So, are we to assume that the gym leaders are stronger and better as they went along? Even though that makes sense in the context of the games (the need to be able to fight weaker leaders when you are weak), I don't think it entirely makes sense in the context of what we are doing here. Wouldn't it make sense that all gym leaders are, more or less, equal in their skill level? And that you could challenge whatever gym leader you want, regardless of order? Probably a small nit-picky thing, but something I was think about none-the-less.
I may have phrased it wrong because I referenced the game in terms of the last Gym Leader and the higher you go and such but the idea isn't that these Gym Leaders all just started out so that they don't have multiple fully evolved Pokemon. I mean, not like they would battle with 6 fully evolved Pokemon if the trainer opposing them only has like 2 or 3 Pokemon. In the anime it was always the Gym Leaders using the amount of Pokemon the challenger has if the Gym Leader had more Pokemon than the challenger.
And as stated before, the previous game even had Gym Leaders exempt from that rule to begin with.
Although as far as the "order" of Gym Leaders goes...I suppose so. We can scrap the order but one of the things about Gym Leaders like Cael Armstrong, Clifford Montaro, and Drew Dwyer is that the trainers have to prove themselves "worthy" is it is clearly depicted as part of their personality with the mini-bios I provided with how their Gyms function.
BTW, any other gym leaders taken?
No.
