Uh I'm pretty sure Unova is based solely on NYC... only mentioned Pyramid because they're common in desert areas in videogames.

Ehh... I do like the idea of a gym being in a pyaramid, with lots of traps to keep raiders out leading up to the gym leader who uses ghost types (His/Her signature pokemon being Cofagrigus). He could also have a sigiyliph and/or Golurk.

Look into the jain temple in ranakpur (In the thar desert) if you don't like the idea of the pyramids. Religious symbols might want to be removed however just to keep a neutral stance.

Touche, however, Unova was like a smaller version of the U.S.A. The deserts were supposed to be like the deserts out west. (Arizona, New Mexico, etc.) Egypt is a liiiittle too far away from India to make this jump, imo. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid#India

Maybe we could put a pyramid just for having a pyramids sake I dont think its much of an addition for the game, so just having a small desertish town is fine as it is. Its been a long time since we have seen a double battle in a gym (welp ORAS is a repeat and is almost exactly the same) RSE but still I really like the concept and having a VGC style battle with the GL with two overleved pokemon was a really hard yet fun chalenge.

Also, who will be the gym leaders? Perhaps, if the towns are to be anagrams of room names on PS!, we could have the leaders be one of the room owners. (And if two or more exist, then the battle between them could be a double or triple battle, much like with Tate and Liza.)

I agree with some of that, and disagree with other parts of that. -I feel the Ground gym shouldn't be the 8th gym, but it should be in the late-game. The Thar Desert just doesn't feel like something you would visit right before the end. We could visit the Thar Desert earlier and simply have the gym closed off until the end, like Viridian City gym. Reading This, and seeing its 7th-water, 8th-ground with desert themes and a closed gym, it gave me quite the idea. I suggest we put 7th ground and 8th-water with an interesting plot twist. The water gym would be closed as Ace suggested, instead of the ground, with a solid reason, that could be a plotministory: The ground gym leader's actions/doing is causing the land to be deserted ( apparently to his suiting) and the water leader is there to protest and help the people. When you visit his gym, you learn that he is absent, and when you reach gym #7, you find the leader arguing with an unknown person, both about to battle. Upon your intrusion, as challenger, the water leader entrusts you(perhaps you'd have met before and became allies/friends) with stoping ground leader. Upon your victory, the ground leader's defeats makes him consider his actions, etc, and the water leader reveals his identity, stating he is wait to exeprience your kind heart's power at his final gym. This is a bit into the plot, but mainly leader related. I hope my idea is liked

I think that the gym leaders should actually be part of the villainous team trying to stop you from defeating the boss. And each one have like a "dangerous" puzzle.

I think we should have a gym for these types (all dualtyped gyms)(in this order): Rock and Steel Grass and Bug Ghost and Dark Water and Ice Fairy and Psychic Fighting and Normal Dragon and Fire Electric and Poison? and the gym leaders be parts of the villainous team, and have like each one of them have a dangerous puzzle, like steel and rock being where you have to jump from rock to rock without trainers seeing you, grass and bug being where you have to walk on leaves, ghost and dark being you have to make it through an invisible maze that has invisible floor and changes every like 15 seconds, Water and ice being where you have to sldie across water and ice, etc etc etc. We may already have the types for the gym leaders [thx to Snaq].

oh ok, I just was putting out ideas for the types. I was too tired when writing that up to check if the types were already set.

I'm up for discussing dual-typed gyms, though I'd prefer to keep to the original, even if it's just because you they can focus on one thing better. We'll probablly give them a wild card anyway. (Medicham in DPP) for candice.

I'll be using single-typed gyms for now, since I didn't get a reply in ~20 hours.

I prefer monotype gyms anyway. Remember Volkner in Diamond and Pearl? His gym felt so off.

Here's an idea I had. For gyms seven and eight (from Snaquaza's list), we could have them be the same gym. For the seventh badge, however, it would be the villainous people that have taken over the gym. You have to defeat them so the actual gym leader and trainers can get their gym back. When you defeat the villains, they drop a badge that they stole from another reason, and the player considers it as the seventh badge. Then, after doing the legendary encounter between badges seven and eight (Like in DPP when you have to go to the top of Mount Coronet to catch Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina, respectively), you go back to the same gym and defeat the actual gym trainers and leader. Snaquaza, for this to be possible, I propose that we switch the Water-type gym and the Dark-type gym. Please give thoughts.

You can still get the droped dark gym badge, and leave water as it is. I dont see 2 gyms in one beneficial to the game however, as it cuts the map in a way, and lessens traveing, which is a great part of the game. Your idea is a bit similar to mine up a few posts tho

I think 1 gym should be out in the open, with like ground features as the puzzle instead of an actual gym. Obviously, this would be an outdoorsy type and such.
If we have a double battle gym, they only be a doubletyped gym.
Honestly, the details of gyms depend a lot on the plot, which in turn depends on the map, which you need gym details to make, wooo catch 22

A Dark Gym is definitely needed, as there has not been a single Dark Type Gym in the history of the main games to date, and only 2 Elite Four Members specialized in Dark typing, and they were low ladder.

Are they actually gyms? or are we doing the whole outpost thing where you need to take back the gym?

how about that: the gyms are not fixed in order (and so also in level)
that means, all gyms are at the same level from the begging. (eg. around lvl 15), if you beat 1 gym, the level for the other gyms is increased by 5 (so all other gyms are about lvl 20 now). that repeats after every gym, resulting in this: 1. gym ~ lvl 15 5. gym ~ lvl 20 3. gym ~ lvl 25 4. gym ~ lvl 30 5. gym ~ lvl 35 6. gym ~ lvl 40 7. gym ~ lvl 45 8. gym ~ lvl 50
this could either be the max lvl of a mon in this gym, or the average. if it's the average maybe the level is a bit to high, and we start with 13, but thats details.

While it wouldn't hurt to have a split in the path somewhere (where you choose which gym to go to, then you go to the other one), having no fixed order would leave players without a path to follow. Being too linear is a problem, but so is not being linear at all.

i agree, there should be a given path. but a path can also be given outside of the gym story, with the rivals, evil teams and some other events.
maybe this can be splitted, in 4/4 or 2/3/3 or similar things

I think there should be 1. A rock type gym (cause there is almost every time) 2. A ghost type gym (cause wynaut?) 3.A psychic/Dark gym (first double typed gym) 5.An electric type gym (make it in the big city) 6. A bug gym. (Make it hard as hell with mega pinsir:-) ) 7. Ground type gym (I agree) 8. Poison type gym (we had Roxie but we need a higher level one) These are just suggestions. I don't care if they are not in the game feel free to say anything about it;-)
