Ok, I decided to change this,,
Does he really look like Minato-sama/Yondaime-sama?

I think he looks like Yondaime Yondaime, 4th Hokage?

I LOVE him. He's my favorite Gym Leader. And Roark's lover :p

Im just glad Pokemon finally got an emoish person. Its a big change, ya know?
 
Rofl EMO???

No, I don't see the wrists slit.

He's just bored is all. You would be moody too if you were getting tired of doing your job.
 
I think he's got a pretty cool design as Gym Leaders go. The outfit, the hair, everything.

The kind of guy who probably has a garage band and likes to rock out.
 
The guy's cool, but I kind of picture him as the lazy slacker type. Something like Ichigo from bleach.
 
I think he's really cool. It'd be nice if there were more official backstory and such for him.
 
He's the apparent result of Sugimori (or whoever designed him) having played too much Final Fantasy and/or Kingdom Hearts; a moody pretty boy created solely for the sake of giving the fangirls something to drool over, and to ensure that we never (or at least not until Generation V) see a female electric-type Gym Leader. *hides behind shield in preparation for inevitable backlash*
 
lol, I didn't even know there was a desire for a female electric gym leader, lol!
 
Volkner's by far my favorite Sinnoh Gym leader. His design, his personality, and his party containing more than just one type of Pokémon (which Pt screwed up, but whatever) rock. Can't wait for him to be featured in the anime.
 
Sunyshore.com made me like him more than the other Sinnoh leaders, but I think only merely for his adorable shippings with Roark and Flint.
 
I prefer Falkner. I mean Volkner seems like a kid that hasn't heard of a gameboy. Falkner is much more like able since he's trying to live up to his father as well as protect flying Pokemon's name sake.
 
I still don't know where this whole Volkner X Roark thing pops out from except that they just make a pretty couple.

We all know Volkner is Flint's bitch.

He tricked out his entire gym, and is bored that no one is skilled enough to be a challenge, I dobut he's that lazy. Incosiderate, maybe, since apparantly his gym takes up so much electricity that it causes black-outs in Sunnyshore despite every road in the city being converted into solar cells on top of the Valley Wind Works.

Because we didn't have to wait through three fighting-type specialists before we got Maylene...and why we still don't have a male grass-type trainer.

Hard word, right there.


Volkner is...dissatisfied with the the world. He's not emo, he's not angry, he's not lazy. I imagine he's frustrated by his own abilities (in bed) where he once found pleasure (on the couch), because no one is giving it all their effort to do hard, earnest work. With the battle of the player (under the sheets), his fires of intent are lit again (thank you Flint, in more ways than one [especially in the shower]) and he realizes trainers aren't slacking off, much akin to our generation of text'rs/bloggers/internet-glued, lazy, ill-bred MMORPGamers/yougettheidea. Because there's someone out there willing to foot the extra mile.

That's inspiring. Seriously, for older people who read those ancient things call books? You get the idea. Or do you?
 
I don't see why he needs his own thread.

To be honest, I don't find him interesting at all. Then again, he wasn't exactly designed to appeal to someone like me (a male).
 
I'm not really into Denji. Seeing a male electric gym leader who happened to be a rocker was kind of a kick in the balls for me since I designed a female electric rocker. It's they knew what I did and did something in spite of me. I'd take Stacey over Denji anyday. Equal out the genderness? Make Natane male and call him Bud in the dub.

His hair is funny though.
 
I've noticed that there's a corelation between certain gym leaders from certain generations:

For fire types:

1st gen: Blaine (Old man)
3rd gen: Flannery (Young Girl)

For ice types:

2nd gen: Pryce (Old man)
4th gen: Candice (Young Girl)

Following this pattern, If the electric type gym leader is:

3rd gen: Wattson (Old man)
5th gen: ??? (Young Girl?)

We could have a female electric gym leader for the 5th gen. Hopefully.

I'm also hoping for a male grass gym leader. Both of them used flowery Pokémon (although Gardenia's Pokémon was less flowery then Ekira's). So I'm hoping that the male gym leader uses some "manly" grass types, like Carnivine, Tropius and Cacturne.
 
I still think Volkners secretly emo :p

Nah, just one of those sexually frusturated guys that is bored with his life at the moment.

And Volkner and Roark belong with eachother! Flint scares me anyway.
 
And yet, I bet if Flint didn't have that hairstyle, everyone would be all over that pairing (unless you didn't like guy-guy to begin with, but that's obvious). *Ignition pennant*

And he only belongs with Roark if Byron, Riley, Gardenia, or his gym assistant (Ian) didn't get to him first. Volkner's got a line to wait on.

And we can't forget Jasmine, who has no real known connection with him, yet is randomly in his town, therefore must be there to wait on a line of her own. Proximity makes priority higher, after all.


Though pesonally, I'm glad they didn't pull a Juan/Wallace like they did in Emerald, by having Volkner a part of the E4, when he claimed he wanted to challenge them (this is code, boys and girls: sweet adrenaline rush? Fight the E4? Who is on the E4? Ha!) in DP, post player-battle. I like him better as sullen; moving to the E4 would have removed a character who's /not/ happy where he is, and replaced him with carboncopy!Volkner instead.
