Why couldn't it be Red and Green?
Because this is a community game, and it would be better to completely remake it with our own creations. It's not going to look good if we changed EVERYTHING else, and then kept Red and Green as the MC and Rival.

@SnowWolf: I'd be happy for my character to replace Oak, though it's just to Pincher. He may have someone in mind already. Plus I sort of asked to be a legendary :P

To be honest, if we're inserting ourselves as Epochermon, I don't feel that we should be inserting ourselves as characters. Kinda weird imo. I think it would be a much better idea if we create new characters to fill the roles of hero, rival, professor, etc. That also makes it so we can create more Epochermon and leaves out a lot of debate regarding "I think [VE User] should be [character role] because [reason]" Especially the character as he has NO personality whatsoever. Unless we give him a personality, which I always find in bad taste in Pokemon hacks, but that's just me.

Pokémon Scarlet Emerald included involvement of the actual characters aside from the dolls. How much involvement they actually have is beyond me, as I have admittably only started it.
I don't see a problem using members as actual NPCs in the game, as long as people are fine with it, but we'll have to figure out what our Epochémon selves actually are if we're pulling this off.

Don't play with fire, kids.
We should totally have Pokemon as the trainers, since a lot of the Epochermon will be humanoid :D

Just thought it would be funny.

I dunno, I see some things that need to be considered here, one of which is that some of our characters have been included in this game as an Epochermon. It'd be a freaky paradox if there was an MC/Rival when a Epochermon of that very same character already exists.

In Scarlet Emerald, Touhoumon are the result of Alice's dolls going berserk, the dolls being miniature versions of the different Touhou characters, hence them being referred to as Dolls in the game.
Granted, we can pull something similar off, but we don't have a doll-maker to make up for the doll-part. Other alternatives are to be considered. I just want to get across that if it's desired, it can be pulled off. Personally, I like it, but I already see this is going both ways, so I'll leave it for the masses to discuss and decide.

Retro wanted to replace all members of VE with clones because...mad scientist stuff...the experiment went wrong.

Promise not to bleed on me and I'll kill you quickly.
Okay yeah, now that I truely think about it. A forum-made character, for Main Characters, as opposed to random people's characters definately is the better option. So, yeah we're going to make a few people, (and unfortunatly, Retro can't be Prof. Oak if he's already a pokemon himself) However, the story behind the clones and Retro might be a good idea. Like maybe we might have want to take over the world, but those clones started to rebel, leaving Retro energyless and "dead".

But yeah, there WILL be editing of certain trainer sprites and titles, (Pokemaniac, Pokefan, and some more I can't think of off the top of my head).

Also, we'll need:

A new Male MC
A new Femae MC
A new Rival

I don't mind not being an Epochermon. I haven't actually worked on my Stats or anything yet, plus that'd help with the "Retro's clones escaping" plot.
