Gym Cap
Honestly I think that instead of limiting Pokemon to only a certain level for gyms, it should instead temporarily make our Pokemon to match the highest possible level to fight said gym. And as a cost to do this maybe charge cash or something of that nature. Really this can be played with, doesn't even have to be the highest level, maybe a middle point that B0sh decides? I just don't think it's realistic to have the levels that the gyms demand. temporarily reducing the levels is a easier to work with. |

RE: Gym Cap
My logic with this is that you should've been battling the gyms as you progressed through the game. Don't take that the wrong way, but if you had any interest in doing the gyms then you would level something up from scratch that can just sweep the gyms (e.g: Giratina or Gyarados). The gyms-- and championship-- don't give any incentive to beating them other than having some shiny badges displayed on your profile, so I don't feel that a feature like this would be needed. Besides, if you have Pokemon above the caps, is it that difficult to get another one under the cap? I remember collecting my badges with a SpiritPinsir, slowly training it up to 500 or whatever to get through all 6 regions. I didn't have to train more than one Pokemon, so the training wasn't bad at all. 7

RE: Gym Cap
Ah. I see what your saying. Honestly I thought there would be some prize which got me somewhat interested. It's whatever now though. |

RE: Gym Cap
Furthermore at higher levels the differences between Pokemon become more magnified. Thats why the Pokemon in places like Battle towers scale above your level instead of being additive. For example a weedle and machamp have very different attack scores but at level 5 they might only have like 5 points of attack difference. At 2k its thousands of points. |
