I was just reading through the Pokedex Entries, and thought it'd be kind of cool if we made sure that some of the things said in them made their way into the world we create ingame.

For instance:
Ampharos: The brilliant rays of light generated by AMPHAROS' tail are harnessed for use as navigational beacons. It is standard maritime procedure to bring it on excursions in case of emergency.

I think it'd be a nice mental tic if we placed an Ampharos overworld on all the ferries and boats that the player travels on.

Other sidequests could deal with the effects of Pokemon explained in the entries, such as a Jolteon causing a power outage in a city, or Rocket Miltank/Flaafy Milk Exploitation/Wool smuggling, stuff like that.

Ideas?
