I mostly agree with Talija, the Club makes for a pretty solid antagonist group. That they've managed to directly anger several of our characters instead of just being there like a lot of the Teams in the games is nice as well, and the Viridian situation was fairly well thought out. I do wish it was a bit more clear at the top of things that it was going to be a Hopeless Boss type scenario, but I'm not sure how much of that is actual fault vs just me being stupid/disadvantaged. 

The only other thing I can think of might be something with the Exp System, but before I vomit a paragraph about that I should ask a clarification question- in the First Post where you talk about Weekly Experience Caps, is that 10 Exp per OOC Week (so today until December 10th), or is that In-Game Weeks? [color=yellow][b](This is in regards to if any of the Pokemon Trainers use their current Pokemon to battle and catch Wild Pokemon, then that Pokemon they used to battle the Wild Pokemon will get 3 exp points. Because catching Wild Pokemon can happen frequently throughout the IRL week, I said that the Tamed Pokemon can only get 3 exp a week and no more. So they can continue to battle and catch wild Pokemon but they won't get exp for it. They got it only that one time until the following week comes around.)[/b][/color]

And, while I'm at it (sorry for the question barrage), I had a brainstorm earlier today at work for Seth. I know you said him making off with a box from the van wouldn't fly, but my thought was to make a Pokemon CS and arrange it so that she was tamed by a Trainer who grew to hate her who trades her ball in to the Club for an Ubermon, then have her ball go out of the box (maybe a box got jostled or dropped and a couple fell out but hers went farther by pure happenstance), get quietly grabbed by Seth, taken to the city limits and released into the Wild (where she'd then be up for grabs by Trainer PCs), and then Seth is in or near the forest and I can move him to hook up with Talija's Zorua and get that ball rolling. Do you think I could swing that, or would you really rather I just left that whole situation alone? [color=yellow][b](This would be fine. I also said beforehand and I think this was before you joined the game that the Enemy NPCs were just meant to reveal a criminal situation and that's all it was. There was going to be another situation the trainers can level their Pokemon on. But that can happen the next day to allow the writers to move on with their plots.)[/b][/color]

(I'm likely to make the Gijinka with the gist of that background anyway, tamed -> hated -> runs or is chased away, I just thought it might be interesting to make use of the Club if possible and kill a 2nd bird with the same stone by giving Seth a reason to be in the forest without giving him mood whiplash or needing to skip ahead some-odd hours while he cools off).
