we have had pokemon trainers, pokemon breeders, pokemon scientists and pokemon cooredinators. but what if we got a character in the main cast who wanted to be the worsts best pokemon ranger, a gym leader, or a pokemon "hero". we have also had jessie and james trying to climb their way to being giovannis right-hand men. can you think of any other goals youd like to see one of the characters of the main cast have?
what other goals would you like to see one of the main characters try to accomplish?
pokemon trainers:
ash, paul, nando
we always knew a trainer must defeat gym leaders and earn badges to be a good trainer, but in more specifics, they must gain atleast 8 badges from a region, then compete in the respective regions league to proove they have the power to defeat other adept trainers who had the skill to collect the regions 8 badges. season 10 expanded on this by stating that after a trainer win a regions league, they go off to face that regions elite 4 and champion(something most fans suspected from the beginning) if they defeat the champion they become the champion of the region in their place. we can only assume trainers like ash, paul, richie and most others who "want the best trainer" in the world, would not settle for being the champion of one region, but would go off to conquer all the other regions.
team rocket
jessie and james
they want to be giovannis elites and gain more trust than cassidy and butch, even though they are comic relief characters do you think theres any way for this goal to be accomplished?
pokemon scientist
gary
he wants to ba professor like his grandfather. after his grandfather retires he might take over in his place. this goal can be accomplished by seeing one of every species of pokemon in the world in my opinion, and studying them in the process
pokemon breeder
brock
so far theres been nothing concrete to show brocks accomplishments, and nothing to show how far he is in accomplishing his goal in comparison to his rival breeders(if he has any?) they can introduce an arc where brock competes in contest-like tournements. instead of showing off his pokemons beauty and skills, the appeal round would be to show his pokemons happiness and the battle round would show how healthy his pokemon are, the battles wouldnt end until one pokemon faints to see who can survive in battles longer without fatigue
pokemon coordinator
may, dawn, drew, zoey, kenny, nando, harley
coordinators must win 5 contests to enter the regions grand festival. if they win a grand festival they are known as top coordinators(robert, marina etc) winning a grand festival however, does not make a coordinator the best. like the trainers, they may want to travel to all the regions and win the grand festivals of all them. sence most of the token coordinator characters will probably only be in the anime through 1 or 2 regions there is a better way to end a coordinators story and have them accomplish their goal. rather than going region to region winning the festivals, they can introduce a "final tournement" where coordinators who won at a grand festival battle the winners of other regions festivals, who ever wins the tournement goes off to face the "champion coordinator"..lets say dawn wins sinnoh, may wins johto, someone wins hoeen and someone wins kanto and someone wins a 5th generation land(and other, unnamed characters from unnamed lands will be there aswell). they can all have a tornement to decide which is the best, who ever wins the tournement will face the champion(maybe marina will be the overall champion or something) if theyre able to beat the champion they will take their place as the champion
pokemon hero
lance? the main character from the gamecube games?
well this one is a bit of an odd idea i had. its not completely based on anything from the games, instead i based it on something from the anime. a pokemon hero would try to overthrow teams like team rocket, team magma, team aqua and team galactic. this would provide a more interesting "villan arc" in the anime. its based on how lance was trying to stop team rocket, how they would obtain this job, i dont know.
pokemon ranger
pokemon ranger(DS), pokemon movie 9
pokemon rangers use pokemon to protect all pokemon from anything that may harm them. to become a certified ranger, they may be required to capture a certain number of pokemon and show that they can control them perfectly(both in battle and in stopping a disaster such as a fire, a falling tree, a collapsing cave or house, etc). if they accomplish this goal, and get a high score at some sort of ranger tournement they will become licenced rangers and get their styluss
gym leader
max? forest
a trainer who wants to specialize in being a trainer, but rather than becoming a champion would instead like to either become the gym leader of an existing gym(like brocks brother forest) or to open a gym of their own. to accomplish taking over a family gym as forest(an i suspect max) wants to, they may get it when the current gym leader retires if they are good enought trainers and specialize in the same type of pokemon as the previous gym leader(like flannery taking over for her grandfather.) however, if they want to open a gym of their own, i think the only way would be tospecialize in one type of pokemon and capture as many of that type as they can, train them, and then they will compete in a tournement where potential gym leaders gather(what region your gym is located in depend on the region you win the tournement in) in the tournement there will be 17 winners(one for every pokemon type) if there is already a gym for a cerrtain type in that region, the winner of the tournement must than proceed to beat that gym leader, if he/she wins, then they gain every badge in the gym leaders possession and become the gym leader in their place, if they loose the gym leader will be offered a possition in the elite trainers(their rank depends on how far they get in defeating the elite 4 and champion..similar to how wallace became the champion in pokemon emerald even though he was only a gym leader in ruby and saphire..same goes for koga, if theyre loose they will be at the bottom and the elite 4 will become the elite 5) if the current leader decides to accept the offer and leave their gym, the potential leader will take over the position as the leader of that gym
pokemon collector
lawrence(pokemon 2000)
a trainer who simply wants to capture one of every kind of pokemon, they dont care about training them in any particular way
