>>51850555>If Pokémon were real I would try to become a gym leader specialized on water type but I doubt that I would become one, there would be a lot of competition for such a common typemy headcanon is that a region has more than 8 gyms, but the games simply show 8 possible gyms and towns that you could come across.
pic related. I know anime canon =/= vidya canon. But Gary not only has different badges then Ash, but 10 of them.
I think if your the toughest trainer in your town, and you monotype, you can open an unofficial gym. And if you play the part, a Pokemon League scout authenticates your gym, or something like that.
