Oh I see. This RP is the reboot of an older RP. Characters that already have Pokemon and stuff were transferred from the old one. Honest mistake. :)

Oh. I was aware of that, just confused by the fact that beginners seemed to have pokemon already so i figured it was the case(namely the one with the ghastly given the backstory). When I'm out of college I'll fix it up.

Oh yeah. I see. @dimitri's character, with the Ghastly, has not been approved for that exact reason. Check the 0th "OOC" post and 0th "Characters" post. There you will find all users and trainers that have been approved and marked as active.

Alright, I've made the necessary changes(I think.) Should be good for review now, thanks for helping me patch that up! :)

Your latest revision is on point. Please, feel free to post it to the 'Characters' tab and begin posting IC as soon as you like. I'll put you in the 0th OOC and Characters posts as soon as you get you character sheet moved over.

Thanks!

Aside from posting as my character, today I did two things.

1) I added some new battle items into the "Item Registry".

2) I updated the Poke Mart inventories in "Central City" & "Ironforge".

ALSO, I would like to ask everyone a question. Would you mind if I took out the entire system that is currently in place for creating items. I'll keep the "Poke Corp's R&D Division" organization, but that won't have to be the only way to make new items. It will only be a means to get discounts and do other unique things (such as finding Fossils).

Instead, as GM, I'll just continuously update the registry with new items. You all can just PM me with item requests. This would put a little more work on me, but could make the RP less confusing.

What do you all think?

@Balthazar007 Sounds like a plan to me. You could add a note saying that people could "feel free to suggest ideas for items" and help you outline them.

Alright Everybody


I've spent a lot of time on this RP today. Here's what got done.

1) I now make all the items, and put them directly into the "Item Registry". Simply PM me if you want to see a new item added. These changes effected the hiders at the bottom of the 0th OOC post as well as the Research & Development Organization.

2) I updated the hider covering Pokemon tiers to include info on "Silvally / Type: Null" Pokemon line and Ultra Beasts. (Manual > Pokemon > Tiers)

3) I added a new "Special Building" to the "Location Information" hider in the 0th IC post. This is the addition of a safari zone.

4) Finally, I updated and reorganized the "Item Registry" There is still a long way to go there, but I'm done for today. Let me know if you want me to focus on a specific genre of items next time.

Thanks Everyone!

@LuckyBlackCat

Hey, you made a mistake that actually works out in your favor once fixed. You have two 'hatched' Pokemon. Two of your characters have one in their party. Therefore those baby Pokemon grow 6 levels (not just 3). Here's a quote from the manual on Pokemon breeding:


  • "So why the trouble?", you may ask. For starters, the Pokemon may use moves that only transfer through breeding. We ignore the "who the parent was" catch. But that's not the main reason you'd want to hatch a Pokemon. Pokemon hatched gain levels at double the rate as other Pokemon (this does not apply to Rare Candy). Make sure to mark any Pokemon that have been hatched so that you remember to double their level earnings.
  • Also, make sure that you subtract a regular Pokeball from your inventory as soon as you can. Otherwise you will have to carry or walk with the new baby Pokemon. And the Pokemon misses out on healing effects of Pokeballs. You could use other beginner level Pokeballs to hold your baby Pokemon, but the effects of those balls will be negated.

Heyo guys, sorry for not posting as I've been rather busy with College and babysitting my younger family members. Being as I've got some free time now, I've got some questions given that I'm quite dumb at reading the context within this RP given my track record so far. :(

1. Do we just choose what pokemon we catch at the beginning given the events, or do we have to get that approved from a mod?

2. With the GMing, is it continuous or is it more like only a response if we're talking to a NPC or participating in something rather than re-affirming an event that has been created by us e.g a Pokemon capture.

Good questions.

1) Your fist Pokemon can be any tier 4 Pokemon that's type is covered by your location. You do not need GM approval to catch Pokemon. First, go to the 0th IC post and click on the location where your trainer is located; that will take you to the location's IC posting so you can see Pokemon types found there. Second, make sure you have read and understood, two important hiders within the manual that is found in the 0th OOC post:

  • Manual > Honor System
  • Manual > Pokemon > Tiers


2) I am very hands off within the IC section. All NPCs are shared by the players. You control your staff interactions at Poke Marts/Centers; you control the wild Pokemon; you control by-standards on the street; you control the bad guys. The only thing you CANNOT do is speak for another user controlled character. Within the IC section, I am just another user that plays by the rules.

Any more questions? :)

Hey, do you think you could PM me a good but short description of all the major plot points that happened in the old thread? I want to add it into the 0th OOC post in the Chapter Summary hider. That will help new users and myself get a better understanding of the big picture thus far.

Alright Everyone!


I have finished adding practically every single item that is available in Pokemon Showdown into our RP. That means that every single "Battle Item" that will exist is now available (at least until a new generation of Pokemon are added). If you are a location owner, you might want to look through the newly updated "Item Registry" and update your Poke Mart(s) accordingly.

Remember, if it doesn't have a price, it cannot be found in a Poke Mart.

I still have a few ideas for new General Items and Special Items, but that's for another day. If you have any suggestions on possible new general items or special items, let me know. If you have any comments on the ones currently in place, also let me know. I sort of threw everything up in a hurry, they could be modified.
