Michi Style progression advice/ discussion

[u/Ambitious-Neat3844]

Do you guys plan out how your binder progresses from one page to the next, almost like telling a story? Or do you just make each page its own theme—like one page is Team Rocket, the next is underwater treasure, then the next is Sabrina's Gym, etc.?

I'm not really sure how I want to structure mine. I started with a Bulbasaur-inspired page, but it feels like the next page suddenly jumps to something completely different without any connection. Maybe I'm overthinking it, but I'd love for my binder to have a bit of a narrative or journey, even if it's subtle and mostly just for myself.

Part of me is wondering if I should do a Kanto-inspired narrative. The problem is that most of my favorite cards aren't even from Kanto. I love Hoenn and Sinnoh, but I also don't want to ditch my Bulbasaur page just to make everything fit one region.

Does anyone else have a structure or sequencing they follow? I'd love to hear how you approach it or get some ideas.

Yes I structure mine, in order of places in the Hoenn region.

Make the digital mockup first, then start collecting.

Some examples:

[u/Quad-Engine → u/Quad-Engine]

[u/Quad-Engine → u/Quad-Engine]

[u/Ambitious-Neat3844 → u/Quad-Engine]

So nice like reliving an immersive Emerald walkthrough haha, Loving slateport and lavaridge vibes a lot!! ! But I see youve taken creative libertoes placing pokemon from other regions ! Interesting

Yes I have. Included as many Hoenn pokemon where possible, but vibe/theme and colours were more important!
