Pokemon Scalet and Violet won’t have level-scaling gyms

Most Pokemon games have followed a similar concept. The players have to catch and train strong Pokemon to take down eight gyms to challenge the Pokemon League to win the title of Pokemon champion. However, the upcoming two games broke free of this cycle.

The latest Pokemon Present revealed that the new game is set in the Paldea region, where players are prestigious academy students. They have three career paths in the game, one of them is the Pokemon League. So fighting the eight gyms and challenging the league is no longer a necessity.

However, that’s not the end to gym battles. In the past games, there was a set path to challenge each gym. But this time, there is no path and order, it’s up to the player which gym they want to take on first. However, this led to the speculation that the gym leaders would send pokemon based on the trainers.

But that might not be the case, as the developers mentioned it’s up to the players if they want to start with a strong gym leader or challenge the one nearest to their location. So, the player has to be wise while picking a gym to challenge as they won’t drop or increase their level to match the player.

Undoubtedly, these new games have many new features. So, it would be fascinating to see if these new features impress or disappoint the Pokemon fans. What are your thoughts about no level-scaling in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s open gym setting?
