I made 8 DUAL TYPE Pokémon Gym Leaders

Sometimes, Pokémon gym leaders are a complete push-over, being beaten by simply spamming a super effective move. However, if we gave gym leaders 2 Pokémon type specialties, they'd be a lot more fun to play against. Let's explore the game design of making dual type Pokémon teams!

Corrections:
7:09 That cry is Drilbur's cry, not Drifblim's.
08:11 Facade doubles damage if the user has a status condition, what I should have used here is Hex, which doubles damage if the target has a status condition. Thanks to ‪@scottr3237‬ for pointing this out.
12:51 Not a mistake with the moveset, but I just left out an explanation for Zen Headbutt. TL;DR, Gallade doesn't learn Psycho Cut until lvl 42 (too high for a 5th gym imho) and it's no longer a TM in Gen 9, so that's why I passed it up for another Sharpness move.
13:50 Sandstorm only raises the SpDef of Rock types, so it will not do that for Steelix.
14:48 Ice Spinner removes Terrain, not hazards
16:10 Snow does not double Defense, it only raises it by 50%
17:46 Heavy Slam is actually a pretty bad move for Duraludon as it is deceptively light!
20:26 Ice Spinner removes Terrain, not hazards
