Valerie is the coolest-looking one to me. Olympia comes in second. Ramos is adorable and Wulfric looks hilarious. Very happy with the Gym Leader line-up this time around.

Drasna is already one of my favorite E4 members of all time.

I expected Diantha to be the new Champion, and I was not disappointed. She has an awesome design, awesome music, and an awesome team.

Madame Olympia is my favorite Leader this time, hands down. The silver medal goes to Valerie. (almost the same as you, Underachiever007)

I really liked our Pokémon League Trainers this time, both Leaders and Elite Four.

To me, one of the most neat Gym Leaders this generation is Valerie. :) I mean, her eyes are a very attractive part of her, and really work with her being a Fairy-Type trainer. n_n Plus her outfit is pretty neat too!

Can I just say, for the record, [spoil] Everyone knew Diantha would be champion [/spoil]

Here is what I'm thinking.

Valerie owns the first place. Second belongs to Olympia.

Elite Four goes like: Siebold=Malva>Drasna>Wikstrom.

And of course...

there is no Dark gym. I'm just going to assume

Nope.

Bug, Rock, Fighting, Grass, Electric, Fairy, Psychic, Ice.

They must have something against the idea of a Dark Gym.

The funny thing is, I didn't finish what I was going to say. I should really wait after waking up to try and say something on here.

Maybe Dark is only an Elite Four type to them. I don't know. Every generation, I won't get my hopes up for a Dark gym.

I hate to be a partypooper here but the Elite 4 theme for this generation is disappointing... It doesn't give off a feeling of anticipation or suspense. I also wish Wulfric was a dark gym leader instead and had dark attire and appearance instead of an Ice gym leader to mark the first dark gym leader. Aside that, I'm satisfied with the gym leader lineup. Generic with the rock, psychic and fighting leaders but I think it plays for a good conglomerate this time around :)

I'm going to try and avoid spoiling myself too much here though I know pretty much everything there is to know about them.
The Elite 4 are really awesomely designed. I'm happy with the unique types that GF chose for each member!
I do hope that in a rematch they use 6 mons with one mega-evo each!

I'm just going to be very vague so I don't spoil anything. Name of last city is not creative at all. Its too similar to another region's name. That lineup is very very bad. Looking from all the details game feels more of like 3rd game opposed to a brand new game. I understand the 3d models and world must have taken alot of time. Just feels like a new feature should have been used alot more than it was.

probably going to have to wait for the... third version :(

I have to say, Valerie is so awesome but is it just me, or is there somthing might creepy about her too?

Also:

No Dark gym is just so... crappy... man- why 4 generations on has that not happened?! I genuinely don't understand why; there must surely be some sort of taboo about it. We have several Dark type specialists anyway, what is the difference? Mega disapoints :( also that we have another Electric gym! Why? Buh :L

Could anyone please say what the E4 types are but not in the correct order or without any reference to who they are, please? :3

In general I like the gym leaders. My complaints:

why cant a grass type gym ever be farther along?
ice type gym has been in the last 3 regions in a row and always around the same position ENOUGH ALREADY!
a dark type gym would be amazing to see but its obviously never going to happen

There is, and I think it was intentional.

She dresses all cute, but then those eyes... almost fully black, I think that's supposed to be a little uncanny.

Perhaps it's because fairies are usually "cute", but still supernatural, mysterious, so they're a little unsettling.
