Topic: Who's your favorite Gym Leader?

I tried to look this up but couldn't find an existing thread.

So who's your favorite gym leader out of all the pokemon games, and what makes them deserving to be your favorite? It could be the pokemon they own, how they battle, their battle theme, their appearance, etc.

Mine is Cynthia because of her epic battle music and, of course, her looks.

It was hard finding a non-suggestive picture of her. You try googling Cynthia + Pokemon.

Haha, I search for it... I understand you...
I think my favorite gym-leader is Brock...
Not because of his battling tactic but because he traveled for long with Ash...
When you see the battle between him and Ash, you could never thinked of he would travel with Ash xD

I can understand that. After a while you grow attached to Brock and his humor, lol

My favorite gym leader would have to be Blaine, only because in the games he was my favorite to battle. (I love using water type pokemon)

I always liked Falkner because it was always so strange fighting a flying-type gym as the first one, and yet, it was the most fun.

Since when is Cynthia a Gym Leader?

One of the most memorable ones is Norman with his Slaking. Darn, that was tough, even if you bring Fighting-types. Facade did lots of damage and if you tried to paralyze him, the power of that move would be doubled.

Blue. His name is so unoriginal I feel bad for him. Who names a kid Blue anyway?

Whitney, unless you traded Abra for Machop, Miltank would always be a tough contender.

Cynthia is not and will never be a gym leader.

I can't decide on just one.... But my original favorite was Misty, I even spent the whole first generation training only water pokemon! _{i think i even had a crush on her when i was 8}

Other important mentions are Erika and her sleep aphnea, Whitney and her rather annoying strategy, Jasmine and her "jump down 20 floors and bring medicine for my pokemon" shy attitude, Norman and his "i live here, your mother lives there and i don't care where you live" idea of a happy family and Fantina and her weird sense of fashion.

Oh, and Sabrina <3

Hmm...I guess an Elite Four Chapmion isn't exactly a gym leader, huh? Okay, then.

My favorite Gym Leader would have to be Norman, from Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, because the battle is more than just a battle. Because he's the main character's father, the battle has a "The-Pupil-has-Surpassed-the-Teacher" kind of feel.

LT. Surge

Are you gonna cry little baby?
He also looks like Guile from Street Fighter

And why do you have a picture of Giovanni than ?

My favorite is the Dark type....oh wait....nevermind

Mine is Crasher Wake because who doesn't enjoy a masked wrestler that uses....water pokemon. I can respect that!

Falkner,Volkner and Candice.

He's not a gym leader anymore...
Blue took over The Gym.

darn you Gary Oak

I like them all, but Sabrina is my all time favorite.

Watching the Anime, i'm kinda growing attached to Iris & Cilan. :3

Winona. Flying-type FTW.

I like Brock and Misty for obvious reasons but I guess gary Oak was cool for Silver...

After playing the remake I finally find out Bugsy's a dude! 0_0

My favorite Gym Leader was Wallace.

He was awesome! In Emerald he let you into the cave in Sootopolis (or whatever his gym's town is called) to capture Groudon!

And he was the champion in Emerald, too

If not him, then Norman. It's awesome to battle your dad and win!
