If you were a Gym Leader or Elite Four, what type of pokemon would you use?

[Schade]

Oh, this one's easy. I'd be a Steel-Type Elite Four With a team consisting of:

1st Match:
- Steelix
- Metagross
- Aegislash
- Magnezone

Re-match:
- Steelix
- Metagross
- Aegislash
- Bronzong
- Magnezone
- Skarmory

 

[Nesquik3D]

I suppose either Fighting, Dragon, or Electric. For Elite 4 I would use:

Fighting:
Hawlucha
Hitmontop
Primeape
Breloom

Rematch:
Hawlucha
Hitmontop
Primeape
Breloom
Pangoro
Heracross

Dragon would be Dragonite, Goodra, Flygon, and Kingdra

Electric would be Heliolisk, Jolteon, Magnezone, and Ampharos (Mega if allowed…)

 

[Lost Lore]

I suppose I'd shoot for being a Dark-type Gym leader, since it's my favorite type and I doubt I'd be quite skilled enough for the Elite Four. That's my lack of competitive battling knowledge talking, probably.

First Battle
Murkrow
Houndour
Stunky
Absol

Rematch
Umbreon
Houndoom
Sharpedo
Skuntank
Honchkrow
Absol (w/ Absolite, because why not?)

 

[SerenaForTheWin]

For gym leader maybe a fairy type, since i like reading fairy tales when i was a kid
klefki
sylveon
florges
dedenne

badge: pixie badge

Then for elite four , it will be dragon since they were my favorite type ever since pokemon began
salamence
goodra
noivern
tyrantrum
haxorus
hydreigon

 

[CarpeDiem]

Definitely dragon types
My team would be..

Garchomp
Salamence
Dragonite
Flygon
Altaria
And another Dragonite with different elemental moves.

 

[Thebacondrinker]

I would go with:
Gardevoir
Empoleon
Lucario
Gliscor
Roserade
Raichu
As you can see i like the gen 4 pokemon the most
However if i had to choose 1 type it would have to be water, with the following:
Empoleon
Swampert
Lanturn
Greninja
Starmie
Kindra

 

[akaFila]

As a Leader/Elite member, I'd probably go with Ground types. Along with that, I'd arrange all matches to be Double Battles.

1st Match:
-Hippopotas
-Gliscor
-Donphan
-Vibrava


Rematch:
-Hippowdon
-Gliscor
-Donphan
-Flygon
-Mamoswine
-Diggersby​

Interesting thread! If I was a Gym Leader, I''ll probably use Water types.

Water Team:
~Gyarados
~Milotic
~Seismitoad
~Sharpedo

If I was a member of the Elite Four, I'll specialize in Ghost types.

Ghost Team:
~Gengar
~Sableye
~Froslass
~Gourgeist
~Cofagrigus
~Aegislash

 

[Sohryu]

Now... I don't think if I would specialise in Grass types anymore. Guess, Steel or Dragon would be cool.

Guess it'd be something like;
Skarmory
Klefki
Klinkklang
Ferrothorn
Metagross
Aggron-Mega

Yay!

 

[dirkac]

Eh, I'll just remake, again.

If Bug, I'd probsbly be fifth or so Leader, probably.

Leavanny Lv. 40
Drapion Lv. 39
Gliscor Lv. 39
Yanmega Lv. 40
Masquerain Lv. 43

As Rematch, well...

Leavanny Lv. 73
Gliscor Lv. 72
Drapion Lv. 72
Yanmega Lv. 72
Venomoth Lv. 73

[fairytrainer]

Fairy type!! I would use Sylveon, Klefki and Florges.

 

[KyogreThunder]

I'd love to be a Dark-type Gym Leader because so far,there isn't a single Dark-type Gym.It is not fair at all...
So my team would consist of:
-Weavile
-Absol
-Krookodile
-Shiftry
-Spiritomb
-Sharpedo
Yes,that's right: a full battle.I'd love to see a full battle in the last Gym in future games.

 

[benjasuper]

For me it's either fighting bug or normal types

Fighting: Blaziken, Gallade, Machamp, Lucario, Breloom, Poliwrath
Bug: Beedrill, Heracross, Parasect, Scizor, Ninjask, Ariados
Normal: Tauros, Raticate, Exploud, Zangoose,Pyroar, Dodrio

 

[SuperSceptile]

I would use Water, Grass, or Steel type because some of my favourite Pokémon are those types!

Steel: Aggron, Steelix, Magnezone, Empoleon, Metagross, Mega Mawile
Grass: Chesnaught, Cradily, Trevenant, Ferrothorn, Sceptile, Mega Venusaur

But it's more likely i'd use Dragon because that is my favourite type.

Dragon: Tyrantrum, Flygon, Dragonite, Goodra, Hydreigon, Mega Charizard X

 

[TheKvothe]

Tough choice between fire or fighting, my two favorites.

Fire: Infernape, Rapidash, Typhlosion, Houndoom,Chandelure,Talonflame
Fighting: Infernape, Sawk, Poliwrath, Heracross, Lucario, Pangoro
