The Pokémon Academy Life Community

It's been a while since the last "Ask Me Almost Anything" (AMAA) series. Most of the work done since March has been behind-the-scenes organization work, so there isn't a whole lot of change on the surface level. But since there are a lot of new followers, we think it'll be a good idea to catch everyone up.

We'll be collecting questions starting today and post the article on Friday, July 8, 2016. Development questions are welcome, but we will avoid answering questions related to plot. And as always, any questions regarding release dates will not be answered.

Before you ask, make sure your question hasn't been answered in the past:

We look forward to providing more insight for everyone!

Alright. So here's my question.

There are a lot of facilities around. (Town excluded.) But will they be only for event/dating purpose?
Or we will have something useful to do inside them? Take the lab for example, since there is a lot of inventions, is there anything useful outside of dating?

Skimmed through the previous AMAAs and interview to make sure this wasn't already asked, but apologies in advance in case.

I'm a bit curious as to the tone of the VN. Of course it's Pokemon, but is it possible that the game might go into slightly darker or more serious stories, or do you intend to keep the tone of the game largely upbeat?

Will N have any role in the game, such as being a Student or being someone who travels the world, like Cynthia?

I am curious about the player's involvement in clubs other than Battle Club. Will our performance be based on more than just attendance (i.e. Practicing music or sports outside of "club time)? And will there be special activities/scenes/events related to clubs, or are they just another means of socializing?

Even if these don't get put into the AMAA thanks for hearing me out!

Sorry for posting these questions everywhere just don't know what site you'll be looking at for questions and I understand you probably won't be able to answer all of them but...

Have you ever thought of having Mega-Evolution in the game, say as a reward from Prof. Oak for raising Charmander to a Charizard?
How close is the battle system to being completed?
There's been a lot of talk about how Eevee will evolve based on electives, how do you plan on putting Eevee into the game?

Do you guys plan on changing how the characters look as you progress through the different years?

I've asked it in its own thread, but I guess I'll submit it for this.

Will there be events like formal dances or beach/pool/waterpark scenes, and will the characters have appropriate attire for them?

Normally I'd ask about the game but, Everyone else will ask about that so.

How much fun are you having building/creating this game/Novel?

What's the greatest roadblock you've hit so far/ or think you will hit?

How many in-game days will there be, and if it's less than the amount of calendar days what struggles does this create? For example, a character saying "We'll hang out tomorrow." can't really happen if the next in-game day is say, next week.
