I like this idea, but the confidence thing would have to be present in all battle types to really be effective. There will be other things to do in PU besides battling gym leaders.
There could possibly be a whole week or month gap in between gym battles.... so what are the poke's to do.. maintain the same level of confidence even though he's battling 100 other times in PvP PvE and NPCvP?

I like the idea of pokemon losing confidence in you, but i agree with ghostman that pokemon should lose confidence after losing any battle. Maybe pokemon could lose more confidence after losing to a gym leader than losing to some other trainer.

Actually, the drop should be less from the gym leader. Because losing to a gym leader as opposed to a normal npc is like losing to Mike Tyson as opposed to a mediocre boxer. I would be a bit embarrassed to lose to the latter, while I wouldn't think much of getting owned by Mr. Tyson. At the same time, gym battles are far more significant, so should be a heavy hitter... so now we're gonna have to choose between system-logic and social-logic. What-evs.
St. Jimmy:
Now that i think about it that makes more sense.
Jerry:
Hmm... maybe 'link' the confidence level to each trainer level you go up.
Unfortunately, I still don't know how the system of trainer level will work, but it's just an idea. And, a pokemon battle remains a pokemon battle no matter what, so the lost in any case will be the same, IMO. Acquiring badges is just a way to boost that level, while NPC battling, PVP battling etc just help to maintain their confidence at the level they are.
Woops, those are clashing ideas now... perhaps not so much after some thinking... hmm...
How about it?
