I like to play hero!
You know in G/S/C and HG/SS, Clair doesn't give you the RisingBadge just because you beat her, right? In this situation, what if some other Gym Leader was too proud to admit defeat?

Throw a Pokeball at their head, then steal it from their unconscious form.
 
How's the Dragon's Den challenge even a real challenge? It's so simple and there's nothing dangerous or mighty in there.
 
One would think that Gym Leaders are appointed and governed by some sort of regional unseen higher authority - perhaps even the Elite Four - and thus they know they can't withhold badges under penalty of eventual sanction.

As said, Clair hardly "refuses to admit defeat." She merely makes you travel a short distance to get the badge. Is really it any worse than having to travel between two towns and heal Jasmine's Ampharos before you battle her?
 
However I lose to someone, I just give up the badge.

And no matter how easy or hard the Dragon's Den is, I just think it's immoral to show poor sportsmanship.
 
I'd take it from her and then...

I'd rip out her eyeballs with a rusty spork and shove sea urchins in her empty eye sockets and then choke her with the threads dangling from her gouged out eyeballs. And then use the rusty spork to some how chop all of her arms and legs off and throw her into a sea of very angry tourists.
 
I'd bring in my bulked up Wigglytuff which would proceed to sing. I would obviously have a pair of fuzzy earmuffs to block the sound. All the trainers in the gym would fall asleep (and all the people in the town) and I would gladly let it draw all over their faces, just to show what happens when you mess with me. Then I would take the badge, put mirrors in front of every single person for when they wake up, and leave laughing.
 
Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure Clair was cited by cops about her conduct once you beat the Dragon's Den.
 
I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. After all, if Ash can get gym badges without beating trainers, why can't trainers refuse to give badges to other trainers.

This is kinda supported via her Heart Gold conversation with the Elder.

He threatens to report her actions to Lance after she still refuses you the badge, Lance who is not only related to her, but is also the Champion, after that she concede's defeat.
 
My reaction:

Okay, I beat your Kingdra with my Bayleef... about freaking time...

So... how about that badge?

Excuse me? what? >:O NO!!!!!!!!!!!


and this is why women belong in the kitchen
 
Huh? I guess I'm one of the few people who actually liked the fact that Clair threw in an extra challenge - it was unexpected, a change from the usual formula.

It's not something I'd want to see again for a while (makes Clair's personality more unique if it isn't done too soon, similar to Giovanni being the only "evil team" member that is also a Gym Leader).

I can agree on one thing... Clair is hot... definitely...


I don't get why people in the game say her outfit looks embarrasing...
I mean I would prefer her not to have it on... but still :)
