More Training Center deets + some other random ideas

Okay, so Riku's Training Center is still ongoing. I've got an IC Post that mentions it and opens up possibilities for brainstorming. I've also got a Massive Info Post that covers the roster, current services, etc. Prices are subject to change.

What I need: Characters willing to volunteer, be it as workers, builders, Pokémon caretakers, or Pokémon volunteers... or anything else you think would be good to have.

Additionally, there has been talk of partnering with the Celadon Breeding Center. Saber's player and I have already discussed this, so if any other breeding center peeps would like to help, coolio! Additionally, Riku may lend some of his team for breeding purposes.

During the Outbreak: I know Rockets are planning on attacking Celadon. Riku may put his 100's to work in an attempt to provide some defense for civilians and such. He's got like... 20+ of them chilling at the center, and he wouldn't mind renting some of them out for protection. Interested? Just let me know.

I'd prefer that these guys not get stolen for now, but if any Rockets wanted to confront them, they're welcome to. Just know that Riku spams TMs and tutor moves, making his guys kinda irritating to deal with.

Random side-note: An egg post will be coming up soon. I know a bunch of you were interested in Riku's stash of overpowered eggs. He just had to backtrack to grab his friends.

Other random plot ideas. These are kinda basic because they're just sorta 'what-ifs', but here are some things that crossed my mind...

First, I think it'd be super cool if we had another Halloween event that was borderline creepypasta. Lavender Town opens up lots of opportunities. After all, the people there moved a ton of graves to a tiny little building just so they could build a radio tower. Something involving restless spirits might be neat, but I know we've had ghost-related events before.

One thing that crossed my minds was like... just. Mass haunting and ghostly activities. Possibly with a return of creepy Lavender Town music (either backwards or Gen 1-- either would be spooky as heck).

Another plot idea that I think might be interesting is one where chars turn into Pokémon... but I realize that might be too similar to outbreak. I just think it might be an interesting source of karma because some characters are really cruel to their Pokémon, so changing into them and being forced to see things from their perspective might be fun and character-building. But, like with the ghost thing, it's just a random thought that crossed my mind.

But here's a big thing I want: More stuff for Kanto. It really feels like most of the fun stuff goes down in Johto, but for Riku, he's already been all over the region. I'm sure there are others who are more comfortable in Kanto, too. It's great to see the Outbreak spreading between both regions. It'd just be cool if there were other attractions to bring characters to the region. Johto has the Bug Catching Contest, Safari Zone, etc. Maybe there can be something to even things out a little?
