[OOC] Pokémon: Start

[Joshua Tamashii]

@PlatinumSkink Hey, you remembered my mention in the IC post this time around :P

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pirouette Teh-heh. Guess I can start writing that scene ahead of time.

@Joshua Tamashii SO I DID. ... Or more correctly, I SPELLED IT CORRECTLY THIS TIME AROUND. I BLAME RUNE, SHE MAKES ME WRITE UNDERSCORES INSTEAD OF SPACES.

[Joshua Tamashii]

@PlatinumSkink lol. By the way, when Amelia looked at a map to determine where to go, would the map have had the Silent Shrine on it?

@PlatinumSkink

Waaaah?

Don't blame me for you not paying attention, silly~

...And yea, I really should look into getting that fixed one of these days. On the old guild you couldn't have spaces in your name, I think, so that's sorta how this happened.

And...is that a badge Yvonne has?

Oh boy, Claire can't let herself be out done, nope.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Indeed, the Silent Shrine is on maps. ... As should the Silent Forest, which is really the entire area west of Highhill, north of Route 1, south of Route 11 that the river around Rainrock flows into. All of that is pretty much the Silent Forest. I should consider updating the map with that. Oh, well.

@Rune_Alchemist But I wouldn't be making that silly mistake of not paying attention if I hadn't gotten so used to writing your name with underscores right before Joshua's! XD

But yes, it's my fault, I am aware. Haha.

And yes. Yes, it is.

[Pirouette]

And...is that a badge Yvonne has?

Oh boy, Claire can't let herself be out done, nope.

@Rune_Alchemist

And if Claire earns a badge, Erika is going to feel like she needs a badge.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pyromaniacwolf Alright, nicely posted. You're heading back, the other two heads forward. @Eklispe@Pikmin Eye Just to check, but you're both alright with Lucian splitting off, or are you going to change your action because of this? ... And Pikmin, which two people are you wishing to catch up to? I must admit I got a little confused there. Oh, well.

@Joshua Tamashii Ooooh, so you're heading towards Silent Shrine... THROUGH the Silent Forest? ... Heh. Well. Alright, then. I will mention that the road to the Silent Shrine is from Highhill Town, that's the intended actually made route which is likely easier to navigate than just pushing on through sheer forest. You're going off the recommended routes on that one. Or did you intend on taking that route, just not entering Highhill Town? I think I want a little clarification. Regardless. Nicely posted.

[Joshua Tamashii]

@PlatinumSkink you simply said they were to the side, not past Highhill town, so I assumed they were before it.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii I'm a little bit confused. Anyways, here's the map I made. Bottom left.

Map with Routes

So, the Silent Shrine lies in the midst of the Silent Forest. You're currently on Route 1. The usual path to the Silent Shrine is from the small road breaking off from the bottom of Route 3. To get to the Silent Shrine from Route 1, you need to breach some of the roadless part of Silent Forest. Certainly doable and likely a lot wilder, but not as easy as taking the man-made road. Also, you might actually miss the shrine on that route, as you might lose track of how far you've gone within the forest. Well, um. Anyways.

@PlatinumSkink

okay, I misunderstood you then. Let me edit my post to reflect the routs better

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Alright, so heading to Highhill Town Gym instead. Alright. That works, too. I have something for that. Nicely posted.

@Rune_Alchemist *snicker* Thought you might react like that. I am amused. And I know exactly how Yvonne will react. Nicely posted. Haha.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Eklispe@Pikmin Eye@Pyromaniacwolf So, I'm going to operate on the assumption that nobody's going to complain about splitting up. Tell me if that's wrong. So, there, fast post because two of you have been waiting for a while. Now I have things I need to do. Have a nice day, everyone. Hah.

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

Darn. I missed a potential update.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pirouette Nope. I skipped Joshua and Rune there too. Because at that moment, those with no update for 9/7 days took priority and my day was busy enough already.

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

Oooh I see

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pirouette Alright, nicely posted. Climbing on up. Alright. Time to write that. I'll probably write something this week-end, I won't be too busy. Teh-heh, how the weights of Snorunts became relevant. Haha.

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

Thank ya! And yea, for once weight is actually a factor. I was surprised to see Snorunt to weigh 37 pounds and will have to keep an eye out for other ones.

[Eklispe]

Yeh i'm all good with the splitting and I assume Martin is still pursing Team Amethyst.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Eklispe Alright, nicely posted. So, I assume you mean the right path, then, the path that has someplace to walk next to a smaller passage of water? Yepp. It's not entirely dry, because of that alongside thing, but you don't have to wade at least. Haha.

[Eklispe]

Yeppo, the drier path rather than the dry path :<
