I have a better way for gym battles. It says you can't be in the battle if any of your Pokemon is passed level 20. But it's a 2 on 2 battle. Why not just restrict that one Pokemon and say that it can't be in the battle? So, that way, the Pokemon can still be in my party but just wouldn't be able to battle.
This would work for others as well, who have a Pokemon in there party they completely adore and hate to have to store it away just for a gym battle. I know if I had a Pikachu in my party and it was passed level 20, it would break my heart to have to put it in storage while I'm at the gym.

That's normally how it's treated. I had a Pokemon on me that was Level 22 but it wasn't considered eligible for battle so was ignored from being used. Nowhere does it say you have to store them: "In order to battle the Gym Leader, Falkner, all Pokémon participating in the battle must be level 20 or less." It just means you only use the valid ones in participation. Anything that breaks this rule you just pretend isn't there. Simple.

I guess I misunderstood then. I thought that meant, the Pokemon couldn't be in my party at all.

Glad that's sorted. Just a word of wisdom, you might want to consider about taking the Pokemon that is over-levelled with you. As they won't be able to participate in the battle, it means they're taking up one whole slot that could be spared for another usable Pokemon. It may not seem like much but should things go awry (And this is a gym match, these guys are tough ) you might regret not having one extra Pokemon to fight with. I'm aware of how attached you are to the Pokemon and not wanting to box it but sacrifices have sometimes got to be made. At the end of the day its your choice but just remember to keep it in mind!
