Galactic wanted to destroy the universe and control it. Flare wanted to literally death laser everyone.
'dark' things in pokemon have been done, however the main games tend to skim around the actual interesting stuff. Which for me as a writer is extremely depressing as pokemon is a very interesting concept that the games usually avoid making interesting like the plague.
Furthermore, this game would quite obviously not be targeted at kids under the age of 10. More likely it would be around 13-15+ as it requires actually being able to find a game and have the interest to play it. But even still "group wants to cause the end of reality and move people into a pokemon-less world" isn't that hard to understand . . .
Though like I said in the other thread (why do we have 2 anyways? lol) it is possible to dumb down this idea to a typical game. Personally I think it would be uber boring and unbecoming of our project not to attempt to be even more ambitious than nintendo by creating a game that actually has depth to it, this isn't an entirely new idea even other ROMs like Pokemon Reborn feature some fairly dark stuff. This would not be a gore fest, but a way to create characters and a world that makes more sense.

Well I was thinking to have special cutscenes and instead of giving them lines, maybe we cauold give them voices. And for the first cutscenes is about how the evil team started. I was thinking so there is tree friends that like to help each other out. But one day, the evil team commander was singing the pokemon theme song on a high mountain. Then the legendary pokemon flew/floated by. Then it attacked him and when he woke up he found his 2 friends and they realized he was insane. He was greedy and wanted all power to the team with the legendary pokemon as so he could call it his own. He is doing this just to bring peace to kyoru and joy while such thing is not with the constant battles he does not want to purely free them but he wants harmony and joy to all but is struggling cause of the protagonist cause the leader is insane and was doing things in too rough of a way killing people and pokemon with him doing that the protagonist has had enough and loves his pokemon and the boss leader is possessing pokemon with dark matter witch causes them to go insane to and the protagonist wants him to stop and to do that, the protagonist must catch the legendary pokemon to help him and stop his craziness and in the end... The protagonist and the antagonist become friends and work together to have pokemon and people live in harmony :-P hope you like it

Would voices not need voice actors?
I think that we should have the villain team as a group of people that basically are trading and using, 'illegal' Pokemon, these are Pokemon that we never get to see until the end, where when you rematch the boss of the organisation he uses an Illegal Pokemon as his ace. (Would be very powerful. BST about 750) illegal Pokemon would probablly not be attainable in the game though

I'd just like to mention that the plot has to include/revolve around Temponae (the cover legend, a bug/psychic spider that holds reality together).

I feel like we should try to personify the leader of the villainous team as much as possible. It's something that the series has yet to touch on other than Archie / Maxie realizing that they were wrong. How about a backstory that makes the player feel sympathetic for the leader in the end?
My idea is to have a female villainous leader with an abusive childhood that's referenced multiple times through flashbacks and speech. She is also the Champion's childhood friend. We'll call the leader "Laura" and the champion "Esteban" for simplicity.
The lore behind these 2 characters should be deep to personify them and make the player feel as close to them as they were to Cynthia in
Laura: Her mother passed away when she was 4, and she was forced to live with her abusive father in Geosenge Town. Her mom have her a Togepi to keep her company before she died. Her mother's last words were "I'm sorry I couldn't get him out of your life for good..."
She and Esteban became very good friends once Laura started living with her father. Esteban did his best to protect Laura when he was around, but he was often too weak since Laura's father was a powerful trainer.
One Flashback I Had in Mind:
Her father is seen holding a Togepi that's kicking and screaming. Laura follows screaming "What are you doing!? Stop!! Put Togepi down! PLEASE!!!!"
Father: "That's exactly what I'm gonna do with this worthless trash! It's not even worth being called a Pokemon cuz it's so stupid!"
Laura: "PLEASE!!! sob... PLEASE DON'T HURT TOGEPI!!! I GOT HIM FROM MOMMY!!! sob..."
Father: "From your stupid mother, eh? I dumped her for a reason. She's stupid and worthless, just like you and your damn Togepi!"
Laura: "sob... DON'T HURT TOGEPI!!! sob..."
Esteban: "Go <Pokemon>! Use <basic move>!"
Father: "Dark Stream!" A sinister Pokemon cry is heard then dark purple beam OHKOs Esteban's Pokemon. The unknown Pokemon stops Esteban from reaching his fallen comrade. "Now finish that wimp off!" The same cry is heard while the same beam hits Esteban.
Laura: "ESTEBAN!! ARE YOU OKAY!?!?"
Father: "Heh. He's in much better shape than your stupid Togepi!"
Laura: "TOGEPI!!! Sob..."
Hopefully we'll be able to incorporate the idea of the childhood trauma into both the champion and the villainous leader because it makes for a more relate able story, especially if we include the flashbacks like the one above. Also, can you guess what Pokemon attacked Esteban?

9destra, maybe as a postgame boss then you can venture through the Underworld and fight Laura's dad. It should be the hardest fight in the game.
BTW the pokemon that attacked Esteban was either Giratina, Darkrai or Yveltal.

I was going to say that Laura stole her dad's Pokemon and ran away from home. I suppose it might be possible if he finds a Darkrai instead. I like the idea though! Also, Giratina and Yveltal don't get Dark Stream.

The Villain Team is now being handled with the plot. If you have an idea, submit the entire plot in Former Hope's thread.
