I feel like this is a good place for us to throw ideas at the wall & see what sticks.
My main idea that I'd really like to try is characters actually playing the Pokemon video games, because I happen to enjoy liveblogging video games in-character but I haven't done it in a while. I've also never had the chance to do it with more than one character, as it was something I'd do on Tumblr...
If anyone else has ideas they want to run by others, do bring them up. Pokemon related ones are the obvious intention here, but if someone has a non-Pokemon idea you're free to share it?

- Basically how I'd like it to work is character commentary along with a playthrough of an agreed upon game, with or without screencaps. [If you're too lazy to take some, want to play on a physical copy that can't screencap, or just want to use prose to describe it all, doesn't matter to me. Whatever style works for you.]
An example of how I did this on Tumblr where one character did this & others commented on his progress, which is another formula I'd be happy to try if nobody else wanted to play along with me.
However if two or three characters took part in a little thread where they played through the games together & made different pokemon choices, or played with a rom hack of some sort, or a self-imposed challenge of some sort, or whatever, I've never done it & it's what I think would be most fun for everyone involved.
