I've decided, after some pondering, to post my text-based Let's Play of Moemon Leafgreen both here and on the Giant in the Playground Forums, where it can be found
here. Moemon, for those who do not know, is a hack of Pokemon (in this case, Leafgreen) in which the pokemon appear as cute little anime people (mostly girls) in costume.
Now, to spice things up, I'd be playing with a few variations of "Hard Mode" rules. Enough to make it challenging without it being annoying.
#1: When a pokemon faints, It will be released -- that's it. Even my starter. If the pokemon faints, it's game over, stick a fork in them, they're done.
#2: I will only catch one pokemon per area (in normal Hard Mode rules, this would be the first pokemon, but I want what I want. Unlike normal hard mode, gift pokemon do not count.) This pokemon will be decided by votes both here and on the Giant in the Playground forums.
#3: Oh, and no legendaries. Because I agree that seems fair.

Chapter 1: The Psyche of a Pokemon Trainer
"Uh....Yeah, Professor, we already met. I've lived next door to you for my entire life."
Oak:
Welcome to the world of Pokemon!
"...Oh. I must be dreaming. Who says anything like that, anyway?"
Oak:
My name is Oak! People affectionately refer to me as the Pokemon Professor!
"And? This is my dream! I want a half-naked russian ballroom dancer glistening with oil...I guess I have to go find him."
Oak:
Wait a second! Don't you think this dream will have significance in your life, given you'll be starting your own pokemon journey tomorow? Don't you want to see what your psyche holds?
"...My psyche holds my elderly neighbor giving me a lecture?"
Oak: [B]Let me continue.
