The gym leaders

(1/3) > >>

Tickles:
I have searched, and seen people make different suggestions on this, but this one is different. Instead of making the gyms all mono-type, why not have the gym leaders based on the developers, each one with a team of Pokemon the developers would use in the game, if they plan on playing alongside us ( that means you L5P). These leaders would be NPC's of course, but it would make for a different strategy for battles, and with the new balance system, make them engaging as well. It would be cool having to battle an NPC leader who uses Pokemon Mr_Dark would use. Just an idea.

Hiteryan:
Although I see this as a pretty cool idea, it would have to be carefully implemented and probably would have to be done in a different way. Since I don't think any of us development team would use a mono type team.

Maybe it could be done like this, there are 17 gyms. For instance say the first 8 gyms were mono type. Then they would gradually evolve to multi types, so they would be more challenging because when you first hit the gym leader you don't know what to expect and what Pokémon to take with you. There would be some exceptions, for instance, the 15th gym being only dragon type, or something. But I definitely agree on having gyms with various types of Pokémon. The more further in the game, the more mixed up the types would be.

Shadowfred:
I'm pretty sure he meant we would be there instead of monotype, although I do use monotype pretty often.

I like the idea, but perhaps it should be some kind of alternate "league"? Perhaps once you've beaten the regular league you unlock the ability to go up the team? That way we can all be max level, if only to stop squabbles about encounter order (Pidgey should be the first gym leader).

Viper:
Hmm well Dark would have to first pick the pokemon that he uses for this to work, or rather which ones he thinks look the coolest :P

Declan_23:
Technically, there would be no encounter order, as you will be able to challenge the gyms in any order you please. Actually, there will be NPC versions of PU team members, hidden around the map as easter eggs, which you can both battle and talk to for amusement. The only issue I have with making team members gyms leaders, is that it would ruin the realism of the storyline, should they be included.
