Revision as of 12:24, 16 January 2016
A Gym Leader (Japanese: ジムリーダー, Hepburn: Jimu Rīdā) is the highest-ranking member and owner of an official Pokémon Gym. A Gym Leader will usually specialize in one specific type of Pokémon (the only known exception being Blue) and uses them to test the skills of trainers that challenge them. Every Gym Leader holds a unique badge for the trainers that prove their skills to them or defeat them in battle. When a trainer has a total of eight badges, they can compete in their regional League or challenge their region's Elite Four. There are a total of eight Gym Leaders in each region, usually all eight gym leaders in a region will specialize in a different type of Pokémon, the only type not appearing so far (Gen 1-6) being Dark, although certain types are used for multiple gyms but in different regions, the most recurring type for the first gym is Rock due to both Grass and Water being super effective against it.
As shown several times, a Gym Leader is usually well involved with their community. When not at the Gym, a Gym Leader is usually involved in some type of work or service that the surrounding community is known for (this is usually more the case in the Anime series rather than the game series). When at the Gym, a leader will maintain the Gym itself, the Pokémon, the other members, and will battle any challenger.

Anime
Kanto
Pewter City
While Brock begins as the Gym Leader, his father: Flint, is the former Gym Leader, his mother: Lola took over the gym and made it a Water-type Gym, and his younger brother Forrest is the current Gym Leader.
Route to Vermilion City
While Ash travels and meets the Gym Leaders from the games as normal, he also meets a trainer named A.J., who runs his own unofficial Gym which is on the route to Vermilion City, A.J.'s gym does not have a badge or a type.
A.J. also makes a brief appearance in the games as a Youngster on Route 9.
Cerulean City
While Misty is the current Gym Leader, her three sisters: Daisy, Violet, and Lily act as Gym Leaders until Misty takes the post.
Viridian City
While Giovanni starts as the Gym Leader like in the games, he has to go on a business journey - so he leaves Jessie, James, and Meowth as the Gym Leaders. Jessie is the one who actually does the battling.
Since Giovanni does not return from the business trip as he is busy running Team Rocket, the Elite Four member Agatha is put in charge of the Gym.
Orange Islands
The Gym Leaders from the Orange Islands have only appeared in the Pokémon Anime series and not in game series. In addition to this, these Gym Leaders work slightly differently than others, usually having trainers that face them take part in a number of challenges rather than Pokémon Battles. Also, the majority of these Gym Leaders do not specialize in a specific Pokémon type.

Trivia
- The only type of Gym Leader that is not present is Dark-type.
- However there are Elite Four with Dark type Pokémon.
- In Pokémon Black and White 2 World Tournament, all of the Starter type Gym Leaders (Grass, Fire, Water) have a fully evolved starter type.
- The only regions with Gym Leaders for all three of the starter types are Kanto and Unova.
- However, in the Gen. V games, the player is only able to have a gym battle with the Gym Leader for one of those types (starter's weakness in Black and White; Water in Black 2 and White 2).
- No Gym Leader from the Johto region specializes in the same type as any Gym Leader from the Kanto region.
- This is probably due to the fact that in Gold and Silver, Crystal, and HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Johto League is actually part of the Kanto region's Indigo League.
- Also, Johto is the only region with no Gym Leaders for any of the starter types.
- Due to the Hoenn and Unova regions having two Water-type gym leaders each (Wallace and Juan; Cress and Marlon), there are a total of six Gym Leaders of this type, more than any other type.
- However, the type with Gym Leaders in the most regions is Electric, with Gym Leaders of that type in every region except for Johto.
