So, we still need to figure out the unclaimed legends (The Regis and Groudon), so we can decide who gets Rayquaza. Also, how will we break up the fossils?

That's a very good question. Since the meteorite plot point is on the horizon, we'll need to decide this sooner rather than later. If we're going back to Kanto for the Battle Frontier, it would make more sense for Pyramid King Brandon to have the Regis (for now). This leaves Groudon and Rayquaza.

For the fossils, since there's only two to be found in the desert and the group has practically become a trio now, one of us would miss out. I don't mind if it's me.

By coin flips, Liam will get Rayquaza and Lance will get Groudon. (This happens to separate the trio amongst the three of us.) Peeked, since JamesDavy says he doesn't mind missing out on one of the Hoenn fossils, do you want one of them?

I like that outcome as it allows Liam to be the protagonist of the Delta arc.

So, a coworker of mine and I were talking Sun/Moon theories, and we came up with predictions on the gyms. These predictions are made only on the fact that th region is based on Hawaii and is assuming a new type is not added. The types we believe are most likely are: water, grass, bug, fly, fire, and maybe poison. We are not sure on the other two.

Well, they are common gym types. I don't believe we'll get another new type as we already had one recently and whenever types get added, a new Eeveelution is added and a gym will have the newly-added type. Beyond the original three Eeveelutions, new ones have been added in the even-numbered generations.

For what I predict, we'll get at least 130 new Pokémon (including Magearna) and few (if any) new mechanics since we're going into an odd-numbered generation. My logic can be broken down as follows:
  • Generation I (The Colour Generation):
    • The cornerstone of the franchise with 151 Pokémon
  • Generation II (The Metal Generation):
    • 100 new Pokémon including two new Eeveelutions and new pre/post-evolutions of existing Pokémon
    • Genders for most Pokémon (outside of the Nidoran evolution line)
    • The Dark and Steel types
    • Proper STAB moves for the Dragon type
    • Happiness as a mechanic
    • Multi-form Pokémon
    • Time sensitive events
  • Generation III (The Gemstone Generation):
    • 135 new Pokémon with new, but fewer pre/post-evolutions of existing Pokémon
    • Special abilities
    • Double battles (the anime showed a few precursors of this mechanic)
    • Pokémon Contests
    • The first re-releases of old games with current-generation battle mechanics
  • Generation IV:
    • 107 new Pokémon including two new Eeveelutions and new pre/post-evolutions of existing Pokémon (the most yet)
    • The Physical/Special split (changing the paradigm of battles from there on)
  • Generation V:
    • 156 new Pokémon (the most introduced so far)
    • Hidden abilities
    • Trading and battling over Wi-Fi
    • Region maps no longer showing orthogonal routes
    • Triple battles
    • Rotation battles
    • Inverse battles
    • Two sequel games instead of one
  • Generation VI:
    • 72 new Pokémon including one new Eeveelution (the fewest yet)
    • The Fairy type
    • Affection (or bonding) as a new mechanic
    • Mega Evolution, causing a power creep
    • Primal Reversion
    • Sky battles
    • No sequel games (we expected a Pokémon Z after Corocoro revealed the new Zygarde forms)


I've grown to like the new starters with the possible exception of Popplio—I consider it similar to Oshawott. Owlett is so darn cute and Litten looks like it doesn't care in the slightest (that's in a category of cool).

Do you think that Jirachi could potentially be found here? Pal Park puts it in a mountainous area, so I think this one might be best.

just an FYI, that Spoink will be following us for a bit longer before we notice it.

Does anyone particularly want Castform?

In addition to Castform, I want to bring up that: Skarmory, Altaria, Shiny Swellow, and Peliper. Also, how do we want to do Tate and Liza's gym?

What normally happens is Tate and Liza conducts double battles with a Lunatone and Solrock. For this one, they'd probably only allow two Pokémon, both at once.

I meant would they let two trainers face them together? Even at that we could have a CPU there to work with the odd man out.

That would probably be something we should discuss with @pkken.

The general idea will be that Stephen's shiny Metagross will teleport us to where the Latis are, and Lance will receive Mega Evolution from this as well.
