So in general, how will teams be decided? xD
In general, what I think would be appropriate/interesting.
Though, keep in mind, teams aren't necessarily permanent. It's entire possible, even probably that certain missions would call for certain combinations, and therefore, teams to be switched up.

And wouldn't a Moss rock, be likely more common in the 'Middle' zone? xD
More than likely, yes. Lucky you.

Approved.

Also, how much knowledge will the former humans retain? Will they know what the Pokemon species are called, how different fruits affect them, etc? Or are they just a completely blank slate?
The canon isn't explicitly clear on this, unfortunately, but it seems like the player character was at least vaguely familiar with most species.
I'd say that human characters retain basic knowledge about the world, including the names and types of most common Pokémon species, as well as some knowledge on more well known berries and other objects. That said, the player characters would recognize Kulero as an Alakazam but not Lugia as Lugia or Kyogre as Kyogre, for example. Likewise, they would recognize Oran Berries as Oran Berries and know they they have healing properties but not any artifacts or treasures.
Regarding Monaghan and any other non-human Pokémon that may eventually be created, I'll give you relevant information as the situation demands. If there's a fact or tidbit of information that I think that Monaghan should already know, I'll share it in private, state it here, or possibly state it the narrative.
If you end up in a situation where you're unsure whether it makes sense for your character to know something, just go ahead and ask.
We're now at 9 players, 10 once Geoffrey updates his sheet. That's plenty of players, I think, so I'll have the IC up on Wednesday afternoon.
