[OOC] Pokemon: Eclipse

[37 Cockatiels]

Whenever we decide the region I can post a general plot, map, and link to bulbapedia to help with everyone's research.

[Illusion]

Well a personal preference of mine has always been Hoenn, but I can definitely work with any other region.

Also I don't think we've heard from Xeron lately. We should definitely find out if he's still able to participate in this RP. If anything, you could re-open this for a couple of others to join as well.

[37 Cockatiels]

He PMed me and sounded excited about this, I'm sure he can. I sent both of you the same message, so we'll see if he gets back to us soon.

And sure, we can do Hoenn.

[37 Cockatiels]

I was gonna have my character be from another region btw, maybe Unova bc that was my first game.

Also, original Hoenn or Alpha/Omega Hoenn?

[Illusion]

Well both are the same for the most part but probably ORAS since it's a recent version.

[37 Cockatiels]

Ok, I was just wondering if mega evolutions were a thing

[Illusion]

Oh yeah in that case I think mega evolutions are cool. Do you have a plot in mind for this RP?

[37 Cockatiels]

Not really tbh. I was thinking something happens and a bad guy team steals pokemon from the people in a town, and a group of strangers get together to go rescue the pokemon?

[Illusion]

Hey, that sounds like a good plot to me. Seems like the best way to get a group together.

[Xeron]

Hi! Sorry, I have been engulfed in work and stuff recently and then the drop of Pokémon Go I have not been inside hardly at all lately. I was out until 2 in the morning last night looking for pokemon. It's crazy. But no, I am still here! And wanting to partake! I suppose.. I could write up a thing, post it here, and then you guys could tell me if it's good or not? I dunno. I was also thinking of the trainers having a class like they do in game. Sorta like a lass or psychic or juggler or something? I have a psychic character I have been itching to use. So it kinda is unified I suppose. You don't have to catch or have that type of pokemon according to your class of course, but it would give them a trait already. Also, quick question, the ages. Are we going to go older, or are we going to stick with the set 13-16 that are canon?

[37 Cockatiels]

@Xeron, I totally understand, man. We can do the whole class thing if your character has any special ability I guess? Do we want to have full teams of 6 pokemon? Or just 3 or what?
I wanted my character to be a traveler from like Unova or something idk. That age range works for her though, so it's good with me.

[37 Cockatiels]

Also, if you want to make reference pictures for the characters, I make all of mine on rinmarugames.com and their avatar creators are really good. I'll be using a pic I made with one of their games as my reference picture. We should also include a list of pokemon on the profiles

[Xeron]

Well kinda. He's got telekinesis for now and is on the younger side. I feel like the amount of pokemon should be personal. Like I'll have three pokemon since my character is yoUnger and stuff. But I will try to see if they have a profile, if not I have a very detailed description of him.

[37 Cockatiels]

Ok, that makes sense. I'll probably post my profile later. Do we want a standard format for the profile?

[Xeron]

Yeah. Lets have it be a simple outline of sorts.
Name, Age, Trainer Class, Physical Description, Personality, Background, and Pokémon.
Does that sound okay? That way we can be as detailed as need be or whatever.

Also, for the meeting spot, I feel like the city of Rustboro would be a good place for an event to happen. It's the first gym and kinda big and stuff. So there is a valid reason they would be there.

[37 Cockatiels]

Ok, sounds good to me. Sure, let's post a map and link under characters, I think it'll be easier to find then.

[Xeron]

I am about done with my Character thing. I also added a small touch that if you guys wanna do I won't stop you, to each of my pokemon I am giving a short desc. of how they met, their personalities and nicknames. I dunno, I feel it adds a more personal touch. You don't have to (either of you) but I am. -shrugs- I am also giving mention to any pokemon my character left at home since he is from Kanto. Sorta like.. a PC except they are just with his parents, so he has them at his beck and call if needed for some reason. I like to think really far ahead, lol.

[Xeron]

@37 Cockatiels
I finished my sheet, should I post it in the characters tab?

[Illusion]

Hey guys, I'm away at my cousin's house until Friday so I won't have very much time to start on my CS. I apologize in advance on delaying my character but I'll definitely have it done in a couple of days.

[Xeron]

That's fine! No need to rush or anything, friend.
