Blight / Blur : Gym Guides

In Gen 5 canon, there's only one gym guide throughout each of the gyms, named Clyde, who gives you a bottle of Fresh Water upon entering/upon interacting with him.

In Blur/Blight, however, Clyde is specifically the gym guide in Burgh's gym. In BW, he was the guide for Burgh's gym as he had a taste for his art- in BW2, however, he becomes the gym guide for Cheren's gym!

There are different gym guides for each gym leader, and they have their own partner Pokemon;

Striaton - Waitress Tia (Patrat)

Nacrene - Scientist Satomi (Herdier)

Castelia - Gentleman Clyde (Deerling) / Harlequin Jack (Swadloon)

Nimbasa - Lady Colette (Flaafy)

Driftveil - Clerk Katie (Drilbur)

Mistralton - Pilot Chase (Unfezant)

Icirrus - Black Belt Thomas (Cubchoo)

Opelucid - Veteran Kim (Fraxure) / Veteran Ron (Fraxure)

Aspertia - Gentleman Clyde (Sawsbuck)

Virbank - Guitarist Billy Jo (Koffing)

Humilau - Ace Trainer Santino (Walrein)

Clyde's trainer class is a Gentleman, he's just dressed differently!

All the other gym guides in Blur/Blight are existing NPCs in the games! Some of them are npcs in only one of the games, while some are npcs in both, but unless specified, they're the gym guides in both BW and BW2! (Harlequin Jack and Pilot Chase are in both BW/BW2 for example, but Clerk Katie is only in BW!)

#BW/BW2 Rewrite - Blur / Blight #((I had fun picking who should be their gym guides. For the Opelucid one there's a funny coincidence that-))#((-there's a veteran named Kim in BW and Ron in BW2. Kim and Ron. Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable moment JHSAJKHSAJKHSA))#((Let's just assume they're married and Veteran Kim went out of the region to continue getting stronger while her husband became the-))#((-new gym guide.))#((Gym guides who also battle. Except for Clyde he's just vibing.))#((Clerk Katie doesn't battle anymore in BW she got SUPER promoted and just greets people by the door now.))#((I'm having fun w these guys actually I want to try fleshing them out <3))#((Clyde is like SUPER enthusiastic about watching battles but can't battle himself-))#((Waitress Tia is an older family friend of the triplets who manages most of the restaurant's finances))#((Satomi is a student of Lenora's who chose to work there even after graduating college))#((I'll make a separate post about them maybe but <3 Yeah))
