Nice post, nice post. But my question for you is this, when do you want the IC day to resume. Still the same day, but just after nightfall? Or are you skipping all the way to the day of the festival?

Also, the temples and stuff would be closed if it's night time, but Margo could check them out "tomorrow". But yeah, there is plenty I can think to do if you're wanting a night time excursion.

@Balthazar007we can skip to tomorrow! I think the hike would probably tire indy and margo for the rest of the day anyways

I don't mind either way but after a 10 hour hike maybe taking one rest day isn't the worst idea in the world for the poor kids :P

We can wake up early tomorrow and go our separate ways--maybe Margo or Indy leaves earlier than the other and sends a text to the let the other know they're doing their own thing for now.

Indy can let Margo know what time the contest starts and she can meet back up with him just in time to go cheer him on.

Would that work ?

Works for me.

I'll make a post in the morning.

Alright, I made a quick post and changed the 1st IC post to reflect the new day.

PS: It's going to be a warm one out there, only 9am and already 78°F.

@iKatamalicious

That was a great IC post. I'm going to need to respond to it in the morning after I've had time to sleep on it.

@Balthazar007just wanted to make a quick training post. I was wondering... will indigo and margo have chances to teach their pokemon tm moves or move tutor moves? I'd love for his pokemon to learn some moves outside their typical level ups, just so I can really get creative with appeals. xD

You can buy TMs at Poke Marts in any location, but I'd rather you do this sparingly. I'm not going to set their prices or anything, but pretend they are quite expensive, especially the stronger, more desirable ones.

There will be a move tutor introduced at some point, one in each section of Septoh actually.

PS: I liked your training post. It was a fun read.

@prettydrops@iKatamalicious

At the moment, I'm going to let @iKatamalicious go next. I don't see a need to reply to that fun training post.

As a player, I hope you don't mind me talking about some of the things that I think would be fun!

Id love to turn move tutors into like quests or something interactive like that. I don't know if you've played zelda or breath of the wild, but doing little side or mini plots or missions to earn stuff like new moves or TMs would be fun!

Also, I was thinking about this... If there's a concern for pokemon knowing too many moves, maybe we could let pokemon learn however many moves they want to learn, but we could just pick four moves in battle to use? I could definitely see official league rules or something being a part of that. Or maybe its just that they only have the capacity to use four moves in battle until they've had a long rest or something? Im sort of getting my idea from dnd here, where they have something called spell slots.

(Essentially, spell slots refers to how many spells you can cast, sort of like the number of arrows in a quiver. Once you're out of spell slots you cannot cast spells from that specific spell level until you take a long rest.)

I guess I just wanted mention this because I really don't want a limit on moves we can learn, but I also realize how easily that can be abused. That said, id love if we could do something like movesets. I really think they could work!

I hope Im not coming off as rude or anything. I just wanted to be open and communicate about what I think would be engaging. Thank you for listening! :)

No offense taken.

For TMs I'd still rather have them available at Pokemarts, BUT you can earn TM vouchers from Gyms, Contests, and side quests. Indy beat Mbali back in shamba correct? That means, aside from money and a ribbon, he should have gotten a Grass TM voucher too, good for any grass-type TM at a Poke Mart.

As for move tutors, I like your idea. Move tutors will be more abundant and side quest exclusive.

I don't mind Pokemon knowing many moves. That's all up to you. Whatever feels most realistic.

I'll post soon! It'll probably be another training post. Im trying to practice my writing so I can paint a clear picture of the appeals xD

I've been rather absent lately too. I've been focusing on getting my first novel published through Amazon. Fingers crossed, I think I did everything correctly, and it should be available in a couple days.

And I just now added to the collaborative post we're working on through PMs.

@Balthazar007that is SO exciting! omg! :D Congratulations!! I also replied in PMs :] ALSO sorry for not posting an appeal yet. This week has been so crazy, I haven't had any chances to finish it up. It should be done by saturday night though >_<

It's all good. I'll reply to your PM now.
