Re: The general Pokemon League / end of Sinnoh thread
I was never one to consider the Gym Leader's type of Pokemon to be advertising for a particular version. That, my friends, is continuity. They take actual Pokemon from a Leader's team instead of giving him or her completely random ones.
It's more likely they said to themselves "instead of a pool of 4, we've got a pool of 6 Pokemon to choose from for this character. What would be the cooler choices?"
