Worldbuilding Headcanons #16

misc gym minutiae

most gyms open at 8am and close at 8pm

there's usually a lunch break of an hour around 1-2pm

you can either walk in and ask for a battle or schedule one

walking in is easier in gyms that see fewer challengers

scheduling is usually also preferred by those doing their last few badges

most gym leaders require you to defeat at least one gym trainer before battling them which means fighting a trainer with multiple pokemon

many schedule their gym battle for the next day and do their gym trainer battle then

you can issue a rematch as many times as you want. or as many as the gym leader wants

a rematch usually involves defeating another gym trainer, however

most gyms are open 7 days a week, but the leader isn't necessarily always in. they do have days off, as well as vacation time

in general, they aren't really required to always be in their gym. some gyms aren't that busy and their leaders use that time to train or indulge in a hobby

if they're out, then you can schedule a battle for another day or wait

most gyms are open all year round. vacation is decided by the individual gym leader rather than the league

this way, there's always at least a few gyms running for people to go to and get badges

(the elite four and champion, however, do have specific vacation months as if one calls out then it's equivalent to all of them calling out. they can still request time off, which becomes time off for the whole group.)

gyms are involved in a lot of community work

a second community center, really. they offer classes, free battle pitches to use, etc.

as such, they also issue trainer id's and are required to help most anyone who has a pokemon related problem (catching pokemon, a pokemon won't leave your home, etc)

they may refer you to someone else, but that's helping, technically lol

mainly, they're there to challenge budding trainers and help teach people how to care for specific kinds of pokemon

most gym challenges aren't filmed

galar is the exception as it is for many things

it's a teaching experience so it's rather cruel to film if they fail

plus, they aren't usually reliable. you could have 4 battles in one day, then none for the next three. very boring tv.

however, it's still not uncommon to see gym battles posted on the internet. sometimes by the trainer, sometimes by others.

people like knowing what pokemon gym leaders use for specific badges.

(elite four and champion battles however are filmed and put online. the e4 gauntlet is there to test your mettle. not winning isn't considered a failure.)

i suddenly realised that Rei has to own both a Poryphone and the ArcPhone so that he can use sync moves. having two phones is inconvenient so he takes the SIM card out of the ArcPhone and puts it in the Poryphone
