I'm interested. Though I do have a question. Do our characters absolutely [i]have[/i] to be trainers to start out with? Or could they be something else like a gym leader or even a member of Team Rocket? Figured I'd ask before I went wild with character ideas.

Good question. I will allow them to become/branch off into different types of trainers such as Rangers, Breeders, Scientists, etc and of course you are allowed to specialize in one type, though the Gym Leaders and bad guys are off limits.
