Journeys is taking a lot of cues from the games in general. I wonder if Gary will be the Viridian City Gym Leader. It doesn’t look like it so far, but perhaps he could be taking on the position temporarily (even though they REALLY should’ve found a new permanent Gym Leader by now).I thik Journeys is going with the latest games to decide a trainers status
The latest unova games had Iris as champion so they go with that
The latest Kanto games LGPE had Lance as Elite 4, they go with that
The latest hoenn games ORAS had Steven as champion, so I can see them going with that as well when he appears for Masters 8
