Besides competitive strategy and names I think it would be nice to implement elite four members into out plot. Some relevance would be great and most people seem to like a character's relevance similar to Cynthia. We could just put them in events like when all the Temponae stuff goes down, we could have the Bug elite four come in and help. There could also be a sense of mystery to it so the main character couldn't specifically pinpoint what the elite four will be. If all the elite four where characters that appeared throughout the story, we could have filler characters so they wouldn't know who actually is the Elite Four. They all wouldn't say if they were Elite Four or not though, they'd just seem like normal people. Like in gen four 4, anyone could've thought that girl you met in Eterna Forest or that guy you meet at Iron Island could've possibly been Elite Four/Champion material just like Cynthia, they could've been specializing in Normal and Steel typing respectively. Just having the Elite Four show up only for the Elite Four takes the fun out of everything and implementing them in the plot kinda adds some suspicion and speculation for the main trainer.

I agree. "Boss" Characters in the Pokemon games usually have little to no involvement in the plot, especially the Elite Four. Even in BW where all the Gym Leaders showed up to help you fight Team Plasma, the Elite 4 did nothing. In fact, I can probably list the times an Elite 4 member did something: Lorelei in the post-game Sevii Islands, Lance would count but he was the champion in GSCHGSS, Flint telling you that Volkner is bored, Caitlyn sitting and watching you in the Battle Castle, Malva doing the news. Really, its pretty unimportant stuff.

Perhaps we should make the Elite 4's Pokemon scale in level with the player's Pokemon to make it difficult every time.

If we are allowed to do this now, would anyone want to form a group to make the E4 teams?

No. We don't have enough Fakemon to decide Gym Leader teams, especially the elite four.

What if we had Zarel as the champ?
Or even better...What if the champion....was your mother?

No. We've talked about it, and we wanted to distance ourselves from Pokemon Showdown.

No. We've talked about it, and we wanted to distance ourselves from Pokemon Showdown. Very well. I just threw that idea out there as it has been talked about in the past. Having your mother be the champion would be kinda cool. Instead of the player's father never being around, how about we change it to the player's mother? Instead of the mother and child, it's the father and the child. And both of you are oblivious to the fact that your mother became champion.

It kinda messes up the plot we have right now.

I do like the idea of having the Elite 4 be a major part of the plot. It would be even more amazing if they were part of our villainous team for this region in some way shape or form. Perhaps in this game the pokemon world has taken a darker turn? I dont mean a typical "you must save the world" type of deal, but if your character simply grew up in an era where a certain organization had been in power for years I think that would be interesting. This organization doesnt have to be evil, or tyrannical even just some form of corruption within. Idk something to that effect seems good.
