I would just pursue the adventure of the protagonist. I have dreams about this stuff. I feel sadness when I wake up and can't go hang out with lucario :P
 
I'll throw in a little bit of things.


With the story in the pokemon games, they're a little unbelievable. Don't get me on the whole "the story is unbelievable yet you can believe pokemon" nonsense. Go with this.

A kid going out on a journey, for the first time ever, isn't going to have a crazy adventure like that. It might get pretty intense at times, but it's going to be a lot more slow paced.
Eventually you might have this awesome adventure, but that's going to take years, walking over your entire region.

Anyway..
If I had a job, I'd probably go into the science of things. I'd like to go out and study the pokemon in their habitats, study their hunting and natural behavior out in the wild. I would probably get into training pokemon as well, since I would need a way to protect myself. After a few years of study I would probably get into doing the gym challenges and maybe eventually the league.

I would be that kid who goes on the journey. I would only fight with a Starly, Piplup, and Fennekin, and I would evolve them respectively. My goal would be in contesting though.
That is my dream team and I think if Z happens, I will trade in a Piplup so I can have that team.
 
Alright, new question.

If you could have any job, or if you're a trainer, what sort of trainer would you be?

I'd like to be one of the many Nurse Joy's, I think helping heal and take care of sick/hurt pokemon would be very rewarding. Chansey is also one of my personal favorites!
 
I'll rephrase my question a bit.

View the pokemon world a little more realistically. It would be drastically different from the real world obviously, but take into consideration the things that aren't mentioned in the games.
Not every person gets to go to a lab and receive a pokemon, and it seems like there are an extremely limited number of individuals who own pokedexes. So you would have to be a really rare case to get one, and possibly to get one of the three pokemon that the professor of the lab in that region has.

So it cuts down the choices a bit. I know that really blocks out that whole dream team, dream adventure thing, but I think it's an interesting view on the matter. You would have to make your own choices on how you want to go out on an adventure, and what purposes and how you would go about catching what pokemon.
So for Sora, for example, wants a Piplip and a Fennekin. They would have to either live in either of those regions and have to travel to the other region to get the other one. In a realistic situation, that would probably cost a lot of money and you aren't even positive you'll be able to find either of those pokemon being how they don't have any natural habitats that anyone knows of, other than the professors of course.

Given those limitations, and how you've grown up and where you live in the pokemon world, how do you think you would go about having an adventure of your own? and if you want, what do you think you would do as a job? Not everyone in the pokemon world trains pokemon, you know.
 
In the anime, it's canon that the starters live in the wild though.

That's anime canon, though.
The main games and the anime don't share canon. =/

but yeah, that's what I'm getting at as well. The starters are gonna have to live in the wild somewhere, but nobody knows where really.
 
Realistically then, I'd probably end up as a small town pokemon breeder or someone who makes medicines for pokemon. My pokemon would probably end up being the common pokemon like Rattata and Pidgey, or common bug types since the area around here is mainly fields and forests.

That or a purrloin I was gifted for Christmas.

But if you evolve your Pidgey to a Pidgeot you could have it fly you to other places. I think you could fit on a Pidgeot.. I think they're like almost five feet tall and around 100lbs, give or take.
Depending on where you live you could be close to another town, or even a city that has methods of transportation that you could take advantage of to go off to other places.

Granted, I'd assume the starters are like an endangered species.

True, that's a pretty good point. I've always wanted to ride on a pokemon. xD It seems really exciting to ride on the back of a giant bird.
 
I would live with my sister in a small house with a Pokemon breeder. I would have a partner of Mightheyena. I think I would wait till I was 16 and then go to the big city with my older sister because she wants to dance. There I would start my trainer journey with the gym there.

Now I talking about a modified sapphire here where it's more evolved.
 
I could see myself owning Pokemon more as pets. I could see myself becoming a Pokefan, you know, those trainers who sit around and adore their Pokemon. I wouldn't be strong, but I would just be happy with my Pokemon, I'd probably just travel for the heck of it, and not even worry about gyms or contests.

If I could have any job, I'd totally want to travel around and just write about my journey. It would be awesome just to document the places of seen and the things that I've met. I could write about all the different Pokemon and all the crazy situations I'd get myself stuck into. In fact, this seems like a pretty cool dream without the Pokemon!
 
How would you guys feel if there were a game that looked sort of like this hack but more 3D rendered. Personally, I would love it. I like overhead views better.
