My favorite gym of all time is Jasmine's gym because no stupid puzzle, no annoying gym trainers and the pokemon are cake walk for Quillava. Yes, I want my time to be spent on better things like talking to my Mewtwo (HGSS) or preparation for glitches (GSC) As for Jasmine herself, I as a kind of a feet guy like her a lot. Not quite as I like Bea, Nessa or some of the Maylene and Phoebe arts (the latter two aren't feminine enough to me because of short hair) though.

Kalos doesn’t slack when it comes to good gym design either. Regardless of what you think of the challenge presented in battle, or lack of, most gyms have unique visual identity. Olympia’s gym is not one you’ll forget for aesthetic, putting a twist on the warp tile puzzle by having it be interlocking pieces of a layered globe like structure.

If they had made one change to the spikemouth challenge it definitely would've been my favorite. The idea of making your way through a town filled with what you think is the evil team only to realize that it was actually the gym challenge all along just seems so cool. It does suck that the town itself is just one hallway (when they could've made it a maze of back alleys) but I have to give them the credit on the idea.

The third feels way to relaxing, loving it. The fourth is way better than in bw1, the fifth is also a big improvment and those ore, it makes light! The sixth is really a fun maze. The seventh is just really awsome in comparison with The other dragon type gym in The previous game. And The Last one is really really marvelous. Tbh bw2 are just the best.

Elesa’s BW2 Gym hands down. Sure it’s puzzle consists of “Walk Forward and battle a Trainer”, but it’s concept and personality makes up for it tenfold. The idea of walking on a catwalk in front of thousands of fans fits Elesa’s role as a Model, and the music coming to a climax with that “Give me what I need!” when Elesa is revealed is in your face, flashy, and electrifying. The icing on the cake has to be Elesa and her crew walking with you down the catwalk after probably the most difficult gym battle in Unova. In all it’s a gym with so much personality and charm that reflect’s Elesa’s personality perfectly.

My favorites are basically based solely on aesthetics because that’s a huge thing for me. Kanto: Celadon in HGSS because of the greenhouse design. Also love Cerulean in HGSS and Saffron Let’s Go. Johto: It’s a simple design, but I’ve always loved both designs of the Azalea Gym. Blackthorn is also great and Mahogany in HGSS. Hoenn: Sootopolis because of the theme. Also love Fortree in ORAS. Sinnoh: Eterna. Love both the forest maze and especially the clock design in Platinum. Hearthome in Platinum and Sunyshore are great as well. Unova: Humilau is my favorite because I love Water-types and the gym is just designed beautifully. Also love the BW1 versions of Nimbasa and Mistralton with the roller coaster and cannons. Kalos: Coumarine. Love the idea of climbing up a giant grass jungle gym. Also love Laverre and Cyllage. Anistar would be great if the paths branched out more. Galar: Not a huge fan of most of them. Hulbury at least feels like a gym and the teacup game in Stow-on-side is kind of cool. I want to say Ballonlea because it’s such a cool looking town, but the gym was a letdown.

Dark types trainers got decent coverage as Elite Four members at least, even if Gen II didn’t have enough Dark types to have a full dark type roster for Karen. Hoenn’s Elite Four had Sidney and Unova Grimsley, and an island kahuna in SM/USUM uses Dark types (which as the gym leader counterpart kinda counts if you see it that way). But did rock type need so many gym leaders?

In Japanese the dark type is literally called "the evil type" which is why it was hard for them to come up with a dark type based and gym leader that wasn't the evil team until the stories got more complex and characters more creative. And yeah, I know there are elite 4 members, but they're final bosses rather than "guides" on our journey, so.

My picks for the best gyms. Same rules apply but it doesn't need to be challenging OR a puzzle for me to like it. Gen 1: Pewter City Gym Simple but very aesthetically pleasing. Not to mention its the first gym in the series (unless you skip Brock because Gen 1 RBY were broken messes) Gen 2: Ecruteak City Gym Despite how frustrating it is to fall, the gimmick of having to navigate through the dark without falling is amazing when you get the hang of it. Plus, Morty is the most balanced Gen 2 Gym Leader imo. Not to easy like Chuck or Falkner but not overly hard like Whitney or Clair. Gen 3: Lavaridge City Gym The puzzle is very implemental of Lavaridge's hot spring gimmick. Sure, Flannery's a joke, but I still like the whole aesthetic of the Gym, especially with the overhanging steam. Gen 4: Eterna City Gym I love the forest maze in DP and the way the flower moves like a clock in Platinum is entertaining. Plus, for a Grass Type Gym Leader, Gardenia does pose a decent challenge with Roserade (unless you use Chimchar) Gen 5: Opelucid City Gym DRAGON STATUES! I don't need to say anything else. Gen 6: Courmarine City Gym While Ramos is an absolute joke (then again, so are all the Kalos Gym Leaders) I LOVE the design and aesthetic of this gym. In fact, the same applies to all the Kalos Gyms. Gen 8: Spikemuth City Gym This one wins because its the first Dark Type Gym. That and Piers is amazing, as is Marnie, who becomes Gym Leader in the post-game. Update: Paldea: Glaseado Gym I love the minigame. It reminds me of Empoleon's Snow Slide from Poképark Wii

Fighting Candice is the only good part of this Gym.

And Black/White 2 is Roxie (Virbank City) (It’s the worst Gym out of the almost flawless perfect Gyms in this game). Kalos: Ramos (Most underwhelming and dissappointing Gym in the entire game) Galar: Milo (Just a basic Gym that can be pretty forgettable) I hope you like my personal opinions on my favorite and least favorite Gyms in every region!! ❤️😊

Well... I can only really comment on Hoenn, Unova, Kalos, and Galar... So... My favorites were Flannery's Gym in Hoenn, Elesa's gym in Unova (both times just fit her personality so spectacularly, and the dual volt switch Emolgas are pretty iconic), for Kalos I think Valerie's gym (it wasn't a hard battle, but the theming of the gym is just so immaculate), and for Galar my favorite was Milo's (again, not the strongest by any means, but HERDING THE WOOLOO WAS SO FUN!!! Though Melody was also great. And I loved Opal and Allister so much as characters).

Also the only mandatory trainer in the gym mission in Circhester is actually the one with just Snom in the Shield version, Sword replaces him with a more competent Boldore, though neither it nor Gordie's Shuckle has Sturdy. Melony is indeed the better gym leader in Circhester, and it's mainly the Eiscue and gigantamax Lapras. Ironic that I had to grind Scorbunny to level 70 just to even have a chance against Melony for precisely this reason.

The striaton gym in bw1 is such missed opportunity to have been a triple battle gym. They could have made it the 2nd or 3rd gym if they didn't want to have the new battle style right off the bat but it seems gamefreak abandoned the idea as soon as they thought of it with barely having any triple battles in bw1. Same with rotation battles. They added a few more battles in bw2 and added new gym leaders which they could have made into triple or rotation battle gym leaders like tate and liza being a double battle in gen 3. Hopefully gen 5 remakes can make striaton a triple battle but I doubt it.

