(more video-game themed, but that's cool too. If that's what you like, dream it up. also trimmed a word or two for limit)
>How shit is my idea?
>Battle Submarine, the first traveling frontier facility
>It'd be available to trainers most of the time but I'd also travel alone with my crew sometimes, exploring new regions and archipelagos
It would also be a convenient way of providing the Battle Frontier experience to regions that lack one.
>I'd dock in whichever region I'd like, and let trainers come and challenge the crew and myself as long as they were certified by the local E4
>It'd be simple: all pokemon leveled down/up to 50, they get to keep their EVs and IVs but not items, you have to go to a special room before the battle area and get to choose any held item available, be it rare berries, choice items, orbs... Anything aside from the soul dew. You give the item back at the end of the challenge, but you can buy them with BP if you want to keep them
>Ability capsules and rare candies are also available
>You can use any pokemon you want aside from the box legends and the mythicals (basically it's the same banlist as the Battle Maison).
>The battles are in triples
>You'd enter the submarine and get challenged by the crew. They come in three difficulty levels: the apprentices are easy, the experienced workers are medium, and the commanding officers/engineers are hard mode. At easy and medium the crew's pokemon are randomized and chosen from a list that excludes pseudos, legends and other very strong mons, and have subpar EVs and IVs.
Hard mode crewmembers become more difficult as the crew gets to use competitive mons and movesets, and have at least three perfect IVs and are EV trained.
>To complete a mode you have to defeat 20 crewmembers in a row.
>After completing the medium mode you challenge the Submarine Commander, team is
>Weavile
>Volcarona
>Porygon-Z
>After completing the hard mode, rematch team is
>Regirock
>Latios (Soul Dew)
>Articuno
