Lurking your game challenge convo with KS, how do you like this for a connector?
It turns out there's a mastermind behind all of the varying criminal organizations, who's true plan is to find the most powerful trainer from each region (your character) and enslave them with... Maybe the red chain from D/P or something? To take over the world. Each character would only see him/her a few times, until after all the games are beat. Thoughts?
