>>30433842I wouldn't mind this but it's not really implied to be the case. Unless every region just happens to have an ornate castle right outside of Victory Road?
Gens 1 and 2 make sense since it's just a battle facility clearly put there on purpose, and I always thought the implication of Hoenn's League being called a "city" was that there was a city there but it was re-purposed into a battle facility.
Gen 4-6 just have really jarring juxtapositions between the building itself and the interior. Kalos is by far the worst, with those stupid, pointless, and bizarre contraptions in every Elite 4 room.
