The decision of whether to fight Chuck or Jasmine first depends on personal preference, as both Gym Leaders can be battled in any order, but it’s generally recommended to battle Chuck first since he has the lowest levels and you unlock Fly after beating him. By defeating Chuck first, you can obtain the HM02 and teach your Pokémon the Fly technique, making it easier to travel back to Olivine City and battle Jasmine for the Mineral Badge.
