Possible Project: Victory Road & The Indigo Plateau

Okay, so I've thought about creating Victory Road (VR) and the Indigo Plateau (IP) from Pokemon, although I plan to use the FireRed version because it looks better. The project will not be on a 1:1 scale based on the games, as that would be both ridiculous and impossible simply because the exterior of the structures are disproportionate with their interiors (i.e. Small on the outside, huge on the inside).

The project will include:
Spoiler! :
Route 22
Route 23
Victory Road
The Indigo Plateau (which will include: The Pokemon Center, Pokemart, rooms for Lorelei, Bruno, Agatha, Lance, and The Champion's room).
Also, I feel it somewhat necessary to make Victory Road a more challenging puzzle, so any suggestions on this would be appreciated.
Since this idea is new, I have absolutely nothing done it terms of planning it out. I'm unsure as how to adjust the scale, nor am I sure if it will interfere with existing structures near/around PonyVile's current site. Due to the size and complexity of the project, and because it's location is to be determined, it is weeks/months away from any actual development. It would be great to hear what everyone has to say about the project, be it support for its creation or suggestions. As of right now, the most important subjects would be location, scale, and how to alter VR (I'm dead-set on having this built in Fyra by the way).

Also, here are some images from Bulbapedia for reference. First three are over image width limit, sorry. =/

This seems like a tremendous job, and I'd like to help if you're going to do this.

First of all, I think you should figure out what kind of material you'll use for each square.

And what about the Hall of Fame?

Material wise, it's going to be very colored wool intensive for IP. VR is mostly dirt and stone. For the most part, I want to leave it to everyone to decide on how the final product should look. Hall of Fame will be included, I'd forgotten about that room.

I'm assuming pine trees (grown with something above them to limit their height) will be used for trees?

EDIT: Never mind, pines trees only grow in snow biomes apparently

Not true, if you plant a pine sapling it will grow in any biome. Hell, putting it on a single block of dirt in the middle of a desert wouldn't be a problem.

Okay, so only naturally then.

I take back my former statement.
