The Classic

Chimaera & Manticore Campaigns

Both versions share the same 13‑Gym League, but differ in encounter tables, version exclusives, and late‑game narrative details.

All Gyms use maps named:

mods/tuxemon/maps/classic_<gym>.tmx

All Gym Leaders require:

• Monster roster: TBD
• Dialogue keys: classic_gym_leader_<name>_pre and classic_gym_leader_<name>_post

Gym League Overview

The League is distributed across **six major cities**, each hosting **two Gyms**, plus a final Heroic Gym located in a dedicated end‑game area. This structure reduces mapping workload while keeping progression clear and consistent across both campaigns.

Collecting all **13 Badges** grants access to the **Champion’s Tournament**, replacing the traditional Elite Four.
