I was thinking about how in pokemon gym leaders will also serve as community leaders or representatives so I had a question for only the most autistic. Which gym leaders are most divorced from their home cities, both in universe thematically and mechanically? I was trying to think by generation and I think I've got a solid handle on a few
Gen 1-Erica lives in a modern city with a giant shopping mall and high rises, lots of gambling, and her gym is the nature type, tucked away from the rest of the city, blissfully unaware of how her city has been overrun by team Rocket. One change I would make is to swap the location of Erica, the delicate grass type leader, and Koga, the devious ninja. I think they would fit better thematically with Erica in fuchsia and Koga in Celadon. I mean Koga's city is famous for its nature preserve, that city calls out for a grass type leader.
