>>56705220Because it's actually a pretty crap idea to make content that is functionally identical but only superficially different as incentives to pick one version over the other when clearly they're all still programmed within the game
I think the only interesting part was having 2 alternate gym leaders in SwSh, the fact they planned for all 16 types shows they could have very much made each version have their own completely different set of gyms
But then when you actually play through the game it becomes so much clear that they designed one gym layout to fit both character motifs in a way that feels odd with either one:
>Stow-on-Side Stadium >Has tea cups that represent ghost-type Sinistea>Has punching globes that present generic fighting-type>Circhester Stadium >Has you digging through snow or through sandAnd that kinda shows how non-comitted they were on the idea because it would just be even more work for them
