| [[Image:03.png|frame|right|Leader [[Brawly]] challenges the player's character.]] A '''Leader''' (Japanese: '''ジムリーダー''' ''Gym Leader'') is the [[list of trainer classes|trainer class]] name the [[Pokémon games]] give [[Gym Leader]]s during battles. Despite being introduced in [[Generation I]], the name did not appear onscreen until [[Generation II]], and has been incorporated into every game since. Gym Leaders are integral within the Pokémon universe. In order for one to advance in the game, the player must occasionally challenge and defeat the leader of a [[Gym]]. Each game is designed in such a way that the player will not be able to move forward until they receive a [[Gym Badge]] which will, in turn, allow them to use a [[Hidden Machine]] to overcome natural obstacles or visit previously explored areas. It is one of the player's main objectives to collect eight Gym Badges, allowing him or her to challenge the [[Elite Four]].

| In addition to Gym Leaders, there are also Gym Trainers. While not an official [[list of trainer classes|trainer class]], they are trainers that are either a devotee or apprentice to the Gym Leader. It is usually necessary to defeat multiple Gym Trainers before challenging the Gym Leader. Some Gyms in the game require the player to solve a puzzle, and one must often use Gym Trainers as obstacles to reach the solution. They have no direct impact on the overall plot, other than rarely offering the player helpful advice. It is also worth noting that the type of [[trainer]] appearing in a Gym will depend on the Gym itself. For instance, [[Gardenia]] employs [[Aroma Lady]]s and [[Beauty]]s, exclusively, while [[Misty]] recruits [[Tuber]]s and [[Swimmer]]s.
