It's cool, but people from other worlds here are cool too •‿• And sure I can tell you about gym leaders and the league. I'm a trainer so that's easy.
Trainers are people who train pokémon. We capture pokémon in pokéballs (they look like small balls but they can hold huge pokémon in them) and form close bonds of friendship and respect with them.
With gym battles you show the strength of your team by challenging the gym leader. There's other trainers at gyms too who learn under the gym leader called gym trainers, but it's the gym leader who really matters. Gym trainers will challenge you to test you and see if you deserve to go up against the gym leader. And because they like battling too.
When you get 8 badges you can go to the pokémon league and challenge the Elite Four and the Champion! They're the best of the best trainers. You go up against one after the other and then you take on the current Champion to become the next Champion.
There's more to being a trainer than just brute strength too. You can't just hit hard. You need to know how to react and to take on anything. All pokémon have weaknesses against other types of pokémon, but if you're a good trainer you can figure out a way to surpass those weaknesses. You don't get scared in the face of a disadvantage.
Oh yeah and a lot of gyms focus on a type of pokémon. Like water, rock, fire and so on.
