Unless the level system gets revamped you can't do much about it, specially since every single time in a pokémon game you can choose between the order of in which you can fight gyms (like Koga and Sabrina, or DPP), you'll just end up with a shitass level curve that will make part of the game baby mode if you challanged the harder gym before.
