    You must not know the features.

    You can set NPC trainer to give items/money and limit how many times you can battle them.
    With another mod you can set certain areas to require the badge before it to battle. Also there is an "Equal" feature that can make NPC match the players level.

    There is more to NPC trainers then just money, look into it.

    Also there are features in Pixelmon, with pixelmon scaling... that can make your team on par with the team you are about to go against. Also with the pixelmon that attack you in the Grass

    Well they must have changed it in beta 6, because in beta 5 you couldn't do any of that.

    You could in Beta 5.

    When you place the NPC Trainer, you right click it again to edit.
    Then on the Advanced tab you can edit to how you want. You can set it to a Boss of all levels and "Equals".
    Then select their team...ect.

    I have requested a feature in Pixelmon to make the Trainers also have battle requirements. Hoping the devs pick up the idea.

    But also, how engaging is it to battle an npc over and over versus battling a player? How dry does the game feel if you don't actually get to interact with another player while playing?[DOUBLEPOST=1472991239][/DOUBLEPOST]
    I was focused more on chatting npcs for the towns, so I must have missed that.
    Doesn't change the fact that village gyms are poorly implemented atm.

    Imagine this. You make your way through a map. Which are all NPCs.
    At the end.. where champion road is, you are released to the wild.
    In the wild are the best of the best trainers and gyms.
    Think Prison but Pixelmon.[DOUBLEPOST=1472991310][/DOUBLEPOST]
    Start a convo with me, i would like to share something with you.

    Imagine this: you're a player new to Pixelmon and you stop by MyM. It seems fun, but as you spend hours leveling up your Pokemon and progressing through the gyms, something about the whole thing kind of brings you down, puts a damper on your experience. You keep going, and eventually you get bored of seeing the same thing over and over, the same gym leaders, the same repetitive AIs, etc. So, you leave.
    It's proven psychology that a long series of tasks without any outside human interaction makes for a depressing and dry experience (think Portal from Chell's PoV but taking weeks or months), and that's what I've been trying to avoid. Towns and cities full of npcs and textured buildings with gradients, all trying desperately to bring color and vibrance to an otherwise flat and dull game. Having NOTHING but npcs throws all that out the window, because it doesn't matter how pretty the world is if it's empty and heartless.
    That's not reassuring.[DOUBLEPOST=1472991843][/DOUBLEPOST]Now, I'm going to sleep. See you in a few hours.

    Why would there not be other players along the way to battle? if you wanted to.

    Again, we have two very different ideas for pixelmon. We will see how your idea works on PX:E server.[DOUBLEPOST=1472993792,1472992018][/DOUBLEPOST]
    @ABadHaiku_ if you are really interested in the organization of gyms
    Get with @johnfg12

    See what you two can brainstorm for PX:E

    Look I think it's best to have a Npc league to get you from 1-100 then have a player champions league where players are level 100 teams, also you would only be able to rebattle that gym after a day has past to stop you from grinding NPC's. This way new players can go from 1-100 in a tiered format and players still get to be gym leaders so everyone is happy[DOUBLEPOST=1473010082][/DOUBLEPOST]Also haiku from what you've said I've never experienced this, you can set gym leaders to not use the same tactics and be much harder so it takes skill. It's sounds more like your personal opinion than anything of you getting bored.

    I could go for being a dark type gym leader if i qualify ;)
    (yes i know there are no dark type gyms in the games for a reason, but this is minecraft, where the gym leaders can be whatever type they like :cat:) also someone already said ice type

    also how many substitue gym leaders would there be for each gym/type?
