I know, I'm supposed to be away trying to find my muse, but I thought of a couple ideas.
Thread of the Month - I've seen this on a couple sites, so I guess I'll suggest it to you. This would be for threads that either:
a) Are important to the plot
b) Are excellent examples of roleplaying skills
c) Include major character development
It would help other members keep track of what's happening with other characters. Of course, this is just an idea.
Swarms - Like the ones in the games. Every week / month you could choose a location and have a certain pokemon not usually found there appear in large numbers. It would add some variety to routes whose list of pokemon is a little limited.
I'm not sure if either of these are very good ideas, but I thought that I better suggest them anyway, just in case.

I adore the swarms idea~! I believe it would enlarge the real 'trainer feeling' even more. =D

The Swarm idea is great! Think of tons of Beedrill attacking the trainers...
MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
But really, very nice. Like in the route, swarms of Pokemon, kekekeke

Spirit has been toying with the idea of a swarm for ages xDD
We're probably introducing it after the plot and all that. <3
Thread-o-the-month;; I don't care much for it, but sure? I'll see what other admins think about it. It's already a pain to come up with member and character of the month, though xDDD

We've already suggested the Swarms idea, notice a few Tauros running around? XD
But Thread of the Month? It sounds interesting. Especially because I like things that highlight someone's actual roleplaying ability. I would wonder if it would be something to go on the side table, or if that would make it too crowded. less is moar.

I think a simple thread and a small reward without too much fuss would be nice. A few special Pokeballs, a couple of Revives. Nothing too fancy. It'd be nice.
I was also wondering, does the little Seasons thing on the side hold any significance? Or is it cosmetic? I was thinking seasonal changes in Pokemon would be nice, if it hasn't already been done.

Season-wise, it's mostly for your trainer. During the winter it'll get colder and during the summer your trainer will probably be sweating a bit more.
The pokemon don't vary too much between seasons, because they are already route-specific. <3

Yeah, I noticed that herd of tauros. That's what got me thinking, actually.
As for the Thread of the Month, adding it to the sidebar might make it a little cluttered. You could sticky it or do something like that, though.

If we did a thread of the month, I could just eliminate the second character and have a thread of the month and a character of the month, or something. -shrugs-
It wouldn't be any more work for me; I 'm already looking for ways to mess with the characters of the month anyway.

Im on the fence with the thread of the month so I came up with a bit of an idea.
I say you modsies/admins could have a thread in your moderator area that you could each have one post. In this post, when you have replied to a roleplay that you find spectacular, you put the link in that post. You edit the same post over and over. At the end of the month the admins read over them and pick the best five. Then a poll goes up and normal members decide on what thread is best. As for the prizes, moneyz! Maybe an achievement. That would be rather epic.

It'd be better for the staff to decide for themselves really, seeing as we're the ones doing the modding, and there'd always gonna be members who vote for themselves, which won't count, or their friends, which is a vote wasted.

But there is moderators who could be involved in a thread and they could vote for themself.

But mods wouldn't be hired if they were that full of themselves. XP

Final Verdict.
It just seems unnecessary, and we've been planning Swarms for some time. Sorry. But thanks for trying. <3
