So I had a dream last night and it made a strong connection between two of my favorite fandoms: Jak and Daxter (which I played through about 1,000 times) and Pokemon (which I still play and GM role-plays for to this day).

It might seem weird to mix the two, but on closer look, I don't think it's weird at all. I always loved the unique environments in the Jak and Daxter games, and I think they go well with all the various Pokemon.

So my idea is this, if you have the Jak and Daxter trilogy at home and want an excuse to pick the game back up, I can give you a reason to do so. In this proposed RP, a mysterious force is brining Pokemon to the Jak and Daxter world. Your character will be a part of the new crimson guard, but they will be a part of a new division called the "Monster Hunters".

To play in this RP, all you have to do is tell me where your character is at and what they are doing. Then I'll say what Pokemon appears. Technically you don't even NEED to play the video game. You could play from memory. But it might enhance the experience.

What do you think?

That sounds amazing. How many people are you looking for?

Well, this RP is going to be played fast and loose, with a lot of it happening in Discord. So I won't set a limit until it starts feeling like too much for me to keep up with. Probably around 10 people.

I've been working on this. I should have something posted tomorrow.

How does society work? Is Daxter and those like him who existed before the universal merger considered pokemon or is there a differentiation between intelligent man-beasts and pokemon kind? Does he look at Pokemon as indentured servants, given his own predicament? Does Dark Eco play any significant role? Will there be original pokemon that better fit the new universe or are you planning on using the established roster for this game?

What incentive do the Jak and Daxter denizens have to collect and fight pokemon? Do you plan on having an NPC provide pokeballs, proliferate that technology and explain to society how pokemon culture works?

Will there be an overall story and antagonist or will this be more sandbox with players just finding and fighting pokemon every now and then with a Jak and Daxter scenic gimmick?
