I think biome jumping to the rarest places should be gated behind a "Great" ME -- as much as it pains me, they need to feel somewhat unique.

Questions/Trying to get ahead of issues:

• What happens if I lend one of my Pokémon but have more than one selectable one?

• What happens if I lend one of my Pokémon and then fill the slot before I finish the biome?

• Can I roll the same biome I'm already in?

More complexity on the Event idea:

• Perhaps the machine could malfunction a little before you leave and have a wild Boss or Rare Boss pulled from the respective biome list. This way we can compensate a little for it being Great, but at the same time it serves as foreshadowing of the biome you'll be jumping to.

Added Art Request as I think we need a teleporter sprite.
