Gym Puzzles

With every new game set has come new gyms. And many of these gyms have featured puzzles to be solved in order to reach the gym leader.
I thought it might be interesting to speculate what puzzles are in store for us at the Shinou gyms.

Gym Puzzles are good but they shouldn't make them so hard because in Ruby and Sapphire I couldn't battle half of the trainers the first time. X_X

I like gym puzzles. The problem is that they're too short- turn the Gyms into proper dungeons, complete with themed puzzles and even traps!

There was a 2 floor gym in C/G/S where you gey up to clair,but 2 floor as a standard would be great:)
I do like puzzles,I hope they bring some,and make them challenging at that:)

And I think instead of prograssing through the elite 4 you should go upwards and fight on the top.

Methinks there should be a floor with giant eggs on them, maybe fifteen? One has a hole under when clicked on, and this hole leads to the leader. Others have nothing, trainers, and one even has a new baby pokemon that you recieve if you can defeat the gym leader, as it will transport or w.e. to the leader frantically. Otherwise, if you don't find the baby, you just recieve the regular rewards from the leader.

How about even GETTING to the Gym? Aside from the very first town, they should make it impossible to enter the Gym before you complete a quest or finish a certain dungeon. Things like the Cinnibar Mansion or the Lake of Rage/Hidden Rocket Hideout really add more to the Gym.

As for inside the Gyms, make them like fortresses! Make them like funhouses! Make them like castles! We only get 8 per region -- let's make 'em last!

As opposed to a puzzle where you push stuff around, I'd prefer events like the maze in Brawly's gym only longer like a floor on the Battle Pyramid. ALso, a gym could have about 20 trainers that all look like the gym leader, but aren't and you have to beat X of them for the real gym leader to come down and fight you.

Would putting wild Pokemon in the Gyms be a bad idea?

For Gyms, I think they should have Zelda's dungeon-style puzzles. Pushing blocks, defeating Trainers in rooms to unlock the next...maybe even keys and treasure chests containing TMs and stuff.

I kinda like the Emerald Mosdeep Gym. I think a combo of that and the various forms of the Trick Master's House would make a great gym.

i want them to be alot more challenging, like in gold/silver/crystal with the clair obstacle

and also the gym puzzle in mosdeep for emerald, aand would it hurt to put wild pokemon in gyms, like rock pokemon will be found in rock type gms etc..
now that would make the gyms really cool!!

and maybe making hard to get in the gyms, like you always have to complete a task to get in the gym, like the whitney task in g/s/c/. i love the gym puzzles and really want them alot more complicated

or how about like the trickmaster?

Hello,there, triple poster. Perhaps you would be kind enough to read the rules.
Anyway, I think every single gym should have a puzzle.

great idea and the people you battle on this quest pokemon would be just a little weaker then the gym leaders pokemon just perfect for training up

plus i think that the gym leader shouldn't accept your challenge if he/she doesn't think your ready.

and the gyms should also have like depending on what type your going up agaist lets say water you fight on a pool like in the anime and you pokemon should stay on the platforms if they can't fly or swim.

plus they should make the gyms look different like in the anime ash goes to fight the fortree gym and they were placed on top of a building to fight so the flying pokemon can reach there full pontential i think this should also be part of the new gyms

and they should all look different i mean from the outside and in just like in the anime
