How many Gyms are there of each type?

Question

I'm curious as to which Types are represented more than others with Gyms.

Comments

Are you including trials?

---

Does this include gyms that are the same as previous games? Like in Red and Fire Red?

---

I doubt it as they are the same gym wit in different generations

---

Well, Im not. You're welcome to do so.

---

I'm talking about separate Gyms. For example, Brock's Gym counts as one Gym with the Rock-type, even though it's in multiple games. I'm not including trials. Just Gyms.

Comments

Flareon, it's not necessary to include trials btw

---

Oh ok, I kinda want to anyway though as they are similar enough to Gyms.

---

Okay. Thanks.

---

Lol your answer is nearly the same as mine because my screen was stuck on the incomplete version while I did mine. Yours is better though ;)

---

Finished!

---

Nice!!!

---

Thanks!

Answer 2

I’ll add trials too. :P

Gyms (+Kahunas and Trial Pokemon):
Normal- 5
Fire- 5
Water- 8
Electric- 6
Grass- 6
Ice- 5
Fighting- 6
Poison- 3
Ground- 4
Flying- 3
Psychic- 4
Bug- 3
Rock- 6
Ghost- 5
Dragon- 5
Dark- 2
Steel- 2
Fairy- 3

So, as you can see, the least used type by gym leaders is a tie between Steel/Dark. If you don’t count trials, than the least represented type would be Dark. For most represented, it would be water, with 7 gyms + Lana’s trial representing it.

Hope I helped!

Comments

bruh this is almost the exact same as what i did

it also doesn't add anything useful

---

Mixed with what I did.

And nope, it doesnt

---

But I finished mine before you had finished yours

---

How? Mine was done before yours, I just edited some parts because I realized I had made a mistake while counting them.

---

I think he was talking to me, and my answer to that is that since I already had most of the answer done, and have now completed it, there was no need for you to answer.

---

Ohhhh ok that makes so much more sense :P

---

You had half the types when I looked before answering, so I named the rest in a comment, then upgraded it into an answer. :)

---

but i was going to finish it. mine was almost finished and Y'x was completely finished. there (and im saying this again) was no need for you to answer.

---

What I'm saying is that I thought you had just done the types with the most gyms, and you were only going to add the trials. And I only listed the types that you hadn't done as a comment, then I was asked to upgrade it to an answer, so I did, then I finished it. I couldn't see Y's because I was stuck on the 'your answer:' page.

---

but...once you saw mine, why upgrade it to an answer? also, how does one get "stuck" on the your answer page? just check the normal page in a new tab. it's not difficult.

---

I can’t open new tabs, and I was asked to upgrade it, I didn’t do it out of my own choice.

---

upgrade what? how can you not open new tabs? what browser are you using?

---

ok i understand the upgrading now. but... who asked you to? if you had finished the comment you'd have seen that my answer was finished. also, in no browser that i can think of (not even the 3ds browser) are you UNABLE to have multiple tabs open at once.

---

I don't know because I deleted their request in my wall. I commented when your answer was half finished and my computer is just flat-out bad. I can't have multiple programs open at the same time, nor multiple tabs or downloads.

---

That sucks, but my points still stand.
