I never said you have to follow Nathan around. As soon as I acquire the map, I will have posted which Gyms are on what Islands, but here they are anyways;

1st Gym -- Pummelo Island

2nd Gym -- Mandarin Island North

3rd Gym -- Tangelo Island

4th Gym -- Pinkan Island

5th Gym -- Shamouti Island

6th Gym -- Navel Island

7th Gym -- Kinnow Island

8th Gym -- Murcott Island

Orange League -- Mandarin Island South

And I [i]am[/i] trying to make it nonlinear with the separate groups! The thing is, I don't want everyone to do "what they want"- that will, in essence, kill the RP, since no one will have any goals to do in the RP. So, what I'm trying to do is strike a balance- give the RPers a goal, while allowing them chances to do what they wish on the side.

If we visited the Gyms out of order, how would the Gym Leaders be able to tell how strong their opponents are? What if a first-time Trainer visited the eight Gym? It just doesn't make sense to me.

As for your next question; do you mean you want to control a Gym Leader, or submit an idea for a NPC one, sorta like how we did with Juniper?

Lux I have an idea how you could make visiting the gyms possible in a non specific way :)

What if the pokédex or the trainer card is connected to some kind of database for the Orange League and gym leaders can check there how many badges their chellenger has and then select pokémon with levels appropriate for that challenger? You could have it so that you have to put in an admission for a gym challenge a certain amount of hours before you can challenge the leader or something as well :)

meh, IDC, my character will probably not challenge many gyms anyways :P

I just wanna check, from what I've read, it seems that people are already catching their first Pokemon ... I pressume that's what we're doing now whilst we're searching for the assistant, right?

Caus if that's the case, I'd like to catch a Bulbasaur.

Yeah, we are catching Pokemon right now. And that's what Nathan's been freaked out by, a Pokemon he's later going to try to catch. XD

OH. MY. GOD. You are a freaking mind reader. After TFF had started talking about going in whatever order for the gyms you want, I actually thought it was sorta a good idea and started trying to think of ways to overcome the flaw I had listed on my last post. This was one of my solutions. Are you telepathic, or something?

But yeah, I think that could be a good way to do things, since with that we could just go to whatever island we want and still be following the overall plot.

And as for the Gym Leader thing- why do you guys want to be one. You won't be playing as them for 90% of the RP, and only then for a couple of battles.

Also, what should Spartan and I do about the sliming?

Professor Ivy said that the beach was close by, so why don't you go there and wash the slime off?

Although playing Gym Leaders is usually fun, that's because generally in RPs they can move about in them. IN this it seems to me that they'll just do what they're supposed to, wait in a building 24/7 for some snotty kids to challenge them to battles that they have a 5% chance of winning 75% of the time.

I just think that in this RP, I'd keep to the one character.

But for what reason would they move around- ah, nevermind.

And methinks I see a [s]hatred[/s] rivalry between Kori and Nathan forming...

TFF, please tell me you're going to send Kingler back to Unova after this, because I cannot permit you to have one while everyone else has starter-level Pokemon.
