Fighting Gym Leaders are Pokémon Trainers that specialise in the training and battling with Fighting type Pokémon. They proved their ability and have become leaders of a City Gym. The Elite Four are four trainers who are considered the best in their region and some specialise in Fighting Pokémon.
Throughout the Pokémon game series, players have to defeat Gym Leaders before challenging the Elite Four and finally the existing Champion in order to win the games. Within the games, a number of Gym Leaders and Elite Four member only use Fighting type Pokémon.
