Look, it's the only competent rock-type gym leader.

if anything a redesign would probably just turn him into a Milo reskin for the sake of a more diverse range of silhouettes in the gym leader lineup

For a first gym leader he is quite alright(probably the strongest out of any first gym leaders)
And Cranidos hits like an absolute truck even without STAB, especially for this early in the game.

Oh, and its harder to be overleved for this fight, unlike when you battle Grant.

You're not doing yourself any favors by bringing up a crappier Kalos gym leader and proving that Roark's Cranidos can nearly one-shot a Turtwig.

All of that is assuming you haven't taken any damage from Geodude and Onix. And Piplup's Bubble is weak as hell and Monferno's Mach Punch can't one-shot any of Roark's pokemon.

Grant gets destroyed by any fighting move.

Yeah he actually gave me some trouble every time I faced him. If there was one Kalos leader I rematched it was him.

>Cranidos tanks it and kills piplup with headbutt
Piplup is unironically the worst starter for beating him. Bubble takes 2-3 hits to kill and is slower than Cranidos which will kill in 2 hits from full health. Turtwig on the other hand can heal with absorb and has better defence. Chimchar will be evolved by then and have Mach Punch+a high attack vs Cranidos' awful defence.
You have to evolve Piplup (overlevel) or use fodder to weaken Cranidos for it to stand a chance or get a crit

I don't understand why they remake things if people aren't getting bored of white characters. Seriously, assuming 20+ years of life and you move on from Bob the builder but not white guys.

I'm not even trying to pioneer justice, it's just like hearing the chicken road joke for the 600th time, give me something fucking new.
