General Discussion

If you were a Pokemon Gym Leader, what type would you be? And, if you already know, with which Pokemons (no legends :p)? Personally, probably an insect type but late game. Love insect types and kinda love how most are trash and a few are simply OP/Epic, with very nice design for such a "siple type"! I'ld probably have Scizor, Scolipede, Galvantula, Volcarona, Golisopod & Snom (cause Snom is best boi) [edit] Thanks to a comment a made a trainer card :D [img]https://tcm-assets.pokecharms.com/cards/2022-06-10/9f75dbc5-36ce-4e8d-86bc-a9273fce3d51.png[/img]

I had a Dark-type gym leader/Elite 4 team planned out a long time ago and this just reminded me of it! I used the [url=https://tcm.pokecharms.com]Pokecharms Trainer Card maker[/url] for this.

@Svecounia72 so cool! I made one too! thanks a lot for the link :D

Oo tricky, I'd probs be either dragon or fairy, though I only say dragon because goodra is my all time fav mon <3 Bug type mons can be super underrated, there are def some weak ones but also some are very strong and then just... snom my beloved... <3

Imma make teams just for the aesthetics I have only a vague idea how strong mons are... so, as a fairy type leader I'd probs have Whimsicott, Sylveon, Azumarill, Klefki, Blissey and Gardevoir (specifically a male one bc I think think its funny that everyone thinks of Gardevoir as just a lady in a dress when it has a 50/50 gender split)

I'll give a dragon type team too bc no one can stop me >:3 Ofc I'd have a goodra, probably a Hisuian one! Also Dragonite, Noivern, Appletun, Dragalge and Alolan Exeggutor for the laughs.. can you tell I love the goofy, weird dragons haha

@galaxywings48
I love goomy so much, cause I love snails, and its a slimey baby (tbh, if it were insect type instead of dragon, it would be perfect in my opinion)
Also, have a female Azumarill! There's a "glitch (idk if it's a glitch tbh) where, when a male Azuril evolves, it can changes gender to become a female. It's because Azuril are 75%female and 25%male while Marills & Azumarills are 50-50 :D

@KryoMichli

Oh I've heard about that glitch, it's hilarious! I love the stupid juxtaposition of pokemon games limiting player character customisation by gender so heavily (very gendered hairstyles, clothing options, etc) But also the actual pokemon doing all kinds of weird gender shenanigans, it brings me great joy. Just. Trans azumarill >

Oh goodness I think about this all the time
I would definetely be a dragon type gym leader

And my team would have to be:
-Kingdra
-Duraludon
-Garchomp
-Hydreigon
-Salamence
-Haxorus (tho could possibly be subbed for Dragalge or Turtonator)

Without hesitation, Fire. Dunno which Pokemon would make up my team, but I do know a Flareon would have to be in the mix somewhere.

I'm not biased, don't look at me like that.

Ghost types. [img]https://i.imgur.com/evaq1mx.png[/img] I've loved ghost types since the very first game, as sparse as they were back then, but they are absolutely what I would be a specialist in, if I could. Honestly, choosing which I'd use was a bit hard because I love all of them, but if I had to, this would be my team: 1) Dragapult - I mean, it's a dragon, it's a ghost, it's a powerhouse. I've sadly not been able to train one myself yet, but I've seen how strong they can be, so I hope to be able to when Scar/Vio come out! 2) Gengar - The original ghost line, how could I not include Gengar? Not only is it a strong Pokemon that has a surprisingly wide arsenal of moves it can learn, it's Poison typing makes it ideal to target Fairy types, which are one of the main problems of a Ghost-mono team. 3) Chandelure - Once again, strong Pokemon with a few nasty moves it can use, mostly would be there to cover grass types and bug types that might cause problems. 4) Aegislash -Given it's steel typing and King's Shield, not much can stand against a properly run Aegislash, even types that are strong against it. 5) Hisuian Zoroark - (I know it's a normal Zoro, but the card maker didn't have the Hisuian form) Hisuian Zoroark only has one weakness, Dark types, and since it can learn fighting moves... (I have one on Legends and honestly none of my other Pokemon can even touch her in terms of how strong she is, she and my Steelix pretty much destroyed that one end-game trainer (If you've played it, you know who I mean)). 6) Shedinja - I HATE going up against this guy because of Wonder Guard, so of course I have to include it. If the opponent doesn't have a status inflicting move or a super effective type (Of which there is only five), they are in serious trouble against a well-run Shedinja.
