What the ??? How it is not these gym leaders are unbeatable. How can you be stuck for years?
Also my preference goes to reborn. Story wise I feel that they are equal reborn is more focussed around character and morality while I feel rejuvenation is more focussed around mystery and the mystical. Aesthetic wise Rejuvenation has the edge with a far more diverse world which is absolutely stunning. However rejuvenation on the other hand feels to me lacking in the battling aspect. Now I only played intense but I always felt that rejuvenation lacks a sense of creativity in the teams that you fight. The custom moves, weather setup, butload of legendaries, overleveled stuff, easy sweeps by the foes, makes the fights feel more unfair from time to time.
