What’s the Best Order to Battle Gyms in Pokemon Scarlet?
Best answer

Honestly, just go where the adventure takes you! The beauty of Pokemon Scarlet is the freedom to explore. If you bump into a gym that feels too tough, train a bit more or explore elsewhere and come back later. The game's pretty forgiving in letting you forge your own path.

My hot take? Start with the Levincia gym to really test your skills early on. If you can handle that, the rest will feel like a breeze. Makes for a more thrilling playthrough!

Started with Zapapico and totally regretted it. Too tough without the right counters and levels. Stick to the suggested order unless you love a challenge.

In Pokemon Scarlet, you can actually tackle the gyms in almost any order thanks to the open-world setup! But, a good pathway that balances challenge and progression is to start with Cortondo (Bug-Type), then head to Artazon (Grass-Type), Zapapico (Electric-Type), Levincia (Water-Type), before moving onto more challenging gyms like Medali (Normal-Type), Montenevera (Ghost-Type), Alfornada (Psychic-Type), and finally, Glaseado (Ice-Type). This flow lets you build a balanced team and gradually level up!
