I am unsure if Liz is ready, she was hoping for some info is all, but the little girl is rude, so she will battle her, besides it's the best way to get a feel for the gym

Well, you know how, in the games, gyms are weaker in the beginning? Well, I think that's flawed. Why would Gym Leaders be SO much weaker in some places rather than others. 

In this RP, you don't have to battle the actual gym leader to earn a badge. Consider Karate. There are different levels of belts. If you have 0 badges, you can battle a "white belt" to earn the gym badge. If you already have 1 badge, you can battle a "Yellow belt" to earn the gym badge. There isn't actually a belt system in place here, but you get the idea. 

In other words... If you can beat this little girl, you will earn this gym's badge. You can continue to battle at this gym after reeving the badge, if you wanna. But you obviously won't receive the same badge twice.
