Gyms
Traditionally, Pokemon games have made the player go and take on eight different gym leaders, each with respective Pokemon typings. You have your Grass-type gym, your Fire-type gym, and six others that correspond to other types.
GameFreak switched things up a bit with the last generation of Pokemon, Sun and Moon, and removed gyms from the games. These were replaced with challenges of sorts that had different objectives.
In the trailer for Sword and Shield, we got a glimpse of some building that looked like typical Pokemon Gyms, but we’re still not sure if there will be eight of them, and we’re not sure if there will be some sort of Pokemon League either.
In the Pokemon Direct, we would love to see some of the Gym Leaders (if there are any at all) and a detailed description as to how the game will work with progression.
