If you use ground type, it means you are hot
except Hapu, she's a child
Also, for some reason they all look like they are constantly talking about children???
Or about their pokemon as children
I dunno

You know with Pokemon leaning more into Parents as Antagonist/Villains, I'd love for them to explore different types of Bad Parents. Because the bad parents that have gotten the focus (Giovanni, Ghetsis, Lusamine, Sada/Turo) pretty much fall under the criminal neglect/manipulative/controlling/abusive category. And while these are fantastic topics to cover...they've kind of been done a lot for the series. And there's definitely a lot more types of bad parents than just those and they have really good narrative potential in a Pokemon game. I'd love for them for example to really expand on the overprotective parent. We've seen this a bit with Wally's Family (due to his respiratory condition) and Bianca with her father but it ends up being resolved rather quickly within the main story. I feel like the Overprotective Parent can work well as the basis of an entire villainous team of well-meaning but very over-bearing helicopter parents who are trying to prevent kids from going on journeys because it's either "Too Dangerous" (Since we know from both Legends and SV that people can die from being attacked by Pokemon) or "To Protect Kids from Failure from having their dream crushed" (there is a common theme among rivals about having their dreams take a shift after constantly losing to the player...and there are many parents who just don't take kindly to the idea of their kids failing and being hurt by said failures). Basically a reverse-Team Plasma. What's great is that this team can follow the trend of recent villainous teams not being straight up evil...but more misguided. You can definitely work the plot of it the founders of the team maybe having been crushed by their own failures and in the misguided parenting are trying to protect their kids from that. If we want to get dark maybe they know someone (their sibling or another child of theirs) was seriously hurt/killed by Pokemon and they really don't want a repeat. The Overprotective Parent also works as just a standalone. This is one of the areas where I'm really hoping BW gets ORAS style remakes because I want them to explore Bianca and her father's storyline in a deeper manner.
I'd also love to see a parent that tries to live through the rival vicariously. They see their child has some potential in battling (or another thing if they bring back sidequests like Contests, Pokestar Studios or Pokeathlons) and because they (for whatever reason) couldn't be what they wanted, they decide to push their kid into becoming that to the point the kids starts to lose interest (or perhaps want a different career path entire). Personally I'd love to see the plot be the kid wants to be whatever it is they're good at, but their parent's ambitions and demands for perfectionism sucks the joy from them and they have to regain their passion independent of their parents. There's a lot of potential for growth in the parent with this one as maybe by the post game the parent stops badgering their kid and they themselves attempt to restart their hobby as a trainer/coordinator/etc. It's important for parents to know that they can still pursue their dreams even with children it just takes balance and not living vicariously through others. One that would be really interesting to see is the parent who thinks dealing with Pokemon (let alone training them) is a pointless and doesn't think their child should want to do the same, despite the kid clearly wanting to go on a journey themselves. We've seen a bit in Legends people not wanting to deal with Pokemon (granted this was a bit more out of fear rather than complete disinterest) and we've seen in the anime kids who weren't interested in Pokemon (Chloe/Koharu early on most notably but also some COTDs in early seasons). I think it's something the games could really use for a character. Like it's refreshing to see characters not necessarily be gungho about Pokemon themselves (let alone battling) and it'd be interesting to see how in a modern timeline that could cause conflict in how the kid deals with not having their parent's support in a "I don't give a f*** about your interest type of way and you shouldn't either". This would be really good for an older rival NPC whose parents feel like their ambition to be a trainer is worthless, partly because they personally don't see any value in Pokemon, but also because they see the notion of going on a journey to be something naive kids do, and as a older teenager/young adult they should be focused on trying to find a proper profession. This is one path that could involve the parent learning to like Pokemon in the end. Honestly though, I'd be okay if the end result is that they still personally don't care about Pokemon or training, but they become more supportive of the character because they realize that their child is their own person and are allowed to have different opinions and aspirations. I just really hope they branch out from the neglect/abuse path because while very important topics there's others ways parents can be not great and those deserve spotlight

New One-shot Alert! in compliance with the League Chronicles Universe:
A Warm Indigo Welcome:
Summary: Lance didn't mind talking to people, but a party thrown in his honor was excessive. But Lance was told by Sergei, the current Indigo League champion, that he didn't have a choice in the matter. That was because Lance was the guest-of-honor, therefore he was required to go. A new member of the Indigo League family, Sergei had told him. Lance personally thought that was a crock of shit.
"Any advice?" Lance asked his superior.
Agatha simply looked at him in a way that would make lesser trainers wet their pants. "Try not to overindulge. Also, if Giovanni tries to speak to you, kill him."
-
"Enjoying the party, boy?"
Agatha did advise Lance to kill him, but something told Lance that murdering a gym leader in the cream of the Indigo League would not be a wise decision. Especially at his own welcoming party. It would leave a few bad tastes in the others' mouths, so to speak.

You know... Sometimes I wonder if Green (/Blue aka your rival in Pokemon RGBY) was always actually supposed to be a member of Team Rocket.
If you think of the locations where he shows up, it actually makes a lot more sense if he (secretly?) was. You see him exiting Nugget Bridge while Team Rocket are standing on it, recruiting people. He's on the S.S. Anne while a member of the international police is on it investigating Team Rocket. You encounter him in the Pokemon Tower while Team Rocket is occupying the top floors of it. You encounter him in the middle of the Silph Co. building while Team Rocket has seized the entirety of it! (And all of Saffron City too for that matter!) Like, the rest can be chalked up to weird timing and coincidence. But the Silph Co. thing is REALLY weird if Green wasn't directly involving himself in Team Rocket's business on purpose! So it actually explains a fair bit if Green was actually a member of Team Rocket this whole time and that's why he ends up constantly showing up where Team Rocket is! Honestly after a while, Green being a member of Team Rocket is the easiest explanation for why he keeps ending up in these places infested with Team Rocket goons.
If Green were a member of Team Rocket, it would actually kinda be appropriate that he ended up becoming the Gym Leader of Viridian City in Giovanni's place. Maybe Green became the Gym Leader with Giovanni's blessing. Hell. Maybe Giovanni wanted Green to be his successor!
Admittedly, all of this is just an idea that I like and would love to see people try out more! Could certainly be interesting to explore!

Fair enough getting away with adopting Silver, his Dad's an evil ass anyway. What I wanna know is how Lance got away with also adopting Blue, Iris and Lillie (and by defeault Gladion too) who all have guardians who probably don't want to give them away

"Hm? Disbanded...""So this is how it's gonna be, huh? I guess I'm doomed to be a criminal no matter which world I find myself in." - Giovanni
For reasons, I remembered that Pokemon Masters had a line in Giovanni's original event that outright confirmed that he isn't native to that world (and, as USUM implied, his Team Rocket might've never disbanded, given his reaction to being told they did). Which leads me to two lines of thought:
1.Even for as much as he owns up to the fact that he's a bad man, I wonder how Giovanni felt upon coming to that realization, especially considering his morally grey-centric talk. Imagine how Pokemon Special Giovanni would react. How How I Became A Pokemon Card Giovanni would react!
2.Imagine being HGSS Giovanni, you go into exile due to losing to a kid, you try training for a couple years, get a confidence boost from your minions wanting you back, have said confidence boost shattered by another kid, and then some guy who is literally "you, but better" shows up, not only taking your organization to new heights, but making you even more of a wanted criminal.
