I just realized, with Dan's new condition, he might not be able to make it up Mt. Leeman trail, especially getting out of the hospital? So I wasn't sure whether they would get the ride pokemon for Dan (I'm sure there's services and whatnot where you can rent pokemon) or just proceed to the trail.

I propose a fun solution here. 

You all could attempt to take the trail normally, because Shamba Town is too small to offer such services. Then you can run into [b]Wild Boy Zvi[/b]. It wasn't revealed earlier, but one of his Pokemon friends is a Drampa. He could whistle or something to ask his Drampa to come help. Then he can ask the Drampa to find one of his friends, another Drampa. These two Drampa can ride everyone around on their backs, two people per Drampa.   

Then, when you get to your first stop, maybe Indy contemplates catching the other Drampa (the one that isn't Zvi's), but as it turns out, this Drampa also has a trainer: Nogu (The Hermit). This would be a good transition into Indy's battle with him (which we've already completed). Obviously, Nogu won't use the Drampa in battle, as it wasn't used in our Showdown Battle, probably because the Pokemon is too strong to battle a new trainer. 

Just some ideas. ;)
