>>49974603going to dump a few more
i'm doing every type in order, so this will probably not be done today, but I might as well post what I have
for this I was thinking of a sort of indiana-jones style forest temple, overrun with vines and almost entirely submerged in deep-jungle wildlife (exotic flowers, HUGE trees, almost no sunlight)
trainers would mostly be ruin maniacs and bug maniacs, just a lot of crazy dudes lost in the gym looking for the leader's treasure, spouting dialogue about how they've been lost for so long and dropping hints to the leader's party (ie "she had a creature almost entirely made of vines", "when I fought her I nearly got acid on my skin")
and the leader's "treasure" is just the badge- with a shiny emerald in the middle, surrounded by vines and golden leaves
I should probably clarify that i'm changing "one mega" to "one of any gimmick" because honestly I want to diversify my teams more without losing that cool benefit, so here the Decidueye's got its exclusive Z-move (was considering replacing it with a mega-evolving Sceptile, but I don't wanna do my bird bro like that)
