting their journey wouldn't have to travel all the way to a specific town to start their gym challenge.

      Maybe splitting the gyms up into subregions, with a new subregion opening up when you clear all the gyms of the previous subregion?
      First gym should probably always be the first gym, so maybe 4 subregions, with the gym split being 1-2-3-2 between the subregions.

    It’s always been my head canon that the gym leaders are all equally strong, they just keep 8 different teams that they switch out based on how many badges the challenger has.
    A similar thing would apply to the other gym trainers but they wouldn’t have multiple teams, the leader just decides who you challenge based off your badges and gyms have a wide range or skill level with their trainers so there’s always enough to make a series of obstacles for the challenger.

      Origins was really clever showing that gym leaders have multiple teams to the level of their contestants. I mean, imagine you want to start your league championship, live in the same city as the "last" gym and the "first" gym is halfway across the region!? Makes more sense they would have a flexible order of gyms ready for contestants of different amount of badges. The game obviously can't afford it, but the lore certaintly can.

      Having 6-8 Gyms inside of the same massive city the size of the wild area would be really cool to see with a similar any order feature with the massive plot happening when you finished the Gym Challenge & a similar long pre gym challenge existing to what happened in Gen 8. Perhaps 2 of the Gyms wouldn't be part of the main city where any order happens or something could happen where you have to rematch the gym leaders as part of the plot. I'm still waiting for Pokemon to Escape the 8 Gym Total & was disappointed that Gen 8 chose to have version exclusives instead of 10 Gyms.

      The best part is that this is something that's been theoretically possible since gen three with the ribbon system. Just like how a pokemon had to have certain ribbons to participate in certain contests, you could have number of badges change the gym.
      Or even, theoretically, a replay able gym challenge where you register a team at the beginning and the gym ribbon they have when you start the next gym dictates how strong that gym will be.

    15:17 This is a bit nitpicky but Cryogonal is WAY too strong for a first gym. The average base stat total for the ace of each gym leader is 373 (including Hala). Cryogonal’s BST is 515 which is crazy high. I know this is just a hypothetical but that’s insane.

    You say that, when Milo, the first gym leader in Galar, uses Eldegoss, a Pokemon with 460 base stat total, very good for a first gym Pokemon.

    • @chonkyclouds7635
      @chonkyclouds7635 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Except you know...base stat totals aren't everything. Both Milo and Bugsy use types that are weak to most earlygame mons. The entire first half of the wild area, all the routes before the gym, and even the isle of armor DLC are all open before you fight Milo. As for Bugsy, the early areas give enough rock/flying/electric types to deal with him, not to mention the fire starter. Steelix resists a lot of the earlygame normal moves, and you only have three pokemon that can do something to it - cyndaquil which dies to the rock moves it learns early on in HGSS, totodile which isn't a special attacker, and the route 32 woopers in case you started with chikorita. Typings and the available pokemon matter way more than base stat totals.

      Same with Starmie (who is sometimes seen as strong)
      You're also likely to have a flying type, a rock type or a grass type, meaning having a higher BST poké with ok to bad moves is way easier to handle than a poké that can infatuate you, is bulky, can heal itself, and flinch you or ramp with rollout.

    This is actually an interesint concept in itself. It always kinda depends on when would the trainer start.

      It probably depends on the leader. Here are some possibilities, taken from the full list of moves that have ever been a TM/TR. Priority is given to TMs that have been a Gym TM before.
      Normal: Swift, Work Up, Round...and I guess Return because that has been given out pretty damn early in games before.
      Fire: Fire Spin, Incinerate
      Water: Water Pulse, Brine, Rain Dance, Bubble Beam
      Electric: Thunder Wave, Shock Wave, Charge Beam
      Grass: Mega Drain, Giga Drain, Bullet Seed, Grass Knot, Trailblaze, Magical Leaf
      Ice: Icy Wind, Avalanche
      Fighting: Bulk Up, Power-Up Punch, Low Sweep, Low Kick, Seismic Toss
      Poison: Acid Spray, Poison Tail, Venoshock, Toxic
      Ground: Mud-Slap, Mud Shot, Bulldoze
      Flying: Aerial Ace, Roost, Air Cutter
      Psychic: Calm Mind, Light Screen, Reflect, Skill Swap, Psywave
      Bug: Fury Cutter, Struggle Bug, Pounce, Infestation
      Rock: Rock Tomb, Rock Polish, Stealth Rock, Smack Down
      Ghost: Confuse Ray, Night Shade
      Dragon: Dragon Breath, Breaking Swipe

    If Giovanni was the first GL:
    You have a choice after defeating him. He gives the monologue on his dreams for TR, and then you decide: Turn him in or let him go. If you let him go it acts like a normal game from then on, but with some extra dialogue covering the choice you made. If you turn him in, though, you go through the region, but without Rocket. Everywhere something used to happen with them, it doesn’t. Until you bring local thugs out of the woodwork, and this new Neo-TR becomes the main villians

    I actually feel Cryogonal can work well with a first Gym Leader, as it teaches you about considering more than just type effectiveness when choosing moves due to the large imbalance between its Defense and Special Defense stats. However, to help make it more manageable, since the Gym Leader's ace always knows the move from the TM that they hand out, I think it would be best if an Ice Gym Leader that had a Cryogonal as their ace gave out the TM for Avalanche, a negative priority physical move that Cryogonal can learn, as Cryogonal's biggest strengths are its Special Defense, Speed, and Special Attack.
