>>55685160As a Disgaea fan, I think Soul Nomad would be a better way to handle a Pokemon TRPG. There are over 1,000 Pokemon at this point, but if every unit had the range of options that a Disgaea or Final Fantasy Tactics character had, we'd be lucky to see forty of them in game. Soul Nomad made individual units very simple, but you had to squad them up in ways that complemented one another, or just build whole squads that filled a particular role. Pokemon team building already works like that, so there'd still be some continuity for veterans of the main games. And Soul Nomad still has individual stats and leader skills and effects, so the Pokemon wouldn't all have to feel interchangeable either.
