>>50918478Gym would be redesigned to serve as a sanctuary and playground for the Pokemon Wulfric can't keep in the Pokemon Village (mainly Ice-Types who find the Pokemon Village too hot), as such the Gym would have a sort of snow village layout with the goal being similar the original in which you need to rotate a series of colour-coded segments forming the path forward however in this case the segments form a giant snow-slide in the centre of the gym in a radial layout which the player rides down to reach Wulfric who's found within a cottage on top of an artificial hill.
I think a radial layout would work well in re-emphasizing the 3D elements, something that I think most other Gyms (Lumiose and Laverre being the other exceptions) did quite decently in XY. You could have the player need to make use of roller skates with icy grind-rails as a call back to Shalour City Gym as well as perhaps having snowballs you need to roll to open up passageways further into the gym or as a quick trip back to the beginning with some sliding ice puzzles where you need to push the snowballs across the ice being an evolution of the ice sliding introduced in Frost Cavern (and also to harken back to Snowpoint Gym).
I changed Wulfric's ace to Aurorus mainly because I think its more softer appearance (for lack of a better word) compared to Avalugg fits Wulfric's personality better given he's portrayed as jolly and friendly to people and Pokemon alike. Dropped Cryogonal and gave him Mamoswine and Lapras since I think his team should be more animalistic, although I kept Avalugg just so he didn't suffer from the usual issue with recent gen Gym Leaders of having one new gen Pokemon and then just a bunch of old gen Pokemon.
I also lowered his level since I think it's pretty fuckin' stupid that they made Kalos' level curve so steep, 50 always seemed like a good level point for the 8th Gym Leaders of a region, it covers basically everything outside of Psuedos.
