If you were a Gym Leader or Elite Four, what type of pokemon would you use?

**Fluffyy** · 2nd September 2012, 7:06 AM

I would probably be a Dragon Type Gym Leader like Lance, Drayden and Claire. I would use 6 pokemon, and use the pokemon..

Dragonite -
Haxorus -
Hydreigon -
Kingdra -
Charizard - (Yeah I know he's not a dragon-type)
Garchomp -

**dirkac** · 6th September 2012, 2:05 AM

Grass gym Leader The 7th.

Parasect
Jumpluff
Cacturne
Tropius
Breloom

Because as a champion , ur gonna nid many type and charizard , gyarados and aerodactyl looks like dragon thats why lance uses it

**OceanicLanturn** · 6th September 2012, 9:40 AM

I'd be water gym leader with a shirt, unlike most, using a water mono-type with multiple varieties

- Ludicolo
- Politoed
- Lanturn
- Azumarill
- Blastoise
- Swampert

Or maybe to a certain extent: Steel type
- Steelix
- Aggron
- Mawile
- Skarmory
- Scizor
- Metagross

Or maybe even electric?
- Lanturn
- Manetric
- Jolteon
- Ampharos
- Magneton
- Electabuzz

and... never mind I'll stop

**Royal_Qeca** · 6th September 2012, 10:35 AM

^This is about the 3rd Generation aka only the first 386 pokemon.

Oops sorry. I'll edit my posts then

**Auaria~** · 6th September 2012, 11:00 PM

Psychic and/or Ghost.

**Deadrose** · 10th September 2012, 10:13 PM

I've never thought about that. I'd probably be a Dark type leader, cause it's one of my favorite types.
Houndoom
Tyranitar
Sharpedo
Cacturne
Umbreon
Sableye

**tyranitarenthusiast** · 10th September 2012, 10:16 PM

i would be a dark type leader but my match with the player would be a double battle. my team would be.

tyranitar
bisharp
sharpedo
weavile
houndoom
hydreigon

**Sceptile Leaf Blade** · 23rd September 2012, 12:03 PM

I'd use Grass types, like:

Venusaur
Meganium
Exeggutor
Ludicolo
Cradily
Sceptile (as the big boss)

**Kirisame Marisa** · 23rd September 2012, 12:42 PM

... This is a 3rd gen post, guys... Why are some of you using 5th gen?

Anyway, I'd like to be Flying and probably:
Pidgeot
Murkrow
Togetic
Altaria
Charizard
Aerodactyl

**Plus side down side** · 23rd September 2012, 7:02 PM

Either grass:
Ivysaur
Shiftry
Jumpluff
Parasect
Breloom
Cacturn

Or bug:
Butterfree
Beautifly
Venomoth
Volbeat
Ninjask
Pinsir

**AquaMilotic** · 24th September 2012, 2:31 PM

Water is my favourite type, so my type choice is pretty much clear.

- Azumarill
- Lapras
- Dewgong
- Lumineon
- Swanna
- Milotic

Reserves at the Gym (that would be anime-wise): Feraligatr, Blastoise, Seaking, Lanturn, Mantine, Swampert, Corsola, Vaporeon, Walrein, Gorebyss, Luvdisc, Jellicent, Floatzel, Kingdra, Seadra, Finneon, Totodile, Tentacruel, Alomomola, Frillish, Octillery.

**Fire Hero** · 6th October 2012, 7:58 AM

Fire-type, undoubtedly ^^

Maybe not a Fire monotype because that's easily countered, but a sun-based team with maybe 4 Fire-types would be a good Gym/E4 team.

Actually my first and only Emerald runthrough had a Fire monotype. It was a pain to beat Wallace in the league but I did it

I don't remember my exact team but I remember breeding my Blaziken and went with one physical version and a special version.

**An Enemy Spy** · 6th October 2012, 5:41 PM

Bug Type. Bugs always seem to get the shaft in Pokemon, along with Poison. There's barely any Bug moves, so you can't take advantage of STAB. What's with that?
Heracross
Beautifly
Dustox
Maquerain
Pinsir
Shedinja

There certainly are Bug moves. For example, Bug Buzz, Silver Wind, X-Scissor, Bug Bite, Megahorn and Signal Beam are pretty nice Bug moves.

**Jacobthepokemonfreak** · 6th October 2012, 10:48 PM

basic gym leader (Hoenn):
Steelix
Magneton (and if it was 5th gen then eviolite magneton, i hate magnezone)
Aerodactyl
Skarmory
Aggron
Metagross

Champion:
Swampert
Absol
Gardevoir
Magneton (eviolite 5th gen)
Salamence
Ninetales

........hey, i can get all my fave in the 3rd gen....just noticed that

**Flying Ludo** · 7th October 2012, 3:15 AM

FLYING. Flying all the way.

Or, I could invent the very first shiny pokemon gym.

**TherianForm** · 7th October 2012, 10:47 AM

Probably Steel, or maybe Dragon they'd be cool

**Auaria~** · 7th October 2012, 3:53 PM

Ghost or Psychic.
For Ghost, I'd use: Gengar, Misdreavus, Banette, and Dusclops. (In the 3rd gen games, respectively.)
For Psychic, I'd use: Gardevoir, Alakazam, Espeon, Hypno, Grumpig, and Wobbuffet.

**andyhaj** · 14th October 2012, 10:10 PM

I'd use the Psychic type.
My team would consist of Jynx, Starmie, Alakazam, Exeggutor and Metagross.

**Raizoken** · 16th October 2012, 3:36 AM

I would be a grass type gym leader

I'd use:

Nuzleaf
Roselia
Cacturne
Cradily
Ludicolo
and as my strongest
Leafeon

**azeem40** · 16th October 2012, 8:02 PM

I'd probably be like Gary and have a mixed team.

**Rosez66** · 16th October 2012, 8:31 PM

I would use the ground type like giovanni. He was the most badass gym leader back in rby days and he looked like a mafia boss. His nidoking and queen were awesome.
Pokemon would be
Nidoking
Nidoqueen
Rypehrior
Dugtrio

**Buuz** · 17th October 2012, 8:04 AM

I'd probably be a fire type gym leader. I actually want to use a fire team with pokémon from Sinnoh and Unova as well, but since this is 3rd Gen we're talking about, i will go with these guys:

Charizard
Typhlosion
Blaziken
Arcanine
Houndoom
Torkoal

Yeah, all three fully evolved fire starters. Much better than Magcargo and Camerupt, that's for sure.
