    If it were up to you, what elemental attribute would you give the gym leaders of the next generation? It can be your favourite elements, ones you think are under-used, etc. Do the league too if you want.

    Personally, this would be mine;

    1. Ghost
    2. Steel
    3. Fairy
    4. Dragon
    5. Ice
    6. Fire
    7. Grass
    8. Dark

    My train of thought for the first four would be to put a bit of pressure on the player. Say for example at the very start of the game you wouldn't find many different types of Pokémon other than normal- having a ghost gym as the very first one you face would mean that you would have to rely solely on your starter to get by with fire/water/grass attacks. The others are just elements I like.

    I would want a Dark gym leader for the very last fight as this would be their first debut. I find it kind of ridiculous that the Dark type was introduced way back in Gen II, we're now on Gen VI and still not one gym leader to speak of! The Fairy type came with X/Y and there's a leader for that one. I think it'd be pretty sweet.

    Water or bug types. Do I have to nerf myself for noobie trainers, or can I wipe them out with Scizor or Gyarados.
