Hello! Umbramatic here, with some advice on creating media arcs!
What is a media arc, you may ask? A miniarc or subplot that's based on media other than the Pokemon games. They have a long and storied history in WAAPT - mostly ones based on other video games, but movies and books and such have been used as well. As someone who's done two (Magic Mirror and Okamiquest) I felt I should help others by giving my advice. Here we go!
Step 1: Do your research!
You can't do a media arc without knowing the media in question, right? It's best if you experience the work you're adapting. Watch the movie, play the game, (Or watch a Let's Play) read the book. Even if you have before do it again so it's fresh in your mind. Take plenty of notes, maybe make an outline. It'll help!
