[b]How did your character react when the Pokestations were destroyed/disabled? When and where did they discover this news?[/b]

[b]How would they have viewed Pokestations? Do they have them in their native region? If not, what do they have?[/b]

I haven't yet figured out where my character was when the Pokestations were destroyed. He's used to their presence. I feel Unova has a nice capitalistic thing going on. There are Pokestations in Unova but they don't have as big a presence. People like them, but there is something to be said for the human and Pokemon interaction the centers provide. The Pokemon Centers/Marts are increasing the services and comforts they offer to compete with the stations, and by this point they each have their bit of the market. Some Unovans prefer stations, some prefer. While he likes the convenience of Pokestations, he would choose to visit a center if given a choice between the two. 

I don't know if anyone said anything about Johto, but he's been living there for a while and has had to make much less use of Pokestations (because there either are none, or because they're not as widespread I guess). Their destruction upon/shortlyafter his arrival in Hoenn is unfortunate, but he doesn't plan on doing much battling. He's just here for something like a training retreat, and he knows enough to treat any possible training injuries. He'll be [i]fine[/i]. He and his Pokemon can handle themselves. Why would he need a Pokestation?

If you were to be a Gym Leader, where would your Gym be, in what type would you specialize, and what Pokemon would you have?
If you want to go by the canon game's mechanics, feel free. Create a puzzle, choose a position (1-8). Determine levels, etc.

I'll go with the game mechanics for now (because time), but I want to give a thought-out answer for the RP canon.
