How well would the collectable monster genre work in GURPS?

This is how I interpret Pokemon, except instead of MA, Id use summonable allies. You may have captured 130 pokemon, but you can only summon 6 at any given time. The ability to switch those out, Id make a 1pt perk per successful capture.

Sp YES you only pay full summonable ally for the 6 that you can summon. The rest ar just perks. (In my book anyway. Anyone else got other ideas on cost?)

As a matter of fact namign the advantage 'Pokeball' would be appropriate. :)

Furthermore, for 'MasterBall' which you would need for the greater Pokemon, it would cost more to capture more valuable (higher CP) pokemon.

Im 40 and Im having a Pokemon conversation in an RPG setting. I love this place! I knew all that time I spent playing this game with my son would pay off!
