After getting my hands on White 2, I made it all the way to Virbank City and PokeStar Studios. Needless to say, I had a ball with shooting movies.
Then I got to thinking of some possible ways to incorporate PokeStar Studios into my work:
--expanded versions of the in-game flicks
--new scripts in new genres in the spirit of the existing ones
--the existing characters taking a stab at being a movie star
Do you plan to use PokeStar Studios in your work?
The Time Travel one with the Celebi of the Future would make for a great fic.
That, and why stop with superhero, fantasy, sci-fi, and horror flicks?
Hmm, a technothriller/war flick with pokémon? Sounds interesting!Quote:

Not to mention Western flicks, romance flicks, comedy flicks, drama flicks....Quote:

I don't have any plans to use it directly, IE my characters going through movies. But I may use the idea as some sort of atmospheric detail to put more backstory into my world.
I plan to expand on the existing flicks my adding a LOT more genres and adding more of the existing genres
Actually, what I want to do is expand one of the plots (especially the "Celebi of the Future" one) into a full story.
A Celebi of the Future fic would be something like Terminator, would it not?
Something like that.
The Timegate Traveler sci fi flick would make an intriguing story too
Come with me if you want to win the league.Quote:

Almost any genre that appears in real life would work. Well, except maybe Westerns and historical fiction/alternate history.Quote:

I think it'd be an interesting story hook to chronicle an up-and-coming actor's struggles at getting recognition at Pokestar. Expansions of the films' plots would also be pretty neat.
As for historical fiction, movies set in whatever era Pokemon Conquest takes place in could fill that role.
