The obvious thing is they should’ve had megas, the big new feature of X & Y and none of the Gym Leader (or Elite Four) use it.

Of all the gym leaders. The kalos region definitely needs the biggest revamp when it gets a remake.

"I would give Gogoat a Citrus Berry"

The berry pops on Ludicolo

If you think about it the 4th,5th,6th and 7th Gym could have been all terrain themed in perfectly order

I think that just about every major Kalos trainer could have their team revamped, not just the gym leaders. The elite 4, Diantha, Lysandre, and Calem/Serena could use a glowup too.

I love this. Most people rework gym leaders by making them insanely broken. It’s really nice to see someone up the difficulty on the gym leaders while keeping it fair

FYI, NPCs are programmed to always send out Mega Evolutions last.

“It will pose an interesting threat”
That is an Uber with some of the best moves it can get, I think the threat will be more than interesting

i know you said that wulfric leading with mega abomasnow would be weird but i actually think it'd be a really good way to make him more climactic after the team flare finale like leading with his strongest to show that he means BUSINESS

Honestly for Clemont I think Galvantula would work better than Manetric. Its part bug type so its neutral to ground, and im like 90% sure joltik can be found and evolved before the gym. Plus galvantula has somewhat better coverage with energy ball as opposed to flamethrower

Something interesting to Clemont, Valerie, Olympia and Wulfric is that their character's models are 3 tiles wide. This is due to Clemont's mechanical hands, Valerie's long sleeves, Olympia's wide cape, and Wulfric's big coat going over adjacent tiles. Just for this fact, I think Clemont should have a Mega :D

To be honest, I see Clemont more with a Mega-Ampharos, the "Light Pokémon". It resonates more with Lumiose City "The City of Light", previously suffering from a power outage. Whe are also introduced with the lighting of the Prismatic Tower as his Gym, making Ampharos extremely thematic.

Side note: I find it funny to add Grassy Terrain and Misty Terrain to Ramos and Valerie, yet removing Electric Terrain from Clemont's team!

Clemont being the quiz master and having a Rotom on his team could be used as well.  For example the player could answers a quiz while going through the gym and its form could change based on the answers the player gives.

Mega for every gym leader after the fighting gym to really give a challenge

Speaking of megas. Bring back those pokemon as side evos in a future gen so it's not wasted. For some that don't change types just give the stats or abilities like for Beedrill

I like most of the changes made! Much better difficulty wise. My only worry is Viola with more infestation, and the addition of poison powder on Vivillon. Getting locked in with early game mons by Infestation can be lethal.

You know the game's difficulty curve is dire when the "hardest" boss in the region is the second Gym Leader.

I think my least favorite thing about X and Y is how none of the new Pokémon for those games got a Mega Evolution. Mega Pangoro or Mega Tyrantrum or even Mega Gogoat could have been epic.

Make Korrina the 4th Gym Leader and make Ramos (Grass Guy) the 3rd. After Korrina’s battle, each Gym Leader will use a Mega Evolved 6th Gen Pokémon

Clemont - Mega Helioptile

Valerie - Mega Sylveon

Olympia - Mega Malamar

Wulfric - Mega Avalugg


The Elite Four will do the same.

I would take Olympia and Wulfric one step further. Give Sigilyph Light Clay for the screens to last longer, and give the Icy Rock (Hail extender) to Cryogonal. The items might not come into play too often, but the last gym leaders should have multiple items, in my opinion.

Mega Mawile has a bigger BST than you think, because it has huge power.

He said 22:19 “I think mega mawile will do a great job of introducing gym battles with mega evolutions with its slow bst”. Meanwhile im having war flashback of the thing

I'll give a white herb to Cloyster so it can shell smash to raise its attack and speed and the herb stops the defences from lowering.
