So!
I'm plotting up yet another concept for a fanfic (these things need time to simmer, of course, so Delta Species will be finished first) and - from a heavy influence from the very good book Good Omens - I've thought about it a little bit and decided to present three separate sets of main characters (set one - a couple of Trainers and a Pokémon ranger - has three people, sets two and three - operatives from teams Magma and Aqua - have two). They will meet up with each other occasionally in the beginning and more frequently as the plot nears its end, and naturally the Magma and Aqua ops will feud whenever they do. However, this is taking place in the Kanto/Hoenn Battle Frontier while the two Teams are still searching for the Orbs (having no idea they're on top of Mt. Pyre yet), and the Ranger and Trainers are really just trying to work out what they're doing and how to stop it. This may wander into alternate reality, but in any case, I have two questions: Is having three sets of main characters (seven in total) a good idea? and would writing a third person perspective from one of the characters in each group (three narrators in total) be too confusing?
