So this is mostly a mashup theory, but what would people think of a game which mixed Pokemon with One Piece? It would modify the Devil Fruits of the series to be all 'Poke-Gajinka' style fruits which mostly take notes from the Zoan devil fruits of the series. There'd probably only be humans and Pokemon, and not the other numerous species in One Piece, just for the sake of ease for world building and mechanics, and the 'Gajinka' forms would be utilized via a modification of the 'Usurper' class from Blessed and the Damned.
The Party would be a would-be Pirate crew, fighting Marines and other Pirates, and instead of Gym Leaders, they would fight Big Bosses (Arlong/Warlords/etc types of people) in arcs versus the enemy crews and would in general have adventures. It'd probably have to deny most of the classes from Do Porygon dream of Mareep? Simply because of logic, and most Pokeballs would likely have to be Apricorn balls or sufficiently more 'steampunk' in design (maybe with mystical actual net to capture Pokemon with rather than laser beams) and the regional Villainous Team standin would probably actually be replaced by the Marines/World Government (or equivalent).

I like the idea of being a pirate. And also Big Bosses. The question is, would one character be Luffy per se, and the rest of the crew would be a bit weaker, or would we have X players (Perhaps mirroring the power of Zoro, Sanji and Luffy) then NPCs as the rest of the crew?

Personal thought on this would be yes, we would have X players (3/4/5) as crew members, all with certain amount of power (though the captain might have more) and the rest of the crew as NPCs. Indeed that would be part of the adventure, gathering up NPCs as Crew Members and thus unlocking new Services on the ship, kind of like how suddenly having Franky or Chopper allowed them to have new things built or have medicine, and the players themselves would be promoted to try to fulfill a certain 'niche' themselves, be it chef, swordsman, or what not, just like happens in the series, where yes, Luffy is strongest, but Zoro is a better tactician and intimidating presence than him for a long time, and Sanji can cook on top of fighting, unlike either of them.

YAR HAR FIDDLE DE DEE, DO WHAT YOU WANT 'CAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE.
Well, until the navy catches you in seastone nets, but that's a minor problem.

This sounds like it would be a lot of fun! Would you allow Elementalist classes as long as they're as they're a Type your Pokemon form shares? Would players have a "halfway" form like Zoans have in One Piece? And could someone still play a non-Devil Fruit user?

I like high seas stuff... not really familiar with One Piece logic, but, from the sound of it, that shouldn't be a major problem.

I've already decided that Elementalist can be taken one of 2 ways. 1) You can have the type as your Devil Fruit/Gajinka form, and thus gain the ability. 2) You can learn it backstory wise or IC, from a member of a for lack of better word, that 'tribe'. IE; Fishman Karate would teach you water elementalist effectively, you could learn from the 'Psychic Man Judo' tribe/nation to learn psychic elementalist abilities or so forth. Non-Devil Fruit users are allowed. All players will also have Pokemon that are apart of the crew.

I don't really know where this is going to go, but it's probably the most exciting campaign I've seen here. As soon as this opens I'm spamming you with apps.

...You're a little slow to the punch. It's already up.
