Probably Johto.

On the playthroughs, Flannery and Jasmine caught me off guard. Also, Clair was a bitch to defeat because there was no grinding area before her Gym.

It also had good typings in general. Grass, Rock, Fire and Electric Gyms are all one-shot victories. Water and Ice are also easy-ish.

I feel like Unova was far harder. The gyms there were brutal and the battles did everything to take away your strengths.

Look at Elesa's gym for instance.

I've played since the beginning, and Misty and Whitney I remember were huge walls for me. Sabrina in Yellow was also comparable.
Lance in G/S/C was also the worst thing ever.
I didn't have trouble with any other Gym Leader except for maybe Volkner and Lenora.

Gen 2.
Faulcobers is mostly easy, though he can be tough if underleveled or choose chika.
Bugsy is tough unless you went cind
Whitney will rek you regardless.
Spooky has a fucking gengar at the fourth gym when your pokes will have half the stats
Chuck will troll the shit out of you
Jasmine steelix can be really damn tough
Pyrce is mostly pushover and just takes a while
Claire will fuck you with a kingdra 5 to 10 levels higher with only 2 weakness.

Runner up is unova.

Easiest by a mile is gen vi

You know this to be true.

>>24932698
Its more of a branch path why pryce and jasmine are around the 30-36 Area
So you either do team rocket stuff
Or you do chuck and medicine delivery

No gym leaders are ever hard for me because I roll with a five mon team at all times.

If you seriously ever lose to Whitney you're a bottom-feeding scrub.

Kanto. Former champion is now a gym leader, a former gym leader is now in E4, former gym leader is a former mob boss, Sabrina has actual psychic powers, Blaine lived in a volcano and now lives in an ice cave, and Lt. Surge is a war hero.

Platinum has the objectively hardest gym leaders, not counting Challenge mode Black 2, so Sinnoh I guess
You shouldn't count Challenge or Easy mode Gen 5 since it's not available directly from the beginning

the OP image really makes it clear how crazy the leader designs have gotten. not such a bad thing but the leaders haven't felt as memorable since 3rd or 4th gen

Idk about region, but if there is a hard gym leader it's usually one of the early ones like Yellow's Brock.
