What's the narrative role of gym leaders in the Pokémon world?

(Yes, this is a reupload)
(A much more experienced youtuber recommended me doing that)
(I hope you don't mind, my previous upload was very... behated by youtubez)

Pokémon might be simple in terms of story, but it evokes excitement and adventure like nothing else. Let's have a look at how it works in terms of writing, characterization and worldbuilidng, focusing on gym leaders this time.

As you've seen, I had to find footage for many (omg, many) different games this time.
And if you follow the channel, you'll know that I mostly don't record footage myself - I was once more aided by kind and talented let's players who were generous enough to let me use their footage to illustrate my work. Thank you so so much, folks!

Most of those streamers are small channels, and it would mean the world if you gave them a look! I find that Pokémon is a great side-stream to leave on as I work. The music is great, and the world is colourful.

Here's the let's players in no particular order - hope you have as much fun watching their videos as I did:
