Do you think there being a rock type gym is overused in the games? It's in every handheld game (except G/S/C) and if it's used, it's always the 1st gym. Do you think it being the 1st gym is overused, too?

Well it is overused but they should at least make them use other rock pokemon. I mean come on, All three rock gyms have Geodude.

Mwar, yeah they're overused but at least they [mostly] give you Grass-types that can pretty much singlehandedly wipe them for Fire-enthusiasts like me XD except in R/B...that really sucks >.=.> but eh, I've done it so blah XD

Alhtough I like Hyouta a lot, I was dissapointed to find out that another first gym had rock pokemon...... :-(

Best. Rank. Ever!
Yes. And the fact that every rock gym is first makes it even worse.

Yeah, it''s hell boring, and for this gen I thought 'hopefully they'll be original with Gym one this time', and of course they couldn't be arsed, as usual. I don't mind rock, but I'm sick of it being first. If it is in gen 5, I'll get real...[CENSORED]
