I'm pretty sure the football stadiums aren't gyms, since there's only 5 of them. Like some people said earlier, it's probably a side competion of sorts. It looks like they are battling in the stadium in the trailer though, so it's probably a battle oriented side challenge.
Or Parliament. There's no Pokemon battle, you just have to fistfight Theresa May.Now that I think about it, when they did Kalos they made theEiffelPrism Tower a Gym. Any chance they will also do that to the Big Ben?
Battle inside the clock tower? On top of gears and stuff? If it's anything like the Great Mouse Detective, it'll be fantasticNow that I think about it, when they did Kalos they made theEiffelPrism Tower a Gym. Any chance they will also do that to the Big Ben?
Well, the jobs of the Gym Leaders were used in Gen VI:I just hope that the Gym Leaders all have some sort of significance this time around outside of their Gyms. Gen V did a marvelous job there, which is why XY was a huge disappointment in that regard. Like maybe the Gym Leaders have "day jobs", or get integrated with the plot, or at least do SOMETHING outside of their Gyms (not counting a place like the Battle Chateau). I don't really care much about the types or themes, just as long as the Gym Leaders aren't glorified level bosses that you see once, maybe twice, in the game and then they lose all their significance after that.

Well, the jobs of the Gym Leaders were used in Gen VI:
Viola: Photography. She has photos in her gym that are displayed prominently.
Grant: Well, he likes sports like rock climbing.
Korrina: She's a skater and her Gym looks like a skate park.
Ramos: He's a gardener IIRC. His Gym is in a giant tree.
Clemont: He is an inventor and may be in charge of maintaining Prism Tower.
Valerie: She's a fashion designer that is a little loopy. Her gym fits her style.
Olympia: She seems like a fortune teller, and her Gym fits that theme.
Wulfric: Okay, you got me here. He doesn't seem to have another job aside from "Leader".
However, I do agree that they don't do much aside from being bosses.
I guess that depends on your perspective of plot though. Plot as in whatever the villainous team cooks up? Or plot as in your personal journey to become the Champion of the region?Not... really sure how I feel about Gyms coming back. Like, on one hand, it feels nice returning to the traditional formula of things, but on the other hand... Gym Leaders (with the exception of BW I believe) have historically been really unremarkable, usually having zero bearing on the plot whatsoever.

Because while their interaction varies from region to region with the former, they're instrumental in the process for the latter.
I don't think that they would do that unless the games are a Gen 5-style semi-reboot, which has been confirmed to not happen.Since there's a quite big gap between the player's house ad the next major city, I thought there would be a "basic" gym like in gen5, where the player should familiarize and get briefed with the gym/stadiums in galar so I put the first gym near the player's town.
Where did you hear about this? This would imply a drastic change in how Gyms work.So, apparently we are getting something called "Gym Masters". Thoughts?
