Roark, and a few others because it’s hard to choose! He’s always struck me as one of the most down to earth and realistic gym leaders, and I’ve always loved rock types too. He had a neat, straightforward gym, seemed chill and had a cool town as well.
Mine was the electric type gym leader. My reason is weird, but to see a gym leader get burnt out made them that much more human to me and I was like, "Yeah, I could see this happening." That and he was strong against the team I had so he was more of a welcome challange.
Thats kind of hard. I dont really have an attachment to any of them but I think Fantina is really interesting, being a foreigner and also in the Pokémon contests. Also shes a ghost type specialist and looks like a Drifloon/Drifblim so plus points for that
CRASHER WAKE come on guys he has a theme song!! He's so good! All of them have their charms though, it's cute that candice and maylene are friends!
Like many of you, I have to say my favorite is Volkner. He knows he's at the top of the gym leaders in Sinnoh, and he decides that depending on how your battle with him goes, he'll challenge the Elite Four. That kind of passion for battling that has made him hungry for challenges he hasn't received makes him more believable and more fearsome, as well.
