It wouldn't be too illogical, and it'd explain why Pierce goes in himself. And I thought the team'd link up with Pierce because Pierce will try and fail to reach Sam by himself.

I suppose that could work. But since Sam is the culmination of Pierce's character development, I wanted to save her for later. I mean, Pierce's sidequest is just after Mission 3, and there's a whole lot of RP left to run after that. What's Pierce gonna do for the rest of the story?
What about Millenium House? Unless Faynoc's underground lab is Millenium House. But if it was AB would've said so, I think. My original plan for Pierce's sidequest was have one of Faynoc's underlings as the boss, and save Faynoc for Millenium House. Though I suppose it could be the other way around if AB wants.
It would certainly help, because Sam could escape from the underground lab and continue to work for the underling even after Faynoc dies, extending hers and Pierce's reunion like I wanted.

I'm fine with the rules, but how exactly would PvP work? I mean, the way I see it it'd go like:
Tyranitar used Stone Edge!
*AB posts damage and junk*
Swampert uses Surf! Super-effective!
At one AB post a day, it'd take twice as long as a battle against NPCs. The only way I can think of would speed it up would be to have:
Tyranitar uses Stone Edge!
Swampert moves to dodge! Uses Surf!
*AB posts, disregards moves if Swampert was KOed or dodge or either pokemon was incapacitated by a status effect*
Unless we would be taking care of damage ourselves, which could work. Except I can see arguments extending through two threads about how that Fire Blast would totally have missed Togekiss or how Swampert obviously survived both of those Solarbeams.
By the way, Aria is going to be hanging onto Pierce's shoulder all throughout the party. I think it was decided earlier that AB would be the one to give her her nickname, so Aria will bring up the subject of naming her and that'll be AB's cue.
I wonder, is Renny going to be one of those leaders that doesn't delegate, just takes the biggest risks himself? I know it doesn't apply to this situation, since he's the one that has to lead the vans to his house, but I'm just wondering.
