>>53448863Gymnasium is where you train Pokemon, but it doesn't work like in the games, Experience Points (and later on EVs and IVs) can only be earned by using "Supplements" of which they can only take up to 5 every training session, each Supplement also has a level cap where they're no longer effective and get diminishing returns the closer they are to it, they can also be multyplied using Training Items in the Gym or your own that you would have to buy, using the Gym facilities costs money but its not necessary for training, for example, a specific type of Berry Juice will give some Exp. Points + some EV gain (not much) and then it can be multyplied by 2 by using the regular Gym facilities, after the fact there would be a Battle to see how well the training went, if you win its the full bonus, if not then the training was only half as affective
The Pokemon Center would be the place to get quests, special events (like publicity stunts and interviews), and special battles outside the Stadium mandated ones
In the Stadiums, it would include all kinds of events, ranging from regular 1v1s, to horde battles, turnaments, battle facilities, everything, not much has changed except there would be no EXP gain and Money depends on many other things instead of just level
Traveling between cities would also cost time depending on the distance and special events can happen in between
So that's basically it for gameplay, its more or less half backed ideas but that's a game i would like to play, for story can be easily changed to whatever, its just a race to the top so the story is the most flexible part
