Pokemon Arena MOBA

// Pitch For sometime now I've been thinking what if you could choose your champions skills from a wide variety? As in having Q with W and E and idk R fo example. That "game mode" would have a lot of balance issues. But if there was already a game somewhat balanced with those mechanics it'd be a lot easier. Here's where pokemon comes into play, pokemon already have specific moves they can learn, types and weaknesses.

//Design I wouldn't be crazy to imagine a map that resembles somewhat a pokemon arena where you battle with 6 or less champs another player. No 6 champ comp would ever be the best for each champ has a weakness and so a comp that counters it. Every move would need an animation but not every pokemon/champ would need an unique animation for each ability. ( Amumus Q wouldn't look too weird coming from maokai, bard or ivern).

//Gameplay Even thought I said all those champs would have weaknesses in the end, Its all about skill. It truly is a 1v1 therefore if you're good enough you can win against a water type with a fire type if you manage to dodge and out trade the opponent. Switch in and out are allowed but the enemy can know where your selected character will appear in the battlefield giving him the opportunity to punish the arriving champ.

• QWER would be the selected skill set
• D for hold items
• 123456 or B switch in/out
• and maybe F to reduce CC as in encouragement ( could be fun or OP...)

//Downside

• RiotGames will never make this game with their own champions and I highly doubt they'd manage to make a deal with the Pokemon industry to make this game.
• If this game were to be made with Pokemons, it would be safe to say that not all of them could make it into the game.

//Why I still believe this is doable! First of all I doubt I'm the first one who thought about this, but dare I say it this is a great idea. Fans of the Pokemons have been dreaming of this kind of game and many MOBA players just love to 1v1. The theory-craft potential is enormous with the amount of team comps and diferent move sets possible. As far as how many pokemons would be needed, If I were to pitch this idea I'd start with Charizard and Pikachu and show off a battle between them both. Useless pokemons don't need to make it into the final game but how about having evolution of certain pokemons just be skins as in playing Pikachu with a Raichu skin.

Well if you made it this far and still don't think this is a stupid idea please feel free to comment bellow your thoughts. Thank you for your time.
