Gym Leaders are some of the most important and recognizable characters in the Pokemon franchise. I recently completed a series on the channel where I covered an interesting fact about every single Pokemon, so I figured I would do the same for the human characters as well! The Gym Leaders have a lot of interesting trivia to offer, so I hope you enjoy the video!

Nessa uses a male drednaw that can only dynamax, her female one can gigantamax, it does not change gender (spelt drednaw wrong)

@michaelyu2744 4 года назад

yeah it was always quite obvious to me that she has 2 drednaw

@melonman6522 4 года назад

They mention at some point all the gym leaders use weaker pokemon than their main team so they don't completely overwhelm challengers making it impossible for anyone to progress.

@magolor152 4 года назад

@@melonman6522 that's how it works in other regions too, every gym leader technically doesn't have a set order in which they have to be fought therefore they all usually have teams specialized for fighting weak and strong trainers, for example while Flannery's team consists of a torkoal, numel, and possibly a slugma, for fighting a trainer with 8 badges she would probably have a camerupt, a higher level torkoal, maybe a ninetales, ext. (well this kind of stuff is not seen in the games but it is hinted and technically shown in the anime and mangas)

@sofiamafra2644 4 года назад

@@magolor152 That's correct, but it's kinda hinted at in the games too (at least the ones where you can rematch the leaders). They all have much stronger teams when fighting a champion-status trainer, as opposed to the weaker ones in the first time you battle them. It could be that they just trained a lot since your battle, but it makes more sense that they have specific teams based on the number of badges their opponent have.

@lordofninjas1 4 года назад

While it's true they aren't evil in the traditional sense (commiting crimes and the like), I have seen some people suggest that they may be a "statement", for lack of a better term, on Toxic Fanbases and such, and most people see Toxic Fanbases as bad, or evil if you will, so an argument could be made that they are evil in that sense.

The reason why Erika's Kimono was crossed right over left in the original concept art was that she was originally going to be the Ghost-Type Gym Leader of Lavender Town until they decided not to do that, this also make the floating Pokéball in her sprite make more sense too

@marhawkman303 Год назад

@@hydriadus Hmm... that's a possible explanation, not sure it's the RIGHt one though. you'd think a grass trainer wouldn't inhale the sleep powder unless they wanted to... especially since the other trainers under her don't seem to share that.

@marhawkman303 Год назад

@maltese1122 oh that's a lot of layers of retcons to do.... ooooh boy... :D layer 1: Erika probably got swapped to Grass from Ghost since they just didn't have enough Ghosts. So... what would her team be? Pokémon that aren't in gen1 at all? Layer2: what would a ghost version of Erika's story be? I suspect "perfume" thing could be more akin to incense? Less one with nature, more one with the spirit world? Layer3: Erika doesn't interact much with other Gymleaders in the anime so... not a lot there. But it'd be interesting if Ash met Erika... then did the Gengar thing since... He'd be quite familiar with Gengars by then.

A really cool thing about Gordie and Melony that I found out about: Even though they specialize in different types, their team's typings are actually not so different. During their gym battles, both of them use a single typed, a fire type, a water type, and a bug type Pokémon. Also, both of their ace's other type is strong against each other's specialized type. I always find this a nice touch, wonder if this is intentional.

In the Sun and Moon games when Hau mentions that his dad got a job far away from Alola, many people seem to try to make it seem like he'd only stick to fighting type Pokemon because of his relation to Hala, but Here we can see that Marlon Looks like Hau and even has the same carefree attitude that makes Him seem like He could be Hau's dad. Even his gym has a tropical feel to it... I can't seem to get anyone to see these similarities even though they're So blatant you'd have to be blind in order to miss them

I heard once that Erika was supposed to be a Ghost Gym Leader at one point, so the kimono being crossed the wrong way may have been left over from that idea.

@marhawkman303 2 года назад

It also explains her pose. She is posed almost like she propped up on something behind her in R/G/B. Also why is her facial expression like that of someone asleep... or yeah? Also, if you look closely her pokeball is LEVITATING in the battle art. That doesn't make sense for a gardener. It's kinda explained that she likes the zen peaceful sort of gardening, but even then... not that much of an explanation. Her backstory doesn't involve psychic powers. The kimono being folded the wrong way would make PERFECT sense if she was intended to be a GHOST trainer.... and would also explain the levitating Pokeball and why she's seemingly unconscious.

Did anyone notice how popular the fighting type is? There's been a Pokémon League Fighting type specialist for every gen. Kanto-Bruno Johto-Chuck Hoenn-Brawly Sinnoh-Maylene Unova-Marshal Kalos- Korrina Alola- Hala Galar (can be the exception if you played Shield)- Bea I'm not sure if any other types are in every game like Fighting.

@lordofninjas1 4 года назад

While they may not all be League members/Gym Leaders Psychic also has some sort of type specialist in each game Kanto- Sabrina Johto- Will Hoenn- Tate and Liza Sinnoh- Lucian Unova- Caitlin Kalos- Olympia Alola- Dexio (while he isn't a Gym Leader/League Member, he does seem to be meant to be the Psychic Specialist for the region) Galar- Bede (until he becomes a Fairy Specialist) and once the DLC comes out it'll be Avery. I don't think it could work for any other types because of how the typings are set up between games and such, Johto is mainly the one that screws it up as as far as I'm aware the only way all types are represented there are through the Kanto Gym Leaders. Besides that though I think Water is the next closest with 7 (there could be more though) as it would be: Kanto- Misty Johto- no one (unless you want to count Misty) Hoenn- Wallace/Juan Sinnoh- Crasher Wake Unova- Cress Kalos- Siebold Alola- Lana Galar- Nessa

I just hope that Piers won’t be the last Dark Type Gym Leader we get, he’s so cool and I want this type to get more rep in the gyms, I mean Piers being in charge of the ‘evil’ team was really doing it for a very sweet and loving standpoint, making sure his little sister is cheered on throughout her journey to becoming champion, and that’s just so adorable. And that’s the way GameFreak should approach Dark Type Gym Leaders, they’re not evil because they’re using the evil type, they like the aesthetic and are actually real sweethearts once you meet them(despite how punk Piers is, I can’t get over how gosh darn adorable he is with his sister).

@TheCrowVarietyShow 4 года назад

Raihan is the first gym leader who's typing hardly resembles the type he claims. In the gym he has 2 dragon types, 2 ground types, 1 rock, and one steel. Why not be a rock/ground gym leader at that point?

A few facts to add in. 1. In the anime, Winona was one of the first gym leaders to use a shiny Pokemon being her Swellow. 2. In the anime, Clair is the only Johto gym leader to make a second appearance around in the Black and White anime where she goes after a shiny Drudrigon. This would make her the second gym leader in the anime to own a shiny as well.

15:41 I found a better fact, which made me laugh out loud. 'Skyla' is apparently also the name of a brand of IUD, which, "is a little, t-shaped piece of plastic inserted into the uterus to provide birth control." This makes the sentence, "Skyla using a Skyla" grammatically correct, and terrible to picture. Oh yeah, and recently I found something interesting. Nessa's name may be a reference to The Silmarillion by J. R. R. Tolkien. In the book, one of the Valar (Basically Middle Earth's gods) is also named Nessa. This may be a coincidence because she has nothing to do with water or the ocean.
