@@karlaorellana1189 That is what you basically said and it's wrong. Giovanni is the only evil team leader to be a gym leader. The rest were never gym leaders, nor did any team leader even use a whole team of dark types. Plus Giovanni used ground types. In fact dark type didn't even exist in gen 1, so the one team leader who was actually a gym leader is out of the question. Basically: being an evil team leader doesn't count as being a gym leader, and even if it did none of them specialize in dark types.

My god, Piers is the first Dark Gym leader ever.

[@thesweatydad1]

Best part of this game was the crowds chant and the atmosphere of the Pokémon gym battles

[@larcen6484]

Ah yes, my favorite gym leader lineup: *one shotters*

[@KarateGirl999]

I find it very interesting that Raihan is classified as a Dragon-type user, yet only half of his Pokémon are Dragons... Just like Lance and Iris.

[@JoshusBarber]

It’s the dragon type tradition

[@adityam4263]

That's because of the scarcity of dragon types. There are, at most, 2 or 3 dragon types introduced every gen (excluding the legendary pokemon of course). So they have to improvise by giving dragon masters pokemon who look like dragons, but are not dragon type. I'm still not sure why Raihan has a gigalith tho. Or why iris has a lapras. Those two look nothing like dragons.

[@KarateGirl999]

@@adityam4263 That is definitely correct in Lance's case and _maybe_ Iris's too. But the thing about Iris is she was introduced at a point where there were enough dragon types to easily give her a full team of them. I think the reason her team isn't mono-dragon is the same reason Steven Stone is a Steel expert, but his team isn't mono-steel. They're both champions, and champion teams need to have more variety to take on many other types. However there's much more to Raihan's case. Raihan is a weather specialist as much as he is a dragon master, so he uses non-dragons that benefit from various weather conditions, which explains why he has a Gigalith with Sand Stream and Torkoal with Drought. Weather strategies also explain why he uses the doubles format, since that's the format they are used most commonly. Heck, the reason Raihan has harnessed weather strategies ties in to his lore as well, as explained on one of his league cards. Pardon me for nerding out like crazy lol.

If there’s one thing sword and shield does right in my opinion, it’s the gym battles. Sure, they’re hella easy, but the environment is just amazing with the entire stadium and crowd, one of the best themes, and the crowd chanting along to the theme

There’s technically 10 gym leaders in total, But the video only shows the ones for Pokémon SWORD. In Pokémon SHEILD, the only difference is the fourth & seventh Gym. Instead of Bea, it would be Allister, the ghost gym leader And instead of Gordie, it would be Melony the ice gym leader. I would know because I have Pokémon SHEILD

I get a different feeling from these gyms and the ones up until black and white. It never crossed my mind that the battles where a crowd event in the older games. These new battles feel a lot like sport tournaments. The music gives it a energy boost as well :3

A dark gym finally

[@TsukyTheDark]

Burn status reduces Attack stat and intimidates lowers it by one stage, all you needed to do was to use Water Gun that uses Special Attack stat instead. Also, Carcoal would have done good too, being rock type and such.
