Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Gym Leaders

Badge: Bug Badge

Reward: TM021 Pounce

Complete the olive-roll Gym test in Cortondo. Katy Terastallizes Teddiursa into the Bug type.

Fire, Flying and Rock attacks hit the whole team once Teddiursa becomes Bug type. Keep pressure on the ace before repeated Fury Cutter attacks gain strength.

Badge: Grass Badge

Reward: TM020 Trailblaze

Find ten Sunflora for the Artazon Gym test. Brassius changes Sudowoodo from Rock to Grass with Terastallization.

Fire or Bug coverage exploits the Grass team. Sudowoodo still knows Rock Throw after Terastallizing, so a fragile Flying counter needs care; prepare for Petilil’s Sleep Powder.

Badge: Electric Badge

Reward: TM048 Volt Switch

Find Clavell during Iono’s Levincia broadcast and clear its trainer battles. Her Mismagius Terastallizes into Electric and retains Levitate.

Ground coverage handles Bellibolt and Luxio, but Wattrel flies and Mismagius has Levitate. Use a strong neutral attacker for the ace; Charge Beam can increase its Special Attack.

Badge: Water Badge

Reward: TM022 Chilling Water

Return Kofu’s wallet in Porto Marinada and complete the auction test. He Terastallizes Crabominable into Water.

Electric or Grass attacks cover all three opponents after the ace Terastallizes. Veluza’s Pluck can punish Grass Pokémon, while Wugtrio’s Mud-Slap can disrupt accuracy.

Badge: Normal Badge

Reward: TM025 Facade

Order the secret dish at Medali’s Treasure Eatery: grilled rice balls, medium serving, extra crispy, with lemon. Larry’s Staraptor becomes Normal type.

Fighting coverage exploits the Normal team, but Staraptor can retaliate with Aerial Ace. Avoid giving the ace a status condition that strengthens Facade, and carry an answer to Yawn or Glare.

Badge: Ghost Badge

Reward: TM114 Shadow Ball

Clear the Montenevera Gym’s Double Battle test. The crowd can raise combatants’ stats, and Ryme Terastallizes Low Key Toxtricity into Ghost.

Prepare two partners together and focus their attacks to secure knockouts. Mimikyu’s Fairy typing and Disguise complicate Dark coverage. Protect can help manage Phantom Force and Toxtricity’s spread attacks.

Badge: Psychic Badge

Reward: TM120 Psychic

Complete Dendra’s Emotional Spectrum Practice and its trainer battles. Tulip Terastallizes Florges from Fairy into Psychic.

Dark coverage helps against Farigiraf and the Psychic ace. Use Ghost or Steel against Gardevoir, which also has Fairy attacks. Avoid careless stat boosts while Espathra’s Opportunist is active.

Badge: Ice Badge

Reward: TM124 Ice Spinner

Finish the Glaseado Mountain snow-slide test within its time limit. Grusha turns Altaria from Dragon/Flying into Ice with Terastallization.

Steel attacks cover the team well, while Fire or Rock is especially effective against Frosmoth. Cetitan’s Thick Fat reduces Fire damage; Beartic’s Earthquake and the team’s Water moves threaten common counters.
