Gym Leader Rematches
Like a few past Pokemon games, Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver allow you to rebattle gym leaders! The difference here is they are more time-dependant, and you must first find a gym leader and get their PokeKlink number before you can rebattle them. Their teams are far stronger than their original ones, although this guide won't spoil the surprise for you. After organizing a rematch through the phone, a gym leader will appear in Saffron City's old Fighting Dojo, where the battle is held.
A nice feature is that the gym leaders don't leave the gym until you beat them! You can always come back later, or even wait until another gym leader accepts your battle before you even go to the gym. Each day, there are different gym leaders who either leave their gym or are open for rematches, which this guide illustrates.
