The skewed gym leader lineup has been bothering me for a while now. I'm glad that there are others that share my view as well.

However, Mt. Mist plays a part in storyline events, and so must be immediately accessible. This also means Flash will have to be enabled by one of the first three gym leaders.

Another concern is the fact that all the gym leaders are based in Caldera. This was decided at the very beginning of Topaz, and while I can see the appeal in it, it's not practical in gameplay. What I want to do is increase the number of total gyms to 12: 6 in Caldera and 6 in Kirant. This should help even out the distributions of the gyms.
