Silver hack: Pokémon Light Platonism [FIRST ALPHA]

Herr Bruno is underwhelmed by the 'Pokédex.'

So this hack is quite niche, a re-formulation of Pokémon Silver for others involving philosophical and political figures as Pokémon and trainers, and dialogue which is in harmony with these themes. Nonetheless, it might interest some, and this kind of thing (other than the lightly religious hack at times) is quite different to the other hacks, if you want a change. A signal beam from a place where Pokémon is a bunch of people discussing Hegel, Socrates and Marx, and sometimes catching them.
Introduction
You begin by being told of a peculiar transformation in JOHTO, and a warning that some may get touchy about Amadeo Bordiga, before beginning your Pokémon adventure by choosing from one of Grisong, Wimorgue and Haguezal. In this journey, you are interrupted by TEAM UNKNOWN, who believe in the UNKNOWN GOD and are out to ruin your day. However, you keep on through cities and obstacles, until you reach and combat the Elite 4, opening further zones for you to battle the occasional trainer and seek further, rare Pokemon.

Progress:
Dialogue: Completed for about 4/8 cities, and mostly for Indigo Plateau.
OW Sprites: TBD, will be updated, mostly, in above screenshots.
Map alterations: Being reined back a bit, to keep the sense of its still being Johto. About 15% done.
Trainers: 30% done. Gym Leaders mostly done.
Planning: Complete. Post-game shall utilise some of the Kanto areas, with not only Mt. Silver, but also others, but now altered to be within Johto. The Kanto arc shall not be present. Some original Pokemon, such as the UNOWN, shall be present.

I'm interested in this project... how about the pokedex? How many pokemon/fakemon will be included?

Thanks. As stated, in part, most of the Pokémon will be replaced, although in a given version mostly only the Pokémon that come up in the area so far displayed. The exceptions will mostly be set-aside Pokémon such as Smeargle, Celebi or the Unown, who might be given more significant roles. Apologies for the delay, by the way, which was in part due to computer issues. In any case, an alpha should be released in the coming days, so here's a few 'sketches' of Pokémon sprites from the game to keep you lot occupied:

Here's a brief trailer of the game so far:



This first version reaches up to the end of the third Gym. Future versions should reach up to about the end of Johto, and the post-game and such be in the final.

Thanks.
