>>44579633Here's an idea. What if you have the typical region quest in reverse? Meaning, the typical 8th gym leader becomes the first and the first becomes the eighth, and their teams are scaled accordingly, as per Origins rules (where Brock was implied to have a "Badge 8" team on stand-by, but picked his "Badge 1" mons after learning the challenger had no badges)? Like, in the case of Johto for example, Clair is the first gym battle and Falkner hilariously becomes the eighth.
