This is what happens when Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen is let loose in Sinnoh - Gyms up and down the land have been given makeovers everywhere. So what be these new places like? What be the new teams of their leaders? Let us find out.

Oreburgh City - Roark

Image	Leader Team
	Onix Level 12	Geodude Level 12	Cranidos Level 14
	Poor Roark. No new team. His gym looks nice though. Reward is TM76 (Stealth Rock).

Eterna City - Gardenia

Image	Leader Team
	Turtwig Level 20	Cherrim Level 20	Roserade Level 22
	A new puzzle. How exciting. Simply battle each trainer in the gym so the bridge in the middle points upwards to Gardenia. Her Turtwig has grown a level since DP, while her Cherubi has clearly had the nerve to evolve since then. Reward is TM86 (Grass Knot).

Hearthome City - Fantina

Image	Leader Team
	Duskull Level 24	Haunter Level 24	Mismagius Level 26
	Spotted a big change yet? Fantina will now battle you as soon as you reach Hearthome City, making this the 3rd Gym (rather than the 5th Gym as in DP). Her gym has probably had the biggest changes - a pitch black maze where you have a little light. A bit like the Dewford City Gym from RSE. Obviously her team has become a lot more watered down - Duskull instead of Drifblim, Haunter instead of Gengar and a Mismagius a whole 10 levels weaker than in DP. Happy days indeed. Reward is TM65 (Shadow Claw).

Veilstone City - Maylene

Image	Leader Team
	Meditite Level 28	Machoke Level 29	Lucario Level 32
	No more pieces of wood here. Now you can take out your anger on not catching their shiny Magikarp by hitting punch bags out of your way. Her Meditite has grown a level since DP, the other 2 have both grown 2 levels. Reward is TM60 (Drain Punch).

Pastoria City - Crasher Wake

Image	Leader Team
	Gyarados Level 33	Quagsire Level 34	Floatzel Level 37
	Lawrence clearly couldn't make it all the way down to Pastoria, as Crasher Wake's training is the only change here. But what training. Gyrados has grown 6 levels since DP, the other 2 both 7 levels. Reward is TM55 (Brine).

Canalave City - Byron

Image	Leader Team
	Magneton Level 37	Steelix Level 38	Bastiodon Level 41
	Only changes to the team here as well. Although from experience I remember hating this gym in DP, so that doesn't bode well. Magneton replaces Bronzor, with Steelix and Bastiodon both growing 2 levels. Reward is TM91 (Flash Cannon).

Snowpoint City - Candice

Image	Leader Team
	Sneasel Level 40	Piloswine Level 40	Abomasnow Level 42	Froslass Level 44
	Only changes to the team here as well. The puzzle is still irritating but fun, sliding around into snowballs. Snover and Medicham have been replaced in Candice's team with Piloswine and Froslass, and her team boosted by a couple of levels. Reward is TM72 (Avalanche).

Sunyshore City - Volkner

Image	Leader Team
	Jolteon Level 46	Raichu Level 46	Luxray Level 48	Electivire Level 50
	Only changes to the team here as well. Volkner's Raichu stays the same, although his years of indepth research have led him to conclude that Octillery and Ambipom are not electric type Pokémon, hence he's dropped them both from his team. Jolteon and Electivire (gulp) replace them. Reward is TM57 (Charge Beam).
