Hopefully within the next 48 hours.

Just going to denote some things, before I finish the chapter:

1) The starting town is Viola Town. (Completely unrelated to the Kalos gym leader.)
2) Pokemon from every region will be present in Ferrine. This is to make up for the fact that it has no native Pokemon.
3) I'll probably have no Random Characters in this first chapter.

EDIT: The poll is tied between "8 gyms" and "one for each type". Therefore, I'm reopening the Gym Leader submissions and going to set the answer as "as many as I can get, up to 1 for each type".

EDIT NUMBER TWO: The story should be up within the next couple hours!

@Red Gallade Theoretically, you don't need Mega Evolution to go far in the league.
Oh, and as a reminder to all of you. If your character is from Alola or has travelled Alola and taken part in the Island Challenge, Z-Crystals are allowed.

Also, if anyone wants to change their team to incorporate a Mega Evolution, any Pokemon may be changed or removed UNLESS it ruins the continuity. (So, no changing Pokemon after said Pokemon has already been mentioned/included in a chapter.)

Okay, little bit of an update.
I am far from dead. Life just kinda kicked me in the butt recently, giving me a buttload of work and obligations. I'm still working on Chapter 2, though!
I hope none of you have given up on me :'|

UPDATE:

*Sigh*. I feel like I should update y'all on this.
My sincerest apologies for the hiatus. I didn't expect to be so incredibly busy for so long. I've got a lot of good news though!
1) I'm basically not busy at all for the entire summer after this weekend.
2) I have the entire scope of the story planned out. Chapter 2 just needs to be fleshed out, before I post it.
3) I'm LOADED with plot ideas and plot devices! I've also been studying literary devices and techniques so my writing might have a lot more style.
4) THANK YOU for the support on the first chapter. It's motivated me to keep writing.

I haven't given up on this project, far from it. I expect to finish Chapter 2 in the next few days.
I was also wondering something. I don't know the rules on this, but I may or may not crosspost this on another fanfiction site. I've been holding off, because the characters belong to you guys and I don't want to post them elsewhere without your permission. Please let me know your opinions.

Again, my apologies.

UPDATE! I'm nearly done with Chapter 2 and expect to have it out within the next couple days.

Also, plot points! Because I want to prove that I'm actually putting thought into this!

- The RP "Pokehuman Encounters" will be referenced as a sideplot. We've discussed this already but I thought I'd put it here anyway.
- One traveling companion and possibly a rival will be introduced in chapter 3. The other two will be introduced soon, don't worry!
- Minor Cyber action will start in the next couple of chapters. Nothing too massive, and they'll probably stay inconspicuous for a while.
- There will be some Cyber foreshadowing in Chapter 2. Everyone in this thread will likely understand it.
- First gym battle will probably be in Chapter 5 (guesstimating), possibly later. I want to give some time for development first.
- Allie's final team is decided. I won't reveal it though.
