Best of luck with your future endeavours!

Hmm... changing the OT of the Pokemon. In theory, sounds okay. Then you dwell deeper into the thought. (TL;DR at the bottom for those who hate long paragraphs) What does OT mean? Original Trainer and what does "Original" refer too? The one who first caught it. Even if that said individual sold/resold a Pokemon to you with full concent, once you replace the OT it would be like completely neglecting/decrediting the Original Trainer who spent countless hours/days/months trying to capture that specific Pokemon. Sure, it would make certain quests/events easier to do, but to what extend? If making something easier in a MMO is your soul purpose with this, then that is a -1 from me, if decrediting a user's work and making it your own and or making it look like you caught it, its a even heaver -1 from me. But I'm not entirely against it. Owning something fully is also a part of someone's intense desire, sadly not mine though, so I can't relate. Anyway... Let's dwell a little deeper into this... Making a non-subscription purchase for anything on PRO doesn't imprint your name on it does it? (I.e buying a Mount and then that Mount suddenly have the "OT" on it) Its weird and that's why games doesn't have such features. Also, owning a Pokemon for months/years as someone else's OT still doesn't make it yours, realistically speaking it would "still" remember their original trainer put into a realistic scenario. And after all... All you did was buying it, the fact that someone else put a lot of effort or got lucky still remains a fact, and that is what MMO is all about, even if you try to neglect it with PRO it still stands as a grindy MMO in my eyes and from personal experiences with the game. I feel that it is justified for a game to have such requirements in place, because it shows that money isn't everything. It also makes the game harder and it makes you want to continue playing and aiming for that well deserved reward. Neglect these requirements and everything about PRO would instantly be easier to complete. Just take the Rattata quest to enter Hoenn as an example, you need a level 80 OT Rattata, this would suddenly be a common service for veterans to sell to new players or even transfer between their alt(s) to complete regions easier. Its small things like this that would basically off-set the difficulity of things on PRO and eventually take the entire "Grindy" part away from quests/events/story/daily tasks. Yes, they may have "consented", but that still doesn't mean you can decredit their only source for someone to know who actually put effort into catching said Pokemon. As a content creator I wouldn't sell something to someone and then allow them to completely decredit all the work I put into it and make it look like they were the ones creating it. PRO is a MMO after all, it wants to keep you around playing for an indefinite time. And this means completing tasks on your own, not buying your way into completing quests/events/daily tasks etc. Otherwise it wouldn't be grindy and you would quickly be able to complete things that would normally take you a day or more grinding for. Then you need to play more MMO titles. Iirc Runescape had a ton of trading items that the owner could not use in quests because they were not the original owner. This is completely normal if a game is meant to be grindy, and not like one of those Pay2Win MMO titles that don't care about grind but about paying to progress. If PRO did implement this raw change without altering it, what would happen? It would completely decredit the work of the player who first caught it with no way of knowing who it was if someone was curious. Would make questing on PRO much easier. It would also with 100% certainty create a ton of new "services" that people would sell (i.e "Sinnoh's Daily News Reporter" where OT is required and caught within 24 hours) or services for OT pokes for quests/events and or mega stones/legendaries. It would quickly get out of hand and it would open up A LOT of oppertunities for new services since OT is a big part of the game's requirements. And please don't take this negatively, I'm just giving you constructive feedback. If you feel personally attacked, that was not my intention and I apologize in advance. TL;DR PRO is a MMO game and it is meant to be grindy. Taking away a Pokemon's OT is like decrediting the player who first caught it or making it look like you "caught" it. Furthermore it would create a lot of new "services" for quests/events/daily tasks that depends on OT as a requirement which could destablize the economy on PRO. I assume a lot of rework is needed to implement something like this. I'm not against this, but I'm not for this either.

Can't relate, spent 12 hours looking for a ghost - ehem I mean a Normal type Eevee. I guess PRO has lost their touch. But well, as the great Professor Oak once said:
