Character Discussion Thread

[yourlilemogirl]

Howdy all,

The world needs to know!, of the thus far revealed Black 2/White 2 Gym Leaders, what are your opinions?
-Are their designs easily identifiable, or do you think they could've gone a different route?
-Do you suspect they may be a replacement for the old Gym Leaders of Black/White? Why or why not? And replacing who?

Things to remember:
Normal Forum Rules Apply. As do the B2/W2 forum rules.
If this gets out of hand, I will have no other option but to close this thread until you all can show you can handle differing opinions than your own.
And have fun! In the end, it's just a game.

So have at it! If you have anything else on your mind about the Gym Leaders, feel free to discuss it here.
Happy posting everyone :3

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I love the water type GL he looks pretty awesome! and There are great water Pokes in genV so he could have a interesting team! Yess it looks like he will be the 1 to beat so tepig bad choice this time around!

As for Brad Michaels Poison Love child she has an awesome design and I can imagine her kicking some ass with Scolipede! just interested where her gym is!? Wouldn't surprise me if it's Hiun cause she is a rocker girl in a big city!

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I'm keen. The little Poison chickie actually looks pretty original, which is something we don't see too often. None of the BW Gym Leaders were particularly memorable (at least in their design. I will never forget 'I am this town's Gym Leader, and also a model.') No real idea where they'll be located or anything, though . . . I can't see them replacing existing leaders, so my only guess would be that they're in the west on the newly inhabited part of the region, with two of the BW gyms closed off because of all the ice to keep a total of eight.

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I like that we're getting new gym leaders. I think they'll replace the first two gyms that were in BW, as we have a new starting town that eventually links to Castelia City (if I'm not mistaken).

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

Yay! I liked both of them, specially the tanned version of Crasher Wake.
And I want more new leaders, actually the only one I want to remain is Iris, because I want to see her older self.

Dark, Fire and Steel gym leaders would be very cool.

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

The water gym leader is HOT. And the poison gym leader is nice too.

 

[Force Fire]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

As I said in the old thread, it would be uber trolling if the Gym types were those of Kanto's.

I do like the Gym Leaders they look better than some of the current Unova GLs.

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

Sort of both Yay and Nay. I like the poison Leader because we haven't had one since gen 2(Not counting remakes). But we've had too many water gym leaders(Counting Cress as one)

Misty
Wallace
Juan
Wake
Cress
Shizui

 

[Pyradox]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

Kind of neutral on Shizui, but Homika's an immediate YAY. I mean, a Poison type gym leader who plays the guitar? That is so awesome I don't even know what else to say.

I can't see them replacing existing leaders, so my only guess would be that they're in the west on the newly inhabited part of the region, with two of the BW gyms closed off because of all the ice to keep a total of eight.

That's my bet for what's happening too.

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I love Homika. First Poison-type Gym Leader since Kanto? Awesome. Badass young girl? Awesome. Rocker with Scolipede guitar? Super awesome. Her whole design is just pure win and awesome. I'm hoping we see some interesting-looking, awesome Gym Leaders like her.

Shizui, I'm still taking down. Bothered by that ambiguous tan business. I want to think he's dark because tanning THAT much cannot be healthy. From the screenies we can see near him, his Gym looks cool. And he gets props from me for being hot

So far liking the Gym Leaders. Hopefully if we get any more, they'll stay terrific.

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I love both new gym leaders. The Water gym is the first in line I think. Poison would be the second and may be located in Castelia, replacing Burgh. It seemed always weird that the biggest and most advanced city in the Pokemon world had a Bug-type gym. ^^

 

[Vyrron]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I like the J-rock gym leader, she looks pretty cool. The water gym leader...not so much, idk. His face looks awkward to me, and that tan-line?... Nay. He'll probably grow on me tho.

 

[Composer]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I really like the Poison Gym girl's design. If I'm not mistaken,there weren't any new Poison-specializing Gyms since Fuchsia City Gym,so I'm looking forward to gym's design and puzzle since this one isn't ninja-themed.

About the water leader,he's sort of meh to me,but fits Unova leaders style.

 

[Joshawott]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

Homika has the only Poison-type Gym that isn't in the Fuschia City, so I'm happy about that. I'm not too sure how I feel about a new Water-type gym though; we have those in every game (Misty in RBGYFRLG/GSCHGSS, Wallace in RS, Juan in E, Crasher Wake in DPt, Cress in BW if you choose Tepig).

 

[Rare Candy]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I like the Poison leader, I hope she has a big Scolipede

The water gym leader, I don't like him, there's a lot of water type gyms too.

 

[Squishy]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I love Homika's design! I wish I could use her as an avatar. She looks so badass!

Shizui... meh. He's okay.

 

[Zeb]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I like Shizui. He at least looks water-y unlike Wallace, Juan and Cress [imo]. The tan line isn't a big deal to me. And his hair is funky-looking.

I'm not a fan of Poison-types in general (barring one or two) so Homika is just "meh". I like the band theme, though. I wonder if she'll be in Castelia, because that seems the best place for a band to play (in a busy city), rather a small little village where not many people will hear them, but the locals will just complain.

Hopefully we get to battle the rest of the band xD

 

[Spindae2]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

I'm curious if there will be difference fif U choose Snivy, tepig or Oshawott? Will there be 3 different gym depending on the starter U choose!? It's unlikely but who knows? This is full of surprises!

Edit: In the anime preview thread to Poison girl's appearing there were zoomed 2 little pics from CoroCoro! And Poison girl has 2 Pokemons! So she could be the 1 or 2 gym leader to beat!

 

[GhostLucario]

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

love the new gym leaders. They are much better than the BW ones so far.

I really like the Water GL he's HOT

and Poison GL is really cool and finally GF decided to make another Poison specialist, we hadn't had one of those since GSC. Hopefully there's also a Dark-type GL.

Re: Revealed Gym Leaders Thread: Nay or Yay?

The poison leader is interesting, lol, and Im wondering about her personality. The water leader i dont really know yet, I guess he's ok, but since not much is known about him I dont have that much an opinion on him yet.
