I've read the manuals, and I gotta say, it's pretty cool! Although I do have a couple of questions:

- Have you considered making some kind of quiz in order to randomize the starting Pokémon? Or is it impossible just from the amount?

- How can you advance the skills once you have chosen everything as a Major or Minor skill? The manual says "your Major skill starts at +2..." so I assume it can go up?

Apart from that, I could offer myself up to translate this game to Spanish (I'm from Spain) if you are interested, but it would take me a while.

Thanks in advance!

Glad you enjoyed it!

- I have considered making a quiz like that, but the sheer amount of Pokémon available plus the prospect of updating it every time new options come out seemed like a bit too much for one person. The most I could maybe do is have a type quiz and then randomize which Pokémon you get within that type.

- You know, I actually haven't considered skill advancement. Apart from gaining new skills from levelling, there actually isn't any way to advance skills past +2. Maybe an IQ Talent or something would work for that purpose. ("Any current and future Major Skills give +4 instead, and Minor Skills give +2"?)

If you'd like to translate the game, I'd welcome it! Let me know what materials you need and I'll be glad to send them. (And obviously I'd credit you for your work both on the game's page and in the translated versions of the documents.)

Yeah, I suspected as much about the quiz. And that's what I did with my players in the end, make a type quiz and then randomize the Pokémon hahaha. The IQ Talent sounds good, maybe to take it once they get to level 35+?

I have another question, actually: when getting the "KO five Pokémon" experience point, does it count to KO them as a group or each player individually?

And don't worry about the translation! As long as I have the manuals I don't need anything else (at least I think so), I'll inform you whenever I'm done and send you the translated version via e-mail. I'll keep you updated!

I'd say that the experience point counts for the group, since some Pokémon have utility in a fight beyond KOing opponents, and it'd be unfair to those Pokémon to have them level slower. I'll probably change the wording so it's closer to "have Pokémon in your party KO five Pokémon in fights you were present for" or similar.

Thank you very much!! When I asked if you'd need anything I mostly meant the .docx versions of the files and such.
