I dont know that 8 gym badge rule is different for each league when OS-XY leagues had same rule : get 8 gym badges and go to a league. Problem.with 151 royale is big clusterf*ck like every trainer can battle anyone. There can be savings(Gladion saved Lillie IIRC),ganging up on someone(IIRC TS ganged on Gladion) some ground Pokemon could literally use Dig and come.out when it is Top 16. Ghost Pokemon.can vanish and wait when other do.jobs for.them. Flying Pokemon can easily hit pray when two Pokemon are fighting and when they are tired and hit them etc. In gyms you battle normally 1 on 1 no side help,coward stuff etc.
Honestly I wish that they had Top 128 for Alola league rather than battle royale.
Well, we don't know how many gyms each region has and how trainers can win those badges, so this is still different between regions.
Also yeah, top128 could work similar to the Unova League, with 1vs1 and maybe top64 too, then round of 16 and quaterfinals 2vs2, and then semifinals/finals 3vs3, or semifinals 3vs3 and finals 6vs6
