Why not a video for an update team for each gym leader? Every gym leaders get's acces to all the pokemon of the speaclized typing updated aces can't be replicated ( unless necessary), gym leader's teams still consist with at least 1 pokemon of their gen. Maybe making it a more part video for each region? Plus, their full team for rematches? Having acces to pokemon who counter their weaknesses would make gym leaders a real force to reckoned with. Might be even good to increase the min pokemon they use to 3? E4 members could be a seperate video where they could even use pokemon who are aces of gymleaders, but aren't their aces.

Nidoking as Giovanni's ace would've made sense because Team Rocket uses a lot of Poison-types, and it suits with Giovanni's status as a "king" himself of sorts. All the more ironic in that Ground types, Nido's secondary typing, are strong against Poison-types.

Saying "His new ace should be Galarian Weezing, because he's toxic" about Bede is actually kinda funny, bc the sword pokedex says that it absorbs toxic chemicals and _releases clean air_ , which is actually pretty fitting for his semi-redemption arc (i say arc, its barely anything. i wish he had more of a personality, i love Bede)
