Gym Leaders + Elite Four System

[Nidorina]

Gym Leaders and Elite Four members are going to be pre-established NPCs that we are going to create as a cooperative effort. They'll have very strict terms of use that must be followed to prevent misuse of them.

[cephalgia]

And there will be 16, one for each type, but they may have Pokémon not of their specialty type that know moves of said type (i.e. Volkner's Octillery with Charge Beam).

The Elite Four will be based on the seasons; the Champion will have a mix of Pokémon.

[MERLON]

I submit this dude for Psychic Gym Leader consideration.

If you guys decide not to use him, can I keep him around as a defunct Gym Leader, like Kanto's Fighting Dojo?

In either case, let me know what you think and feel free to tweak him if you like.

[beckstar]

Dunno how much my opinion counts for, but personally I think he's great.

[cooltrainerbro]

I like the idea of Merlon as a gym leader.

Perhaps it can be in a Casino town based off of Las Vegas where there are always shows like this?

[Master Asia]

He breaks the mold of the "Silent, overly analytical psychic type user", a la Sabrina & Lucian.

This is good. =]

So hey I made this. Yeah it's really rough and whatnot, but I was bored and figured maybe we could build this into a kind of bird pokemon gym leader or some such?

Thoughts?

[cephalgia]

It's possible she could be made into one.

There's also somebody else who suggested a flying gym leader who trained 'non-bird' flying types like Drifloon due to a fear of birds, and there was a design posted, but no name or anything else besides those basic facts. I dunno where that person is, though.

[cephalgia]

So guys, I'm asking on the wiki. Since weve been stalling, I thought I could help finish out all the gym leaders and towns. Without them, the fun can't really begin.

One thats been tossed around a while is a flying gym, with a few ideas being suggested. First, someone suggested a gym leader who has a fear of birds, and so trains non-avian Pokemon like Drifloon. I personally think that is an awesome idea. If we had a badge, it could be the Cloud/Nimbus Badge or Wind Badge. Here is an art of her someone made (Cloud/Nimbus Badge would fit her hair)


biggiesmalls suggested a trainer named Amelia (like Amelia Earhart), who could be adapted into a gym leader or just stay a regular trainer. trleague.wikia.com/wiki/Amelia_Vincenzo
I really like the name Amelia. I would suggest we use the name, but I just wish we had Fuuro's English name. If they take the name Amelia, that's brilliant and I'll be pissed at them for being so brilliant. Then again, they like to go with puns.

Someone also suggested the names Sora or Aoi.

Another suggested

If the Dragon-type Gym isn't occupied yet, I'd like to propose a leader composed of different ideas that floated around here:

The city would have an oddities museum, with rare/strange artifacts, like a part of Genosect's former species fossil, supposed Tentaquil photos, a stuffed four-headed Dodrio and some others, and is maintained by the explorer Victor Torres(Torres = Tower in Spanish/Portuguese). The Gym Leader would be Valerie Torres, his daughter, who administrate the museum when he is travelling. She is a tall woman dressed as secretary. Victor can be used as an event character, giving rare items to the player who shows him a special Pokémon.

Team: Dragonair/Nite, Seadra/Kingdra, Crimgan, Onondo/kusu, Swablu/Altaria, Shubarugo (with new move called Dragon Lance)
Gives: Treasure Badge plus TM Dragon Lance (never miss Dragon-type foes)

However... Centria already has the oddities museum, so it'd have to be something else they're administrating.

They could have something like Casa Loma, but Chinese and the gym's in there.

I announce....

Captain Richard Mobius! (Rough Version)

More like, the Waitilus.

[beckstar]

What a badass

[cephalgia]

I like him. He would be the gym leader of Gondolia if this is the case. Maybe I'll add a few things about it.
