I'm sure everyone remembers the PR fumble with that interview with the western gaming outlet that had the translator erroneously implying there would be 18 Gyms in Sw/Sh when that was merely background lore surrounding the Major and Minor Leagues. I personally didn't give it much thought after that - especially since I don't recall it actually coming up in the game's plot itself, but after a certain reveal in the Isle of Armour DLC...
It got me thinking about this concept again, particularly whether we're likely to ever see any of the other 8 type using Gym Leaders - whether it be in possible future DLCs or in the anime.
What do you guys think about the concept of the Major/Minor League - interesting world building or pointless fluff? Also, do you guys think we'll ever see the rest of them? If so, what would you like to see in these potential characters? From their design to their Gyms to their Pokémon team, I'm sure y'all have got some great ideas. I know I have a few myself which hopefully I'll have time to share one day.
Namely that Mustard used to be the Fighting Type Gym Leader sometime in the past before becoming the Champion.
