Pokémon Mafia

This is an idea that has been rolling around in my head as a Mini Theme. I don't qualify to mod, though.

Semi-Open 13 Players: 9 Trainers (Townies), 2 Team Flare (Arsonists), 2 Team Rocket's (Mafia)

Each Trainer is given a random number from 1 to 13. This decides their role.
1. Pokémon Trainer (Vanilla)
2. Pokémon Trainer (Vanilla)
3. Pokémon Trainer (Vanilla)
4. Pokémon Trainer (Vanilla)
5. Pokémon Trainer (Vanilla)
6. Pokémon Trainer (Vanilla)
7. Pokémon Trainer (Vanilla)
8. Pokémon Master (Vigilante)
9. Nurse Joy (Doctor)
10. Nurse Joy (Doctor)
11. Officer Jenny (Cop)
12. Captain Aidan (Firefighter)
13. Captain Aidan (Firefighter)

Each Team Rocket is given a random number from 1 to 4. This decides their role.
1. Jessie (Goon)
2. James (Goon)
3. Meowth (Roleblocker)
4. Giovanni (Godfather)
Note that if there is no Officer Jenny, Giovanni is a Named Goon.

Each player chooses one Pokémon that is water, fire, or grass type. The exact Pokémon doesn't affect gameplay, just it's type. They PM that Pokémon to the mod.
Once all players have chosen a Pokémon, each player's Pokémon is announced. Grass type Pokémon votes count as two against water and one half against fire. Fire type Pokémon votes count as two against grass type and one half against water. Water type Pokémon count as two against fire and one half against grass. There is no evolution

What do you guys think?

Drop the godfather for a two-shot strongman, add a goon to the team rocket selection and one more mafia instead of the survivor.
Survivor claims start of day 1, if there is more than one lynch them until only the survivor or no survivor claims survive. No one will counterclaim and the survivor does nothing all game.

You were right, guaranteed survivor is broken. I'm not sure about the other ones though.

Multiball is awful in minis. It gets way too swingy too fast depending on if crosskills happen.
I don't have anything to put here because my normal signature is images. Weeeeee.

The setup could be adjusted, of course. I did it the way I did so everyone could seethe theme names. You could change it however you like if you were the mod. You could even make it a large theme game and add a third scum faction: Team Plasma.
