@TheForgottenArc@prettydrops

My latest post pushes the timeline along to later in the afternoon, because the only actions that you two seemed concerned with were searching for items and traveling to the next town. There are no new items in the western forested half of the route, and since the route is 12 hours long, that is why I pushed forward 6 hours.

There is a new item in the second half of the route, but first, I'm introducing the opportunity for a minor trainer battle. You will find the character sheet for this person (Sydney) in the "Minor NPC Characters" section that I've added right bellow "Major NPC Characters". Minor characters can be controlled by both of you as much as you like, as long as you are true to the information given in their character sheets.

If one of you choose to battle Sydney, I will introduce his Pokemon (he's not as strong as your rivals were). You can then either, ask for a showdown battle and risk loosing. Or you can just describe the battle IC and decide on your own whether you win or loose. Either way, all Pokemon that battle will gain 1 level.

@Balthazar007much appreciated! though I'll also have indigo probably catch a spewpa and explore for pokemon if you don't mind! love the npc though! would love if he could encourage indigo to keep his burmy and appreciate 'grosser' looking pokemon creatures as well.

The ball is in your court. I've created the character, and I can control him somewhat, but you can control him just as much since he's a minor character. You can control his actions, speach, and all that within your IC posts (just stay true to his character sheet).

The Scatterbug family (i.e. spewpa) is already listed in the route's description, so if you want one, simply write about Indigo's encounter with one and catch to your heart's content.

The only thing you NEED me for is exploring for new Pokemon and new items. Simply mention that Indigo is looking for Pokemon in an IC post, and I'll reveal a new Pokemon. And of course, when there are no more available Pokemon, I'll let you know.

Will post sometime tonight!

I can't really post much or anything at all today or tomorrow, Had some stuff happen and I need to be by a friend's side for a bit. I hope you two understand. I should be back to posting around Wednesday night.

Nice post.

FYI @TheForgottenArc, just because drops has started controlling Sydney, doesn't mean you cant. Minor characters are shared by all three of us.

@Balthazar007
Thank you, I am not sure what the quality of my post is gonna be. Current times are very stressful and I am not 100% atm.

@Balthazar007@prettydrops, I opted to not control Sydney at the moment as I don't think I can handle more than one character (With all the stuff going on writing Dan's part was hard enough.) IDK if what Dan found was his Notebook or just some random person. Y'all decide that. Sorry for the bad post and a bad attitude this week has been awful.

@TheForgottenArc it's alright. the notebook is inconsequential and i just put that there bc i couldn't think of anything else haha. im sorry you're going through a tough time. take your time. ill have indigo do stuff but i wont move the story around without ya.

@Balthazar007 i can't control sydney on my own completely either-- I can still post but it would help if you could control sydney sometimes too?? hopefully that's okay!

@TheForgottenArc We understand and sympathize with you, so don't be sorry about anything. You'll be okay in time. In the mean time, don't beat yourself up over rushed posts. Just do what you can, and it will work.

@prettydrops I'm thinking about my next post now. It should be up before I go to sleep.

@prettydrops

I pushed the story line along by the hour that you mentioned in your post. I also added Hoppip (as well as Ratatta) to the list of available Pokemon in this route. And obviously, Hoppip is the Pokemon that Indigo has found himself facing. There is still one more new Pokemon to be found on this route (at least for now).

If you don't mind, I would like Sydney to catch the Spewpa that he found.

Oooh hopip is adorable!! I don't know if indigo should catch one or not tbh lmao. And sure, sydney can catch that spewpa! Also Can indigo's pokemon level up??

@Balthazar007

Oh yeah, I forgot. Yes, his Pokemon may gain another level for training against wilds for an hour.

@Balthazar007 cook ty! Up dated uis stuff. Hope my post was okay!

If it isn't clear my battle is enough away that it wouldn't scare the Pokemon that Indy and Sydney are looking at. I hope my post is Okay and if it's not and you'd rather Dan be with Indy or Rattata isn't in that area I'll change my post.

Your post is all good. There are Rattata in the area.

Also, you may add one level to your Pokemon for the time they spent training.

@prettydrops
Oh, tiny problem with you last post. Not a huge deal, but Sydney only has one Pokemon (before catching Spewpa). In your post you mention him sending multiple Pokemon when you made him say, "Okay now, I'll need you guys to talk to that Spewpa...". Can you please edit your post to make that singular?

yep, absolutely! my bad!
