Hi guys, there's this profile on instagram trying to recreate One Piece's story but in a universe where everyone is a trainer/have access to Pokemon.
While not a groundbreaking idea what got my attention is that we follow each character's battles and team progress from start to, well, supposedly finish (They are doing Arlong Park's Arc right now).
Their @ is '@poketeamsmultiverse' on instagram.
But, well, that would be only exposure of their work (which I'm not involved at all, I only sent some messages with suggestions a few times when interacting with question boxes they had set up), and not so much of a good idea for a new topic. So, my proposal is to use this topic to say what would you do differenty if it was up to you. I also think it could be fun to try to understand the reasons behind their choices. Maybe he's already an APForums user, idk.
For instance, the profile gave Koby a Magikarp. Probably aligning his growth spur in the series and the fact that he was introduced as a fisher who got lost in a pirate ship. But due to how perfectly the pokemon fits to both Kaido and Momonosuke (default color and shiny, respectively) I'd try to change that. Since Koby was choosen by Garp as a mentee, I believe Kubfu could be a valid exchange. Kubfu is described as hard-working, comes to the Pokemon player as a gift, and evolves into a powerhouse (which is expected for Koby in the future, if he manages to be an Admiral like he dreams), so I think it suits him quite well.
