||
+ | In [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Version|Black 2 and White 2]], he's no longer a Gym Leader. If [[Unova Link#Memory Link|Memory Link]] is used, it is shown in a flashback that the trio begin to question their strength after being unable to battle [[Team Plasma]], as general opinion is that it needs the three of them to make a good trainer, and discuss what needs to be done to correct that. Suddenly the [[Shadow Triad]] assaults them on a "whim", and both sides engage in a Battle. However the Shadow Triad easily defeats the Gym Leaders, which makes them leave so as to check on the other Gym Leaders that can be a true threat. The humiliating defeat, makes them admit they can only succeed as a trio. They then decide to resign as Gym Leaders and restart their training from scratch, so that eventually one of them can become a recognized trainer, then when their strengths match each other again, they can be a trio of Gym Leaders once more. They then think on who will be the new Gym Leader. |
