Every Gym Leader and Champion (except Red and Blue) always lead off with a particular Pokemon in singles, doubles, rotation, and triples. I've looked up several PWT videos and noticed this pattern for them all; the lead Pokemon is the same and the rest of the Pokemon are randomly picked from the party of six (unless it's Triples where all are used anyway). It's usually the first Pokemon listed in the party templates on this site (Norman's Slaking, Jasmine's Steelix, Steven's Metagross, etc.). Would this deserve a mention on this page at all, the pages of the trainers in question, or perhaps a new page altogether about the general concept of a 'signature Pokemon'?

Download

Do you Have to download ALL the gym leaders and champions and if so how long will they be available?--OmaceHERO (talk) 11:33, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

As far as I saw on YouTube, they're available outright, though I may be mistaken, as I didn't reached that part of game. Marked +-+-+ (talk) 12:32, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
Not all of the Gym Leaders are available immediatly though. For example the Unova Gym Leaders are unlocked once you have defeated the Elite 4 if I remember correctly. Once you have defeated the Unova leaders then another set of leaders from another region is unlocked. I haven't defeated any of the other leaders, but I know that they aren't all available immediatly though. Lady Ariel (talk) 14:59, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

Teams

Should the competitors' teams go here or on their pages? Compare: Colress#Second battle, Battle Subway#Subway Boss. -- GoldenCelebi 15:33, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

On their pages, it would stretch the page too much and probably surpass the template limit. --Spriteit (talk) 05:32, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
What about the facility trainers? There aren't many IIRC. -- GoldenCelebi 12:55, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
Exactly 20. Whereas Hugh has 31 party templates. -- GoldenCelebi 13:05, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
How about using this template? If there are no objections, I'll go ahead and do that. -- GoldenCelebi 16:55, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Participants

I think we should be sorting this by league, not by participant. So rather than saying which character appears in which league, we should be saying which league has which character. Of course, I wouldn't mind if we were to do both, just the latter is more important. --SnorlaxMonster 14:14, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

I agree also it makes it less confusing as to which players are in which league.--Glalie Power (talk) 19:10, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

You have my full support on this since each league needs does not a minor description to what it represents. -Tyler53841 (talk) 19:12, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

One confusing thing that could be dealt with is that many people would think that all 8 gym leaders are together during the same tournament when only 7 are selected for that tournament during the one time through a random selection (With both Hoenn and Unova Gym Leaders having more than eight). -Tyler53841 (talk) 19:19, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

Vito and the others.

OK, something that really irritates me is that there are no Dark-type gym leaders. This means that there is no gym leader in the type-expert for dark. There are some trainers for this but they are not listed on the page. Serebii has listed Vito (possibly) from the Winstrate family, but could someone confirm this?

Lead Pokemon

Every Gym Leader and Champion (except Red and Blue) always lead off with a particular Pokemon in singles, doubles, rotation, and triples. I've looked up several PWT videos and noticed this pattern for them all; the lead Pokemon is the same and the rest of the Pokemon are randomly picked from the party of six (unless it's Triples where all are used anyway). It's usually the first Pokemon listed in the party templates on this site (Norman's Slaking, Jasmine's Steelix, Steven's Metagross, etc.). Would this deserve a mention on this page at all, the pages of the trainers in question, or perhaps a new page altogether about the general concept of a 'signature Pokemon'? Chicobo329 (talk) 19:08, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

For the Driftveil singles at least, each participant has two specific Pokémon that they always use, usually listed first on Bulbapedia, as well as four others (two species with two possible movesets) only one of which they use (determined at random). I don't know where this should go (if anywhere) either, so I haven't put it up yet. -- GoldenCelebi 19:39, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
