So my crew is finally doing a PTU game not run by me. My GM has announced that he's going to use Disney characters for his gym leaders. Which lead me to wonder about their builds. Which then lead me to the conclusion: "Hey this would be a fun thought excercise to bring to a forum". For an example (And also to get it out of the way because it's too obvious), let's talk Elsa.

With Elsa the obvious first two slots would fall to Frost Touched and Ice Ace

I'd argue that she'd also make use of the Trickster class, if only because she tends to rely on trapping enemies instead of just ruining them with her brute force firepower.

So, got any ideas? Let me know what other Disney builds you have.

Well, I'm outright playing Jack Skellington in a crossover game over on the Pokémon by Post forums. At the moment he's an Apparition/Roughneck/Hobbyist. Apparition's pretty obvious, since he is undead and all, and Roughneck makes him tough as bone and gives him more ways to scare people, so it works for that reason alone even if Jack doesn't exactly fit the 'thug' flavor. Hobbyist is mostly for his tendency to fixate on new things and his eclectic array of skills - he does scientific sorts of experiments once or twice, and knows Shakespeare, but he doesn't seem like he'd necessarily fit Researcher (that's more Dr. Finklestein's gig - he's clearly a Chemist researcher who's made his way up to get Playing God).

Tough Expert or Ghost Ace probably work best for a fourth class. Though in the actual game, who knows where I'd get the poffins for the first one. Trickster (or treat?) is also a possibility.

A Double Battle Gym against Timon and Pumbaa.
Where they have lots of bug-pokémon.
Not good enough at the game yet too make a full build on them but Timon is clearly a Rogue/Trickster type character and
Pumbaa should be a Mentor with all his speeches .

Jafar, the Hypnosis Gym leader. The face of his gym is his prized Arbok (give it a unique serpent's mark that gives it Hypnotic and Bad Dreams as abilities). Trickster/Duelist for making status moves wreck face and making them accurate + refreshing one scene move per pokemon.

The pair of kid geniuses Phineas and Ferb, run their Gym as a side business next to ... all the other things they get involved with daily. Hobbyist/Musician/Researcher (Gadgeteer/Engineer). Hobbyist, because they dally in just about every fun thing imaginable, Musician because they have both proven to be excellent singer/guitar player/drummers/players of just about every musical instrument imaginable, and the Gadgeteer and Engineer represent most of their creations. Maybe slap on another instance of Researcher for say Chemistry and Jailbreaker for more crafting shenanigans, or maybe something like Cheerleader or Enduring Soul, as they both seem to have neverending spirit.
The Gym self is a highly advanced mechanical fun house, full of random traps, slides, pits and the like, and their main Pokémon is Perry, their surprisingly agile Water/Fighting Psyduck, who makes full use of the many obstacles around the Gym, even if he does seem to dissapear every now and again...

The party runs across an abandoned toy store on their travels, and for one reason or another end up stuck their. Everytime they turn their back, it looks like the toys have ... moved slightly, but surely that can't be the case, right? Everyone knows Toys don't live...

Kuzco! That's his name! The greatest emperor known to men, a Commander/Provocateur ... at least, if some poison, prepared by the Yzma the Researcher (Chemist/Apothecary)/Hex Maniac, hadn't turned him into a talking Numel (if anyone knows a better PokéVersion of a llama, let me know) He is now desperately looking for a cure to his condition.

Cruella DeVil, a well-known Fashionista, using Intimidate and Guile as main skills, has a thing for black-and-white patterns, and all the Pancham and Blitzle in the area seem to have gone missing...

Kuzco as a Numel maybe one of the funniest thing I have ever seen on this site.
