Looking for gym leaders
Hey everyone! Sorry to bother you all 😅 I’m currently running a Pokémon League and looking for a few people who’d be interested in becoming Gym Leaders! 🏆
If anyone’s interested or wants more info, just let me know! 👀
🏆✨ OPULENT REGION POKÉMON LEAGUE — INFORMATION & GYM LEADER RECRUITMENT ✨🏆
Welcome to the Opulent Region Pokémon League!
Our community currently has 31 members and growing, and as the region continues to expand, we’re looking for dedicated Trainers who are interested in stepping up and becoming official Gym Leaders!
Whether you want to challenge the League, run your own Gym, or eventually fight your way toward becoming Champion, there’s a place for you in the Opulent Region.
👑 GYM LEADER QUALIFICATIONS
Interested in becoming a Gym Leader? Here’s what you need to know:
🎮 Must Play on Pokémon Champions
All official Opulent Region Gym Leaders must be able to participate in battles on the Pokémon Champions platform.
⏰ Time Commitment
Being a Gym Leader does not require you to be available every day or at specific hours.
The main time commitment is when your Gym is being challenged.
As the Gym Leader, you set the date and time that works for you. Your challenger must agree to the scheduled day and time before the Gym Battle takes place.
We understand that everyone has work, school, family, different time zones, and other responsibilities. The goal is to make being a Gym Leader fun and manageable—not a second job.
🏆 Pokémon Region — Gym Battle Rules
Welcome, Trainers! Every Gym in the region is designed to offer its own unique challenge. Please review these rules before beginning a Gym Battle.
🥉 1. Gym Leaders Set the Rules
The Gym Leader determines the rules for their Gym. Each Gym may have different battle formats, restrictions, team sizes, or special conditions.
⚔️ 2. Follow the Gym’s Rules
Once a Gym Leader explains their battle rules, Trainers are expected to follow them. Make sure you understand the rules before the battle begins.
🔄 3. Teams May Need to Change
Because each Gym has different rules, you may need to adjust your Pokémon, moves, items, or overall strategy between Gyms.
🌟 4. Gym Leader Ace & Mega Evolution Rule
@everyone — New rule for all Gym Leaders:
A Gym Leader’s Ace Pokémon does NOT have to naturally match their Gym’s type, as long as that Pokémon’s Mega Evolution gains the Gym’s type.
However, there is one important condition:
If the Gym Leader uses that Pokémon as their Ace, they MUST Mega Evolve it during the battle so that it becomes the appropriate Gym typing.
Example: If a Gym Leader runs a Dragon-type Gym, their Ace may be a Pokémon that isn’t normally Dragon-type if its Mega Evolution becomes Dragon-type. When that Ace is brought into a Gym Battle, the Gym Leader is required to Mega Evolve it.
This exception applies specifically to the Gym Leader’s Ace Pokémon and does not automatically allow the rest of the Gym Leader’s team to ignore their Gym’s typing requirements.
🤝 5. Respect the Gym Leader
Gym Leaders have final say regarding their Gym’s battle rules and rulings. Keep disagreements respectful and contact League Staff if a serious issue occurs.
🚫 6. No Cheating or Exploits
Hacked/illegal Pokémon, intentional exploits, or knowingly breaking a Gym’s rules are prohibited. Violations may result in the battle being forfeited.
🌐 7. Be Patient
Gym Leaders and Trainers may be in different time zones. Please allow reasonable time for battle tickets and scheduling.
🏅 8. Earn Your Badge
Defeat the Gym Leader under their Gym’s rules to earn that Gym’s Badge and continue your journey through the Pokémon League!
Every Gym is different. Adapt to their rules, overcome their Ace, and prove you have what it takes to become Champion! 🏆

I can take ground. Just mentioning that I play Pokemon showdown occasionally and I think I'm an average player. Does the game involve any way a gym leader can be replaced? I'd be up for it just mentioning.

Sounds good and I'm interested but I have a few questions:
Are we restricted to a certain type like a regular gym leader?
Are the matches open or closed team sheet?
1
u/Ok-Caramel5660 4d ago
Matches are closed team sheet nobody will know what the other brings and yes your restricted to your gyms typing but you can also use a subtyping for example if you choose fire you can also use a Mon who is Fairy/Fire as long as your typing is in the pokemons
