Question for the "higher ups"

[Sasuke Uchiha]

Nah. The point of the thread was to make using Pokemon more like the games and show. I think Leo's idea is probably the closest way to emulate that actual feel without needing to buy an Assist with Shapeshifting (so you don't hafta buy an individual Assist for every Poke you got).

Also, I don't see why you couldn't just not write as your Prime. I had an idea to run a character whose story would be told entirely via the accounts of people watching him. We don't really regulate HOW you tell your story here, as long as you follow the mechanical rules.

I don't think you can just never write as your main character. The rules say:

You can also gain the OM for this writing by using your normal character account. As long as you plan to come back to your actual character, we're fairly lenient with this. 

So, you could do it MOST of the time, but at some point you would have to come back to the actual character (The pokemon) and write as their perspective. This may behoove them, as they may not mind writing as the pokemon every once in a while, but if they would rather not, then this route isn't for them. I personally wouldn't take this route. 

If the trainer died, they would most certainly have to write as their pokemon. Etc, etc, etc.
