[OOC] Pokémon: Start

[PlatinumSkink]

Soooooo... About 10 hours ago, I hurt myself fairly badly. Don't worry, I was fine enough that I could come home from hospital within a couple hours, so I'm okay. Just can't support myself with one constantly hurting leg. Er. That aside. I'm still going to try to see if I can post tomorrow, because I can still sit and type just fine, but if I don't, I'm likely dealing with that. Just so you all know. Otherwise, have a nice week-end.

@PlatinumSkink

D:

Feel better soon, Platinum~

[PlatinumSkink]

There we go. That took a while.

@Joshua Tamashii Loads of Highhill for you. I threw a bit of story in there, just because. And... hah. Yeah. I'm going to have little twists with mostly every Gym. Dorians may be the most straight-forward one. Haha.

@Rune_Alchemist I did think of maybe I should write the visit to the Gym immediately, but... eh, I shouldn't assume. This'll do for now. I wrote a ton now.

@Pirouette You don't have to stay still like a statue during the whole scene taking place. If you want to interfere and cut it short somewhere to input your own action, tell me! That goes for everyone, really. But, yeah. I had a scene in mind. Haha.

@Eklispe@Pikmin Eye So, I had you walk by some Geodudes. It did occur to me that you might want to catch one, but I REALLY wanted to write the latter part. So, if you want one, feel free to state it and quick-catch one. Haha. ... Or, just tell me and I'll set it up so you can catch one normally. That works, too, sure. Hah.

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink Wow. A dragon sanctuary was unexpected but delightfully pleasant of a surprise! But I get the feeling that there is a strict no-catching policy here. But Erika will still ask about it.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Alright, nicely posted. I'm a little confused as to what you mean with "tradition for both gym leaders, unless it's only for the Minor Gym". It occurs to me that maybe you mean holding back, but, heh. Anyways. I like your descriptions. Now, then. Heading to Silent Shrine, are we? Well. Let's see what awaits us.

@Pirouette Teh-heh. I'm happy it's delightful. And yupp, feel free to ask. That's really the only way to find out for sure~ ... That and not ask and try capturing on your own. That'd also result in a definite answer immediately, but, eh, that's way less recommended. Hahahaha.

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

Oooohhh, I don't think Erika has the guts to run off and try capturing one after meeting Lesley. Anyway posted.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pirouette I know, it's just that as I was writing that I realized another way of finding out. Haha. Anyways.

Nicely posted. Yupp, that's a nice reaction. Now let's see how the rest goes. Haha.

@PlatinumSkink

She's basically noting that he didn't specify which gym the tradition was limited to and therefore she might encounter the Major League Gym Leader while she's at the shrine.

[Rune_Alchemist]

Alright, and done.

I am assume she got her pokemon healed without a hitch, so out to the Gym!~

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Um. I'm confused, so I'm going to have him also be confused. I mean, sure, just because it's the Highhill tradition that the Gym Leader is also the Shrine Maiden doesn't mean it isn't also the Pureplain tradition... but how likely is that? ... I did not think I'd ever have to imagine Dorian in a shrine-maiden outfit, yet now I have. ... Hah.

@Rune_Alchemist ... With one Pokémon, eh? *looks over Claire's party* ... Maaaaaaybe. XD

Anyways. Nicely posted. Gym up next. Good luck. Hahaha.

@PlatinumSkink

Doesn't each town have a major and a minor league gym? Or an I the one that's confused?

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Oh, no. I'm sorry. Each town has one Gym, which is either Minor or Major League. My apologies that I gave you the wrong impression somewhere.

[Joshua Tamashii]

@Joshua Tamashii Oh, no. I'm sorry. Each town has one Gym, which is either Minor or Major League. My apologies that I gave you the wrong impression somewhere.

@PlatinumSkink

No one said that, so assumptions were made

[PlatinumSkink]

I was bored, so have a post.

Oh, hey, it pretty much constantly rains on Route 3. I may have read quite a few Pokédex entries, but if you know of any other Pokémon that are specifically described as liking rainy or damp places, tell me, because they'll probably exist somewhere on Route 3. Haha.

@Joshua Tamashii Huh. Nowhere? ... Okay. Huh. Oh, well. Anyways. There's at least one ghost here. It's not the main attraction, but it's here. And after reading that Pokédex entry I felt it reasonable to put a sign there. Haha.

@Pirouette There you go. No need to worry. I think. Haha. Anyways.

@Rune_Alchemist As written, you can completely ignore this guy and just head into the Gym if you feel like it. Or listen to him + ask questions, if you'd like. But this time, I have a guide-guy. Haha.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Project@TheIrishJJ Okay, nicely posted. Took a little long, and I think I'll have me moderating battles be the standard in the future unless two players express desire to control everything themselves, but you're done, let's get you on your way!

Any OOC questions can be directed to me. Any IC questions can be directed to Kalmia. Otherwise, I'll let you loose on the world, now. Go for it. Haha.

[Mage]

@PlatinumSkink

Good. So now the adventure starts.

I'm quite free right now, so.. can I just go ahead and post again, or should I wait? Better avoid some speedposting even though I'm hella excited to get the whole catching business. xD

[PlatinumSkink]

@Project Just go for it. XD

I posted so quickly because I knew you were itching for it. Haha.

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink Ooh boy a new post!

And to answer your question, Goomy's love damp places. I'll try to think of some more.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pirouette Oh, nice. Despite having looked over encounters in Pokémon games in constantly rainy areas, I hadn't noticed that particular one. Thanks.

@Project I will mention that everyone has quick-catching privileges, it's just that nobody has used them. I explained that at some point in the past. But, okay, you're just going to go for WHATEVER you might find on Route 1, eh? Alright, then. Let's see how that goes. Teh-heh. Nicely posted.

Edit: Oh, BEFORE Route 1, alright.
