After reading this thread I went to read on bulbapedia about all the gym leaders and elite 4 members of generation III and IV (since I knew a lot of the gen I and II ones), and I'm kind of disappointed.
In Generation I mostly, the Gym Leaders had their charisma and they'd have really interesting relations to other characters and all... And I just don't see that much of it in the other generations. Mostly it might be because Gen I and II were more popular and had more games and stuff to explore this kind of stuff, but still, I can't find most of the characters in Generation III and IV that appealing.
Anyway, my favorites probably are:
Gen I: Red, Blue, Prof.Oak, Brock, Misty, Blaine, Agatha, Giovanni
Gen II: Silver, Ethan, Morty, Chuck, Claire
Gen III: May, Juan, Wattson, Norman
Gen IV: Lucas, Barry, Prof.Rowan, Flint, Volkner
(Brock and Misty as in their games counterparts, not that the game and anime counterparts cannot be the same characters, but STILL)
