... And that makes no sense to me. The Gym Badges are trophies that show that you are worthy of challenging the Pokémon League. You don't SCALE BACK a challenge in order to be nice to weaker trainers, do you? One cannot intentionally carry a team of low-level Pokémon in order to get an easier battle at the Gym, that's not how challenges work. It is for this reason that I'm implemented this Minor and Major League thing, so you have something to challenge while still building your strength.

As for the three Pokémon thing, I'll explain that with that they were three-Pokémon battles, and hence the challenger should only be able to use three Pokémon as well. That's to ensure battles don't last forever, things get so chaotic when its full 6v6, I'll probably not do full 6v6 battles very often, either. Though, I will be considerably tougher with the Gym Battles in this than the games are. But don't worry, there are Minor League gyms in the North as well. You need to travel the entire continent for both Leagues. I totally welcome any who'd want to travel north early for fun. Teh-heh.
