I'll never forgot Korrina, unfortunately.

Overall they had almost no relevance plotwise. You entered the gym, were introduced to them, and never saw them again after beating them.

Step one, fight through a tall ass tower filled with crappy trainers.
Step two speak to Jasmine.
Step three surf across approximately 1/3rd of the map to get some medicine.
Step four, either beat Chuck and get Fly, or get ready to circumnavigate the globe again to get back to the lighthouse.
Climb the lighthouse again to fork over medicine.
Step five, crash through the lighthouse to reach the bottom again.
Step six, challenge Jasmine.

She's the only Gym leader in the series who's quest basically requires you to beat another unrelated Gym leader before challenging them.

Well you saw them (apart from Korrina) in the Chateua, but they and the E4/Diantha, were forgettable.

I hope there are more events that features them outside of battle like what Gen IV/V games did.

>>24559814
Apart from Cynthia the champion, gen IV was forgettable.

>>24559863
I think Plat, besides HGSS, was the first game to have interaction between gym leaders (Candice and Maylene). Also based CRASHER WAKE.

Gen IV stands out a lot compared to previous gens. Like:

Roark was the son of Byron.
You meet Gardenia in front of the chateau.
Maylene is the daughter of a gambler you meet in the city.
Barry tries to become Wake's apprentice and they chase after the Galactic grunt.
Fantina does contests and shit.
You meet Candice outside the temple.
You help Volkner get through his existential crisis.

Apart from that they've all got unique personality traits. And you can also meet them in the Villa and Battleground
