I have to keep my starter since the trainer is bonded with it, y'know like the anime. Even when starting a whole new team after the E4.
I've had Gengar on my team in every single game and always will even if not permanently.
I used to limit my Fly pokemon to only the ones big enough to either ride or carry a human realistically, but I've realized that all pokemon are strong enough to carry a person. The size comparison in the pokedex was the coolest thing ever what the fuck.
The gender hangup multiple people have mentioned, my pokemon must be the gender they appear to be and if it isn't apparent, always male.
Only catch shiny pokemon in premier balls and sometimes legendaries too so I'm usually carrying around 100 pokeballs.
I trust in the heart of the cards when it comes to shinies and at least one always shows up eventually.
Generally imagine the battles like the movie battles or the more well animated ones from the recent season of the anime.
And lots of other roleplay stuff in the thread already. A lot of the stuff in the thread is pretty basic for an RPG and it's kind of sad if this is considered abnormal.
