>>58791341>Would a Pinsir really stop a car like that?A Pinsir has more than enough strength to, based on Dex entries, in fact, it's a dialogue point that it doesn't measure its strength and dents the car, leading to one of the two thieves suggesting that they fix it later NASCAR style using a hammer to even it out.
>You could have his tires get blown out, then he has to steal the other car to escape.Not in consideration currently, but maybe one tire gets knocked out and he has to put on a spare.
>Also make it a vehicle upgrade or some tech in the car/another story point, maybe caged Pokémon or something.MC is indeed transporting something, which would elongate the exposition if his car is destroyed.
>>58791345>Why call the cops?MC calls the cops because he can’t bother to chase after them like he normally would and needs to ensure they don’t get away, the reason the cops are close by is because a highway patrol had recently passed by and was fooled into thinking they had a flat tire so he just does a U-Turn. The only other solution is
a big dick death squad bought and paid for using big dick rich asshole money but by the time he can call them up they would be hiding by now.>Another character can find his carOut of consideration for this sequence currently, but maybe this can be used a different time.
>>58791350Tone setting and “a taste of what’s is to come” because it’s supposed to raise MC's guard for when he enters the location. It also stops the exposition from getting too boring because if you remove this scene and change the location names/Pokemon shaped objects you wouldn’t be able to tell it’s a Pokemon fanfic for the entire first chapter. The first battle sequence happens in the second chapter and it is long.
>First thing that comes to mindThis is the current plan, but would theoretically make escape easier since the enemy car can't block MC's car. Maybe Pinsir is the roadblock and then gets up to grab the car.