@@jaretco6423 that's the catch - I don't enjoyed BW . I think if I liked my playthrough of White, I'd probably try Black2, but White was the least visually appealing Pokemon game I've ever played (awkward mix of 3D and 2D, constantly breaking and morphing sprites...) and a lot of new Pokemon designs were awful to look at. Alola and Galar have my two least favorite pokemon (Eiscue and Mimikyu), but Unova on average have the worst bunch - three identical monkeys, trash bags, ice creams, gears, snowflake, Bert and Ernie in taekwondo clothes, two identical buff men legendaries with third being Black version exclusive, Machop line rip-offs, Poliwag line rip-offs, Geodude line rip-offs and the most painful one - not a good regional bird (I love Pidgeot, Fearow, Noctowl, Swellow, Pelipper, Staraptor, Toucannon and Corviknight and Talonflame is literally my most favourite pokemon of all 900+ I want a shoulder tattoo with Talonflame, it was painful to see people use something as dissapointing as Unfezant in Unova, especially a boring female Unfezant)... I don't even like one starter line as a whole - I hate Snivy and Servine, I hate Oshawott and I hate Emboar. If I want my brilliant Serperior or Samurott, I'm forced to pick the starter I don't like and level it up to 17 or even 36. If I want to pick my cute Tepig - I'm forced to give my Pignite an everstone. Unova is the worst...

I gotta disagree about Circhester in Galar. Yes it's fun the first time and it's a cool aesthetic, I think it becomes the most annoyingly tedious gym challenge in the region after the first playthrough. I think Stow-on-side's gym, primarily in shield, takes the cake for me. It's fun every time, even if fairly easy, and the Ghost gym leader to me might be the toughest gym fight in Galar if you haven't planned your team specifically for it. Just my opinion though! I still love Circhester, just not my favorite personally.

I don´t think Melony is stronger than Gordie. Sure, she has won againts Raihan but Gordie is stated to be considered one of the most likely candidates to be a future champion in the Galar region and has a huge fan club. But I do agree that the gym mission for that gym is awesome. Bea´s gym mission is also pretty fun and I think it fits better than with Allister.

For worst gyms, my Kanto vote is for Vermillion. Not only do you need to make the SS Anne detour if you haven’t traded over a Pokemon with Cut (or you decide until you’ve beaten Koga and jumped though the hoops to get Surf), but the puzzle itself is entirely luck based in how randomised it is. Relying on trial and error simply to proceed isn’t good gym design, and when past experience counts for nothing in navigating faster it’s very bad gym design. At least you can memorise where the walls of the Fuschia city gym maze are, and which direction titles to take in Viridian.

Surge Johto: Chuck Hoenn: Wallace Sinnoh: Fantina B/W: Brycen B2/W2: Roxie X/Y: Grant and Korrina Sw/Sh: Piers no contest Edit: Least Favorite Gym Leaders Kanto: Giovanni Johto: Falkner without a doubt Hoenn: Juan (I like him but the Hoenn Gym Leaders👌) Sinnoh: Volkner (If The Underground family wasn't a thing then Byron) Unova: Marlon no contest Kalos: Olympia bc at least Ramos is chilling, Olympia looks like she's on next level Acid Galar: Kabu

Kanto: Viridian City. This gym is quite aesthetically pleasing as both a mysterious, difficult gym and the lair of Team Rocket’s Boss. Johto: Ecruteak City. Similar reasons to you, its atmospheric and actually difficult, which is hard to say for many of the gyms. Hoenn: Sootopolis City (Gen 3). Same reasons stated in the video. Lavaridge Town (Gen 6). This gym is far more interesting to look at in my opinion, and it uses the location well, that being next to an active volcano. Sinnoh: Snowpoint City (DP/BDSP). Same reasons in the video Hearthome City (Pt). This gym is TERRIBLE in the DP versions of Sinnoh, but is amazing in Platnium. My reasoning is similar to the Ecruteak City reasoning. Unova: Nimbasa City (BW). This gym is simply fun. Roller Coasters, Neon Lights everywhere, and a leader that needs proper strategy to beat. Castelia City (B2W2). Now THIS is how you make a Pokémon Gym. A unique gimmick and that gimmick relates to the typing of the leader, plus how it relates to Burgh’s profession? Kalos: Cyllage City. You took the words on why i liked it right out of my mouth. Galar: Spikemuth. I love the East London aesthetic of the area. Piers is also a great leader. The gym mission is alright, not as good as Motostoke or Circhester, but the area makes up for it completely.
